Permitted Times to Trade

All positions must be closed by 4:45 PM EST Monday through Friday. Lucid Trading will automatically close open positions at 4:45 PM EST, however holding a position at this time will NOT result in a failed account.
​

Trading can resume when the market reopens at 6:00 PM EST Sunday through Thursday. Additionally, on holidays when the market closes at different times, all positions must still be closed before the market closes.

Swing trading is permitted in our LucidLive Accounts. Which means live traders have the ability to hold past 4:45 PM EST and through the maintenance window into the following session, so long as margin requirements are met. However, we can still set an auto liquidate feature on any live trader’s account who still wants their position closed before the maintenance window. Handling these features will be discussed during your LucidLive onboarding process.
