TRON (TRX) Returns by Hour, Weekday & Session
When has TRON tended to rise or fall? Average returns by hour of day (UTC), weekday and trading session, measured on Binance spot TRXUSDT hourly closes from 14 Nov 2023 to 14 Nov 2026. Seasonality in the past is not a forecast: most of these differences are small next to an hour's normal move.
Over 26,297 hourly returns since 14 Nov 2023, TRON's strongest UTC hour on average was 09:00 (+0.037%, up 52.9% of the time) and its weakest 14:00 (-0.020%); the best hour's edge is statistically distinguishable from zero even after allowing for picking the best of 24 hours (t = 3.2). By UTC day, Tuesday averaged the most (+0.35%) and Monday the least (-0.21%), over 1,095 days. Weekends are quieter: the average weekend day ranged 1.92% against 2.47% on weekdays (22% less). Of the trading sessions, the Europe session added the most in total (+3.5% cumulative over 783 weekdays).

Average share of each UTC day's Binance spot TRXUSDT quote volume, over days with all 24 hours stored. An even split would be 4.17% an hour; green hours are busier than that, red quieter. Session shares are weekdays only, with the same hours as the session returns; the sessions overlap, so their shares don't add up to 100%.

How to read it. Mean and median are average hourly (or daily, or session) returns; % up is the share that closed higher; Avg |move| is the average size of the move either way. The best of 24 hours will look good by luck alone, so an hour needs a |t-stat| of about 3.1 or more (about 2.7 for the best of 7 weekdays) before its average is distinguishable from zero; |t| of 2 is not enough here. Returns are only counted where both closes are stored: 0 missing hours in this window were skipped, not bridged. See also TRON monthly returns.

TRON seasonality FAQ
What is the best time of day to buy TRON?
The tables show which UTC hours and weekdays have had the highest and lowest average return in the data, with the share of hours that closed up and a t-statistic. Most hourly differences are tiny (hundredths of a percent) and within the noise. Because the best of 24 hours is picked after the fact, a single hour needs |t| of about 3.1 or more (a Bonferroni correction for 24 comparisons; about 2.7 for the best of 7 weekdays) before it counts as more than luck. Past seasonality is not a forecast.
How are the returns calculated?
From Binance spot USDT hourly candles: each hour's return is the log change from the previous hour's close to its own close, and each weekday's return from one UTC-day close (the 23:00 candle) to the next. A return is only counted when both closes are stored; Binance skips the odd hour for maintenance, and those gaps are left out rather than bridged. Percentages are converted back to simple returns for display.
What are the trading sessions?
Asia is 00:00–08:00 UTC; Europe 07:00–16:00 London time (06:00–15:00 UTC in British Summer Time); the US is the NYSE session, 09:30–16:00 New York time, measured 09:00–16:00 because the candles are hourly (13:00–20:00 UTC in US daylight time, 14:00–21:00 otherwise). The sessions overlap, so their returns do not add up to the day's. Weekdays only; exchange holidays are not taken out.
Is crypto more volatile on weekends?
The weekend table compares the average absolute daily return, the average intraday range (highest over lowest hourly close in a UTC day) and the average absolute hourly return on Saturdays and Sundays with Monday to Friday.
When is TRON trading volume highest?
On Binance spot TRXUSDT since 14 Nov 2023, the busiest UTC hour was 14:00 with 5.9% of a day's volume on average (1.42× an even hour), and the quietest 23:00 (3.2%), over 1,095 complete UTC days. Of the trading sessions, the Europe session carried the most, 43.3% of the day's volume on an average weekday. The sessions overlap, so their shares don't add up to 100%.
