For time-sensitive trading, always check official Nasdaq notices and broker rules, especially around early closes and extended-hours sessions.

Nasdaq holidays vs. regular trading hours

A full holiday closure means the regular Nasdaq session is closed. An early close means the market opens on a shortened schedule and closes before the usual 4:00 PM ET close.

Pre-market and after-hours activity should be treated separately from the regular session. Liquidity, eligible symbols, and available order types can differ by broker.

Nasdaq early close days in 2026

Nasdaq is scheduled to close its regular session at 1:00 PM ET on November 27 and December 24, 2026. July 3 is an observed Independence Day full closure, not a shortened session.

After-hours access and order deadlines around early closes depend on the broker and trading venue.
