As Daylight Saving Time (DST) ends, trading hours will shift accordingly as clocks move back by one hour in various regions. Here’s when DST ends and how it will impact trading times.
End of Daylight Saving Time
Clocks go back one hour when daylight saving time ends.
| Territory | Daylight Saving Times |
| Europe & UK | Sunday, 27 October 2024 at 2:00 am GMT Clocks are turned backward 1 hour to Sunday, 27 October, 1:00 am GMT instead |
| USA | Sunday, 3 November 2024, 2:00 am EDT Clocks are turned backward 1 hour to Sunday, 3 November 2024, 1:00 am EST |
Note: Brazil does not observe daylight saving.
Changes to Trading Times
Between 27 October and 3 November 2024, the end of DST in Europe and the USA will cause temporary changes to trading hours for various instruments. After this period, regular trading hours will resume for all instruments, except those tied to Brazil.
The trading server times will also shift from GMT+3 back to GMT+2.
