This is the third time this week this question has appeared - each time in a different thread. Second time today in the same forum. Doesn't anybody use the search function anymore?

Nah, I think the bonds close early but not the NYSE or Nasdaq.

Do these people really not realize that there are websites for exchange that contain the answers to such questions? Or are they just being lazy and expecting us to do their (trivial) homework for them? I can only suggest that we stop answering them with anything other than "RTFM".

Not that they couldn't be found easily with any search engine, but here's a list of most markets that matter, courtesy of IB. At the top of each page is a link to the market's website: http://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/trading/products.php?ib_entity=llc

For a guy that finds himself "hitting a ceiling with respect to how much he can pull out of the market," I'm amazed at the quoted post. The guy makes $2000, $5000 or $10,000 a day "without difficulty," but doesn't know where to look to find out if the market is open?

Not only is Market closed Monday but -- fyi
according to Stock Traders Almanac the market has been down 13 of the past 14 yrs on the Fri before Presidents Day (which is tomorrow (trading-wise not time wise, lol).

PS - Spydertrader makes a great point about this posting
