What Are the Best Times to Trade?

In my opinion, the morning is ultimately the best time to trade. My most profitable trades come from the morning rush. When I day trade stock options, I typically trade the first 30 minutes. Trading the trends and pull backs on the three and five minute time frames.

Best time of day to trade.
Power Hour, from 9:30 am - 10:30 am Eastern time period is often one of the best hours of the day for day traders, offering the biggest moves in the shortest amount of time. Many pro day traders stop trading around 11:30 am, because that's when volatility and volume tend to taper off. That's also when the London Stock Exchange closes.


The following is a list of rush hours in the stock market:
Rush hours
9:30–9:40 am Stocks that open higher or lower than they closed typically continue rising or falling for the first five to 10 minutes…
9:40–10:00 am …before reversing course for the next 20 minutes—unless the overnight news was especially significant.
10:00 am In either case, you should know by this time whether the opening trend will hold or reverse itself.
3:00–4:00 am While price trends can break either way in the opening hour, they tend to build consensus in the closing hour—barring big news during the trading day.

A move like that would push Tesla's market capitalization, now $567 billion, to over $2 trillion. Only one other US-listed company - Apple - has passed that number. The Loup Ventures cofounder said Tesla would evolve over the next few years to become more than just a car company. "They're really going to take their tech that they're defining and pioneering with auto and applying it to new markets," he said. "Elon has recently said that there's 30% to 40% of the value of the car could be in insurance," Munster said. "What that means is that they can start offering their own insurance and improve margins. That's high-margin revenue. Not to mention everything they're doing around over-the-air updates with autonomy and what they can even do around HVAC." Munster also pointed to flying tax...
