Retail traders all over the world are showing increasing interest in the US stock market, which operates on ET – commonly considered the peak trading period, according to Anthony Denier, Group President & US CEO at Webull.
“However, global news and events can occur at any time, driving market movements and fueling trading ideas, strategies, and opportunities,” he told Traders Magazine.
Today, Webull, announced the launch of Overnight Trading, powered by Blue Ocean ATS to expand trading hours for its users in the United States.
“By offering Overnight Trading, Webull is giving users the flexibility to trade on their own schedule, free from the constraints of regular market hours or pre- and post-market sessions,” commented Denier.
“This expanded access allows traders to seize opportunities whenever they arise, regardless of time zone,” he added.
The 24/5 Overnight Trading session will operate from 8:00 pm to 4:00 am ET Sunday through Thursday, giving users the opportunity to trade in and out of U.S. stock and ETF positions during the overnight session.
“As of now, Overnight Trading is available for stock and ETF trades,” Denier said.
As investors increasingly seek the flexibility to trade around the clock, Webull has partnered with Blue Ocean Technologies to offer Overnight Trading, providing their clients with the ability to trade whenever opportunities arise.
Not only can users react to market movements overnight, but they can also respond to timely events outside of regular, pre, and post-market sessions.
Whether it be company earnings, breaking news, or international market activity, users can respond quickly to market developments and be proactive about their investments.
According to Denier, this partnership empowers our customers to make well-informed trading decisions and capitalize on opportunities outside of regular market hours.
“With Overnight Trading, they can now seamlessly trade in and out of positions during overnight market movements, ensuring they never miss a chance to act when markets shift,” he commented.
Webull Corporation, headquartered in St. Petersburg, Florida, operates in 15 regions globally and is backed by private equity investors located in the United States, Europe and Asia.
Webull serves 20 million registered users globally, providing retail investors with 24/7 access to global financial markets.
Webull currently offers level one overnight market data free of charge, with the ability to subscribe to more in-depth data packages. 500+ symbols are now available, with the goal to continue expanding the available security list.
“Webull has always prioritized listening to our clients, continuously striving to provide innovative trading solutions for our expanding retail investor community,” Denier said.
“This new offering is a direct result of that commitment—ensuring our clients have the tools and flexibility they need to make informed, effective investment decisions,” he added.
