London session
The London session is the European stretch of the 24-hour foreign-exchange day, running roughly from 8am to 4pm UK time. It is one of the most important windows in FX, because London has been the world’s largest currency-trading hub and the session accounts for a huge share of daily global volume. Liquidity is often deep, spreads can be tight, and many of the day’s biggest moves can originate here, particularly in the pairs involving the euro and the pound.
The session also overlaps for a few hours with the New York open, and that overlap, when the two largest centres are both active, is typically one of the most liquid and volatile parts of the entire trading day. Traders often plan their trading around it.
Example: A day trader who focuses on EUR/USD does most of her work between the London open and the New York overlap, then steps back in the afternoon as European desks wind down and activity may thin out for the rest of the day.

Long
To be long is to own an asset, or hold a position, that typically profits when the price goes up. It is the most basic stance in markets and the one most people intuitively understand: buy something, hope it rises, sell it later for more. The term applies across every asset class, from shares and currencies to commodities and derivatives, and it is the natural opposite of being short, where a trader profits from a falling price.
Going long can be done outright by buying the asset, or with leverage through instruments like futures and CFDs that magnify both the gains and the losses resulting from price movements. The defining feature is direction: a long position generally benefits from rising prices.
Example: A trader who believes gold will rise goes long by buying it at 2,000 dollars an ounce, planning to sell higher; if gold climbs to 2,100 she profits by the difference, before trading costs, and if it falls instead she loses, since a long position generally loses value when the price moves down.
Long Candle
A long candle is a candlestick with a large body, meaning a wide gap between the open and the close for that period, and it is often read as a sign of strong directional pressure. On a chart the body’s length is the story: a long green, or white, candle shows strong upward price movement from open to close, while a long red, or black, candle suggests the reverse.
Because the size reflects the balance of pressure during that session, traders often read long candles as a potential sign of momentum and commitment, rather than the indecision that small, stubby candles convey. Context matters, though; a long candle after a big move can equally mark exhaustion.
Example: A trader watching a stock break out of a tight range sees a long green candle form on heavy volume as the price surges through resistance, and reads it as a possible sign of buying interest behind the move, giving her a reason to monitor the breakout, while recognising that it may not hold.
Long-legged doji
A rare candlestick pattern showing a balance between buying and selling pressure in the same trading period, appearing as a candlestick with a small body and equally long shadows.
Long-Legged Doji
A long-legged doji is a particular candlestick pattern often read as a sign of indecision. It forms when a session opens and closes at almost the same price, leaving little or no body, but swings widely in between, producing long wicks, or shadows, stretching both above and below. Those long legs are the key: they show the price travelled a long way up and a long way down during the period, yet buyers and sellers ended in a stalemate, closing right back where they started.
Traders may take it as a sign that a prevailing trend may be losing momentum and that the market is at a moment of balance, often a warning to watch for a reversal, especially after a sustained move. However, the pattern alone does not confirm a reversal.
Example: After a long uptrend, a trader spots a long-legged doji forming at a high, with price having spiked up, fallen back, and closed near its open; she reads the tug-of-war as momentum stalling and tightens her stop, wary that the rally could be about to turn.
