⚠ marks hours where the average measured spread runs at least twice the typical hour — the daily rollover window stands out immediately.
The rollover lands in the morning here
The daily rollover (swap posting, brief spread widening) happens at 00:00 server time — which is around 22:00 WAT. Positions carried through breakfast hours pay or earn the overnight swap, and tight stops around that time can be hit by the spread alone.
Swap multipliers measured from the server: Monday ×1, Tuesday ×1, Wednesday ×3, Thursday ×1, Friday ×1. The Wednesday triple swap posts at the daily rollover that follows — around 22:00 WAT the next morning.
Cheapest hours to trade (measured)
Ranked by movement per pip of spread on the measured feed, the best EUR/USD hours recently were around 13:00, 15:00, 14:00 WAT; the most expensive were around 20:00, 21:00 WAT (rollover).
How this was measured
- Session times: the per-instrument quote-session table published by the MT5 server itself.
- Hourly spreads: every captured quote, bucketed by server hour over the last 24h.
- Swap multipliers: per-weekday swap factors read from the server.
- Times converted to WAT with current daylight rules; figures refresh on a schedule.
