Frequently Asked Questions

What is the New York Kill Zone and when does it happen?

The New York Kill Zone is the 7:00 AM–10:00 AM New York time window — the last major window of opportunity in the US session, where institutions most often deliver the day's target.

How do I trade the New York Kill Zone?

Check first whether London already completed its delivery (New York then often offers the opposite, concluding move) or left liquidity untaken (New York often continues London), then require a sweep, MSS, and displacement before entering.

Why does the RTH Opening Gap matter specifically during this window?

The RTH Opening Gap becomes most relevant right as the New York Kill Zone opens, so the two should always be read together for intraday context.

Is the New York Kill Zone the same time window as the New York session?

Yes, both cover 7:00 AM–10:00 AM New York time in this framework — the Kill Zone framing highlights it as the highest-quality, most-confirmed execution window within that session.
