Capital.com Announces Extension of Trading Hours

Fazzaco learned that Capital.com, European trading and investing platform, has announced extending its trading hours to allow pre-market and after-hours trading on its platform.

According to official announcement, clients of the platform can now trade derivatives on popular securities between 04:10 to 20:00 EST, outside of the traditional trading hours of 9:30 to 16:00 EST.

Extending the trading hours is meant to permit clients to trade at more convenient and flexible times. In addition, it will help them react quickly to news and events before the normal trading day starts.

Commenting on the announcement, Jonathan Squires, CEO, Capital.com, said: “By extending Capital.com’s trading hours, we can offer our clients greater flexibility, enabling them to take advantage of more opportunities. Experienced traders can use the extended trading hours to quickly respond to the latest events, announcements and reports published before the market opens or after its close.”

Earlier this month, Fazzaco reported it announced its growth results​ for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021, showing a 78% jump in total trading volume.
