I just found out that the Thai stock market doesn't open at 10:00 AM! The pre-open period starts at 9:30 AM, and the opening time is randomly set between 9:55 and 10:00 AM. This means that the actual trading hours are not the same every day.
Someone said that during this opening period, the prices are the most volatile because there are pending orders from yesterday and news that come out at the same time. If you want to catch the right moment, you need to know the exact trading times. Morning trading is from 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM, and afternoon trading is from 2:30 PM to 4:30 PM. The market closes at 4:40 PM.
Fast traders who speculate quickly have the advantage. They understand the trading times and the market opening and closing periods well. If you want to trade stocks yourself, you need to understand these details thoroughly first.
