London, New York or Asia: which session fits you?
The best session is the one that matches your setups and your life. Here is how they differ.
London
Strong directional moves and the highest volume in major currency pairs. Great for breakout traders who can trade early.

New York
The overlap with London brings the biggest swings of the day, plus most US news releases. Plan around the calendar.
Asia
Quieter ranges, good for mean-reversion setups and for traders in Asia-Pacific time zones. Watch for the London open breaking the range.
