ICT Quarterly Theory — 06:00 to 12:00 (NY) Micro-Quarters

This tool focuses on the 06:00–12:00 New York time window and subdivides it into four equal “micro-quarters,” each 90 minutes long. In many ICT layouts this block is treated as a single higher-level quarter; here we break it into a finer structure to help you frame intraday narratives, liquidity runs, and session shifts with consistent time anchors.

How it’s partitioned

q1: 06:00 → 07:30 (NY)

q2: 07:30 → 09:00 (NY)

q3: 09:00 → 10:30 (NY)

q4: 10:30 → 12:00 (NY)

Each boundary is plotted at the exact start time, so you can see where one 90-minute cycle ends and the next begins. Labels can be placed above or below price, and colors/styles are configurable to match your chart.

Why it’s useful

Provides fixed time scaffolding for building AM session bias, execution windows, and narrative transitions.

Helps distinguish pre-cash open, cash open, and late-AM distribution/accumulation phases without guessing.

Standardizes replay and journaling: the same 90-minute checkpoints every day.

Key features

NY-time anchored (handles DST automatically through TradingView’s exchange time).

Four precise 90-minute segments inside the 06:00–12:00 block.

Customizable line styles, colors, and label placement (above/below).

Optional visibility controls to keep charts clean.

Note: Some ICT mappings name the 06:00–12:00 block differently (e.g., Q2 vs. Q3). This indicator uses the same time bounds regardless of the label you prefer; you can rename the macro label in settings if desired.

Disclaimer: Time framing does not guarantee outcomes. Use alongside your own analysis, risk management, and execution plan.
