US Stock and Bond Market Trading Days of Year (TDOY) 2024

Some strategies rely on trading day of the year (TDOY) to work effectively. This is especially true for seasonal and fundamental traders. However, while looking on the internet, I was unable to find a reliable source that filters out weekends and federal holidays to provide a good day-by-day breakdown of the trading days. Also, some software offers these lists as part of their platform, but, the software I looked at cost more than $1500. I also tried using ChatGPT to create the list below, but it only gave me a truncated list with a few days. So, I decided to create these lists myself using Google Sheets.

Therefore I created the following lists. One list is for the Bond Market and the other list is for the Stock Market. Bond market observes two extra holidays – Columbus Day and Veterans Day – and therefore has two less trading days each year. I have filtered out weekends and the federal holidays days listed in the following post: link. Please note that 2024 is a leap year, which means February will have 29 days instead of 28 days. Additionally, 2024 is also a US Presidential Election Year, which may be important to some traders depending on what instruments they trade. I believe the following lists can help anyone looking to get a list of trading days in 2024 and build their trading plan for the year.
