A good simple answer.
WBTB at 4am to maximise lucid dream chances and length.

Haha, it'd be great if it really was at 4am every morning for everybody. Unfortunately, it varies.
Although it varies, the general rule is that a full sleep cycle (both NREM and REM) lasts 90 minutes. So, set your alarm clock at 90 minute intervals.
If you keep a strict sleep schedule (go to bed and wake up the same time every day, including weekends), then you *can*, over time, predict exactly when you'll be dreaming.
