Binance Expands 24/7 Trading with Launch of FX Perpetual Futures
Binance has expanded its offerings to include Foreign Exchange (FX) perpetual futures. This move gives users 24/7 access to the largest financial market, where FX is traded every moment to hedge and express macro views.
According to Shunyet Jan, Head of Exchange and Trading at Binance, 'FX is one of the world's most foundational markets.' He noted that unlike traditional asset classes, FX operates 24 hours a day, five days a week, with weekend trading activity growing, albeit with reduced liquidity outside weekday sessions.
The first FX perpetual contract, USDBRLUSDT (USD/Brazil Real), will go live on September 21, 2026 at 14:00 (UTC). Binance's deep liquidity and global user base are expected to extend continuous price discovery into the gaps that traditional FX cannot cover.
