Webull Corporation ("Webull"), the owner of a US trading platform and a technology-driven financial services firm, has announced the introduction of a 24-Hour stock trading feature for its customers in Malaysia. This development aims to broaden Malaysian access to US markets, following Webull's recent entry into the Malaysian market in May 2024.

Expanded Trading Hours

Previously, Malaysian retail investors using Webull's platform could only trade US stocks and ETFs during regular and extended trading hours. However, with the launch of this new feature, trading will now be available both during and outside of these hours, including a newly introduced US overnight trading session.

In addition to expanded trading hours, investors will continue to benefit from several key features, such as zero commissions for the first 180 days, no platform fees, and the ability to purchase Fractional Shares starting from as little as USD$5.

Moreover, users will have access to free real-time market data for both Malaysian and US markets, along with an array of 17+ chart tools and 58+ technical indicators. The feature aims to facilitate trading in popular individual securities and ETFs such as Tesla, Nvidia, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, and SPY ETFs, among others.

Kenneth Chan, CEO, Webull Malaysia, said, " This feature will enable effortless trading in the US markets during Malaysian hours, effectively bridging the time zone gap. Since launching our business, we have noticed a significant interest in both Bursa Malaysia and US market trading."

"By enabling around-the-clock access, we lower the barriers to entry and continue our commitment to making trading accessible and affordable for all retail investors."

24-Hour Trading for US Stocks in Australia

Meanwhile, Webull has expanded in Australia, offering 24-hour trading of US equities and ETFs, as reported by Finance Magnates. Initially covering over 60 stocks and ETFs including Tesla, Nvidia, and SPY, the service addresses challenges of US market hours for Australian traders.

CEO Rob Talevski highlighted the opportunity to engage in global markets seamlessly, leveraging out-of-hours trading events and market developments. Webull aims to further expand internationally and is pursuing entry into South Korea's stock trading sector pending regulatory approval.
