The European Session
The European session is headquartered in London. The large number of market participants has made London the world’s most volatile market for trading currencies. And it links with both the Asian and American sessions.
Look at the GBP/JPY and the GBP/CHF for strong price movements as European assets are converted into dollar-denominated assets. These conversions can cause the currencies to make strong price movements.
Be prepared to get up early (or stay up late) because the European session runs from 2am to 12pm EST. (BD Time 1pm to 11pm)
