How our search for the right tool FAILED

While we were learning and parallely creating this app and the Forex Trading PDF we were surprised to see how many forex market hour solutions have faulty data in their charts. Even those produced by big companies. Worse, many don't take into account the different holidays and daylight saving transitions which results in ineffective or money-losing trading decisions.

We got tired from this carelessness so we built our own forex timing tool that has the functionality and ease-of-use like no other out there. And now we want to share it with you.
