Our Daily Standard Operating Procedure, Step by Step
The exact checklist we run before the New York open, every single day, no exceptions.
Before you start: Assumes you're already familiar with the core concepts and models this checklist sequences together.
Part of the MY EDGE framework — refined through thousands of hours of chart study.
No opinions. No predictions. Follow the process. That's the only guidance you need every trading day, and the Daily Trading SOP is the hour-by-hour breakdown of that process — from 4:59–6:00 PM NY time (the new day forming) all the way to entering a trade.
- 4:59–6:00 PM NY time — New Day Opening Gap
- 7:00 PM — Asia Kill Zone
- 8:00 PM–12:00 AM — Asia session
- Liquidity event
- Every PD Array must include
- Narrative alignment — before every entry
- Why the schedule is built this way
- Common deviations and how to fix them
What Traders Say
“One of the best trading education platforms I've used. It focuses on understanding the market, building discipline, and creating a repeatable process instead of chasing shortcuts.”
“Great platform with plenty of useful information. I'd love to see even more content added over time, but what's already available is definitely worth it.”
“This is one of the few places that focuses on market context instead of promising unrealistic results. It completely changed the way I look at charts.”
“Very solid educational platform. Some topics require a bit of focus if you're completely new, but the explanations are logical and easy to revisit.”
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Daily Trading SOP?⌄
It's the hour-by-hour daily routine, from marking the NDOG at 4:59-6:00 PM New York time through the Asia Kill Zone and Asia session, to entering a trade only after a confirmed liquidity event, MSS, displacement, and candle close.
How do I follow the Daily Trading SOP in real time?⌄
Use it as a literal hourly agenda — set reminders for 6:00 PM, 7:00 PM, and 8:00 PM New York time until the routine becomes automatic, and never skip the NDOG marking step just because it "doesn't look important" that day.
Why does the SOP start at 4:59 PM rather than at the New York open?⌄
Because that's precisely when the NDOG forms — the day's first reference has to be marked before anything else is analyzed, and every later step in the SOP assumes that step already happened.
What's required before actually entering a trade under this SOP?⌄
A confirmed liquidity event followed by a market structure shift, displacement, and candle-close confirmation, entering above/below the close of the prior opposite-direction candle with the stop beyond the swing — timing alone is never sufficient.
