Questions

›What time does the London session open in South Africa?

At 10:00 SAST today (11 November 2026). In winter it opens at 10:00, in summer at 09:00.

›Why does the time change during the year?

South Africa keeps one offset all year; the UK moves its clocks in spring and autumn, so the session shifts by an hour in South Africa.

›Is my broker’s server time the same?

No. MetaTrader shows the broker’s server clock, often New York + 7 hours. The session times here are the real centre hours in your local time.
