The midnight open as a bias anchor
Sessions & Killzones
One simple line for the day
The midnight New York open, the price at 12 AM ET, is used as a simple reference line. Trading above it for the day leans bullish bias, trading below it leans bearish bias.
A discounted spot on a bearish day
On an expected down day, a common read is to look for shorts at or above the midnight open, treating any push back up to that line as a discounted spot to sell from.
A bias tool, not a full trigger
The midnight open is a bias tool, not a trade signal by itself. It still needs structure, a sweep, or an FVG nearby before it becomes an actual entry.
