ICT Kill Zones, Silver Bullet Windows, and Fair Value Gaps

Summary

This document describes an ICT-style chart indicator that marks trading-session windows, shorter Silver Bullet periods, and Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). It gives New York time ranges for the Asian, London, New York, and London-close Kill Zones, and for three Silver Bullet windows. The indicator also draws bullish and bearish gaps based on the relationship between selected bars, with settings for minimum gap size and visual segmentation.

The practical approach is to use these chart markings to focus attention on periods that the method associates with liquidity or volatility, and to watch gaps as possible entry or reversal areas. The text offers illustrative scenarios, such as monitoring Asian-session accumulation ahead of London or watching for a sharp move during a New York window; it provides no measured performance results or validation. The time offset, chart platform, bar interval, and configurable thresholds affect how markings appear. The document presents the indicator as an analysis aid, so its signals alone do not establish a reliable trading edge.

Key ideas

• The indicator highlights four Kill Zones associated with major trading sessions.
• It marks three shorter Silver Bullet windows within the trading day.
• Fair Value Gaps are drawn where rapid price movement leaves a price interval between bars.
• Settings control time adjustment, display elements, gap thresholds, and chart appearance.
• The examples suggest using the markings to guide attention, but provide no performance evidence.
