Notes
- The ideal currencies to trade during the Asian Open are the Australian Dollar (AUD), the New Zealand Dollar (NZD), and the Japanese Yen (JPY).
- The Asian Open consists of the first two hours of the Asian session.
- The Asian Open allows North American traders to engage in part-time trading after a 9-5 job.
- The Asian session is generally suitable for those who cannot trade during London or New York sessions.
- EURUSD and GBPUSD are generally less active during the Asian session.
- Cross-currency pairs offer higher volatility due to the absence of US dollar influence.
- Michael recommends focusing on cross-currency pairs and looking for optimal trade entries in the 2-3 hour window after the Asian session opens.
