Which markets require early trade closures?

Understand which markets close earlier than 4:59 PM ET to avoid liquidation risks.

Updated over a week ago

Certain markets, especially agricultural ones (Ags), close earlier than 4:59 PM ET. Some close as early as 2:05 PM ET, while others might close around 2:20 PM ET. Make sure to close your trades at least one minute before the market's closing time to avoid unexpected liquidation.

While open positions and attached orders are automatically canceled after 4:59 PM ET, you must manually cancel orders in markets that close earlier.

Check the chart for specific instrument closing times and ensure timely closures.
