London session forex time

The London session in forex trading is one of the most important and active market sessions. It typically runs from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM GMT. Due to the high trading volume and liquidity, this session often sees significant price movements, making it a prime time for traders. The overlap with the New York session (from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM GMT) further increases volatility, offering strong trading opportunities. Major currency pairs, especially those involving GBP, EUR, and USD, tend to be highly active during this period.
