What is this?
Overnight holding allows you to maintain open positions past the daily market close (typically 5 PM ET for futures). Your position stays open through the overnight session when liquidity is typically lower.
Why does it matter?
Many trading strategies require holding positions overnight to capture multi-day moves. Firms that require you to flatten before the close force an intraday-only approach, which may not suit your trading style or edge.
