When the stock exchange is open: Xetra (Frankfurt) 9:00–17:30. US exchanges (NYSE, Nasdaq) 15:30–22:00 German time. Closed at weekends.
Shares and ETFs can only be bought and sold during the trading hours of the respective exchange.
Important trading hours (German time):
• Xetra (Frankfurt): Mon–Fri 9:00–17:30 (main trading venue in Germany)
• Tradegate: Mon–Fri 8:00–22:00 (longer hours, popular with private investors)
• NYSE / Nasdaq (USA): Mon–Fri 15:30–22:00 (German time)
• Tokyo (Japan): Mon–Fri 1:00–7:00 (German time)
Tip for ETF savings plan purchases: savings plans are usually executed in the morning (Xetra hours). Outside trading hours, spreads (the difference between buying and selling price) are wider – you pay more.
Did you know? The most important trading window: 15:30–17:30 German time, when Xetra and the US exchanges are open at the same time. Volume is highest during this overlap.
