Summary

MEMX is shaking things up by starting its pre-market trading session way earlier—at 4 a.m. Eastern Time instead of 7 a.m. This change gives traders more time to buy and sell before the regular market opens, potentially boosting trading opportunities and market action. If you trade on MEMX, get ready for an earlier start and more chances to make moves before the day officially begins!

MEMX Pre-Market Starts at 4:00 a.m.

If you trade on MEMX, the exchange's pre-market session will begin at 4:00 a.m. Eastern Time instead of 7:00 a.m. Eastern Time. The Exchange filed the rule change on February 25, 2025 and the SEC designated it operative upon filing, so the earlier start is effective immediately. This gives traders three more hours of pre-market trading before the regular market opens.
