Load a 1 or 5 minute chart with Volume to determine the liquid periods of the day.

You guys are so bad

CL trades with most liquidity from 9:00am until 2:30 p.m. Eastern Time. From 2:00 - 2:30 the price action can be very erratic.

Times that are not good for trading Crude Oil for me as 16:30-03:00EST,
the volume is super light. You can do one lot but the slippage can be tough.

As far as the ES, 08:00 to 8:45 sometimes there is movement, and of course the day session. But during night, Dax is first as ES can't handle volume.
