The bar shows venue hours on a Moscow-time day; the marker shows the current moment. Status refreshes every 30 seconds.

How the calculator works

venue status = local weekday + local trading interval

display time = venue time converted to the selected reference zone

The tool presents reference windows in the selected time context. Market holidays, daylight-saving transitions and venue-specific hours can alter the practical schedule.

Fees, funding, spread, slippage, contract specifications and venue rules can change the realised result. Recheck those details before placing an order.

Inputs to check before calculating

Inputs

  • Current date and local time zone.
  • Market or venue being traded.
  • Holiday and daylight-saving status.
  • Instrument-specific trading breaks.
  1. Enter values from the instrument and account you are evaluating.
  2. Run the calculation and check its units and assumptions.
  3. Compare the estimate with the venue contract, fees and risk rules.

Result: A planning estimate based only on the entered assumptions, not a trade recommendation.

Frequently asked questions

Are trading-session hours fixed throughout the year?

Not always. Daylight-saving changes, holidays and venue rules can shift the local-time window, so current hours should be verified.

Does the calculator place or recommend a trade?

No. It performs a planning calculation from the values you enter. It does not connect to an account, execute an order or provide personalised advice.

Calculator results are estimates for planning and education. Verify contract specifications, fees and rules with your broker or exchange.
