Best Time to Trade USDJPY in Kenya

Between the hours of 4 PM to 8 PM Kenyan time is the best time to trade the USDJPY pair in Kenya because during this window, the LON & NY sessions overlap, resulting higher liquidity, lower spreads & faster price movement.

Another best time to trade USDJPY from Kenya is during the Asian session from 1 AM to 11 AM Kenyan time.

Hi @maasai_Princess, the USD/JPY pair is most actively traded during the New York (NY) session. Personally, I prefer to trade it during the start of the NY session (first 2 hours of the NY session).

The time in your country Kenya, is 8 hours faster than that in NY and business activities in NY start around 8:00 AM and end around 5 PM so when converted to Kenya time the NY session will start from 4:00 PM till 1:00 AM.

But like I said earlier, I would rather trade USD/JPY during the first two hours of the NY session only which is between 4:00 PM and 6:00 PM Kenyan time.
