Live Global Market Hours & Trading Sessions
Market Clock Hub is a free real-time dashboard showing opening and closing hours for the world's major stock exchanges — NYSE (New York), LSE (London), XETRA (Frankfurt), GPW (Warsaw) and TSE (Tokyo) — alongside commodity trading sessions for WTI Crude Oil, Gold (XAU/USD), Copper and Wheat. Every session is automatically converted into your local timezone, so you never miss an open or close.
🔄 Market Overlap Tracker
The overlap panel visualises when multiple exchanges are open simultaneously. The London–New York overlap (13:00–16:00 GMT / 8:00–11:00 EST) is the most liquid and volatile window of the trading day — widely considered the best time for intraday strategies on EUR/USD, GBP/USD and US indices. The Tokyo–London handover (~08:00 GMT) drives the Asian–European flow in the early European morning.
📅 OPEX, FED Meetings & Weekly Expirations
Track monthly and quarterly OPEX (options expiration) dates — including triple witching on the last Friday of March, June, September and December — plus FOMC rate-decision meetings and weekly expirations across FX, commodities, indices, agriculture and crypto. Everything comes with automatic countdowns in your local time.

What is a market overlap?
An overlap is when two or more major exchanges are open at the same time — usually the highest-liquidity window of the day. The most traded overlap is London–New York, between 13:00 and 16:00 GMT.
When is OPEX (options expiration)?
Monthly OPEX falls on the third Friday of every month. Quarterly OPEX — also called triple witching — falls on the last Friday of March, June, September and December, and typically sees the highest volume.
When are FED / FOMC meetings held?
The FOMC meets eight times per year, roughly every six weeks. Rate decisions are announced on the second day of each two-day meeting at 2:00 PM EST.
