Porquéimportaelreloj:sesionesyliquidez

Forex runs around the clock, but it is not equally active at all hours. Liquidity and volatility rise and fall as the major financial centres open and close, and that rhythm shapes how instruments behave.

Overlaps bring activity

When two major sessions are open at once, volume and volatility tend to peak, and spreads on liquid pairs are usually at their tightest.

Quieter hours can bring thin, choppy conditions where moves are harder to trust.

Matching your style to the clock

Short term traders often prefer the busy overlaps, while others deliberately avoid the volatility around them.

Knowing when your instruments come alive lets you plan sessions rather than trade at random.
