Ranging market trading time for EUR/USD

[johnnybegoode]

When is the EUR/USD the quietest?
What are the hours when it is ranging and moving sideways?
Thank you!

It is the quietest during the Sydney/Asian session when neither London nor NY are trading. However, there can be abrupt bursts of volatility during such periods as some occasional big trades can easily move the market.

What time does that translate to in PST?

That depends on winter/summer time mode, but currently, it is from 16:00 to 22:00 PST.
