Session overlaps (UTC)
- London and New York 12:00 to 16:00 summer, 13:00 to 17:00 winter The busiest four hours of the day. US data lands inside it.

The week opens Sunday 17:00 New York time (21:00 UTC in northern summer, 22:00 UTC in winter) and closes Friday 17:00 New York time.
Northern summer means roughly April to October, winter roughly November to March. In the weeks of March, April, October and November when one region has changed its clocks and another has not, times sit between the two columns; the live clock always uses the real offset. Bank holidays are not shown, and brokers can open a few minutes late or close early around them.
