Which sessions are open now, and where the overlaps fall on your clock.
The forex market is closed over the weekend. It reopens Sunday evening (New York time) with the Sydney session.
- Sydney, 07:00 to 16:00.
- Tokyo, 09:00 to 18:00.
- London, 08:00 to 16:00.
- New York, 08:00 to 17:00.
- Each window is in its own city clock, so the overlaps move with daylight saving exactly as they do in the market.
Worth knowing
London and New York, for the few hours they share. Two of the largest centres are dealing at once, which usually shows up as tighter spreads and larger ranges.
From Friday evening to Sunday evening New York time. The clock greys out over the weekend rather than counting down to a session that is not coming.
The local windows stay put, but the gaps between them shift, because the four cities change their clocks on different dates. That is why the overlaps are worth reading rather than memorising.
