How come the Dow Jones doent open until 2.30 but you can trade Wall Street from 8.15 in the morning?
 
Because it is based on the futures which are open almost 24 hours a day between Sunday evening and Friday Evening.
 
as sidinuk says...
00:15 - 17:00 US Eastern time +
20:40 - 23:50
are the hours for dow futures, but s&p and nas100 futures cover most of the gaps making it possible to guestimate what the dow future should be doing in between
