Most traders focus on indicators.
Smart traders focus on timing.
Markets do not move the same all day. Liquidity rotates and volatility appears at specific hours. Trading outside those windows often means trading against the flow.
Asian session brings low volatility and range building. Most breakouts are traps.
London session brings volume and expansion. Asian highs and lows are often taken and real trends begin.
New York session brings volatility and news. London moves either continue or reverse.
The most important window is the London New York overlap. Liquidity peaks and breakouts follow through. Institutions execute size here.
Crypto trades 24 7 but smart money does not. BTC and ETH move most at London open, New York open, session overlaps, and macro news.
Timing does not replace strategy. It amplifies it.
Trade when liquidity is alive. Ignore the rest
