Just In:  New Symbols on the Robinhood 24 Hour Market

Robinhood is the only US retail brokerage to offer 24/5 trading of single name stocks

At Robinhood, we believe the future of investing is 24/7. That’s why we launched the Robinhood 24 Hour Market last year, to give our customers unprecedented flexibility and access to the markets. Today, we’re excited to  announce that we’ve expanded the total number of symbols available overnight in the US to 922. You can view the full list of available stocks and ETFs here. 

Using 24 Hour Market, people can place limit orders to buy whole shares of some of the most traded ETFs and individual stocks 24 hours a day, five days a week. 24 Hour Market lets customers invest when they want, on their schedule. Trading hours run from 8:00 pm ET on Sunday to 8:00 pm ET on Friday.
