Why dont we just run the markets 24-7
Answer it would trade so much on emotion its not funny. After close people have time to recollect days trade and identify where the next day will take us.
Trading 24-7 we would see very little trade as sellers and buyers would be exhausted after a certain number of hours.
Just my two cents.
