- End of session: 08:10 (UTC+2)

- Beginning of second session: 07:30 (UTC+2)

- End of second session: 22:00 (UTC+2)

Australian Stock Exchange Shares:

TeleTrade notes that traders working with Australian assets, particularly the AUS200 index and shares on the ASX, should be aware of these adjustments to avoid disruption to their trading activity. In addition, traders should exercise caution during, especially during changes to trading schedules due to daylight saving time.

The broker also noted that there may be additional changes to trading schedules that may occur without prior notice. As market conditions may change unexpectedly, traders are advised to remain vigilant and closely monitor any future updates to avoid unforeseen losses.
