Major US stocks available for trading include Apple, Tesla, and NVIDIA.
Trading platforms, including eToro, Robinhood, Schwab, Sterling Trading Tech, and Webull, now offer 24/5 U.S. stock access.
IG, a UK-based trading and investing platform, has launched
24/5 trading on 110 US stocks. The move allows UK investors to trade outside
standard US market hours.
Trading is now available from 1am Monday to 10pm Friday.
Major stocks such as Apple, Tesla, and NVIDIA are included. Previously, IG
clients could access US stocks for up to 16 hours daily, from 9am to 1am.
Separately, IG Securities, the Japanese arm of IG Group, has
introduced 24-hour trading for U.S. stock CFDs.
US Stock Trading Expanded Across Online Platforms
Several trading platforms have recently expanded U.S. stock
trading to 24/5 access, allowing investors to trade outside standard market
hours. Earlier, Robinhood
launched its “24 Hour Market” service, enabling U.S. retail investors to
trade beyond regular hours.

“We want to give our UK customers the best possible access
to global markets so that they can invest and trade easily at their own
convenience,” said Michael Healy, UK Managing Director at IG.
The extended hours let investors react to earnings
announcements, economic data, and other market-moving news. The 24/5 offering
covers both traditional investing and leveraged trading.
“With round-the-clock trading during the week, UK investors now
have more of a level playing field with their US peers when it comes to the
world’s most traded stocks,” Healy added.
This launch follows other product expansions from IG,
including the addition of cryptocurrencies and commission-free stock investing
earlier this year.

investment.
Separately, IG
has introduced daily options on Tesla shares. The contracts expire the same
day, allowing traders to open and close positions within a single session. This
is the first product of its kind globally for an individual stock.

Executive Interview | Charlotte Bullock | Chief Product Officer, Bank of London | FMLS:25
In this interview, we sat down with Charlotte Bullock, Head of Product at The Bank of London, previously at SAP and now shaping product at one of the sector’s most ambitious new banking players.
Charlotte reflects on the Summit so far and talks about the culture inside fintech banks today. We look at the pressures that come with scaling, and how firms can hold onto the nimble approach that made them stand out early on.
We also cover the state of payments ahead of her appearance on the payments roundtable: the blockages financial firms face, the areas that still need fixing, and what a realistic solution looks like in 2026.

In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.

In this conversation, we speak with Aydin Bonabi, CEO and co-founder of Surveill, a firm focused on fraud detection and AI-driven compliance tools for financial institutions.
We start with Aydin’s view of the Summit and the challenges brokers face as fraud tactics grow more complex. He explains how firms can stay ahead through real-time signals, data patterns, and early-stage detection.
We also talk about AI training and why compliance teams often struggle to keep models accurate, fair, and aligned with regulatory expectations.

He closes with a clear message: fraud is scaling, and so must the tools that stop it.
