# Filters

The **Turtle Soup Model** allows traders to filter potential setups by specific **Killzones**, such as Asia, London, NY AM, NY Launch, and NY Open.

These Killzones correspond to key periods of market activity, where liquidity and volatility are typically more pronounced, giving traders an advantage in identifying high-probability setups.

<table><thead><tr><th width="224.4140625"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Asia (20:00 - 00:00)</td><td>Marks the start of the trading day with moderate volatility. Often sets up liquidity levels that later sessions may target.</td></tr><tr><td>London (02:00 - 05:00)</td><td>High-volume session as major European markets open. Often establishes the day’s directional bias with strong institutional activity.</td></tr><tr><td>NY AM (09:30 - 11:00)</td><td>U.S. equity market open. A key window for volatility spikes and liquidity grabs, making it ideal for Turtle Soup reversals.</td></tr><tr><td>NY Launch (12:00 - 13:00)</td><td>Midday session where markets often pause or reverse. Useful for identifying continuation or reversal patterns.</td></tr><tr><td>NY PM (13:30 - 16:00)</td><td>Final hours of the U.S. session. Often sees profit-taking and closing moves, creating opportunities for late-day setups.</td></tr></tbody></table>

Additionally, the model provides the flexibility to filter by **customer-defined hours ranges**, allowing users to tailor the analysis to their preferred trading times or specific market conditions.

This feature enhances the model’s adaptability, ensuring that traders can focus on the timeframes that align with their strategy and trading objectives, improving the overall effectiveness of their trades.
