Kill Zones and Session Models

Kill zones are session times associated with higher volatility and liquidity engineering: London open (~2–5 AM ET), NY open (~7–10 AM ET), London close, NY afternoon. Manual traders note increased sweep and reversal frequency in these windows on forex and index futures.

Asia session often builds the range that London/NY later raid. Mark Asia high/low before London — breaks and sweeps reference these.

Power of Three (AMD) model: accumulation (range), manipulation (sweep), distribution (trend leg) — descriptive framework for a session day, not a prediction every day.

Silver Bullet and other ICT models are specific time windows — test personally before adopting. Journal 20 samples.

Stock traders map similarly to cash open, first hour, and power hour — concepts transfer with different clocks.
