26 Degrees Expands Trading Hours for US Equity and ETF CFDs

26 Degrees Global Markets has extended its trading hours for US Equity and ETF CFDs, enabling traders to access the US markets for up to 16 hours a day. Previously, trading was limited to 6.5 hours per day, but the new schedule now includes access to both the pre-market and post-market sessions.

This extension is designed to offer traders, particularly those in Asia, greater flexibility and new opportunities in the US market. The service will be powered by the Cboe One Feed, a data feed from the Cboe exchange network, which consolidates market data from various US equities exchanges, providing real-time and cost-effective data.

Gavin White, Group CEO of 26 Degrees, commented on the launch: "We were one of the first Prime of Primes to launch Equity CFDs via API to brokers back in 2019, and now, by significantly expanding trading hours in US markets, we're providing brokers with greater flexibility, enhanced liquidity, and more opportunities to serve both new and existing clients."

Adam Inzirillo, Global Head of Cboe Data Vantage, also highlighted the importance of this collaboration: "We are pleased to provide their clients with access to the Cboe One Feed, which provides high-quality and real-time U.S. equity market data and supports 26 Degrees and Cboe's shared commitment to innovation and client-centric solutions."
