Is there a thread for NY session trading?

I have used the search function and most results seem to not favor trading the NY session but !iving in the US this would be the most sensible session to trade due to sleep requirements and alertness.

If there is thread dedicated to the NY session could someone point it out to me or if interest is high or if someone could start a thread concerning the NY session this newbie would appreciate it.

I live in usa do most my trading during London session.. Usa session is very tricky session..

USA session is tricky due to shifts in liquidity that happen:

1 5am PST liquidity shift as usa starts to open
2. data release - big liquidity shift
3 stock market open another liquidity shift
4. London close . another liquidity shift where price will often die out for next 12 hours.

USA is very busy session with a lot going on both in usa and in Europe


USA session will often have the biggest move of the day. and a lot of the time its exact opposite of what London has done.

Sometimes you need to find the session your most comfortable with, rather then force yourself to be trading the most crazy time of the day...

I Understand its not always possible everybody to trade London session, but it might be worth trying..

You could always give the "Big Dog" strategy a try. It's been a while since I've used it, but it was pretty reliable when I did.

You basically note the high / low price range between 7AM ET and 9AM ET (which is 1 hour before and 1 hour after NY open), then trade any breakouts from that range.
