Stock brokerage account on 2 different exchanges?

Question: Do you think it would be an advantage to have 1 stock trading account in the USA and 1 stock trading account in another country (say another time zone)-asia, eastern europe, Britain? That way when one market closes another one opens. Some of the foreign stock exchange offer good stocks for very little USD.

I don't think that it is a good idea. First of all, there is currency risk involved. You can buy many foreign stocks through the US exchanges using ADRs.
