Futures Market Activity

The futures market, particularly CME Group's S&P 500 and NASDAQ 100 futures, operates nearly 24 hours a day, offering high liquidity even when other markets slow down. Unlike ETF markets, which see a significant drop in volume after 4 p.m., futures allow trading opportunities at any hour, catering to a global audience and providing flexibility for investors. This continuous activity can create numerous trading prospects for those looking to diversify their investments. The constant availability of futures contrasts sharply with other markets, which are limited by standard trading hours.
