does the DAX have "day" hours?

on esignal's site, it lists the trading hours for the dax futures as 08:50am - 08:00pm (local time).

of this time period, is there a duration of time considered the day session? kind of like the ES 9:30-4:15 trading time in usa.

thanks

No. There is no night session in the dax. It's open from 9am cet till 8 pm cet.

What i think is important to know is, that the underlying (Xetra-DAX) is open from 9am till 5:30pm only. After 5:30pm there is quoted a so called "Late-Dax" (L-Dax), but this L-Dax isn`t that meaningful as there are hardly big changes after 5:30pm.

Happy trading!
 
After 5h30pm cet, Dax will follow US very closely. Bure, sure, moves in the last / last and an half hour won't happen often because at that time, US traders are at lunch.

The DAX doesn't have day hours.

The DAX only has death hours. :mad: :D


My god, check out what I saw today, on the ESTX50 tape! (Attached below)

Remember the $250M man, selling some 5,000 odd cars in one go on the ES, a few months ago?

So, CME prides itself with its new 400 per clip?

EUREX does that in one line! Check this out for a print! All sold on one tick LOL!

The exact commitment value of that transaction at that time was USD 250,060,415.81

This is at an exchange rate of US$ 1.2639 to the Euro X underlying contract value (2826) X 7001.

Looks like another, probably American, 250M transaction! I tell ya - It's the same guy ...

It's the 250-Million-Dollar-Man! :D
