Thanks. I live in London and work a 9-5 job. Therefore, my window of trading "opportunity" is 8pm - 11pm London time. Given this what approach would you recommend if you were in my position? Thanks.

Frankfurt currently opens at 2AM EST... not sure if they handle DST like London does or not @ChrisTinaBruce??

I see a pickup at 2am and then a larger pickup at 3am on the NQ so that would make sense, Frankfurt at 2am and London at 3am...

EUREX-futures (FDAX, BUND, eurostoxx50....) start at 2am EST, but the EUREX plans to start sooner some of their contracts, not sure if it will effect all their futures-contracts (because there is interest in Asia to trade this products).

Frankfurt and London start their Cash-session at 3am EST.
