To answer the main question of this post, trading 24 hours a day is really never a good idea. The more you trade, the greater the risk. However, it is important that you understand when the markets are open in a 24-hour cycle. This requires an understanding of the 24-hour time format. Working with 24-hour time formats can be confusing. Nearly all trading platform use this format. Most people in the U.S. are accustomed to regular time, which observes counting to twelve twice a day. In comparison, a 24-hour clock starts at midnight and stops just before midnight the next day. If you have ever seen a time such as 22:54 and wanted to know how to convert it to regular time (10:54 p.m.), this post is for you.
If you want to learn how to read 24-hour time quicker, or you for some reason want to start trading 24 hours, consider changing your smartphone’s time format or using a wristwatch that displays both formats.
