Australian market open time in GMT
The Australian Stock Exchange in Sydney opens at 10:00 a.m. and closes at 4:00 p.m. (AEST). In GMT, the Australian Stock Exchange opens at midnight (summer) and closes at 6 a.m. (GMT).
The Australian stock market, specifically the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), typically operates from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST). However, we must account for the time difference to convert this to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
Australia’s Eastern Standard Time is generally 10 hours ahead of GMT. Therefore, the market hours in GMT would be:
- Open: 10:00 AM AEST is 12:00 AM GMT
- Close: 4:00 PM AEST is 6:00 AM GMT
Keep in mind that during daylight saving time, the difference might vary. Australia observes daylight saving from the first Sunday in October to the first Sunday in April. The time difference between AEST and GMT is 11 hours during this period. So, the market hours in GMT during daylight saving would be:
- Open: 10:00 AM AEDT is 11:00 PM GMT (previous day)
- Close: 4:00 PM AEDT is 5:00 AM GMT
