What Is the 24-Hour Market on Pluang?
The 24-Hour Market is a Pluang feature that lets you trade eligible US Stocks and ETFs outside Regular Market hours, so buying and selling is no longer confined to the window when NYSE and NASDAQ are open. Instead of a single trading session per day, the feature strings four consecutive sessions together — Overnight, Pre-Market, Regular Market, and Post-Market — into a continuous weekday cycle. Only stocks marked with a "24" symbol in the Pluang app are eligible, which is a narrower list than the full catalogue available during Regular Market hours. Within the extended sessions the feature accepts Limit Orders only, and every order placed there is classified as a DAY order, meaning it stays open until the next trading day rather than carrying over indefinitely. The feature does not run on weekends or on US exchange holidays.

Q: Does "24-Hour Market" mean I can trade at literally any time?
Not quite. The feature runs around the clock on weekdays, but not on weekends and not on US exchange holidays, when no session runs at all. So it is a continuous weekday cycle rather than a genuinely never-closing market, and the stock you want must also carry the "24" marking in the app before it can be traded at all in the extended sessions.
Q: Is the 24-Hour Market a separate product I have to sign up for?
No. It is a feature of the existing US Stocks product on Pluang rather than a separate account or subscription. Eligible stocks are simply tradeable across a wider set of sessions, using the same balance, the same portfolio, and the same account. There is nothing to activate, enable, or apply for before you place your first order in one of the extended sessions.
Q: What are the four sessions inside the 24-Hour Market?
Overnight, Pre-Market, Regular Market, and Post-Market, running back to back through each weekday. The Regular Market session is the familiar NYSE and NASDAQ trading window, and the other three are the extended sessions wrapped around it. Order rules differ between the two groups: the extended sessions accept Limit Orders with DAY validity only, while the Regular Market session accepts every order type with either DAY or GTC validity.
Q: Can every US stock on Pluang be traded in the 24-Hour Market?
No. Only stocks carrying the "24" symbol in the app are eligible for the extended sessions. The Regular Market session inside the same weekly window still covers the full range of US Stocks and ETFs available on Pluang, so a stock without the marking is still perfectly tradeable — it is simply limited to Regular Market hours rather than the wider weekday cycle.
