The energy in the TEDx hall surged as Joseph Plazo announced that he would reveal the institutional blueprint for navigating the most violent, opportunity-rich window in the market.
Representing the research discipline of Plazo Sullivan Roche Capital, Plazo explained that the 9:30 AM open isn’t random volatility—it’s structured, predictable, and algorithmically orchestrated.
Plazo’s First TEDx Revelation
Plazo illustrated that the opening print is designed to facilitate institutional execution, not retail convenience.
Where Most Traders Lose Immediately
According to Plazo, this is the “institutional collection phase”—a predictable maneuver disguised as chaos.
The Plazo Principle: Wait check here for the Kill Shot
Plazo revealed that the first true signal comes when the market delivers a displacement candle—a powerful, directional move showing where smart money has chosen to go.
4. The NY Open Runs on Liquidity, Not Indicators
He explained that institutions trade liquidity sweeps, Fair Value Gaps, pre-market imbalances, and opening range deviations—not moving averages.
5. The Opening Range Strategy
A break and retest of this range—combined with displacement and a liquidity sweep—creates one of the highest-probability trades of the entire day.
What the Audience Never Expected
When the talk ended, the crowd understood something they’d never considered:
the New York Open isn’t chaotic—it’s engineered.
And if you learn the engineering, you learn the trade.
Joseph Plazo transformed the NY Open from a mystery into a map—one that traders can follow with confidence, discipline, and institutional logic.
