Introduction To Day Trading For Beginners
src: www.digitaledge.org

In business, the trading day or regular trading hours (RTH) is the time span that a particular stock exchange is open. For example, the New York Stock Exchange is, as of 2015, open from 9:30 AM Eastern Time to 4:00 PM Eastern Time. Trading days are usually Monday to Friday. When a trading day ends, all share trading ends and is frozen in time until the next trading day begins. There are several other special circumstances which would lead to a shortened trading day, or no trading day at all, such as on holidays.

The NYSE and NASDAQ average about 252 trading days a year. This is from 365.25(days on average per year) * 5/7(proportion work days per week) = 260.89 - 9(holidays) = 251.89 ~ 252. The holidays are New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Washington's Birthday, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day. Up to three trading days (the days surrounding Independence Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas Day) are shortened, i.e. the exchanges are open from 9:30AM-1:00PM, depending on where they fall in the calendar year.

Trading Day Time Zones

Each Stock Exchange has opening hours that are based on specific time zones. People can trade in these exchanges remotely using electronic trading platforms. For those trading in different parts of the world, there are unique Trading Days based on the hours associated with any given time zone. For example, NASDAQ is open 9:30-16:00 ET and anyone outside of the Eastern Standard time zone will have a different Trading Day. The Trading Day for a person in Vancouver would be 6:30-13:00. During the part of the year when the US is on Standard time, in it would be 17:30-24:00 in Moscow, and in Shanghai it would be 22:30-5:00. Remote traders should find their trading hours based on the Stock Exchange hours and time zone.
