Closing Trades: Key Cutoff Times and Holiday Considerations

Learn the cutoff times for closing trades and special rules for agricultural markets.

Updated over a month ago

All trades must be closed by 4:59 PM ET. For agricultural markets, trades need to be closed earlier. Check the specific market details for early closures.

Some markets also wrap up their day before 5:00 PM ET, and certain markets may close early on holidays. Be sure to review the holiday calendar for up-to-date information.

Trading reopens at 6:00 PM ET, so you can start placing trades again after the brief break.

For important dates and to stay updated on trading schedules, make sure to check the CME Group Holiday Calendar. This will help you plan your trades around market holidays and closures effectively.
