Market Hours
The Daily Break is a recess in trading. Positions cannot be opened or closed during this time. However, orders can be set to be executed when markets reopen.
Please note that trading hours are subject to change based on available liquidity. Should the underlying market close ahead of time or the liquidity be deficient, we may delay market opening or disable trading for the affected instruments.
Please note that these hours differ from the exchange’s trading hours, meaning you will not be able to open or close trades outside of eToro’s specified trading hours.
Extended hours trading
Stocks are moving even when the market is closed. Extended-hours trading allows you to trade before the market opens and after it closes. Never miss a trade!
