Thread: the different types of forex intraday markets

I wondered if anyone else agrees with my following monitoring.

there are BROADLY four kinds of market for spot eur/usd,gbp/usd and usd/chf. Spliting the day ( asia and europe london sessions until the ny start being part1, the ny session being part2) or even a trading session to 2 components, I view:

market 1: part 1 has little price volatility,
part2 has small price volatility. Hence a little range day/session.

Market2: part 1 has little price volatility,
part2 has large price volatility. Hence large price movement, where breakout methods often work as the stoploss isnt triggered.


Market3: part 1 has large price volatility,
part2 has little price volatility. Hence a large range, stagnation day/session. Breakout approaches neglect because stoplosses triggered

market4: part 1 has large price volatility,
part2 has large price volatility. Hence a range, whipsaw day/session. Breakout approaches fail as stoplosses triggered

Splitting into two parts. Part1 is from 0000 or even 0700 to 1200 gmt, part2 is from 1200to 1700 or 2400.

Or even a session eg. The london session can be split into two parts. part1 is from 0700 to 0900 gmt. Part two is from 0900 to 12000 gmt.

Another way to See Various sessions are:

Asia
Asia Euro overlap
Euro
Euro US overlap
US
Dead Moment
Duplie

Overlaps are usually more volatile

I have lost..Anyone else experiencing this???

Can you please break down everything clearly


Thanks,

Nader
