hello there I hope that you are doing well in today's lecture I'm going to share with you how time Cycles influence Market swings I will share with you what the time Cycles are and how we can utilize these time Cycles to frame high probability trade setups I will share with you examples that were all of the past week meaning all of these examples that you will see during today's lecture occured the past week of the time of this recording if you will see how many freaking times time cycle logic that's a bit of a word play there if you see how many times time Cycles logic could have been utilized to frame high probability trade setups in the past week you will understand how many freaking opportunities there are each week I promise you that at the end of today's lecture you're going to have a completely different perspective when it comes to liquidity and what liquidity po to use as points of interest or as draws on liquidity for your ideas before we begin with today's lecture I must share with you the following when I was studying on the ICT and I was going through his mentorships I was always wondered why he was targeting very specific highs or lows as his draws on liquidity one point I realized that the reason why he's targeting those specific levels is because those levels are time based liquidity pools everyone is so focused on the price patterns everyone is so focused on just okay what's the hard formation or what's the low formation why would that be a dra Equity Etc what you need to understand is that the reason why that specific level is the drawing Equity is because it is time based and that is what I'm going to show to you during today's lecture buckle up and let's begin before we dive into time Cycles you must first understand and believe that market swings are not random from a young age we get taught that all financial markets are random and that the fluctuations on them cannot be predicted or cannot be timed there's this common saying that the markets cannot be timed I believe the opposing I believe that market swings are not random I believe that every single tiny fluctuation that you see on the markets is absolutely programmed and engineered in advance I know that this goes against everything that we have been taught from a young age everything that we've been taught by the media and by everyone around us however when you begin to see the signatures that I will showcase to you week in week out day in day out during specific time Windows you tell me that that is buying or selling pressure or act of Randomness it can't be and that is the belief that I want you to hold on to whilst I explain to you what I'm about to explain to you even if you believe that market swings are random please just for one moment in your life try to listen to the fooling and try to investigate what I will share with you you won't regret it trust me first all the interbank price delivery algorithm ipda delivers price efficiently this is very important to understand because you need to understand that the interbank price delivery algorithm which I will now refer to as IA has one function and that is to deliver price efficiently meaning at the right times price should be booked at these prices and it should rebalance all inefficiencies and draw towards liquidity pools ipda refers to time based liquidity pools that is what we will focus on during today's lecture these time based liquidity points are algorithmic reference points meaning during the current time cycle we already refer back to the previous time cycle it's respective high and low that is what I will share with you during today's lecture these algorithmic reference points are important during the current time cycle they provide structure to us to know where buy side and sside Equity is resting which we can utilize to trade off the highest probability trade setups contain the following they contain a very specific time cycle and they contain a very specific signature in price action when you combine the both this can lead to Great Precision within the markets first of all we're going to take a look at the bullsh example what I need you to understand is that during the current time cycle we can already refer to the previous time cycle its respective high and low when this current time cycle opens up and the underlying idea is that we should reprise towards upside meaning the market should go higher we will wait for the market to open up drop lower taking out the previous cycle low forming a low below that previous cycle low to then begin Distributing towards the upside we see the market accumulate manipulate distribute what do we target we target the previous cycle its respective High that's the nearest term by equility objective this rectal occures when the underlying idea or narrative is higher prices for that particular window of time for the opposing side meaning a bearish scenario it would look like the following where we anticipate lower price to take place and we see the market open up during the current time cycle and we already know where the high and low are of the previous time cycle we anticipate the market to run up higher to take out the previous cycle high this is manipulation which is taking place when the market then rejects this High we anticipate the market to distribute towards the downside side to draw towards that previous cycle low this is the nearest cell Equity objective ideally we want to either position ourselves above that previous cycle high if we're bearish or in close proximity to it when we displace through that high this is something I will discuss later on what I need you guys to understand is that what I have Lally drawn out in front of you occurs every single day multiple times what I need you guys to understand is what I've drawn for you in these schematics is fractal meaning this occurs both on the higher time frames SDR time frames you can even go as crazy as going down all the way into the one minute charts but just like it would also work on a daily chart for example all you would have to do is pay attention to a bigger time cycle then and use that time cycle it's respective high and low to determine the next draw Equity do you know all of the sudden understand what points of interest and what draws on equility to use simply by these two schematics if you don't yet no worries I will touch on this more later during this lecture what is crucial to understand is that the current time cycle determines how the next time cycle will deliver that next cycle then determines how the cycle after that cycle will deliver meaning based on how this current time cycle deliver we can anticipate listen closely we can anticipate how the next time cycle is likely going to deliver meaning if the current cycle consolidates what can we anticipate during the next time cycle we can anticipate the next time cycle to manipulate into for example the buy set Equity engineered during that consolidation to then distribute towards the low of that previous consolidation it's a birge and referred model however what you also need to understand is that the previous time cycle determines the how the next time cycle will deliver but during that next time cycle we refer back to the high and low of that previous time cycle because they are true points of interest and true draws on liquidity this is how you basically objectify your trading completely just by paying attention to time based Equity pools what you need to understand is that we keep on referring to the previous X High pxh and the previous X low pxl during the current time cycle we refer to the high and low of the previous time cycle X is the varable which can be adjusted to your choosing meaning this is relative to your style of trading when you're a swing Trader you pay attention to bigger time Cycles when you're an intraday Trader you pay attention to smaller time Cycles these time Cycles could be for example weekly daily session 90 minutes 30 minute Cycles Etc the cycle length is up to your choosing when you align yourself from the bigger time Cycles all the way to the lower time Cycles within an underlying Narrative of for example higher prices meaning when a higher cycle shows to you that the order flow is bullish and the lower or smaller Cycles confirm this to you then you have a very high probable setup because everything is aligned with one one another to confirm to you that prices are likely going to be next let's take a look at the daily delivery what is very important to understand is that Asia determines how the ran session will deliver the ran session determines how the New York morning session will deliver the New York morning session determines how the New York afternoon session will deliver are you beginning to see how we can utilize the current session to anticipate how the next session is like going to deliver during that next session we were refer to the highend low of the previous session meaning during London we refer to the highend low of Asia during the New York morning session we refer to the highend low of London during the New York afternoon session we refer to the highend low of the New York morning session are you beginning to understand how we can utilize time based sidity pools to already objectify or analysis for the current session when it comes to daily delivery these are the session times I adhere to before I showcase these session times I want you to understand that these are the session times that I prefer to use your session times might be different and it doesn't mean that the logic that I will share with you doesn't work on those session times it just means that these are the times I have found to be the most accurate for pxh and pxl Theory the a session To Me is from 6:00 p.m. to 2:30 a.m. during the a session I do not trade and I do not really care what occurs all I care about is is where the Asia High and the Asia low are going into the remainder of the day the reason why my Asia session is so long is because Asia to me is simply the printing of time and the booking of price within usually tied ranges when Asia expands that's very significant because that shows to me that during the morning session I already need to be cautious but that's the topic for another time if we pay attention to the London session we can see that the London session for me is from 2 30 a.m. to 700 a.m. notice that we have three cycles of 90 minutes in here the New York morning session is from 700 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. the New York afternoon session is from 11:30 to 4:00 p.m. the reason why my time Cycles are split up this way is because these Cycles provide me with the ability to utilize 90 minute Cycles during the London New York morning and New York afternoon session when I look at the delivery through the perspective and through the lens of 90minut Cycles I Can See Clearly where the key highs and lows are and that is what I will showcase to you we're now going to take a look at the first chart example of today's lecture what I want you to see is that the lon session delivered right here the Len High formed here and the Len low formed here the New York session opens up at 7:00 a.m. and initially runs higher it Engineers Bice equ below the W high do you see how these highs right here are relatively equal do you also see how the Asia high that formed in advance of the on high was not taken out right here I did not annotate it but you need to understand that in advance of 230 we of course have the Asia session the Asia High formed right here London High and the shortterm high which formed during the beginning of the New York session formed right here we have multiple key highs engineered right here and therefore that's engineered by Equity the market runs lower and takes out the r and row by taking out the r and row we reprice lower into this BC right here I did not annotate it but you need to see this inbalance right here we also take out the sales Equity here which can be investigated on your own the market eventually forms a low here and then begins to expand towards the upside what is a key dra equility do you want the high of course do you see how we went from the London low to the London high that is one setup based on the London session during the New York session if we pay attention to the morning session then through the perspective of 90minut Cycles we can see the following Cycles the first cycle is from 7 to 8:30 a.m. the second cycle is from 8:30 to 10:00 a.m. the first cycle determines how the second cycle will deliver during that second cycle we refer to the highend low of that previous cycle after the second cycle we have the third cycle from 10: to 11:30 a.m. the way that the third cycle delivers is influenced by how the second cycle from 8:30 to 10:00 a.m. delivers therefore when the third cycle opens up we pay attention to the high and low that forms between 8:30 to 10:00 a.m. do you understand how we can look back into the past to see where the high and low of the previous time cycle formed to determine our draw on equility and our points of interest when we take a look at the following example we can see that at 8:30 a.m. the market runs up higher it forms a high near the end of that time cycle this is the second cycle of the morning session for your info and we can see that the Len high was already taken out right here what do we know now we now know that the market is in a deep premium relative to the the daily range The Market opens up at 10:00 a.m. during that third cycle and what does it do it initially runs lower forms a low and then manipulates above the previous cycle high above the high of 830 to 10: a.m. smart money cells short up here I went short here as well on Monday and we then begin to reprise aggressively towards the downside what's a key sell Equity objective a key sell equ objective is the low of the previous 90 minute cycle from 8:30 to 10: a.m. and here's something interesting ures we repic below that low this is our short-term strong liquidity and the market retraces back into that low do you see how the market finds resistance inside of this up close candle which was the candle which formed that previous cycle low the market retraces into that finds resistance there and then slams lower one more time when the market trades below the previous cycle low it has to find resistance there in order to continue lower a little gem for you in here now if we pay attention to the morning session its respective middle cycle and we split that 90 minute cycle up in three 30 minute Cycles we get the following Cycles we get Cycles from 8:30 to 9 a.m. from 9:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and from 9:30 to 10:00 a.m. you need to understand that the the same logic that I described to you earlier during this lecture applies to the smaller time Cycles as well it's all fractal guys and that is what I'm trying to Showcase to you during this lecture if we take a look at the fing delivery I want you to see the fing at 7:00 a.m. The Market opens up here and begins consolidating as you can see between 7 to 8:30 a.m. the market is in a consolidation I love to see this and this is a very high probable signature in my opinion when it comes to the morning session that's something you need to investigate on your own at 8:30 a.m. the market runs slower and takes out the low of that consolidation between 7 to 830 that low formed as you can see the market forms a new low and then retraces we form this High and the market slams lower we form a new low that is below the low of 830 to 9 it's this down close scandle that takes out that previous 30 minute cycle low and here's something very interesting occurs what I need you to see is that at 9:30 which is the opening time of the regular trading hours The Market opens up forms a low below that previous 30 minute cycle low let me just summarize this for you we're trading below the 7 to 830 low we're trading below the low of 8:30 to 9 and we're trading below the low of 9 to 9:30 Market opens up forms at low and immediately begins to reprise towards upside aggressively what are the draws on Equity the draws on Equity are of course all those previous 30-minute cycle Highs but because the previous 90min cycle High which is right here from 7 to 8:30 is in such close proximity we can anticipate the market to gravitate towards that smart money reversal right here this is Terminus of the market Mak buy model with an original consolidation being right here sell set the curve buy set of the curve little mxm logic in here as well do you see how we were in Deep Discount not only because we traded below that previous 90 minute cycle low but also because we were consistently trading below the previous 30 minute cycle lows what do you see the tree drives pattern where we form Tre L and then reverse is present right here as well I don't give a what you say yeah I'mma do my way so you can go kick rocks I'm a stack brick I build what I want to make yo I got a lot of to say so I'mma do

channel under the lecture called aligning time and Price Market maker sell model breakdown I would highly advise you to watch that lecture because it is a very valuable lecture however let's take a look at the application of the time Cycles in this example what I need you to see is that between 8:30 to 9:00 a.m. we form the low of the time cycle here and the high of that time cycle right here we see the market open up at 9:00 a.m. and immediately reprice above the high of the previous 30 minute cycle at this moment in time our minds should immediately think okay we're trading in a premium why because we are also trading above the high of 7 to 830 which is showcased by this red box the market reprices higher higher higher until it reaches a key price level this key price level was outlined in advance as you can see within that trade break bre down lecture the market reaches that level and then rejects it it begins to Ru over what I need you to see is the fling I need you to see how we close below that 8 to 9:00 high right here when 9:30 comes along the market retraces into a CB which formed right in advance of 9:30 forms a high there and then immediately displaces towards the downside creating a CB that displaces through that previous High the market retraces into that price level of that old high and into that CB and rejects it right away what can we potentially Target we can potentially Target the low that formed between 8:30 to 9:00 a.m. this was also the CPI L do you see how this is an AM def fractal meaning the first 30 minute cycle accumulated the second 30 minute cycle manipulated a above the high of that accumulation cycle and the third cycle distributed lower towards the low of that accumulation cycle these Cycles represent AMD investigate that if we then pay attention to the morning session it respective final cycle and divide that 90min cycle in 30 minute Cycles we get the following times we get first fall 10 to 10:30 10:30 to 11:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. here we can see the market open up at 10:00 a.m. and it's dropping over initially to form this row once this low was formed the market began to expand towards the upside aggressively what I want you to see is that between 10 to 10:30 this is the high that formed 1030 comes along meaning a new cycle opens up and what does it do it runs towards the upside initially taking out that previous 30 minute cycle high once this high was taken out we can see the market rejected right away we repic towards the downside aggressively and here come something for notes every single time that the new time cycle opens up we do not only pay attention to the high and low of the previous time cycle but we also pay attention to equilibrium of the previous time cycle being 50% 50% being showcased right here which lines up with this BC the market expands lower trading into that BC into a discount of the previous cycle range before forming a low and then slowly gravitating towards the upside as you can see 11:00 a.m. comes along and what does 11: a.m do 11 A.M takes out the low that formed prior between 10:30 to 11 and we then begin to see the market run up higher taking out that previous 30- minute cycle High when this previous 30 minute cycle High gets taken out the fallowing occures the market forms a new new high and then again rejects it towards the downside do you see how these 30min Cycles were consistently being used as algorithmic reference points during the next time cycle that is key information that you need to begin paying attention to just like with the 90minut Cycles let's take a look at the afternoon session the afternoon session To Me is from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. this is what I refer to as the lunch cycle this is the first PM cycle the second cycle is from 1 to 2:30 p.m. this is to me the second p.m. cycle the third cycle is from 2:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. this is the third afternoon cycle or the 3rd p.m. cycle the following delivery what we can see is that the market runs up higher from around 1 p.m. high lows are being created and there's a lot of back and forth going as you can see the reason why I mentioned this is because you need to understand that when a reto minor Trader looks at this delivery or looks at these fluctuations price action they see one thing and they see an uptrend and they seem to believe then the market should continue to go higher forever meaning what they do is they draw a trend line underneath these lows a diagonal trend line and they extend that all the way to the right what they didn't think is that they can just go wrong Market WR and place a stop loss below that trend line that is engineered sales at Equity guys and that's very important to understand then near the end of the 90 minute cycle we can see the market begin to crol it's going back and forth back and forth back and forth back and forth 230 p.m. comes along and what does it do it opens up and immediately takes out the high of the previous 90minut cycle the gray box or the dark box that I've annotated here represents the market trading above that previous cycle High what I need you to see is that only the wigs went above it the bodies stayed below it and that's significant because it shows that price is being held inside the range of the previous cycle the Wicks do the damage the bod tell the story eventually what occurs during the next micro which is from 245 to 3:15 p.m. we can see that the market reprices towards the downside aggressively meaning It Slam slower this is a massive move within one one minute candle as you can see what do we reprise into into the low of the previous 90minut cycle so let me just make it clear to you we took out the previous 90-minute cycle High the second 90min cycle high of the afternoon session and we repriced to the low of the previous 90min cycle High the second cycle of the afternoon session we take out that low and immediately reject it to trade back into the range that was established to eventually close today guys you tell me that these reactions right here to that buy side quity pool and the reaction to that c Equity pool during that micro window is random you tell me that a lot of sellers are stepping in at this price level at exactly that time when you anticipate the high information to form or that exactly a lot of buyers are stepping in at this time where you anticipate a low formation to form guys at some point you must come to terms with the fact that this is simply a game which is being manipulated every single day and when you begin looking at these very specific time based Equity pools you eventually come to realize that everything I'm saying during this lecture is true remember all the examples that I'm showcasing you now were from the past week at the time of this recording how crazy is that how crazy is that to understand that during the past week there were so many freaking times that there were opportunities utilizing these time based Equity pools now if we pay attention to the final cycle of the afternoon session the final 90 minute cycle and we divide that into three 30 minute Cycles we get the following times we get first fall 2:30 p.m. to 300 p.m. second L 3:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. and thirdly 3:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. now what's interesting to not is that the second and third cycle of this 90minut cycle are the Power Hour meaning this is the final hour of trading for the day from three to 4 p.m. there's some interesting signatures that we can be looking at to confirm how Power Hour is like going to deliver now [Music] [Music] sh oh [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] oh [Music] oh [Music] up [Music] [Music] here we can see the falling delivery where we can see that during 1 to 230 PM we formed the low of that cycle right here notice that we formed these relatively equal highs up here during that 90minut cycle 2:30 p.m. comes along and we immediately take out the low of the previous 90minut cycle we take out that low and the market begins to show the signatures of wanting to form a low however we form that row and the market fails to displace towards the upside instead we reject this wrong wig and the market continues to roll over the market goes back and forth back and forth back and forth back and forth what do we anticipate now we anticipate that 3pm opens up and takes out that previous 30 minute cycle low relative we lows have been engineered this is engineered sales at equity and when these rows get taken out we anticipate the market to reverse from there to D draw higher I personally went WR inside of this low formation here and I pyramided all the way in this area below the 3pm open I shareed the execution video on my X profile or on my Twitter profile if you may wish and you can watch it there the market begins to run higher and notice that it Engineers buide Equity here between three 3:30 p.m. in advance of equilibrium of the previous cycle range notice that we traded above the high of that first 30 minute cycle this upo scandle is that high this up close scandle is also a bullish breaker why because we have a low high lower low higher high now this up close scandle has to function as support on Price Right not only because it is the bullish breaker but more so because it is the previous cycle High we see the market retrace into that upco scandle and find support there the wi goes below it here but the bodies keep on closing inside of it eventually the market reprices into equilibrium of the previous cycle range and we can see the market begin to consolidate consolidation can be anticipated at equilibrium as you know notice that we also took out that previous 30 minute cycle High personally I took a partial the moment that the market Wicked higher here and eventually my TR stop got hit I did not like the rejection of equilibrium eventually but what I want you guys to understand is that this low formation right here was beautifully done according to the logic of the time Cycles where we're trading below that previous 90minut cycle low below that 30 minute cycle low so we anticipate that the market will eventually form a low even if we're just going to chop around during the final hour of the day the final chart that we're going to take a look at during this lecture is the fallowing what you need to see is that between 2:30 p.m. to 300 p.m. the market initially runs up higher and forms this high this day was very bullish so the moment that we had this rather slow reaction towards the downside and we begin to see the market go back and forth back and forth back and forth back and forth to me that was suspicious because we still had higher D from objectives or key levels which had to be reached therefore my anticipation was the following I was anticipating that we would open up at 3 p.m. drop lower to take out the brief 30 minute cycle low for a loader and then begin to show the signs of forming reversal here to begin to expand towards the upside notice that when we traded above equilibrium the market went back and forth for a moment before expanding into the anticipated Direction notice that we took out the previous 30- minute cycle low right here this is where I went long off and we referred it towards the previous 30 minute cycle high right here if you want to see my full breakdown you can refer to my X profile and see it there now what I want you to understand guys is that during this lecture I've shown you examples of the past week's delivery have you seen how many opportunities there were present and understand that I only have showcased a few of the opportunities that were present meaning there were loads more utilizing this logic one more thing that I want to end today's lecture with is the following begin paying attention to intermarket relationship the moment that the market takes out the previous cycle loan this is not all there is to time Cycles this was just an introduction lecture there's way more that we can be paying attention to when it comes to these timebase ranges however I hope this lecture has provided you with some insights and the required knowledge that you can utilize to go into the charts and investigate for yourself even if you don't believe in the predetermination of the swings that take place in these markets I would highly advise you to still investigate what I shared with you see for yourself whether or not there's any validity behind the things that I've shared with you that is a key takeaway think for yourself and if you want to research more about time Cycles I would highly advise you to watch the following lecture that I released in the past I wish you all the best and look forward to catching up with you in the next one please let me know if you want to see more lectures like these in the comments be safe your teaching and your content has made me 100 fold better as a Trader now maybe 4 months or 5 months in your mentorship I've saved myself years it's been incredible now I actually have a model I look in the markets with a different perspective I can anticipate where the do or what our do is for the day I don't think I would be where I am right now without your guidance and and help along the way like my eyes are still open to the market I'll predict something and I'll see it happen you gave very specific guidelines and within that I noticed it made even back testing a lot more simple I know exactly when to look for trades and when not to look for trades be paying a lot more for this information and the way that you break it down
