For profitable trading it will be advisable to make trades at the moments of trading session when strong price movement is the most probable, and those periods when market is weak or is in sideways movement, exclude trading operations.

Overlap period<\/b>\u00a0– when trading hours overlap – there is more activity and volatility in the market. Mikhail Lemah<\/span><\/p>\n

Professional traders use these overlapping periods, because during them the liquidity and trading volume on the market is high. Higher expectation of trades and often major trends of the day – all this magic starts when several exchanges work at the same time.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n03:00 – 05:00
\nDuring this period the following are in operation
\nAustralian, New Zealand, Tokyo, Singapore, Shanghai and Hong Kong stock exchanges.<\/b><\/span>
\n\u200b<\/span><\/div>\n

The bottom line<\/span>
\n“It is not a good idea to trade against the big players.”\u200b<\/span><\/div>\n

Before you speculate on a financial instrument – study it in detail.<\/span>
