Advanced Concept V4

Change your trading time zone to New York. To maximize readiness for institutional trading setups based on the prescribed models, traders should set alarms for specific times in the New York Time Zone (EST/EDT), which is generally 10.5 hours behind IST.

Asian Stop Hunt Model

The Stop Hunt Model is a liquidity-based strategy designed to exploit market stop-loss sweeps by aligning with the IPDA daily bias. The core idea is to wait for price to sweep the engineered liquidity of the Asian Session High or Low (after 10:30 AM IST). Once the sweep occurs, the trader confirms the market's true direction via a Change of Character (CHoCH) on the lower timeframe. The entry is then taken only on a retest of the resulting price inefficiency, specifically a Balanced Price Range (BPR) or imbalance, which represents the institutional entry point. By targeting the next major liquidity pool with a minimum 1:3 risk-to-reward ratio, the model prioritizes discipline and quality over frequent trading.

The New York Open Model

The New York Open Model is an index-focused strategy (SPX500, NAS100, US30) that trades solely during the New York Session (9:30 AM – 12:30 PM NYT). It establishes a Range Zone high and low from midnight until the open, treating these boundaries as institutional liquidity targets. Execution is triggered by a mandatory liquidity sweep of one side of this range, followed by a confirming Change of Character (CHoCH) on the 1-minute chart. Entry is taken precisely on the retest of a resulting price inefficiency (like an FVG), aiming for the opposite side of the session range, prioritizing simplicity, timing, and controlled risk over external biases like IPDA.

The ATM Strategy

The ATM Strategy is a high-precision, New York-session trading model designed to capture institutional liquidity moves using the IPDA directional bias. The strategy operates by first defining a Range Zone (00:00 to 8:30 AM NY time) where high and low boundaries act as liquidity targets. Execution is restricted to the Trading Zone (8:30AM to 12:30 PM NY time) and is only triggered when price executes a mandatory liquidity sweep of one range boundary that aligns with the IPDA bias. This sweep must then be confirmed on the 1-minute chart by a Change of Character (CHoCH). Final entry is taken on the retest of a resulting price inefficiency (like an FVG or BPR), with targets set at session highs or lows, ensuring institutional-style execution with high clarity and discipline.

The Central Bank Dealer Range (CBDR)

The Central Bank Dealer Range (CBDR) model is a disciplined, institutional trading strategy used on the 15-minute chart, primarily focusing on London Session liquidity for major currency pairs. The core idea is to align with Interbank Price Delivery Algorithm (IPDA) bias, which dictates a mandatory liquidity sweep (a false breakout of the previous day's high or low) must occur first. Following this sweep, a visible price imbalance (Fair Value Gap) must form within the London Session. Entry is strictly taken only on the retest of this imbalance zone, confirming institutional order flow, with a fixed target at the opposite boundary of the previous day's range.
