24/7 market
A market that never closes: it is open every hour of every day, even at weekends, like crypto.
The fuller meaning
A market that trades continuously, 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, with no official open or close, as crypto does across many venues. Charts rarely show true gaps, tools that reset each session need a chosen start time (often midnight UTC), and big moves can come while other markets are shut.
24/7 market, also called 24/7.
