FXTRADING.com trading-server time follows the US daylight-saving schedule across all current trading platforms, including MT4, MT5, web-based trading platforms and the FXTRADING.com App. When US daylight saving starts on the second Sunday of March at 02:00 US local standard time, our server offset changes from GMT+2 to GMT+3; local clocks move forward to 03:00. When it ends on the first Sunday of November at 02:00 US local daylight time, our server offset changes from GMT+3 to GMT+2; local clocks move back to 01:00. These are US local clock times, not the trading-server clock display. To convert the switch to another location's time, the relevant US time zone and destination time zone are needed. Check the server time displayed in the trading platform to confirm which offset is active now. Trading sessions depend on the instrument and may change for holidays, maintenance or market adjustments.

How do I check trading hours?
In Web Trader:
Select or activate the complete visible symbol in the Instruments panel or symbol tabs.
Select Information.
Review the Quote and Transaction rows shown for each weekday.
The market-status indicator can also show the current open or closed state, local reopen time and countdown. Use the current weekday schedule and status shown for the selected symbol; sessions can change for holidays, maintenance or market adjustments.
In MT4:
Open Market Watch in the connected MT4 or MT5 desktop platform. Find the complete instrument name, including any suffix.
Right-click that instrument and choose Specification.
In the lower part of the specification window, review the quoting and trading sessions for each weekday.
In MT5:
Open Market Watch in the connected MT4 or MT5 desktop platform. Find the complete instrument name, including any suffix.
Right-click that instrument and choose Specification.
In the lower part of the specification window, review the quoting and trading sessions for each weekday.
Quoting sessions describe when prices can be supplied; trading sessions describe the configured times for trading. Receiving a quote does not by itself mean that an order can be accepted or executed. Check the correct instrument and server, and distinguish server time from your local time. Holidays, maintenance or changes to the instrument’s trading conditions can affect the schedule.
