DIGITAL TIME
THEORY: Data and
Application
369 Pattern
There are moments where the pattern breaks and the digital root
becomes a di0erent number and in these moments price 9uctuates and
creates potential in9ection points. Bn order to create consistency, we
must observe weeks worth of charts to see if there is congruency in this
idea.
There is a spike in the data plot, where the correlation for the
candle I2:+J creates a lag, causing the correlation to be signiUcant.
The root of hidden liGuidity and a digital root of →. Several of these
cross correlations can be conducted to then attain the time variables
of I2:+J, 1I:7I, 11:1I, 11:z2, 17:J+, 1z:I2 for the Pew 3ork session.
5ith the creation of these speciUc time variables on the ×Vaxis we can
then create a potential series of intervals where price can 9ow and come
to a halt depending on the 3Vaxis of price.
Nsing the ?ibonacci numbers of I.7%, I.z→, I.82, inner intervals can
be created inside these time variables to create even more intricate time
variables where price may decide to create in9ection points. Bnside
these inner cycles, the most prominent candles to watch are, the Yoot
qandles of I2:+J, 1I:Jz, 11:1I, 17:J+ and 1J:JI depending on the
1→ B4AP
This creates entry portals and exits for FD arrays in market maker
models, where a trader can time the market by entering at a speciUc
minute on a Yoot qandle. Frice creates the possibility of a crossed
market in one of these intervals throughout the session. During this
market behavior, the next interval will likely see an expansion, speciUV
cally if there is an SET (Divergence in Assets) and a higher time frame
FD array is met at that speciUc interval. The next Guestion is if this
idea can be applied to all sessionsX the idea that there exists Uxed interV
vals of time where price creates in9ection points and terminuses for
movements. Bn order to speed up the process, the geometric concept
of circles must be utiliWed. As mentioned, if the degrees of a circle are
divided in half, the digital root of that degree will always eGual 2. The
same idea can be said when the degrees are multiplied by 1II". So J8I,
would be %7I. 5hy does this matter and how can it be applied to a
market sessionj Bt matters because with the correct ?ibonacci numbers
surrounding the digital root of 2, extremely accurate intervals can be

Asia sessions are slower and more di’cult to trade than Huropean
or Porth American sessions. Therefore, due to the low trading volume
and high spreads that characteriWe the session, traders need to know
which ?orex pairs are best for trading. Bt is important to note that the
Asia Session is sometimes referred to as the Tokyo Session. -apan is the
third largest foreign exchange trading center, with the yen being the
third most traded currency. Bt accounts for 18" of all foreign exchange
transactions. The slow and calm nature of the Asia“Tokyo session
makes it an ideal period for traders to manage their trades. Traders
can explore the market through a riskVreward analysis. 5hen trading
during the Asian session, it is important to consider the pair with
the -apanese 3en. 3our trading strategy can also determine your pair
selection. Oowever, traders who want to make more proUts should
consider trading other Asian currencies. Some of the best pairs to trade
during the Asian session include: AND“-F3, HNY“-F3, -F3“NSD.
The Asian trading session begins every open market day at 1→:II
HST and ends at IJ:II HST. Trading hours overlap with Mondon tradV
ing in the last hour. Therefore, during the transition period between
Asia and Mondon, the Asian session will be more active. This is where
DBLBTAM TBEH TOHRY3 7+
Mondon hours then slightly overlap with the P3 session, but for
the purpose of a controlled ×Vaxis environment for the time variable,
we must cut the hours to the most e’cient manner possible using the
circle of 2.

Judas Cycle with Inner Intervals and Gann Box 15MIN PD array
The inner 0y0les for the Judas zy0le are 2959W, 2959–, 2952W. 4t
any one of these times, pri0e 0an reverse its dire0tion and 0reate an
inSe0tion point. -n this e(ample, it is no 0oin0iden0e pri0e reversed at
e(a0tly 2959W to buyside. Oere, the utili;ation of a standard deviation
on the xM-N 0andle order blo0k 0an be used to Und pri0e targets.
q-L-T4E T-MH TOHR3Y xx
The Judas Model, along with other models 0an have several terA
minuses for their respe0tive moves to end and that 0an be dedu0ed
by using higher time frame Dq arrays, standard deviations and other
time intervals. Dotential times where the Judas move will end 0an be
at the end of the Judas interval, 295W9, or at best 0ase s0enarios 2W5x1.
-n between those times, pri0e 0an 0ontinue its dire0tion if there is
no higher time frame Dq arrays in the way, as well as if the standard
deviation target has not been met yet. -n the same e(ample with 4pple,
pri0e was seeking FG Xq target and the ne(t intervals, leading into
Model 22 are6 295xG, 295GG and 29511. Rn0e pri0e rea0hed 295GG, it
had also rea0hed its AG Xq target and at this moment the algorithm
swit0hed to target sellside of the internal range. 4t that moment of
time, a trader 0an implore the same te0hniIue and use a standard
deviation on the low and high of the last x upA0lose 0andles to 0reate a
pri0e target for sellside.
xG -74N
The ne(t key aspe0t of this entire model and this e(ample is the
3oot zandle, 9:51x. This Root Candle is the most prominent of all
candles throughout the NY session, as pri0e often times retra0es ba0k to
this spe0iU0 0andle on most market session days. 4s mentioned, root
0andles 0an be utili;ed as draws of liIuidity, but also to distinguish disA
0ount and premium of an interval, spe0iU0ally the Judas Model time
interval. 4dd all 0omponents of time intervals, 21M-N Dq arrays,
and 3oot zandles and it makes trading e(tremely low risk and high
reward.
q-L-T4E T-MH TOHR3Y x1
There are several types of Judas Model swings, and the easiest out
of them all is when pri0e 0reates low resistan0e liIuidity before 9:511,
rea0hes dis0ount or premium into a 21M-N Dq array and inverses a
2M-N Dq array pri0e ine'0ien0y )8air value gapB. zombine al three
of these into steps and you will observe the easiest Judas Model ever.
The e(ample of 44DE above is a perfe0t e(ample as it meets all of that
0riteria. Velow, more e(amples are shown using several other ti0ker
symbols or HT8s.
The same idea 0an be utili;ed when there is low resistan0e liIuidity
towards the sellside. H(ample below. -n this 0ase, pri0e waited until
295W9 )the end of the Judas zy0leB to begin velo0ity towards the low
resistan0e liIuidity.
q-L-T4E T-MH TOHR3Y x–
There 0an be moments where this type of set up 0an fail, and for
that reason, the 21M-N 0hart must be observed with the 2M-N as
well. The higher time frame 0hart must be observed in tandem with
the 2M-N 0hart, otherwise there is no higher time frame bias. Di0tured
below is a set up that in0ludes a 21M-N X-V-, and is in premium of the
9:51x 3oot zandle. Dri0e rea0hes into that X-V- at 2959– and a trader
0an enter a low risk entry using a V-X- inversion or by entering at a
0omfortable level on the gann bo( levels. 4 trader will then know that
the Judas is seeking their bias if pri0e begins to move and 0ontinue to
move their desired dire0tion past 295W9, otherwise, pri0e might reverse
and seek e(ternal liIuidity.
-n the 0ase below, the higher time frame 0hart is seeking buyside and
understanding ma0ro time models is key, but nevertheless, a trader 0an
enter this Judas set up with low risk involved. Time will then let the
trader know if they are wrong if it reverses at a spe0iU0 time interval and
it begins to disrespe0t Dq arrays )V-X- s in this 0aseB. 4t 295W9, pri0e
x -74N
0ontinues towards buyside and 0loses above the 9.1 W1 level in the
21M-N Dq array, indi0ating it might be disrespe0ting that Dq array.
4s is the 0ase for all time models, time will let the trader know if they
are wrong about their bias by a 0ertain minute of the session and the
8ibona00i levels of a 21M-N Dq array will have the same impa0t on
pri0e. csing both time and pri0e in this manner, 0an mitigate further
loss on positions and keep risk tight and reward high. -n the e(ample
below, a 21M-N X-V- was inverted with a body 0andle 0lose above
before the Judas Model, indi0ating pri0e is seeking buyside. csing the
root 0andle of 9:51x and the gann bo(, a trader 0an time and enter a

short with at 9:511 until later. Dri0e then targets the above X-V- and
rea0hes it by 2959W. 4t 2952W, a trader 0an then enter a short based oC
that X-V- and have a low risk entry.
quring 0ertain sessions pri0e will begin to move with strong velo0A
ity right at 9:511 and if not then, then 2959W. -t is important to keep
an eye on 21M-N Dq arrays and 3oot zandles.

A fter the Judas Time Interval ends, the next time model interval
will be Model 11. In binary code, 11 translates to the decimal
number 3. The reason this model is named after the number 3, is to
allude and hide its real meaning. The power of 3. This Model more
often than not, under the right circumstances, creates a manipulation
on a higher time frame PD array after a small consolidation phase.
The power of 3 is a familiar concept to most ICT traders, for it uses
the idea of accumulation, manipulation and distribution based o a
higher time frame candle.G
DILITAE TIMH TOHRY4 k3
Power of 3
Bor this time model, along with the rest, it is vital to pay attention
to the open and close of the 12MIU candle in (uestion. If we are
to expect a manipulation on a PD array for this model, then the
12MIU candle in this interval must create a strong wic" with a body
candle close above the previous candle or invalidate a PD array on the
opposite curve of price.G
This time model ta"es place between 1;6S; to 1161;. The inner interV
vals are 1;63k, 1;6kk and 1;622 respectively.G
Model 11
Price should begin to move at the latest to its next draw at 1161;, the
end of the cycle and 1; minutes after the last 12MIU candle close. At
the earliest price can begin see"ing its draw at 1;63k or 1;6kk.GIf price
does not move after 116SQ, then we can expect chop until 116kQ and
at that point it8ll be a di erent model.
Terminus for this movement at best case scenarios will end at 1S632
and if it begins at 1;63k immediately, then at worst case scenarios the
movement will end at or slightly before 1161;.
uidity, then the trader can use ’D targets and an entry on a WI’I or
’IWI.
Chapter Six
11910 root candle holds the digital root of 3 and more often than
not is used as a draw to distinguish between premium and discount.
When price reaches a higher time frame PG array in this interval, it
will create a turtle soup based ok that PG array. Ftilizing a gann box
or a regular Jibonacci retracement on the PG array with the Bircle of
7 Jibonacci numbers mentioned previously, a trader can enter a high
probability and low ris: trade.

Velocity should begin at the latest, 12902. Defore that, it can begin at
any one of the inner intervals. Oow do you :now which one? Ybserve
the 15MIN candles of 11915-11930 and 11930-11945. Yne of these will
create the desired manipulation candle a trader is see:ing.
If Model 110 occurs, it is less li:ely that Model 1001 will occur and
instead that model will be used to create time distortion. Model 111
will then ta:e ekect and precedent. If there is a volatile udas and a
consolidated Model 11 time interval, then Model 110 will more than
li:ely occur with a manipulation ok the 11910 Coot Bandle.
Circle of 9 Session
This time model interval ta:es place bet,een 14O3k to 1YO09. Rne
of the largest of the time intervals for the 8z session. As the Circle
of 9 expands, so does the session time intervals of a market. The in-
ner intervals for this time model are 13O00C 13O40C 13OY0. The joot
Vandle is 14O3k. The beginning of the time interval. There is also an
outlier joot candle time ,ithin this cycleC 13O30 and another from the

complete the cycle.
Asia Session:
Damasu Model
T his model is the Judas of the Asia Session and the same concepts
and rules from the Judas NY session apply to this Model. Just
like Judas, this is the smallest time interval model of the session. It
ranges from the session open 18:00 to 19:01. It is the power of 3 of
a 1HOUR candle. In between this time, the inner intervals are 18:07,
18:22 and 18:34. The Root Candle is 18:07.
66 IVAN
This model holds the same implications as Judas, for it has a fake
out move that initially gets taken out by the next interval. It is either
used to engineer liquidity or to cause a fake out in the initial stage of
the Asian Session. Similarly to Judas, the easiest Damasu Model will
create engineered liquidity before 19:01. Thereafter or slightly before,
at 18:34 price will begin a low resistance liquidity run. Observing and
utilizing any 15MIN PD arrays, a trader can use this in combination
with time and this model to enter a high probability trade. Just as the
NY session has and uses the 09:53 candle, the Asia Session uses the
18:07 candle in the same manner. Wherein, it can seek out that Root
Candle at a later time in the session and use it as a method to gather
liquidity.

fair value gap, creating a low risk long on any 1MIN SIBI that became
inversed.
In this example, price waited to push above the root candle one last
time before 19:01 to then have a liquidity run to sellside. The forex
pair pushed into a 15MIN SIBI and went into premium to then take
out sellside, Fnishing the move at 19:01. -ocus is then on the power
of 3 for the 1 HOUR candle between 18:00 19:00.
Asia Session:
Osaka Model
At exactly 20:16, price entered a sell program after taking out the
internal low. As price moved into the next cycle and time model in-
terval, it used the 19:37 Root Candle as a draw before pushing down
72 IVAN
once again and Bnishing its move by the end of the next interval. In
the next example, the Osaka Model was used as an optimal trade entry
to the trend after tapping into a 15MIN SIKI. Thereafter price began
its move to sellside at the beginning of the next interval (21:14).
In the next example, this time interval created low resistance sellside
liquidity and went into premium above 19:37. Thereafter, price at
exactly 21:14, began the move to take out the low resistance liquidity.
DIGITAL TIME THEORY 73
Terminus for this potential low resistance liquidity run will at best
case scenarios be at the end of the yoto Time Model interval, 23:04,
before possible time distortion.
Chapter Eleven
Asia Session:
Kyoto Model
A fter Osaka, the Kyoto Time Model begins at 21:14 and ends at
23:04. The inner intervals are 21:26, 21:54, 22:16. The Root
Candle is 21:44. Price uses this time interval to create three possibilities
of price action. Time distortion, low resistance liquidity, or continu-
ation or reversal of the previous model, Osaka. In the example below,
price used this time interval to create low resistance buyside into an
untapped 15MIN BISI. Once that PD array was utilized, price began
to reverse at the end of the Kyoto Model interval 23:04.
DIGITAL TIME THEORY 75
In this next example, the low resistance liquidity was created within
the Osaka Model time interval. Price then went above the 21:44 Root
Candle and began its move to sellside at the 22:16 inner interval. The
move then ended once it reaches the previous root candle, 19:37 and
the end of the Kyoto Model Time Interval, 23:04.
In the next example, the Kyoto Model interval was used to create
time distortion. Why is this the case? Osaka Model was used to con-
tinue the Damasu Model. If the Damasu Model, just like Judas, creates
a substantial and large move, then Osaka will be used (just like Model
11) for continuation. Kyoto will then be used as an entry window
76 IVAN
depending where the higher time frame PD array is. Volatility should
then increase after the Kyoto Model interval is over at 23:04.
This model, along with other time models, can be used for trend
continuation as well. Price will often manipulate above the root candle
to then continue the move after a certain inner interval is over.
DIGITAL TIME THEORY 77
Asia Session:
Nagasaki Model
Nagasaki Model
IGAGTLE TGMH TOHYC- R7
The ideal time for price to begin volatility would be the 4909R inner
interval2 Gn most cases, price will begin volatility slightly after this time2
Kelow are two clear examples of this, as well as the possible volatility
involved2
D4 G5LN
Ls with other time based models, inner intervals guide a trader with
the exact timing of when volatility should increase on the xqaxis and
the root candle dictates where in premium or discount it sits at on the
yqaxis2 Brice should also be observed, once again through 9(MGN BI
arrays2 Kelow is an example of the maSor volatility that can occur in this
model2 Brice returned to the 9D099 Coot 8andle )similar to the 470(:

these inner inner intervals 2
Chapter Thirteen
London Session:
Turncoat Model
S imilarly to Judas and the Damasu time based models, the Turn-
coat Model is the "Judas of the London Session". This is the initial
fake out move of the session. The London session, although it overlaps
with NY will be de0ned as 3:933 to 3(9:3 )NY open4. This time based
model, Turncoat, ranges from 3:933 to 3:955. The inner intervals are
3:931, 3:962 and 3:9R1. The Coot jandle, xust like the 3(91: Coot
jandle, is 3:96R and can be eItended out to the rest of the session.
q5 VA8N
The best Turncoat Model will create liPuidity that reprices into
a 61MVN GD array. This creates a low risk entry based oE standard
deviations. Aolatility should increase by the 3:9R1 inner interval or at
the end of the Turncoat model, 3:955. The terminus for this type of
move will be 319R3 in most cases.
Turncoat: EURUSD

GIAITEL TIMH TOHYRq 91
This time model resembles Model 11 and the Ysaka Model, for
both occur after their respective fake out moves of the session. It is
important to focus on solely the Turncoat and Bishop Root Dandles
for this time interval.
Bishop: GBPUSD
London Session:
Knight Model
The time interval begins at 05:20 and ends at 06:39. The inner
intervals are 05:29, 05:48 and 06:04. The Root candle is 05:29. Below
is an example of a market maker buy model for this time interval. Price
reached into a 15MIN BISI and was below the Knight Model root
candle. Volatility resumed to buyside at the 06:04 inner interval.
94 IVAN
This model, along with all the other time models, works on crypto
as well. Below are examples of market maker models occurring in this
time interval for Dogecoin.
Any BISI or SIBI on the 3MIN or 6MIN time frames can be used
for entries. Terminus for the move below is the end of the Knight
Model interval, 06:39.
London Session:
Big Ben Model
T he last time based model for the London Session is the Big Ben
Model. Why is it called the Big Ben Model? For the potential
volatility that can occur with this time based model. It is very im-
portant to be aware of any news events that may occur throughout
this interval, whether it is PPI, CPI, etc. The interval begins at 06:39
and ends at 09:30. The largest of the intervals in the London Session.
Similarly to the Nagasaki Model in the Asia Session and Model 111
in the NY session, this model can see an explosion in volatility and
must be used with caution. The inner intervals are 06:58, 07:41 and
08:15. The Root candle is 06:58. It is important to focus on both
the Turncoat root candle, 03:12 and the Big Ben Model root candle,
06:58. Below is a perfect example as to why this may be the case. Price
refers to both candles in extreme volatile cases.
DIGITAL TIME THEORY 97
Big Ben: Price allocation between 03:12 and 06:58 root candles (NQ)
If the session root candle, 03:12, is at the opposite side of the price
axis, then it is often the target for liquidity, for root candles are hidden
pools of liquidity.
Now, if the rest of the session has been volatile and has had pristine
price delivery, then the Big Ben time interval will be used for time
distortion until the New York Session open.

The same type of volatility was in3ected in the next example for
META. In this case a large amount of sellside was built throughout
the weekly session. qrice then shifted to sellside between the inner
intervals of 0.86 and 0.5625.
The ideal set up for this model will have the same characteristics
as the NY session model, Model 111. Either there will engineered

9ust like the other time based models, if the previous time based
models had ma3or volatility and swing moves between higher time

tortion.
FOREX Pairs:
Above, we can see where time distortion occurred within the inner
intervals. It is of no coincidence. Time is fractal, along with price on
the x and y axes of a chart. 9ust as time has been expanded into the
weekly session, it could be expanded into the yearly session of a stock,
crypto or forex pair.

can the yearly session. 9ith the utiliBation of the circle of $, the same
models can be expanded to the yearly session. Velow is an example on
2N0EA for the year of PFPP.
Vecause these time models are within the yearly sessions, the moves
will become substantially larger. This implies that the daily chart must
be used for entries and the monthly chart must be used for 7E arrays.
The only discrepancy will be during leap years and forex pairs or
crypto (slight alteration of dates depending on the year). Euring
these years, there will be a one day discrepancy. Thus, the yearly inter-
vals are from the yearly open to 6eb Wzth, to Day WPth, to July P8th to
the yearly close for most ticker symbols. The yearly root candle will be
the Fj JAN candle. Vecause forex pairs and crypto have more trading
days available, the time intervals and root candles will slightly alter. It
is important to utilize the circle of 9 bvs pre0iously mentioned
to alter the inter0als for crypto or forex pairs (.1225,3 .16 3

The Mrst yearly model, the Roodwink Dodel, begins at the begin-
ning of the year and ends on 6eb Wzth. The inner intervals are JAN

Fjth yearly root candle.
This time model, Qust like Judas, can see a sharp reversal at the
opening interval from previous price action and run until the end of
the time mode interval. It can also engineer li5uidity that will get taken
out in the next time model. In the example above and below with the

Macro Session
(Yearly): Model 33
This time based model has the same concepts as Model 11, Osaka,
Bishop and Ares time models. Time and price are fractal. In the above
example, there is a clear depiction of where price uSctSates aroSnd
certain time intervals. In combination with these time intervals and
monthly PD arrays, a trader can enter a low risk and high reward set
Sp. This is the exact same as entering on a Model 11 long. $XOM
tapped into a monthly BI-I and began to expand towards bSyside at
the inner interval of MAR 16th. After reaching the inner interval of
APR 04th, price stalled.
For forex pairs and crypto, as mentioned, the time intervals will
diJer slightly. Below is an example of Model 33 being StiliUed by the
forex pair $9PYEqR. After the inner interval of APR 04th and after
repricing to the monthly -IBI above, price uSshed towards sellside.
The time intervals were altered Ssing the circle of b nSmbers. The
yearly interval was from the rst date of the forex pair Sntil the next
year begins.
potential terminSs for this model at best case scenarios can be the end
of the next larger time interval, the Time Distortion Model, 9qL 27th.
Below is a perfect representation of all of this with the stock, $8FLX.

Distortion Model
The next example is the same concept with the stock $AMZN ,
however it is after price reached sellside and a monthly BISI. Price
was in limbo until the time interval was over. On most occasions, just
like Kyoto and Knight, price uses time within these models to gather
liquidity before resuming its volatility after the interval is over.
142 IVAN
This model, along with the Kyoto and Knight Model, can also be
used as entry to the trend if Model 33 is still in occurrence. If the entire
yearly session has been generating buyside or sellside and or this time
interval (Time Distortion) has been in a strong consolidation, then
the last yearly session time model will be explosive in nature. It is what
makes stocks, futures and cryptos leave many people in disbelief. It is
the IMP 9 Model.

T his last time model is the apex of all time and price. Above it is
quadrennial sessions, and that is up to the reader to decipher.
The tools have been described. High frequency trading became in
rapid use after 1983. Patterns are derived and utilized. Ghost patterns.
The last time model represents the fractal nature of all the time models
based of the x and y axes of a chart. Like the Model 111, Nagasaki, Big
Ben and Icarus time models, this last model, IMP 9, is explosive in
nature if the right conditions are met. Think about when most stock
market crashes occur.. October. What are the conditions? Low resis-
tance liquidity and time distortion in the last model or throughout
the yearly session. Depending on the stock, forex pair or crypto the
intervals may di0er, but the intervals will be between the 5.62V6 and
1 4bs of the yearly session. The inner time 4bs will be the same 4bs

want to enter the Warkets, whether they are shorting or longing the
Warkets. In order to assure that their li8uidity gets ?lled, they take out
a large aWount of sWaller traders through a li8uidity sweep or purge.
They are purging the li8uidity beneath or abome an old low or high.
Taking out buy stops and sell stops. After this action is coWpleted, all
premious low resistance li8uidity will be targeted. H8ual highs or e8ual
lows are often easy targets for institutional players. If there is a higher
tiWe fraWe ine:ciency of li8uidity, then can also be an easy target
for institutions. This makes the case and point that the upmost

Risk Management
T raders run the risk of loss on every trade, and even the most
successful traders almost always lose money. Your long-term
success as a trader is determined by your winning percentage and the
size of your proNts and losses. 'o matter how much you win, if you
donAt manage your risks, your account can go bankrupt. q proper risk
management strategy is reIuired to protect traders from catastrophic
losses. This means you need to determine your risk tolerance, under-
stand the risk-reward ratio of each trade, and take steps to protect
yourself from long-term risk.
numbers and they lead to long-term proNts, then you are well on your
way to trading success. 'ot knowing these numbers puts your trading
account at risk.
Think of two scenarios. The Nrst trader has a horrible risk to reward
track record and is consistently using more than 8%2 or $%2 of their
portfolio into every trade. The outcome that they will destroy their
account before proNtability is higher than that of the opposite trader.
The second trader has a great risk to reward track record and is con-
sistently risking only 82 or 92 of their account on every trade. The
outcome that they will be proNtable over time is more likely because
they have more opportunities. A higher risk versus low reward
track record is not sustainable.
