Daylight saving time ends in Europe on Sunday, 25 October 2026, and in the US one week later, on Sunday, 1 November 2026. Because the two regions switch on different dates, there is a one-week window in which some markets open and close at different times than usual.
To help you plan your trading, here is a clear overview of what changes on the Traders Trust MT4 and MT5 platforms, what stays the same, and when standard trading hours resume.
Transition week: 26 October – 1 November 2026
During this week, TTCM server time remains at GMT+3:00. Most markets keep their usual schedule; only European CFD products shift by one hour.
| Product group | Trading hours (server time) |
|---|---|
| Forex | Opens normally at 00:00 |
| US indices | Open normally |
| Energies | Open normally |
| Metals | Open normally |
| Shares | Open normally |
| European CFD products | Open and close one hour later |
| Cryptocurrencies and 24/7 products | Not affected |
From 1 November 2026: standard hours resume
On 1 November 2026, TTCM server time changes to GMT+2:00, in line with the end of daylight saving time in the US. From that date, standard trading hours apply again across all products.
Please note that end of day (EOD) on MT4 and MT5 remains at 23:59 server time throughout the transition.
Planning ahead
A few simple checks will help you trade smoothly through the change:
- Review any open positions and pending orders on European CFD products before 26 October.
- Adjust any trading routines, alerts or Expert Advisors that rely on fixed session times.
- Check the contract specifications in your MT4/MT5 terminal for the latest session details on each instrument.
