LONDON SESSION

Time flexibility is a great advantage for people with various schedules and allows for adaptation to everyone's day Since it's a global market, we can trade anywhere in the world, even while we're travelling. Because it's a traded market without interruptions, there are no opening gaps each day.

This minimizes the risk of trading gaps at night caused by unexpected news, natural disasters, wars, etc. The advantage of not having gaps is indisputable, since it allows us to manage risks in a much more precise way, calculating down to the last pip, because normally we won't have the problem of slippage or trading gaps.
