Inside EUR/USD price is wide variation which means EUR/USD prices are sloshing around doing nothing. Any downside means the variation becomes worse and EUR/USD becomes prone to a large upward spike in a big blue candle. Wide variation means shorts will struggle to trade downside prices.
The concept to 7 Vs 24 hour trades favors all traders within various time zones. Europeans lack the initial entry to 24 hour trades but most favored to 7 hours and the last part to 24 hour trades. European friends don't lack profits nor opportunities however.
Asia, United States, New Zealand and Australia are prime and ready for both 24 and 7 hour trades although 7 hour trade ending becomes late late night for Australians.
