STARTRADER has announced another 48 US stock CFDs for extended-hours trading from 20 October. The new list includes Robinhood, Reddit, CrowdStrike, ServiceNow and Uber, expanding the broker’s derivative coverage of individual shares beyond regular US exchange sessions.[1]
This is a distinct batch from the 48 contracts introduced on 13 October, whose list included Alphabet, BlackRock, Nike and Shopify. The two notices describe successive additions, rather than conflicting launch dates for the same group of instruments.[2]
Sessions for the 20 October contracts
| Day | Trading window: GMT+3 server time |
|---|---|
| Monday | 03:00–23:59 |
| Tuesday–Thursday | 00:01–23:59 |
| Friday | 00:01–23:55 |
The specifications give these contracts ten-times leverage, a contract size of one and order sizes from 0.1 to 1,500 lots. The .24H symbol suffix identifies the extended-hours instruments; the timetable still has weekday breaks and a Friday close.[1]
A separate 20 October system notice gives a daily maintenance window of 23:30–01:00 GMT+3, with actual work typically taking five to ten minutes. It applies to all trading platforms and the app, and can temporarily prevent opening, closing or modifying orders. The window therefore does not mean a continuous 90-minute daily suspension, but it qualifies the apparent availability in the session table.[3]
These instruments are CFDs, giving exposure to a share’s price without ownership of the underlying stock. The broker’s trading clock consequently describes access to its derivatives, rather than an extension of a US exchange’s cash-equity session. STARTRADER allocates customers to entities according to location; its website excludes US residents, and the group announcement does not establish universal availability through every entity.[4]
