The Asian Session, London and New York — what really differ

The crypto works 24/7, but the liquidity and market participants are not evenly uniform around the clock. Asia, London and New York can create different profiles of variation, volume and response to levels. Asia is more likely to build a range or continue to move local with less liquidity, London brings European capital and New York puts macro data and US instruments on the market...

Opening the U.S. to crypto: Why 3:30 can change the whole day

The opening of the US stock market increases institutional activity and can transfer new information from indices, dollar and bonds to the cryptocurrency market. Therefore, the surrounding area of 15:30 Polish time requires additional attention. The most important thing is whether the pre-opening movement is confirmed by an increased volume or quickly negated. It is also important to have a correlation with Nasdaq,...

Weekend on cryptocurrency — Why Liquidity Behaviors Different

The cryptocurrency market does not close on weekend, but some participants in traditional markets are inactive. This can lower depth, change spread and make smaller order flows move the price more than a week. Weekend traffic can be real, but its durability is worth assessing only after the return of greater liquidity. Sunday nights and Monday nights are especially important...

How to prepare for a new market session

Good preparation before the session reduces the number of decisions taken under pressure. Instead of responding to each candle, it is worth defining in advance the levels, scenarios and data that will change the market assessment. The session plan should include a context of 4h/1d, the scope of the previous session, the closest high/low swing, important events, the current spread and a list of instruments with sufficient liquidity. It is a...

When the move from Asia has a chance to survive during the European session

The movement started in Asia does not need to be negated in Europe, but its quality depends on the structure and participation. The best question is not "will London reverse?" but "will new liquidity accept the prices built earlier?". Continuation is more credible when the strike has closures outside the earlier range, the turnover grows, and the return to the level does not cause aggressive...

Change Sessions and False Kicks: How to Read Passage Asia → London → New York

The transition between sessions is the moment when new participants and a different liquidity scale arrive in the market. Levels built in the quieter part of the day are then re-tested, so the first bump after opening London or New York is not always the target movement. The most important thing is to distinguish between level breach and acceptance of new prices. If the impact has volume, close...
