About this app

Master global currency market timing with PipClock — the professional 24-hour visual market hours dial, session overlap tracker, and broker server clock reconciler.

The foreign exchange market never sleeps, operating 24 hours a day, 5 days a week across Sydney, Tokyo, London, and New York. But peak volatility, tightest spreads, and institutional volume only occur when specific major financial banking desks trade concurrently.

PipClock eliminates timezone confusion by mapping all active sessions, Daylight Saving shifts, and broker server candle close times directly onto your phone screen.

KEY FEATURES FOR FOREX TRADERS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

• 24-HOUR VISUAL SESSION DIAL
See the entire global trading day on a single, continuous 24-hour circular dial. Interactive session arcs dynamically light up as Sydney (Pacific), Tokyo (Asia), London (Europe), and New York (North America) open and close.

• THE "GOLDEN OVERLAP" DETECTOR
Over 70% of total daily forex volume surges when the London and New York trading sessions overlap (12:00 – 16:00 UTC). PipClock pinpoints this peak liquidity window with real-time countdowns and high-liquidity alerts.

• 3-WAY RECONCILED CLOCKS
Never confuse chart time with local time again. Toggle between:
1. Local Phone Time: See exactly when sessions open in your current city.
2. Broker Server Clock: Matches standard MT4 / MT5 retail charts (GMT+2 winter / GMT+3 summer to ensure 5 clean daily candles aligned with the 17:00 NY close).
3. New York Anchor Time: The universal benchmark closing clock for the global forex trading week.

• AUTOMATIC DAYLIGHT SAVING (DST) ENGINE
The United States and European nations shift between standard and summer time on different calendar weeks each March and October. PipClock automatically calculates these 1-hour divergence traps so you never miss an opening bell.

• HIGH-IMPACT ECONOMIC CALENDAR
Stay protected against market slippage. View scheduled macro economic data releases (NFP, CPI, Central Bank Interest Rate Decisions) with dual timestamps (Local + Broker Chart Time) and customizable reminders (5m, 10m, 15m, 30m, 60m before release).

• DAILY 07:30 AM MORNING SESSION BRIEFING
Wake up to a smart notification in your phone tray with upcoming session openings, expected volatility windows, and high-impact news releases for the day.

• REGULATED RETAIL BROKER DIRECTORY
Select your retail broker (such as HFM, IC Markets, Exness, XM, FP Markets, Pepperstone) to automatically align chart session times and view regulatory oversight badges (FCA, CySEC, FSCA, CMA).

• INTERACTIVE 5-STEP TIMING TUTORIAL
Master market liquidity cycles, broker server time mechanics, and weekend rollover risks with an intuitive built-in visual curriculum.

• THEMES & PERSONALIZATION
Customize your trading workspace with OLED Dark Obsidian, Crisp Daylight, or automatic System Default themes, paired with custom neon accent palettes.

• 100% FREE UTILITY • ZERO PAYWALLS
PipClock is completely free for all traders with no locked pro features, no subscriptions, and no paywalls.
