Strefa Tradingu · ICT · Quick cheat sheet
Which timezone do you count killzones and the open from?
New York. Always.
All of ICT — the open, the killzones, the 10:00 hour — runs on New York time. The indicator does too. Chicago is irrelevant here.
Same moment — two different axis labels

10:00 NY = 09:00 Chicago — same moment, same candle. The killzone box doesn't move; only the number on the axis changes.
Set it once and forget it — 10 seconds:

- Select the New York timezone.
- Done — the axis matches ICT. 10:00 means 10:00, no math in your head.
