Trading Hours
Markets trade electronically, opening at
6:00 PM, prevailing time in New York and closing at 5:15
PM New York time the next day, Sundays through Fridays –
the same as the NYMEX trading hours. Singapore is 13
hours ahead of standard time in New York and Dubai is 9
hours ahead. The time difference is reduced by one hour
when Daylight Savings Time is in effect in New York.
Neither Dubai nor Singapore observe Daylight Savings
Time. Settlement
A daily settlement price is published by the DME at
4:30 PM Singapore time.
The DME also publish a "post close" price at 2:30
PM in New York, which coincides with the close of the
NYMEX trading floor. The DME post-close price is
used by Clearing Members and the Exchange to calculate
the daily initial and variation margins on all NYMEX and
DME contracts.
