--:--

Where bars line up vertically, sessions overlap - these are the most liquid, high-volatility hours to trade. The London + New York overlap is the busiest of the day.

Why Session Timing Matters

The forex market runs 24/5, but not all hours are equal.

Liquidity Peaks

When a major session is open, spreads tighten and volume rises. The London session alone accounts for the largest share of daily forex turnover.

Overlaps = Opportunity

Session overlaps - especially London/New York - bring the biggest moves. More participants means more volatility and cleaner trends.

Closed on Weekends

The market opens with Sydney on Monday morning (local) and closes after New York on Friday. Times here adjust automatically for daylight saving.
