I want to share something quite important for those who are trading forex or following the market: trading hours truly have a significant impact on price movements.



Specifically, the European session's hours depend on the season. In summer, the European (London) session starts at 14:00 VN time and lasts until 23:00. In winter, it starts a bit later, at 15:00, and ends at midnight. The US session (New York) in summer is from 19:00 to 04:00 the next morning, while in winter it runs from 20:00 to 05:00.

But the most interesting part is knowing when the market heats up. That’s when these two sessions overlap, roughly from 19:00 to 23:00 VN time. During this period, liquidity is high, economic news is continuously released, and prices fluctuate wildly. If you want to find opportunities or manage risks, these are the most critical times to watch.

Additionally, the early European session (14:00 - 15:00) often sees movement, and when the US session opens (19:00 - 20:00), strong volatility usually occurs due to the release of US economic reports, especially affecting USD-related currency pairs.

In summary, if you want to trade effectively, closely monitor these time frames on Gate or wherever you follow the market. Timing is everything in trading.
