    I thought it would be completely closed Thurs 27th and just start at 6am ET on Friday (this is how they do it for xmas, new year's etc?

    But anyway, does it mean that after 1030 CT trading halt, you cannot trade ES or will it be the "light blue" thing like in the pre-opening cross stuff?

    Thanks! sorry for beinga noob lol : )
