FESX trades between 8am and 8pm CET. That would be 2am to 2pm EST.

2am to 2pm EST most of the time, remember the daylight saving times are not identical on both side of the Atlantic.

Thanks Sam, true but isn't the duration of that difference just a couple of weeks or so? I think after that they're back in sync, aren't they?

Correct but this can be a big problem if you're in this case (oops, overnight so higher margin for example).

FESX trades from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM CET.

During 49 weeks this would be 2:00 AM EST to 4:00 PM EST.

However, during the third and fourth weeks in March and the first week in November (please look up daylight savings schedules for exact dates), this would be 3:00 AM to 5:00 PM EST.

When charting FESX, best use a trading hours template in CET.

Memory playing tricks on me. You're right, of course.
