Times when cryptocurrencies tend to rise and fall
1. Between 1:00 AM and 4:00 AM (GMT-5)
- In this interval, cryptocurrencies usually experience corrections or declines due to the decrease in market activity after the closure of traditional markets in the US and Europe.
- Investors often close positions during this quieter phase, which can lead to a slight drop in prices.
2. At noon (12:00 PM - 1:00 PM GMT-5)
- At this time, after the cryptocurrency market has opened in Asia and has begun to stabilize, it is common to see a pause in upward movements. Some traders operating in Asia have already closed their positions and may generate drops before US traders fully activate.
Times when cryptocurrencies tend to rise
1. Between 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM (GMT-5)
- During the early hours of the US trading day, markets tend to show an increase in volatility. This period is key because it coincides with the opening of the markets in America, which generates more trading volume and can lead to an upward trend, especially if there are positive news or movements from institutional investors.
2. Between 2:00 PM and 6:00 PM (GMT-5)
- This is another period of higher activity in the market, as it coincides with the time when Europe is still active and the US is fully operational. Cryptocurrencies may experience rises, especially when there are important events or announcements of new developments.
Why does this happen?
- Interactions between time zones: The cryptocurrency market is primarily driven by three major time zones: Asia (mainly Japan and China), Europe, and North America (US). Peaks in volatility tend to occur when the markets of these regions overlap.
