@reiber you can make use of https://developers.binary.com/api/#trading_times or use https://developers.binary.com/api/#active_symbols and for active symbols call in response you can check for exchange_is_open

As forex can have multiple underlying that can be open or close on different times so better to check for each underlying

{
      "allow_forward_starting": 1,
      "display_name": "GBP/USD",
      "exchange_is_open": 1,
      "is_trading_suspended": 0,
      "market": "forex",
      "market_display_name": "Forex",
      "pip": "0.0001",
      "submarket": "major_pairs",
      "submarket_display_name": "Major Pairs",
      "symbol": "frxGBPUSD",
      "symbol_type": "forex"
    },

you need to parse json and navigate that for example if you are calling active_symbols then parse that json var data = JSON.parse(msg.data); then loop over date["active_symbols"] and match if (date["active_symbols"][i]["market_display_name"] === "Forex"
