So what is the logic?
You divide the day into 6 periods, and they alternate directions?
For example:

09:30 -> 10:00 UP
10:00 -> 10:45 DOWN
10:45 -> 12:45 UP
12:45 -> 02:00 DOWN
02:00 -> 03:00 UP
03:00 -> 04:00 DOWN

@Fadi
The logic is the time period vs. the price movement

As I’ve posted in the post #1: the price moves can happen in respect to the time of the day and I believe there is a some kind of correlation between time of the day and price movement.

This is why I've started this thread to see if other traders noticed similar market behaviour.

yes there are key times and price always moves within a 30min window at those key times, now how you trade at these times is what matters. My key times are a little different from urs but close, I dont even think about them anymore I just know where there at and trade accordingly

Yeah I guess, to each his own subdivision of the trading day and week.
For me, I always favor the upside bias between 11h30 and 2h30 roughly, this is the time when the big boys are out having a steak and few laughs, thus only small retail investors in the arena trading from the long side and creating a light float up effect. Also, I visually rarely to never short in that time frame if trading intraday, volume is lightest of the day.

Exactly!

The truth is that trading doesn't have to be more difficult than one choose for it to be.
And only traders make the trading more complicated than it is -- big volume, momentum down, who’s buying , why the resistance line fail etc. I know… I know … I’m going too far but really it doesn’t have to be so complicated.

agree with you and @Fadi at these key times things are happened.... AM times- positioning oneself for day, lunch reversal, Bonds hedging nothing new just need to be aware of it..my 2 cents

so you just trade reverse at these times all thru the day, is that what ur saying? if so would you share a chart showing your Ninja trade markers so I can see and understand better...picture worth a thousand words
