LOKZ // London Killzone

⇒ 02:00-05:00 NY time // 07:00-10:00 London time

• Highest probability of creating High of the day when market bearish / Low of the day when market bullish
• Highest volume and volatile movement
• The PA during London Session sees the highest probability of a large directional move in the 24h day
• 5 am to 7 am / 10am - 12 am ⇒ “London launch period” ⇒ NOT to be traded
• If the price is trending in London session we might see a quite NY session and vice-versa
• If the price is consolidate in London session highest probability is we see a trending move in NY session
• High probability to see PO3 2 am to 7 am NY time // 7am -12 am London time
• If price doesnt revert in London we can expect the big move will be in NY

NYKZ // New York Killzone

⇒ 07:00-09:00 NY time, extends to 14:00 // 12:00 - 14:00 London time extends to 19:00

• Use NY to mitigate a loss from London/Asia
• Easiest time to trade because of overlap. The secret is what happened in London.
• Not every pair has to have a setup in New York BUT every NY open has to have a setup in 1 or more pairs /USD
• The PA during NY Session sees a consistent round of Economic News Releases - sometimes predictable sometimes not
• 12 am to 1 pm // 17 - 18h⇒ “NY launch period” ⇒

NOT to be traded

• Continuation of London’s Move with a small pullback or a complete reversal on the daily direction

Low forming in London, we can anticipate a retracement lower in the NY Open and agreement with that daily bias

• When the daily is in a near one sided momentum ⇒ it is easiest to look for a confirmation of that direction in the London PA. If London agrees with the Daily bias - we can anticipate NY to post a continuation setup. Reversals require more insights

LCKZ // London Close Killzone

⇒ 10:00 - 12:00 NY time // 15:00 - 17:00 London time

• Time-frame for entry search: 5m
• Smaller and faster moves compared with the open KZ (a 5 minute OTE Setup, very short term moves, 15m POIs for TPs)
• Retracement off the High of the day on Bullish days

OR

Bounce of the Low of the day on Bearish days

- LOKZ bounce play
- Consolidation - Asia put the low - market rally untill London Close where it reverted into the close.
- High in Asia - price starts to dump untill London Close.

• London Close can create continuation points for swings that trade well into the NY afternoon hours. Other times - London Close can create continuation.

Asian Range

⇒ 7:000-00:00 NY time // 00:00 - 05:00 London Time

• Valid only when

price consolidates

in a range

• If the daily bias is Bullish and we took the low in LOKZ look for longs. Touching just the bottom of the range or creating equal lows doesn't validate the entry criteria
• If the daily bias is Bearish and we took the high look for shorts
• Real move happening in London
• If missed the entry then wait for NYKZ to start and mark the liquidity pocket available/happened in LOKZ
• Aggressive moves after daily close (Asia Hours) tend to get reversed around London/US Hours.
• Aggressive moves early in the week tend to get reversed later in the week.
