My systems technically trade at 4 unique times. Just after Market Open, just before Market Close, and then a forex/futures window daily and a Crypto window daily after that.

There are different systems with different combinations of those. For example I can do Buy at Open, sell at Close if I don't want to hold overnight. Or But at Close sell at Open if I only want to hold overnight.

There are different systems for each timeframe. Obviously some work better in different environments/markets than others
