Stock trading session? - what is it, how long does it last?
Hi. Could someone explain to me in plain language what a stock trading session is? Generally speaking, it seems to me to be the time period from opening to closing. Is it really so? Am I wrong? Thanks

A trading session is a period of time that corresponds to the basic trading hours of the day for a given exchange. This expression refers to different hours depending on the markets and locations in question. Typically, a single business day in the local financial market, from the market opening bell to the closing bell, is a trading session that the individual trader or investor will refer to. The forex, futures, stock and bond markets have different characteristics that determine their trading sessions on any given day, and the basic trading hours naturally vary from country to country depending on time zones.
