FTMO’s Scheduled Adjustments: Enhancing Your Trading Journey

Embrace the Time Shift: Daylight Saving Adjustments

As the days grow shorter and the evenings lengthen, Ftmo is diligently preparing for the upcoming Daylight Saving Time adjustment on March 5, 2024. To ensure a seamless transition, we will implement strategic schedule modifications to keep your trading experience on track.

Trading Platform Pause: A Brief Respite

On March 5, 2024, trading platforms will take a momentary pause for 2 hours, commencing at 8:00 am GMT+3. This brief interruption is designed to accommodate the adjustment of the MetaTrader platform time by one hour backward, ensuring that your trading activities remain synchronized with the changing time.

EU Shares Trading Hours: Adapting to the New Schedule

Following the time adjustment, trading hours for EU shares will undergo a shift to 10:00 – 18:30 GMT+2. This modification is intended to align with the revised timekeeping, allowing you to continue trading your preferred instruments without disruption.
