Market Hours Countdown

About

Never miss a market open or close again.

Market Hours by E8 shows a live countdown directly on your Chrome toolbar — so you always know exactly how long until the next open or close of the market you care about. Click the icon to see a clean overview of every major global trading session with live local hours and status.

━━━  WHAT YOU SEE  ━━━

• Live countdown badge on the toolbar icon (42m, 3h, 2d — updates every 30 seconds)
• Green when the market is open, red when closed
• Full popup with every enabled market: local trading hours, current local time, live countdown, and open/closed status
• A "Start Trading" shortcut to jump straight to your E8 account
