Forex Market Hours

The forex market is most active when two sessions overlap. During this period, there is an increase in trading volume, volatility, and liquidity. 

 The best time to trade Forex depends on various factors such as the trading strategy, market conditions, and personal preferences. However, traders generally consider the London and New York trading sessions, which overlap between 1:00 PM UTC to 4:00 PM UTC, as the best time to trade. During this time, there is usually an increase in trading volume and liquidity, leading to more significant price movements. 

 The Forex market is closed on weekends, meaning that no trading can occur on Saturday and Sunday. However, after-hours trading is possible through electronic communication networks (ECNs) that permit traders to buy and sell securities outside of regular market hours.
