From the NYSE’s holiday calendar. The exchange can add a closure, as it does for national days of mourning; its own notice is final.

What changes for crypto

Bitcoin and every other coin trade on as usual. What stops is everything tied to US stock market hours: spot bitcoin and ether ETFs do not trade, so there are no ETF flows for the day, and shares of crypto companies and tokenized versions of US stocks that track them wait for the next session.

With fewer large traders at their desks, order books can be thinner, and a big order can move the price further than it would on a normal weekday. Long weekends, when a Monday or Friday holiday joins a weekend, stretch that quiet spell to three days.

Questions people ask

Yes. Crypto exchanges trade around the clock every day of the year. What stops is the US stock market, and with it trading in spot bitcoin and ether ETFs, so no ETF flows are reported for that day.

With US equities shut, fewer large traders are active and liquidity can be thinner, so prices can move further on less volume. ETF inflows and outflows, which many traders follow daily, pause until the next session.

At 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time, three hours earlier than usual. That is 18:00 UTC in winter.

Yes, the two exchanges follow the same holiday calendar. Bond markets keep a separate schedule and can close early on days when stocks trade normally.

Other release dates

CPI, FOMC, token unlocks and options expiries are on the crypto calendar.
