Also: Opening Range Gap
The gap between yesterday's RTH close and today's open. A magnet, just like an NDOG.

Killzones and the patterns of the clock
From the same chapter
- KillzoneA high-probability time window. MCI's main one is 09:30–11:00 ET.
- MacroA ~20-minute burst in which the algorithm reliably hunts liquidity (09:50–10:10, 10:50–11:10…).
- CBDRA reference range (14:00–20:00 ET) whose size is projected in standard deviations.
- Lunch trapThe lunch pattern (12:00–13:00): institutional volume steps away and price breaks falsely on both sides. Not traded. Not to be confused with ICT's Venom Model.
- Standard deviationThe height of the CBDR — or of Asia — projected in ×1, ×2, ×3 multiples. It gives the day's travel budget.
- Macro data daysThe announcement candle sweeps both sides: it is not information, it is a stop harvest. No positions inside it; its extremes remain as pools.
- Seek & DestroyA day profile that sweeps BOTH extremes without delivering any direction. With both sides taken before 10:30, you do not trade.
- MOC15:50–16:00: mandatory closing orders arrive that follow no technical logic. Not traded.
