Hey City,
Thanks for your trade timings. Can you shed a little light in terms of the actual trade hours in GMT ?

Yes, most take a lunch 12-1pm, but sometimes you can catch someone moving the markets while everyone is away
Always wonder whether this moment (NY 12:40 noon) is the lunch break of US market, slow motion................, though I know the London market is closed.

You told me that you trade 3 times a day. Can you specify the exact hours of each of these 3 sets of trade timings ?

I am with you there, the open for me is 3am as I am in Florida EST.
Oh okay. I used to trade in the London session. Strictly used to scalp on the GBPJPY. Now I've moved to the states and London open is 2 AM!!!

I trade part time, a little in the morning 6-7am EST, 9-4pm (if I have time at work). I do not trade the Asian sessions at night either.
How about you?
Looking to setup a supply-demand-price-action based semiautomated EA which will trigger based on my supply-demand zones. Work in progress

I have noticed there are some good setups that occur during that timeframe. I sometimes take a trade during that time frame before my drive to work.
Good Luck

I used to trade the London open when I was in India 8 gmt-11 gmt. I'm going back to b-school this month and have moved to the states. Toying with the idea of day trading with one GOOD entry at 8 - 9 EST.

I am trying to do trading in morning 2 to 3 hours before leaving to job.
Roper, do your experience say that if I trade from 4 to 7 am EST, can I catch some good setups?
Also anybody doing trades on cell phone or hand-held device and can see charts on that?
