24h relay
One day, drawn as a relay.
Three sessions joined end to end; the overlap between them is the day's liquidity king — the white line is "now", and it's moving.
The London–New York overlap (12:00–16:00 UTC): the four hours with the largest turnover and tightest spreads — where big moves prefer to happen.

Ten session guides: the character of the three sessions, the overlap's golden four hours, crypto's 7×24 rhythm, overnight and holiday risk, and getting your timezone right — when you trade matters as much as what you trade.
01SESSIONSGlobal trading sessions: how the market follows the sunTokyo opens, London takes the baton, New York brings it home — the secret of 24-hour markets is a relay of three sessions. Read this timetable and you know when to watch and when to sleep.02SESSIONSThe Asian session: quiet, but not simpleThe Asian session gets labeled 'low volatility,' but the quiet has its own opportunities: home turf for range strategies, the digestion window for overnight gaps, and the scout for Europe's direction.03SESSIONSThe European session: trends start in LondonLondon tops global FX turnover. The first hour after the European open often sets the day's direction — both the fake-breakout trap and the real trend launch live here.04SESSIONSThe Americas session: data, volatility and reversalsThe New York session concentrates heavyweight data, the US equity open and option hedging flows — the day's volatility king, and the easiest place to get shaken off.05RHYTHMThe overlap: liquidity's golden four hoursThe four hours when London and New York are both online deliver the largest turnover and tightest spreads in FX — big moves favoring this window is no coincidence.06RHYTHMCrypto's 7×24: no close, but a rhythm all the sameCrypto never shuts, yet liquidity still follows the sun: US hours dominate turnover, weekends run thin, and the UTC midnight daily roll carries its own pulse. No closing bell — the rhythm remains.07RISKOvernight risk: you sleep, the market doesn'tHolding overnight hands your account to traders on the other hemisphere. Gaps, swap costs, liquidity faults — three checks to run before you keep a position through the night.08RISKHolidays and daylight saving: two calendar trapsHolidays make liquidity vanish into thin air; daylight saving quietly shifts your 'fixed times' by an hour. Two of the most overlooked calendar traps, each with its own checklist.09SETUPSet the timezone right: three time traps in your chartsWhere the daily candle 'day' begins changes the daily pattern itself. Chart timezone, daily-close cut, session highlighting — the three time-related settings that matter in the terminal.10SETUPA follow-the-sun routine: a trader's day in any timezoneWhether you live in Asia, Europe or the Americas decides which sessions you can trade comfortably. Rather than forcing all-nighters for New York, design a sustainable routine around your own clock.

faq
Frequently asked.
Q1Is there a free plan?
Yes. The free plan includes interactive charts, watchlists, built-in indicators and basic alerts; data is delayed where the exchange requires. Paid plans unlock more chart layouts, active alerts and intraday depth — see the official pricing page for exact limits.
Q2How do I change the chart timezone?
Switch it in one click from the time bar at the bottom-right of any TradingView chart (local / UTC / exchange time), or pin it in settings. For cross-market symbols, UTC keeps daily cuts and "yesterday's high/low" consistent with most feeds.
Q3Can I use it without signing up?
Viewing charts and quotes needs no login. An account is only needed to save layouts, sync watchlists, receive alerts and publish scripts — one account works across web, desktop and mobile.
Q4Which systems are supported?
Desktop: Windows 10/11 (x86-64 and ARM64), macOS 11+ (Intel and Apple Silicon), modern Linux with glibc 2.31+. Mobile: iOS 14+ and Android 8.0+.
Q5Are the installers safe?
The Windows installer is code-signed by TradingView Inc.; the macOS app is Apple-notarized; Linux packages are GPG-signed and ship a SHA-256 checksum per release for you to verify before installing.
