Summary

TLDRThe video teaches traders how to utilize specific market conditions and ICT tools to identify high-probability trade setups. It outlines four key market contexts: expansion, retracement, reversal, and consolidation. Each context is coupled with a corresponding ICT concept - order blocks, liquidity gaps/voids, liquidity pulls, or equilibrium. By correctly identifying the current market condition and applying the paired ICT tool, traders can anticipate market maker intentions and pinpoint impending moves with greater accuracy. Consistent practice identifying trade setup elements across various pairs and timeframes builds skills for consistent profitability.
