How the SSE–HKEX overlap is calculated

The overlap is the intersection of each exchange’s regular trading session after converting both to Hong Kong Time. In this timezone, SSE runs 17:30–23:00 and HKEX runs 17:30–00:00, so both are open together from 09:30 to 15:00 — 5h 30m of shared trading time.

Weekends are excluded, and any full-day holiday or early close on either side shrinks the window for that date. Use the two holiday calendars below before planning a session that relies on the overlap, and check the live open/closed status if you need the current figure rather than the scheduled one.
