The Dow Jones Industrial Average is comprised of 30 of the most established, recognizable names in American business. When the Dow moves, it’s a signal about the U.S. economy.

Most retail traders know the Dow. But far fewer realize they can actually trade options on the Dow Jones Industrial Average itself — not through an ETF or individual stocks, but through a purpose-built product: Cboe’s DJX Index Options, now with daily expiries (DJXW).

Cboe received SEC approval to launch 23x5 U.S. equities trading on its Cboe EDGX Equities Exchange (#EDGX) in December 2026, pending industry readiness.

Oliver Sung, SVP, Head of North American Equities said: “Since introducing early trading hours on EDGX in 2021, Cboe has seen significant growth in demand for U.S. markets outside of traditional trading hours, particularly from Asia Pacific retail investors, as they look to react to news in real-time. This growing demand is a key driver in our company-wide efforts to expand global access to Cboe’s markets and data across asset classes. The SEC approval of 23x5 trading on EDGX marks the latest step forward in this initiative, and once launched, will enable investors across the globe to trade U.S. equities when they see fit.”
