Trading in Sydney and Wellington first overlaps with Tokyo from 12:00 am. Next, Singapore opens at 01:00 am followed by markets in Hong Kong and Shanghai at 01:30 am. The intersection lasts till the New Zealand Exchange closes at 04:45 am and then finally the Asian - Pacific Overlap ends with the closing of the Sydney at 06:00 am.
