Overnight trading of all S&P 500®, Nasdaq-100® stocks and hundreds of ETFs is now available to all Schwab clients via the thinkorswim® platform suite

 Hong Kong was Fifth Highest Source of Overnight Trading Activity in Pilot Period

HONG KONG, Feb. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Charles Schwab, a leader in investing and trading with US$10.10 trillion in total client assets that facilitates approximately six million daily average trades, today announced the launch of broad access to an expanded range of securities in the overnight trading session following a series of successful pilots at the end of 2024. Now, all Schwab clients can trade an expanded list of securities including the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 stocks and hundreds of additional exchange-traded funds (ETFs) 24 hours a day, five days a week (24/5), via the thinkorswim platform suite.

Ameritrade, which was acquired by Schwab in 2020, pioneered 24/5 trading in 2018 as the first U.S. retail broker-dealer to make it available to traders, offering approximately two dozen ETFs in the overnight trading session. Schwab began piloting expanded overnight access with a small group of clients in November 2024 and has gradually expanded the reach in the intervening months in preparation for broad availability. During the pilot period, Hong Kong was the fifth most popular region to engage in overnight trading, following markets such as the U.S., Mainland China and Taiwan.

"We are proud to have a long legacy as overnight trading pioneers and that we continue to evolve and enhance our capabilities and platforms today," said Isabella Chan, Director, Business Development, at Charles Schwab Hong Kong. "Schwab facilitates about two times the trades each day of any competitor that reports that figure publicly, so we know that it's a significant milestone not just for Schwab but for our industry as we expand access to overnight trading to our millions of clients. We have worked hard to combine the power of our world-class trading platforms, specialized 24-hour service and support, and tailored education to deliver a trading experience that balances the unique dynamics and potential risks of the overnight session while empowering clients to trade in the ways and during the hours that, particularly for our clients in Asia, may suit them and their lifestyle best."

Insights from Schwab's recent 24/5 expansion pilot

During the expanded 24/5 pilot period, which ran from November 2024 through January 2025 beginning with a small group of clients and grew in phases, the most active trading hours of the overnight session were the first and last, between 8-9pm ET and 3-4am ET. The stocks Schwab clients most actively bought, sold, or both during the overnight session pilot were:

• Tesla Inc. (TSLA)
• NVIDIA Corp. (NVDA)
• Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR)
• MicroStrategy Inc. (MSTR)
• Advanced Micro Devices (AMD)

Schwab clients may access expanded 24/5 trading by selecting the EXTO order type for eligible securities on the thinkorswim trading platforms. Visit our website to learn more about trading platforms at Schwab.
