Analyzed the intraday trading times of the past two months, organized for everyone's reference.

Mainly because it has been too tiring to watch the market recently, finding high-efficiency time points is really necessary.

1. Tokyo 08:00 – 11:00 | Asian session

🎯 Function: Preheat, range, wash liquidity

⚡️ Characteristics: Small fluctuations, often stop at the high and low points of the range

📌 Key points to respond:

Look more at the structure, chase fewer trades

If you see a narrow range/wedge, mark the upper and lower edges, prepare for London to confirm the breakout

If RSI/KDJ divergence occurs and is close to the London opening, you can use a small position to create a 'pre-hotspot', aiming only to see London, not to hold long intervals

Especially calm = strong signal: Capital is on the sidelines, waiting for London to take action

2. London 15:00 – 18:00 | European session

🎯 Function: Main trend starts / High occurrence of false breakouts

⚡️ Characteristics: Increased volatility, false breakout – stop orders – true direction reversal is the core play

📌 Key points to respond:

Wait for confirmation first: Break the range? False break? Pullback?

Don’t chase as soon as you see a breakout, first check if there is a pullback to confirm the structure

If the Tokyo range is 'quickly broken and quickly returned', it is usually a false move, the direction will mostly reverse, a key signal!

If trading volume/OBV/RSI momentum synchronously increases, the possibility of a true trend starting is high

3. New York 20:00 – 23:00 | American session

🎯 Function: Follow London’s trend / Harvest trades / Create late-session false moves

⚡️ Characteristics: Early stage continues the trend, later stage (after 22:30) is likely to reverse

Key points to respond:

If London is in a true trend, the early part of the US session is mostly a trend-following push of 1-2 waves

If London experiences a false breakout, the US session often reverses to the true direction

RSI divergence + structure damage = exit signal, don’t cling to the battle

Volume clearly declines after 23:00, efficiency is low, do not chase trades, only trend-following orders

Supplement | North American late session (Beijing 2:00–05:00)

Strictly speaking, this period overlaps with the NY late session + delivery session + early Asian session

Low liquidity, most easily leads to passive stop orders, market maker hedging, liquidation crashes

⚠️ Inefficient and high risk: Unless you are focused on executing false breakout stop orders, otherwise it is not recommended to trade

If there is no special plan, it's better to sleep/rest!

🧱 In one sentence:

Tokyo frames, London breaks the situation, New York takes over, rest late at night.
