The Fear of Missing Out at the London Open!
The fear of missing out (FOMO) hits hard at the London open. High liquidity drives sharp moves. Traders rush in, fearing they'll miss the action. This often leads to emotional entries and traps.
There are many traps set for the unwary forex trader and the London session crossover is one which occurs each day at precisely the same time. It is immensely profitable for the market makers as so many traders are unaware of this simple trap which plays on the fear of missing out, or FOMO. The volatility indicator is very evident and signals either congestion or a reversal from the primary trend to the primary trend.
Why FOMO Traps Traders
London's opening overlaps with Europe. Volume surges early. Price gaps or spikes trigger FOMO. Many buy highs or sell lows without confirmation. Volume price analysis (VPA) exposes these traps—low volume on spikes shows weakness.
