What it does
Forex markets run 24 hours a day, five days a week — but they're not equally active the whole time. Each major financial center opens and closes on its own schedule, and the best trading opportunities happen when two sessions overlap. That's what this app tracks.
Open the app (or click the browser extension) and you'll immediately see which markets are live right now, how many minutes until the next one opens, and whether you're inside the Golden Zone — the London/New York overlap where liquidity and volatility are highest.
Sessions covered
- Sydney session — Asian Pacific open
- Tokyo session — main Asian trading hours
- London session — the largest forex market by volume
- New York session — North American hours
- Golden Zone — London/NY overlap (peak activity)
Why traders use it
Time zone math is surprisingly easy to get wrong, especially if you're trading across daylight saving time changes. Different countries change their clocks on different weekends, which shifts session opens and closes for days or even weeks at a time. The app handles all of that automatically, so you always see accurate local times without having to think about it.
The browser extensions are especially useful if you trade on a desktop setup — the session clock sits in your toolbar and updates live, so you don't need to switch between windows or keep a separate tab open.
Completely free, zero ads
There's no premium tier, no subscription, and no ads. The app is free on every platform it's available on. If you find it useful, a review on the app store goes a long way.
Frequently asked questions
Does it work with my local time zone?
Yes. The app automatically uses your device's time zone and adjusts all session times accordingly.
Does it handle daylight saving time?
Yes. DST changes for London, New York, Sydney, and Tokyo are all handled automatically. You don't need to do anything.
What is the Golden Zone?
The Golden Zone is the period when the London and New York sessions are both open at the same time. This overlap has the highest trading volume and often produces the strongest moves of the day.
Is the browser extension the same as the mobile app?
They show the same session data. The extension lives in your browser toolbar and is designed for desktop traders. The mobile app has a larger display and works well on phone or tablet.
Is it free?
Completely free on all platforms. No ads, no in-app purchases, no subscription.
