Cboe Exchange, Inc. has proposed a change to its rules to allow certain index options, known as expiring non-Volatility A.M.-settled index options, to be traded up until their settlement value is determined on the expiration date. Currently, these options stop trading the day before the expiration day, which increases overnight risk for investors. The change would allow more trading opportunities to manage risk efficiently, especially during night trading sessions. The proposed rule aligns the trading hours of Cboe's options with similar products from other exchanges, aiming to enhance trading flexibility and risk management for investors.

This change aims to provide traders with more opportunities to access liquidity early in the day, in line with similar sessions on other exchanges.
