Gold hours in Pakistan time

Pakistan keeps UTC+5 all year, so the gold hours move only when the US and UK change their clocks. MT5 usually shows the broker's server time (often UTC+2 in winter, UTC+3 in summer), 3 or 2 hours behind PKT.

In Pakistan the London Killzone runs 12:00–15:00 PKT in January and 11:00–14:00 in July; the New York AM Killzone 17:00–20:00 in January and 16:00–19:00 in July. The London–New York overlap, often the busiest stretch for gold, is 18:00–22:00 in January and 17:00–21:00 in July. The chart and tables above use the last 60 trading days and are updated every week.

Questions

What is the best time to trade gold in Pakistan?

Gold usually moves most in the London Killzone (12:00–15:00 PKT in January, 11:00–14:00 in July) and the New York AM Killzone (17:00–20:00 in January, 16:00–19:00 in July). The chart on this page shows the busiest hours of the last 60 trading days, updated every week.

Which day of the week moves gold the most?

It changes with the news. The weekday table shows the average range of each day over the last 60 trading days; days with US data such as the jobs report or CPI are often busier.

Why is the Asian session quieter for gold?

London and New York hold most of the gold market's volume. In Asian hours gold often ranges, and the London open can sweep the Asian high or low before the real move.

Where do these numbers come from?

From ICC Charts' own MT5 demo feed: the average high-low range of each hour, worked out once a week. We publish only these averages, not the candles. Education only, not investment advice.
