I want to educate you guys on the best time zone you should be trading in guys. This is a very important thing in forex because I see a lot of people like do I trade in the morning? Is it best to trade in the afternoon during New York session? Should I trade at night? I have a night to five job is all these things going on and guys you know how forex gets. You have to worry about when to trade, you have to worry about how to trade. So it's a lot going on. So I'm here, I'm Dapo Willis and I'm here to help you guys put the entire puzzle together and today I'm going to be sharing with you guys my secret. I've been training in 11 years, I've made a lot of money in the market and today I want to tell you at what points of the day do I trade that makes me a ton of money. Now guys if you are interested in finding out more about all of this and you want to make a lot of money from the forex market and understand the best time zones for your trading, I suggest you stick around, don't go nowhere, just sit right there and I'll catch you guys in two seconds. Let's go. Sorry guys, before I jump into the video, I forgot to add this part right. Make sure I'm going to give you guys five seconds. Smash that subscribe button down there so that you don't miss out on juicy information like this in the future. I'm always dropping very valuable stuff and I'm one of the realest guys out there you're going to find. I give you five seconds, five, subscribe, four, three, two, one. All right, let's jump into the video for now. Let's go. All right guys, so welcome back to this amazing video where we're going to be talking about time zones, forex trading time zones. Now if you're just new to forex and you're just wondering what exactly is the time zone? So I'll make it pretty brief. Obviously, most of the guys who watch my YouTube channel are newbies but most of you guys are actually like in the maybe been doing about three, four, five months. So you kind of already know what time zones are, but let's indulge the people who know nothing about time zones, right? And don't forget guys, at the end of the day, I'm going to be telling you guys which is the best one to use. So don't go nowhere. Just stay there, right? So for those of you who were just joining us for the first time, so the forex market is actually broken down into four different time zones. So you have, you know, when you wake up in the morning, there's the London session. And then as the London session is closed, so it's about 9am GMT. So you guys know the financial, the forex hub, right? The forex hub, the hub for forex trading rather is actually situated in London, right? So the forex market pretty much opens when the London, pretty much kicks off when the London traders wake up, when they get on their desk. How do I know this? Because I mean, it's facts and I used to work in London as well. I used to be a, you know, a really good trader in Canary Wharf. I put some pictures here just to show you guys, yes, that's Canary Wharf, right? So I used to work in Canary Wharf. So we'll get to the office on Monday. We usually used to kick off the trading day. So we'll trade all the way till about 3.30, 4.00 o'clock when we close. Now as about 2.00 o'clock London time is when New York, which is the financial digital, the financial headquarters of the US, right? So Wall Street picks up about 2.00 o'clock. So as Wall Street starts their day, London is closing and then New York goes all the way into the evening time, about 9 p.m. GMT, and that's exactly when Tokyo is pretty much waking up and then once Tokyo is sleeping, Sydney, which is in Australia, kind of like picks up. So that's exactly what time zones are about. However, that poses a little issue because a lot of people are asking themselves at what point of the day should we be trading? At what point of the day do we have the most liquidity? At what time of the day is my trade best? At what time of the day do I get the best return on investment? Now what I'm going to do here is this. I'm going to break it down into bit by bit because I want you guys, you have to understand that the way I like to teach and the way that I like to make these videos is in such a way whereby you guys get to understand things, the smallest middle school. I teach in a way whereby I wish I would stop because guys, I've been doing this for 11 years and I tell you, I mean the first 2 years wasn't exactly easy because I didn't have access to all this information. I didn't have anybody come on here and be like, yo, my name is Dapo, it's the best time zone, blah blah. I didn't have all of that, right? So you guys should consider yourself lucky. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to break it down into 4 segments and then at the end of the day, we're going to identify that time zone that's going to make you a lot of money, right? So let's kick things off with the London session, which is the morning time, right? And I'll tell you the good and the bad about these sessions, right? And then we'll put everything together, we'll compile everything together, right? So the thing about it is the market, well, in quote, kicks off by 9am GMT, GMT is London time, right? So that's when people like me, I used to work in London, get on the train, catch the train to Canary Wharf and all that and we'll get to the desk, put everything on and then we have all these orders from clients and stuff like that and then we're trading, we'll put the algorithms on. Guys, best believe there are our goals in this game, there are our goals and they're very smart. Hold on guys, I need to drink some water. Give me a sec. I go on a mug with my picture and can you guys see it? That's pretty cool. It was a gift actually. And sorry, real quick, there's a scene on the mug that goes, regardless of the economy in the jungle, a lion can never eat grass. That's what you need to say to yourself. You need to understand whatever is going on in the market. You are a lion and you can never eat anything but profits, right? So that's what this mug represents. Anyways, back to what I was saying. So we get to work in the morning, the orders are coming in and we're looking at the charts and then we start, you know, and then we put all the argos on and everybody's about, so around that between 9am to 11am, by the time we get to work on a new day, so it can be between Monday to Friday, right? You know, between 9 to about 12 noon, about 12.30 when we have to go on lunch break, it's when we tend to see a lot of volatility because everybody's placing orders, we have emails, we have clients, you know, everybody's, you know, so it becomes very, very volatile in the morning and a lot of scalpers, guys, you need to listen to this. A lot of scalpers like to trade around this time. A lot of people like to be like, okay, this is the best time for me to trade and that's when you start to see a lot of scalpers coming and people trying to catch quick 50 to 100 pips and you see all those traders that have a lot of screens and blah, blah, blah, cool. However, the disadvantage with the London session is that due to the amount of algorithms that are trading within that period, it tends to be a significant amount of market manipulation. Now, if you're not careful, okay, see, the thing about the London session is that it provides you a lot of trading opportunities. But if you're not careful, you can get your hands pretty messed up because you have a lot of algorithms, you have people like me trading around that time of the day. So if you're not the most educated trader, you might run into issues. Don't get me wrong, London is a fantastic session to trade. However, it is quite difficult as well. Now, let's go over to so as we move from London into New York. Now, one thing I know, guys, all of this I'm talking about is from experience, right? As we move into the New York session, one thing I know New York is so the market kind of like slows down a little bit. I noticed that for New York, they like what really gets the New York session up and running is usually news release, right? So news releases are kind of like the catalyst for the New York session. And I also noticed that if so whatever happens in the morning, I noticed that New York always tries to do the direct opposite. Why that happens? I don't know, like they just always try to do the opposite. And if a news release doesn't come, I give you an example if the euro is falling, let's talk practical stuff, right? So if the euro is falling, for example, and there isn't any news release to basically carry the euro further down, meaning that if there isn't any negative news coming out from the eurozone or any positive news coming out from the US dollar, that's going to carry on with that euro trade, that euro downward movement. If there's no catalyst to keep pushing it lower, what tends to happen is that the New York guys tend to come up and do something a bit different, right? So what tends to happen is, and apart from the fact that the New York guys have a different approach to the market and want to do something else, don't forget that the London guys, it's about two o'clock when New York opens, the London guys are rounding up and they're about to start taking profit. And this is why you start to realize that around that period, the market starts to get a bit conflicted, okay? So if the New York guys want to do something else and the London guys are trying to, you start to see a lot of whips Now what tends to happen is people who've been trading all morning, people who've been trading all morning made a lot of money. If they're not careful, what tends to happen is that they give away all the, let's say you made 150 pips, you're like, yes, I made $10,000, $15,000. If you're not careful, around the time when there's a change, when there's a change between these sessions and there's a lot of confusion, you might, most of the time, traders tend to give away all their profits. Now, that's the essence of this video so that you know exactly what to do and how to position yourself. And guys, don't worry, I'm still getting to the best time zone, right? Just relax. Now we carry on to New York, everything's going alright. People like me are just running up, like, man, I'm going home. New York boys are calling us like, yo, dabs. You know, the market looks really interesting, but I'm like, cool, I already made money earlier in the day, I'm going home. You know, so the New York boys kind of like carry things over. One thing I also realized about the New York session is, guys, you have to understand that in New York, because the US isn't really too keen about FX, so to speak. The traders, they would rather trade the stock market and stuff like that, right? So what you tend to hear in the news is more of stock market news and all that. So the New York boys would just shake up the market a little bit and then you start to see the market probably heading the opposite direction or just live follow up until New York is about to close. Now, when New York is about to close, usually that's when you start to see FOMC news, that's when you start to see GDP numbers coming out from here and there, and then that is exactly what now starts to move in. So the New York guys, once they reverse what happens in London session, they don't really trade that much until they're about to go home. Why that happens? I don't know. You have to understand that everything and speaking about here, I speak from experience, right? And guys, let me tell you something about all of this at the end of the day, right? All these sessions and all these time zones, you know, if you really want to be immune to all of this, actually I'm going to say that, let me finish with the morning two sessions. So let's go over to the last two sessions. So as New York is about to close and everybody's like, okay, Dabs, tell us how to go about this. Tell us the best time zones. Don't go anywhere, right? I'll tell you guys how to, because it sounds a bit confusing, like should I trade in the morning, afternoon? I'm going to tell you guys what to do, but I need to finish this part. It's very important. Don't go anywhere. Once we're done with New York and New York traders are obviously, they usually tend to start making a lot of moves that start happening towards the end of New York session after they're done with reversing the market once London boys are done, which is probably about, so now I'm talking about 8 p.m. in the evening. And now around this time, a lot of 9 to 5 people are closing from work and all that. And then they're like, okay, cool. How do I position myself and blah, blah, blah, and stuff like that. Once New York is about to close, we have Tokyo starts to pick up. So that's Japanese market. And then once the Japanese market is about to close, about three, four a.m. in the morning, Australia starts to pick up. So what is actually happening here is this, guys, these traders pretty much, the markets pretty much hand themselves over to the next people, right? Now you're probably asking yourself, you know, at what point do I trade in between sessions at the beginning of sessions, do I trade London and its body and it? London in the morning is being volatile, New York boys are reversing it, it's a lot. I'm not going to lie to you guys, it's a lot. Now how have I been able to make a lot of money in the midst of all this noise? The honest truth is this, guys, you need to adopt a style of trading. As you can see, I just said a lot of things, right? You need to adopt a style of trading that helps you trade and make a profit regardless of whatever time of the day it is. Your trading style needs to be immune to these time zones. And that's the exact same thing that I spoke about when I was talking about time frames. Don't forget, there's time zones and there's time frame. See, the thing about Forex is there's a lot of things for people to process. And this is why it's a lot, it's actually a lot, right? So you need to adopt a strategy that is immune to these time zones. And I'm going to share with you guys a very, very good one that can help you guys be immune so that you don't have to worry if it's in the morning, in the afternoon, in the evening. Because, guys, I'm going to lie to you. There are people who stay up, like, okay, you know what? I walk in nine to five, so I'm going to stay up all night and I'm going to trade. Guys, the Asian session, the boys in the night, the market is so quiet. It's so quiet, like, it's like literally in a heartbeat, right? It's so quiet. So you're asking yourself, you know, how exactly, because people who say to themselves, I'm going to go to work, and then in the night, I'm going to trade, they're not that many trading opportunities except you want to trade the Japanese yen. Now, without any further ado, the best approach to all of this is something called a top-down analysis. Now, what this does for you, and this is exactly what I, this strategy, I've used it to make a lot of money in the market. I've made so much money from the market with this strategy that it's insane. Trust me, guys. So what I do is this. I use what they call a top-down analysis, whereby I'm able to anticipate like a thousand pips into the future, right? The way I do the analysis, I anticipate over a thousand pips into the future. This way, I'm not worried about what's happening in the morning after no evening, because at the end of the day, if I've predicted that the euro is going to fall a thousand pips, what's my business? If, you know, tomorrow what's happening in the morning, the market can go up, down sideways, but I've done my projection and I'm right nine out of 10 times. So I don't really care if it's morning, afternoon, or evening, right? And the good thing about it is, regardless of the time that your trade aligns with, regardless of the time that it is time for you to actually place that trade. It doesn't matter if it's New York, London, Asia, whatever, it doesn't matter. Just once it's time to trade, just place the trade, set your stop-loss parameters, set your take profit parameters, and close your laptop, and go have fun with your family. You no longer, with the top-down analysis, you no longer have to worry about time zones anymore, because at the end of the day, you're seeing the bigger picture. Do you know how many time zones are going to occur for 1,000 pips to play on? It's none of your business. Guys, I like to tell you guys something, right? Just before I have to leave you guys. Forex is simple. You have to treat it like an investment vehicle. Trade and go do other things. And guys, you're in luck. I've created something called the Forex Mastery program, whereby I teach this top-down analysis. The link is going to be down here somewhere around here so that you don't have to keep worrying about time zones. And the good thing about it is you're immune to time zones. It teaches you what time zones, it teaches you about everything about the time zones. It teaches you about the best time frames to use. Guys, do you know that you shouldn't just be trading on one time frame? The Forex Mastery program, what it does for you is, it shows you how to do what they call a top-down analysis. What to look at on the monthly, weekly, daily, and how to execute on the four-hour time frame. Don't believe anybody that tells you. Once again, if you want to grab the program, the link is going to be in the description as always or around here. I know this video is quite lengthy. But don't believe anybody that tells you, oh, I have this non-daybreak strategy or this new. Those things are all a fallacy. It's all a fallacy. You want to have a strategy that helps you trade and go do other things. Because think about it. Imagine, you have to be on my desk. I have to check my phone. No. If you keep trading like that, you're only going to be at the mercy of the broker. You're only going to be at the mercy of the broker, at the mercy of the broker, at the mercy of the algorithms, at the mercy of the investment banks. You're just going to keep depositing at no result. But with the top-down analysis, we don't worry about time zones over here. Who cares about time zones, man? Really, I'm truly like, we don't care about time zones, man. We don't care about time frames. Well, we care about time frames, but we know how to use the time frames. I'll give you an example. On the monthly time frame, what you should do with your monthly time frame is to identify the overall trend. Weekly time frames are for chat patterns. Daily are for the immediate trend within the overall trend. And then 4R is where you come to execute. So if your 4R shot is, your setup is on a 4R time frame and it's a New York session or a London session, you don't care. You just place the trade, close it, and go do other things. So guys, once again, I hope I've been able to educate you guys about time zones. And I hope I've been able to clear out that myth. Because people are like, I want to trade in the money. You don't need to do that. Take it from me. I'm Napoleon. So once again, guys, the link to the 4X Mastery program is going to be in the description around here as always. I'm here. Don't forget to subscribe. Yes, I forgot to add that. Don't forget to subscribe to the YouTube channel so that you don't miss out on juicy information like this. I love you guys very much. And I'll catch you guys in my subsequent videos. This is my video on time zones. Say goodbye to worrying about what time of the day it is to trade. All you need to do is grab the 4X Mastery program, digest the information on there, and become immune to what time of the day you should be trading. You can trade at whatever time and you will still make a lot of profit. My name is Dapo Willis once again. I love you guys very much. And I'll catch you guys in my subsequent videos. Take it easy and peace out.
