Finally, no more "waiting to die" on weekends: Let's talk about the experience of 7x24 trading in the US stock market.
In the past, when trading US stocks, the worst fear was unexpected events over the weekend.
I remember last month when Trump made headlines about Greenland, I was out with friends enjoying skewers. My phone buzzed, and US stock futures plummeted instantly. I was so tense I could have snapped my chopsticks; my Tesla position wasn't hedged yet, but the exchange had already closed for the day. That feeling is something every trader understands—just watching helplessly as the market opens on Monday and gets "gapped" out. The market never sleeps, but your account is forced into hibernation.
However, starting from February 7, this pain point has been completely resolved.
Bitget launched a 7x24 hour stock contract, perfectly synchronized with cryptocurrency trading. If Powell sneezes at 2 AM, I can just roll over and close my position; if Trump makes a favorable statement on Sunday night, I can immediately jump in. This "breathing feeling" is crucial; trading is no longer locked in a cage from 10:30 PM to 4:30 AM. Wherever the news flows, my actions can follow.
Many might ask: What if prices fluctuate wildly when the market is closed on weekends?
I looked into their ±3% limit. Simply put, it anchors the price within a 3% fluctuation above and below the index price. Even if liquidity is low at midnight, it won't crash like some junk altcoins with a few large orders. It's like putting a bridle on a wild horse: you have the freedom to run 24 hours, but you won't fall off a cliff.
This weekend, I plan to put it to the test:
Recently, the Nasdaq has been dropping sharply, and leading stocks like #NVDA are in correction. In the past, I could only wait for Monday's opening to "catch falling knives" or "chase the drop," but now the initiative is back in my hands. On Saturday morning, while having coffee, if I see geopolitical turmoil, I can directly open a short position; if the situation eases on Sunday, I can immediately take profits and reverse.
7x24 trading for me is not about staying up late, but about regaining "decision-making power."
With the stock contract championship currently ongoing, this weekend happens to be the launch of new features. While others are paused, I can trade, naturally gaining two extra days of operational window. I plan to start with a small amount to test the waters: "scalping" between big drops and rebounds to make a quick profit. This kind of "time arbitrage" is something knowledgeable traders understand.
In the past, we Asian retail investors could only follow New York's schedule, waiting for the market to open even if the sky fell. Now, I can hedge weekend risks while snuggled in bed. On February 7, I’ll take the plunge; feel free to join in. 🧐
