Can Pluang Agentic Trading trade outside regular market hours (e.g. for US Stocks)?

Whether Pluang Agentic Trading can trade outside market hours depends entirely on the asset class: crypto orders can go through Pluang Agentic Trading at any time, any day, because crypto markets run 24/7 with no exchange open or close schedule, but US Stocks orders are bound by the exact same standard US exchange trading hours that apply to manual trading — the agent cannot execute a US Stocks order while the exchange is closed. On Pluang, the US Stocks regular market runs 21:30–04:00 WIB (20:30–03:00 WIB during US Daylight Saving Time), Monday through Friday, and is closed on weekends and US public exchange holidays. Indonesian Stocks are bound by the IDX calendar in the same way, trading in two sessions a day — 09:00–12:00 and 13:30–15:49 WIB Monday to Thursday, with shorter Friday sessions — and an Indonesian Stocks order placed through the agent can only carry Day or Session validity. Manual trading on Pluang already has limited outside-hours mechanisms — a 24-Hour Market session for stocks tagged "24" in the app, and queued "Pending Market Orders" that wait for the next open. The agent follows the same market-hours rule as manual trading — check the app or your agent's response for how it handles a request placed while the market is closed.

• Crypto — no restriction: Crypto markets never close, so an AI agent connected via Pluang Agentic Trading can check prices and place crypto buy/sell orders 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends and public holidays. There is no "market closed" state for crypto on Pluang.
• US Stocks — same exchange hours as manual trading: The agent doesn't get special access outside the exchange's own schedule. Pluang's US Stocks regular market hours are:
• Standard time: 21:30–04:00 WIB
• US Daylight Saving Time (DST): 20:30–03:00 WIB (DST runs roughly the second week of March to the first week of November, per the US schedule)
• Closed: Saturdays, Sundays, and US public exchange holidays
• Indonesian Stocks — same IDX sessions as manual trading: The agent can only trade Indonesian Stocks while the IDX is actually in session, across two windows a day (WIB):
• Session I: 09:00–12:00 Mon–Thu, 09:00–11:30 Friday
• Session II: 13:30–15:49 Mon–Thu, 13:30–14:00 Friday
• Closed: weekends and IDX holidays; the pre-opening and post-closing windows are not open for order entry either
• Orders the agent places on Indonesian Stocks carry Day or Session validity only — the agent cannot use the GTC validity available in the Pluang app.
• Existing outside-hours options for manual trading: Pluang's US Stocks product already has two mechanisms that extend beyond the regular session for manual traders — a 24-Hour Market (via BlueOcean Technologies) covering Overnight, Pre-Market, Regular, and Post-Market sessions for stocks specifically tagged "24" in the app (Limit orders only, DAY validity, no take-profit/stop-loss), and a "Pending Market Order" queue, where a Market Order submitted while the exchange is closed is held and executed at the prevailing price once the market reopens rather than being rejected outright.

Q: Can I place a crypto order through Pluang Agentic Trading in the middle of the night or on a weekend?
Yes. Crypto markets trade 24/7 with no daily close and no weekend pause, so a connected AI agent can check crypto prices and place buy or sell crypto orders at any time, any day of the week, with no market-hours restriction at all — unlike US Stocks.

Q: What are the exact US Stocks market hours my AI agent has to follow?
The same hours that apply to manual US Stocks trading on Pluang: 21:30–04:00 WIB during standard time, or 20:30–03:00 WIB during US Daylight Saving Time (roughly second week of March to first week of November). The market is closed on weekends and US public exchange holidays regardless of DST.

Q: What are the Indonesian Stocks trading hours my agent has to follow?
The same IDX sessions that apply to manual trading — 09:00–12:00 and 13:30–15:49 WIB Monday to Thursday, with Friday running 09:00–11:30 and 13:30–14:00. The exchange is closed on weekends and IDX holidays, and an order your agent places can only carry Day or Session validity.

Q: Does Pluang have any way to trade US Stocks outside those regular hours at all?
Yes, for manual traders — a 24-Hour Market session (via BlueOcean Technologies) is available for stocks specifically tagged "24" in the app, covering Overnight, Pre-Market, Regular, and Post-Market windows, Limit orders only. The agent follows the same market-hours rules as manual trading, so check the app or your agent's response to see how it handles the 24-Hour Market for a specific order.

Q: What happens if I ask my AI agent to buy a US stock while the market is closed?
The agent follows the same market-hours rule as manual trading — check the app or your agent's response to see how it handles your request while the market is closed.

Q: Does the outside-hours rule also apply when I just ask my agent to check prices or my portfolio, not place a trade?
No. Checking your portfolio, wallet balance, or current prices through Pluang Agentic Trading is a read-only action, not an order — it's available 24/7 for both crypto and US Stocks. The market-hours restriction only applies to actually executing a US Stocks trade, not to looking up information.
