1:00 PM – 3:00 PM UTC, just before U.S. market opens. High anticipation causes momentum shifts.
💤 Worst Time:
Between 2:00 AM – 6:00 AM UTC — low liquidity; spread widens; fakeouts happen easily.
📤 Best Time to Exit:
5:00 PM – 6:30 PM UTC, when the U.S. session peaks in volatility before cooling off.
🌎 AMERICAS (EST / UTC -5)
🚀 Best Entry Times:
8:00 AM – 10:00 AM EST (13:00 – 15:00 UTC)

WEEKEND STRATEGY (Global)
Weekends behave differently in crypto:
🧊 Saturday Morning (UTC):
Low volume, weak momentum. Avoid opening large positions.
Best for range trading and quick scalps.
🔥 Saturday Evening to Sunday Midday (UTC):
Liquidity spikes as traders re-enter ahead of Monday.
Good time to enter trades with clear setups.
🏁 Sunday Evening (UTC 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM):
Exit trades before the Monday volatility storm.
Smart money positions itself for the week — avoid chasing pumps.

🧠 Pro Tips:
Overlap = Volatility. Trade when London & U.S. or U.S. & Asia overlap.
Use indicators differently at different times:
RSI, MACD, and Bollinger Bands behave best in high-volume zones.Don't overtrade on weekends. Liquidity is fake, volatility is deceptive.
⏰ Timing is half the trade. The other half? Discipline.
