Going to bed for a 4:44 am alarm

Asleep by 7:29 pm — 6 full sleep cycles, about 9 hours
Asleep by 8:59 pm — 5 full sleep cycles, about 7 hours
Asleep by 10:29 pm — 4 full sleep cycles, about 6 hours

A sleep cycle runs about 90 minutes, and most people take around 15 minutes to drop off. Waking at the end of a cycle feels easier than waking in the middle of one.

Online alarm clock for 4:44 am

Pulling yourself away from unfinished work is the hard part when the US share market opens at 4:44 am. An alarm at that exact time can mark the switch from whatever has your attention to checking the opening moves. With 5:00 am close behind, those first minutes can be reserved for getting the screen, notes and watchlist ready.

Because this reminder sits well before dawn, the phone or computer may fall asleep long before it is meant to sound. The time can be entered and the alarm left visible while the machine stays awake, with its volume checked beforehand. This browser alarm cannot bring you back to the market if its page has been closed or the phone or computer has entered sleep mode.

Working through a market opening at this hour can feel quite different during a hot Australian summer night. If the air conditioner is running, a moderate setting and a fan aimed away from papers can keep the desk comfortable without turning the room icy. Keeping water beside the workstation also avoids a trip to the kitchen just as 4:44 am arrives.

Common questions

Can I set more than one alarm at a time?

This page is built around a single alarm at a time. For multiple alarms, open a separate tab for each one and set a different time in each, keeping every tab open until it's rung.

Why use a browser alarm instead of my phone's built-in one?

Mainly for reliability against silent mode, do-not-disturb, or a phone left charging out of earshot. It's a useful backup or a desk-based alternative, though it depends on this tab staying open rather than running in the background of your phone.

Is there a cost to use this?

No, it's free, with no sign-up and no limit on how many times you set it. It just needs the tab left open until the time you've chosen arrives.

Will the alarm still ring if I close the browser tab?

No. The alarm only runs while this tab stays open — closing it, or closing the browser entirely, stops the countdown before it can ring. Keep the tab open in the background if you need it to go off later.
