Every Session Plays a Different Role — Here's How to Read Each One
Every session plays its own role — none of them is "just another one".
Before you start: Builds on the Asia, London and New York session concepts.
Part of the MY EDGE framework — refined through thousands of hours of chart study.
The goal isn't to trade every session. The goal is to understand what each session is trying to accomplish — Asia, London, New York, lunch, and power hour each have their own role in the daily story, and that difference changes how you read everything that happens within it.

- London Session — Objective: Beginning Liquidity Delivery
- New York Session — Objective: Completing the Daily Delivery
- Lunch — Objective: Reading Reduced Participation

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Session Analysis?⌄
It's the framework for understanding the distinct role each part of the trading day plays — Asia builds liquidity, London begins delivery, New York completes it, lunch reflects reduced participation, and power hour finishes delivery into the close.
How do I use Session Analysis during the trading day?⌄
Before each session, write down its objective and one concrete thing to watch for, then at every session transition, explicitly check whether liquidity has already been delivered and whether the narrative has changed before carrying it into the next session.
Is every session traded the same way?⌄
No — treating every session identically, for example trading lunch the same way as the New York Kill Zone, is one of the most common mistakes this document specifically warns against.
Why analyze the Asia session if it rarely offers executions?⌄
Because without understanding which liquidity Asia built, London and New York lose their context — Asia's role is establishing the liquidity those later sessions target, not producing entries itself.
