Trading Hours Schedule Changes: US Daylight Saving Time

February 25, 2026 13:08

Calendar on a blue background, white text reads "US Daylight Saving March 2026".

Dear Traders,  

We'd like to inform you that between March 8 and March 29, 2026, there will be a temporary adjustment in the trading schedule.   

This change is due to the Daylight Savings Time difference in the US, which will cause daily trading breaks to shift back by one hour. This means that the trading sessions will open and close one hour earlier than usual.   

The adjustment is necessary as the US switches to Summer Daylight Saving Time three weeks earlier than Europe does. It's important to note that the Forex trading opening hours on Monday, March 9 (at 00:05 EET), will remain unaffected. However, please be aware that the trading session will end at 22:59 EET on Friday, March 13, March 20, and March 27.   

Additionally, the opening hours on Monday (March 9, March 16, and March 23) for Metals CFDs and US Market CFDs (Shares, Indices, Commodities, Agricultures, and US Treasury Note CFDs) will also be shifted back by one hour. This change will also impact CFD Indices Germany 40, FTSE100, ASX200 night breaks.   

All the times given are in Eastern European Time (EET=GMT+2), which is the Meta Trader 4/5 platform’s time.  

Please keep in mind that the indicated trading hours are subject to change by their respective exchanges or liquidity providers. These changes may also affect any applicable pre-close terms.  

Kind regards,  

Admirals
