Would any of you welcome such an option at your broker? 🤔

It's hard to say and it would probably be a matter of habit. However, it would probably stress me out quite a bit while I was sleeping and I wouldn't be able to keep track of what was going on, so I'm happy with it that way.

Somehow I don't understand this, how will they trade when the market is otherwise closed, will they just somehow within the platform?

I think it's not good - traders won't sleep and people who are in the business will be stressed.

I'd prefer to keep it "the old way". I'm fine with having a set time to trade, and then do other things.

Isn't Robinhood the "problem" broker? I haven't followed it much but I've heard something.

So, since I try to sleep at night, and I'm happy to at least have peace at night, I'm not that worried. I see it as an advantage for countries where investors and traders want to be on the US stock exchanges, but unfortunately the US stock exchanges are only open at night. So they can buy and sell during their daytime hours.

How does it work when the markets are closed? So who are you actually trading with?

Considering my strategy, I almost don't care 🤷‍♂️ But for traders, I guess it will have its advantages right? What are the specifics then? I assume the volumes are ap significantly smaller, no?
