This is nuts. Extending the hours makes more sense but 24 hour exchange is just insanity and the only ones who will generally benefits are hedges/banks with tons of servers and algos working around the clock
Feel like that is part of the point. Much more difficult for banks to get in on it during a regular 9-5 day then it is 24/5 where retail investors are asleep
how can a hedge fund with several billions profit from low volume hours. if they would profit from this, we already had a 24 market. Big guys hate low volume environment. because they are the ones who can't react with their millions of shares, while small retail trades can get in and out quickly.
Think your actually describing the disadvantage of retail investors vs banks/hedges in your case. Big guys generally stand to benefit more then the retail investor in this enviroment since lower amount of market activity means they can generally position themselves better then a retail investor can
