Does it handle Daylight Saving Time (DST)?

Yes, it utilizes IANA timezone data through the exchange_calendars library to automatically handle DST transitions across all supported global jurisdictions.

Which exchanges are supported out of the box?

It includes 10 major exchanges: NYSE, LSE, SIX, FWB, TSX, NZX, JPX (Tokyo), ASX, HKEX, and SGX, with a standard pattern to add more via MIC codes.

Can I use this with SQL databases like ClickHouse?

Yes, the skill includes specific ClickHouse SQL patterns for DST-aware hour extraction and advice on integrating holiday calendars with database workflows.

Why use this instead of simple hour checks?

Simple checks miss holidays, early closes, and complex lunch breaks (like Tokyo or Hong Kong), which can lead to significant inaccuracies in financial data analysis.

Is this skill optimized for large datasets?

Absolutely. It uses a vectorized .isin() lookup pattern with pre-computed trading minutes, making it over 2x faster than standard row-by-row iteration methods.
