Dalian Commodity Exchange Sets 2026 National Day Holiday Trading Schedule

Holiday schedules are routine, but for commodity markets they matter because a full week of closure leaves positions exposed to global price moves without a domestic venue to hedge or exit. The pre-holiday night session cancellation and the October 8 call auction are the practical pressure points, concentrating liquidity into narrower windows. Whether participants trim exposure ahead of the break — and how the reopen auction clears against accumulated overseas moves — is the open question.
