Background
In conjunction with the scheduled release of Arrowhead 4.0 on November 5, 2024, TSE has decided to change the closing time of its trading hours from the current 15:00 to 15:30. In response to this change, Japannext will also be changing the trading hours of both the daytime and nighttime sessions to ensure the smooth operation of our PTS.
Summary of Change
For the Daytime Session, we will maintain one hour of post-closing trading opportunity even after the TSE's closing time is changed to 15:30. As such, the closing time for our J-Market (Daytime Session), X-Market, and U-Market will be changed to 16:30.
J-Market（Daytime Session） X-Market・U-Market
Before Change: Closing time 16:00
After Change: Closing time 16:30
Furthermore, for the Daytime Session:
"End of trading" event will be at 16:30 instead of 16:00.
System will go down and all sessions will be disconnected at 17:00 instead of 16:30.
End-of-Day files will be delivered by 18:30 instead of 18:00.
Closing time for Margin Orders will be at 15:30 instead of 15:00. (tentative, pending approval)
For the Nighttime Session, following the TSE's extended trading hours, the Osaka Exchange will change the start time of Nikkei 225 futures trading from 16:30 to 17:00. Accordingly, we will also change the start time of J-Market (Nighttime Session) trading from 16:30 to 17:00.
