• Apart from Japan, the countries with the second economic power (Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, South Korea) are also active in the transaction.
• At certain periods, liquidity can be very low and visible for a very small price movement (no change in the relatively long time). A small price movemen allows breakout level of previous trends that occurred in the American market to form, so there is a phase of consolidation.
• Most of the movement short after a fundamental economic news is released.
• The pairs that might be interesting for you to trade in the Asian session are those including JPY and AUD.
