Trading Session Timetable

The foreign exchange market is open 24 hours a day, 5 days a week. This is one of its most attractive features as it allows traders from all across the globe to participate whenever they want. Market hours are divided into three broad trading sessions. The Asian session (which also includes New-Zealand, Australia, and Eastern Europe), the European session, and the North American session. Below you will find a table of the opening and closing hours. These hours change slightly when daylight savings time is observed.

Session	Main Market	Time (GMT)
Asian	Tokyo	11 pm – 8am
European	London	7am - 4pm
North American	New York	12pm – 8pm
