MARKET AND TRADING HOURS IN BULGARIAN TIME ZONE
Many investors start their journey by trading the most commonly known shares. Suppose an investor in the Middle East wakes up, reads financial news and learns that an X Stock that trades in the US has increased by 20%. This investor then wants to jump in, open the investment app he just signed up with, and search for the stock. Unfortunately, the app tells him that he can only submit orders and wait to buy them immediately when trying to invest. So, the investor can't invest in every financial instrument at any given time.
Different instruments have different opening and closing times, depending on the asset class and the exchange where the asset trades, while some contracts expire at specific dates.
Market events affect some exchanges' opening and closing hours. Below, you will find detailed tables explaining market hours and events for the time zone in Bulgaria. We encourage you to familiarise yourself with relevant trading hours. You should note that a break in trading can result in a gap between closing and opening prices.
