Unlike trading stocks and commodities through a traditional broker, the cryptocurrency market is open 24/7 across a growing number of online exchanges worldwide. Trading when the global financial markets are closed can result in light volume and lower liquidity as professional traders are usually not active outside of these hours.
Closing times for traditional market exchanges vary, but they usually open in the morning and close in the evening – except on the weekend and holidays. The crypto trading sessions table displays when a market is active or inactive based on the local time zone so that you can determine when volume might be highest.
Although a traditional market may be “closed,” there can still be huge movements in the cryptocurrency market depending on news speculation and liquidity manipulation. The most successful trades are the ones executed when the most traditional markets across the globe are active.
New daily candles in cryptocurrency markets form at 00:00:00 UTC. Crypto trading sessions do not “close” for holidays and weekends. Volume may actually be higher in cryptocurrency during these times.
