Market Overlap - the best time to trade

 Half way around the
world from somewhere where it is daytime is nighttime. This is
obvious. Now there are three major markets that trade FOREX, the
North American market, the European market, and the Asian market
(including Australia & New Zealand ). The Asian market trades
between 8 pm and 4 am EST (convert these times to your own time
zone), the European market trades between 2 am and 12 pm EST, and
the North American Market from 8 am to 5 pm EST. You will notice
that there are two times when two of the major markets overlap in
trading times; between 2 am and 4 am EST (Asian/European) and
between 8 am to 12 pm EST (European/N. American). Generally
speaking, those are the best times to trade.
