Q & A
What is the main issue with relying solely on ICT analysis for trading?
-The main issue is that despite having the tools and knowledge to analyze charts and identify bank trades, traders often impulsively use them without a clear strategy, leading to missed opportunities and poor decision-making.
What does the speaker claim to offer in the video?
-The speaker claims to offer a proven trading strategy that works for day traders and swing traders across various markets, along with proof and examples on a chart.
What is the significance of 'displacement' in the trading strategy presented?
-Displacement is crucial as it confirms whether the market is likely to reverse. Without displacement, there is no clear indication of a potential reversal, making it a guiding light for traders.
Why is it important to focus on trading during the 'session'?
-Trading during the session is important because it identifies high probability times for entries to take place, avoiding out-of-session trades that may not be as reliable.
What role does 'fair value gap' play in the trading strategy?
-A fair value gap is used for entry points in the strategy. It is the closest gap to the current price that has not been mitigated by the market, indicating a potential area for price reversal.
What is the recommended risk-to-reward ratio for this trading strategy?
-A fixed two-to-one risk-to-reward ratio is recommended, as it allows traders to make significant profits even with a mediocre win rate.
How does the speaker suggest managing trades after entry?
-The speaker suggests not using break-even stops or active trade management. Instead, set a fixed two-to-one risk-to-reward ratio and let the trade ride, only managing the trade if specific conditions related to session timing or risk of gapping occur.
What is the purpose of the 'liquidity rate structure' in the strategy?
-The liquidity rate structure serves as the point where stop losses are set, beyond the lowest point or the furthest point into the liquidity rate, to protect against potential price reversals.
How does the speaker define 'higher time frame' and 'lower time frame' in the context of this strategy?
-The higher time frame (HTF) and lower time frame (LTF) are relative to the trader's style. For day traders, HTF could be the 4-hour chart, and LTF the 1-minute chart. For swing traders, HTF could be the weekly chart, and LTF the daily chart. These time frames are used to identify liquidity rates and displacement shifts.
What is the speaker's view on the importance of having a trading manual or strategy?
-The speaker believes that having a trading manual or strategy is essential for success in the market. It guides traders through emotional challenges and helps in making informed decisions, preventing emotional-driven mistakes.
What is the speaker's offer regarding personal mentorship?
-The speaker is offering personal mentorship to a select few students who qualify. The mentorship will involve working with students from the start until they get funded, regardless of their experience level.

Transcripts
look ICT analysis is completely useless
sure there are dozens of different
abbreviations that will teach you how to
mark up your chart like a pro and even
how to identify where the banks trade
and all this but for some reason you
still can't even make more money than an
average job with the analysis alone you
see the problem is not that you don't
know how to mark up the chart or do
analysis but the problem is you have all
of these tools at your disposal and you
just impulsively use them to find trades
without thinking what you're doing or
maybe you have so much knowledge that
you can't even pull the trigger and you
hesitate while great trades pass you by
this is very common among ICT Traders
but as a six-figure funded ICT Trader
who has helped hundreds of other Traders
do the same I decided to make this video
sharing my bread and butter set up that
got me half a million dollars in prop
from Capital to trade with I'm going to
show you a strategy that works for day
Traders it works for swing Traders no
matter what Market you trade whether
it's Forex crypto indices Metals stocks
whatever it's going to help you quit
your job and become a full-time funded
Trader I'm going to show you proof of
this and multiple exam pulls on a chart
so you can actually take action on this
information and use it to see the same
success that myself and many others have
regardless of your experience level as
an ICT Trader this is going to work for
you very easily not only that but pay
very very close attention to this video
for directions to enter to win a
giveaway for a funded challenge for you
to try the strategy on yourself enough
for the Chit Chat let's go ahead and hop
on a chart without a strategy you are
nothing but a hopeless Gambler if you do
not dedicate yourself to connect the
dots that ICT has left us then you will
be left with endless opportunities
sounds amazing right endless opportunity
and I'm sure that if you're a beginner
Trader you think that sounds great but
the problem is that these are not all
good opportunities and the bad ones in
between the good ones will destroy you
most of you started trading for the
freedom that it provides and trading we
do have unlimited freedom but with this
comes a very big problem because once
the markets are presented to you you see
an endless source of wealth and
opportunity but the more you put
yourself out there without a strategy
the more likely you are R to become one
of the ninety percent of traders who
fail the only way to succeed in the
market is to have a manual to guide you
through when your emotions are getting
the best to you because if you let your
emotions make decisions for you in the
markets you will be devoured and in this
video I'm going to give you exactly that
I'm going to give you a step-by-step
manual on how to trade and this doesn't
matter what Market you trade it doesn't
matter if you're a swing Trader or a day
trader I'm going to give you something
that you can pass prop from challenges
something that you can use to stack up
your personal account and overall
something that's going to give you
Clarity in ICT forever so the first step
to the strategy is going to be our
higher time frame liquidity rate so what
is a high time frame or HTF well that's
going to be different for every single
one of you guys so make sure to pay
close attention to figure out what your
high time frame is going to be next what
we're going to require is displacement
with a lower time frame shift and just
like the higher time frame I need you to
pay very close attention because your
lower time frame is also going to depend
on your type of trading so pay very
close attention and make sure that you
get these time frames right but what
we're going to want to see is after we
get beyond the higher time frame
liquidity and I want to be clear this
doesn't have to be equal highs it can be
any higher time frame swing high or
swing low it does not matter but after
we get above or beyond that point what
we want to see is a market structure
shift with displacement now the
displacement is the most important part
because if you don't have displacement
then you don't know if we're actually
going to reverse so if you have some
tiny little move under a low what's
going to actually happen most the time
is it's going to continue so
displacement is our Guiding Light
without displacement you have nothing so
once we get our displacement with a
lower time frame shift what we're going
to be looking for next is a fair value
Gap we're not going to be using Breakers
or order blocks in this strategy it's
just going to be fair value gaps now
this next part is extremely important
for the strategy to work is it has to
happen during the session so whenever I
say session I don't mean kill zones so
if you're trading euro dollar it needs
to be happening during one of the
session means that the euro dollar is
traded in meaning the London session or
the New York session we're not going to
be taking entries on the Asian session
on this pair but let's say if you're
trading something like usdjpy or AUD USD
that trades during the Aza session you
can because it's during its session so
if it's an Asia pair and you can trade
it during Asia session if it's a London
pair meaning the Euro or the pound you
can trade it during London session if it
has USD in it you can trade it during
New York session for indices that is New
York session for crypto you can trade it
during New York or London session but it
has to be during session this is
important because we're trying to
identify the high probability times
where these entries are going to take
place you're not going to want to take
these out of session and as with any
strategy you need to follow this to a t
here in one second we're going to go
over some examples on a live chart so
stay tuned so we're going to do is we're
going to put our entry on this fair
value Gap and then we're going to put
our stop loss Beyond The Lick raid
structure so what is liquid structure it
is the furthest point after we've tapped
into these higher time frame liquidity
rate it's not going to be the most
recent swing low or the High where the
displacement is we're going to be
putting it at the furthest high that was
made and as for the fair value Gap I'm
going to get this question a lot so I'm
going to go ahead and answer it let's
say if there are two fair value gaps
that are created we're going to use the
closest one let's say if another fair
value Gap is created without being
mitigated meaning it price did not tap
into it so we have a third fair value
Gap we're going to be using that fair
value Gap it is always going to be the
closest fair value Gap to current price
so these stops are going to be beyond
the liquidity rate structure next to
take the thought out of profit taking
because
the most important thing in trading is
not your entry the most important thing
in trading is your exit now before you
combat me on this think about it like
this when do you actually make money are
you paid when you enter a trade or when
you exit and next I want you to think
about how many good trades that you've
had that either went back to your
original entry and stopped you at a
break even or For Worse stop you up for
a loss after there was great profits
involved now on the now there is some
duality of this because you don't want
to take profits too early now the
solution to this that has helped me and
many of my funded friends is that you
want to put a fixed risk to reward now I
love two to one risk to reward you can
make a lot of money with a mediocre win
rate with two to one risk to reward so
we're going to be using a fixed two to
one risk to reward now it's normal to
get an entry and then price can move
around it can come back up it might come
up to this fair value Gap up here and
that's okay and for that reason we're
not going to put Break Even stops we're
not going to do any active trade
management once we set our limits on
that fair value Gap and our stoplet and
our stop loss beyond the liquidity rate
structure we're just going to set a
fixed two to one risk to reward and let
it ride now the only variable to this is
that if you are required by the rules of
your prop firm to close before the end
of a session or if price is still very
close to your entry and you don't want
to risk being gapped on at the open like
if you trade indices and the market
closes from five to six you don't want
to just hold a trade and risk the market
gapping up due to some kind of news or
some kind of freak accident or freak of
nature Market incident because that does
happen so that is the only time you
manage the trade in that way so back to
what I was saying about what your higher
time frame or what your lower time frame
strategy is so this is where this
strategy becomes useful for literally
any Trader it doesn't matter what Market
you trade so if you're not asking the
comments I'm gonna go ahead and answer
you now this works with Forex this works
with crypto this works with indices this
works with stocks this works with Metals
it works with everything because price
is booked the same across all markets so
what is your high time frame and what is
your lower time frame so let's take a
look at this for a second so for those
of you who are day trading meaning you
have a lot of time to trade you're
sitting at your desk every morning
you're going to want to focus on these
sets of time frames right here now if
you are more of a swing Trader you're
going to want to focus on these higher
two which is the weekly as your high
time frame or the daily as your high
time frame it is the same strategy for
all of these different time frame
combinations nothing changes when you're
using different combinations it's just
the time frame you're using that's it
that's all it changes it doesn't change
for any markets it does not change okay
now do not try something different do
not say okay well I like the weekly
chart but I also like the 15 minute I'm
going to use the weekly to 15. if you
try that it's not going to work so
follow the directions I'm giving you
here exactly don't ask me can I change
this can I change that just follow the
directions I'm giving you also if you
haven't already please like And
subscribe to my channel I give out a ton
of free education here and on Twitter or
on my other platform so check them out
as well and make sure to stay on the
lookout because because next week I am
opening the doors to a personal
mentorship to a select few students who
qualify and I'm going to be working with
the students literally from the time
that they start until they get funded I
don't care your experience level I do
not care how long it takes I will work
with you I will trade live with you
until you get funded so pay very close
attention because next week there's
going to be some big information
dropping about that and later in this
video I'm also going to be giving away a
funded challenge so pay very close
attentions for instructions on how to
enter that as well so now we've learned
it on a whiteboard which is cool let's
go learn it where it actually matters
which is on the chart so let's look at
our first example which is on NASDAQ now
this happened on March 13th 2023 and if
we go to the daily chart I know it's a
little bit messy right here but all that
matters here remember all that matters
on this daily chart so we're gonna go
back to this example is that there is a
higher time frame swing point which is
taken all right so let's go back is
there a higher time frame swing point
taken right here because remember our
daily is our higher time frame if we're
going to use a one hour entry which is
what this example is so the daily low
was taken and then what are we waiting
for we're going to wait for a
displacement shift in structure that
gives us an entry during session so
before you talk about this over here so
first of all there is no displacement
there that is not a displacement the
market gets Beyond this consolidates and
then reverses and I want you also to
notice what time this was happening at
it's happening at 11 or 10 pm at night
we're not going to be trading indices
during the age of session right so don't
pay attention to anything that's not
during session but what but let's take a
look at what happens the next day during
the New York session we get another dig
into this liquidity pool that's okay it
doesn't have to be the first low that's
made it's just once price is under this
level down here it's kind of in that
land where we're looking for the market
to reverse so this displacement right
step two displacement with a lower time
frame shift gives us our confirmation
that the stops are indeed being absorbed
and the market is going to reverse and
then after that we're going to wait for
our entry during the New York sessions
so the reason I marked this was just
show you the time of Entry this is 1 pm
I'm not saying 1 pm is the only time you
can take it it's just I'm showing you
that it happened during the New York
session so that is where the entry
occurred you can see the market tapped
into this fair value Gap it came in a
couple times after that dug in there dug
in there that's okay like we said we're
not going to break even our stops
because we need to make sure that the
market does not come and tag us out to
tag into some kind of lower price
delivery rate because it very well might
that is step three entry during session
step four we're putting our stops at the
lowest point or the lick rate structure
so it's just the furthest point that was
made before this displacement shift and
then after that just a fixed two to one
take profit you can see that hit pretty
nicely on to the next example for this
we're going to be using euro dollar with
a five minute as our lower time frame
meaning the one hour is going to be our
higher time frame so if we go to the one
hour take a peek there is a low notice
this isn't some kind of major swing low
it didn't cause any kind of major
structure it's just a low so that what
does that mean it's a a candle that has
a lower low than the candles next to it
it's a three bar pattern this is the low
it can be any high or any low so we've
established that step one is complete
that's a higher time frame liquidity
rate step two is displacement with a
lower time frame shift so we've got a
nice candle closure up above this and
this is also happening during the London
session remember this is euro dollar
it's a London traded pair and we leave
and we are left with this nice fair
value Gap right here the market comes
down during London session gives us our
fair value Gap entry during the session
we're putting our stops under this low
and a fixed two to one target notice
we're not using liquidity to Target
notice we're not using any of that we're
just using a fixed two to one target
this is going to take the thought out of
trading and trust me a lot of traders
that are great at finding entries they
suck at finding exits or they suck at
trade management so this strategy
protects you from yourself and allows
you to have a very mechanical way of
operating because once that button is
clicked the emotions set in and once the
emotions set in all the decisions should
have been made before that right you
don't even making decisions while the
emotion has set in the next example
we're going to look at is es on the one
minute so remember if we're using the
one minute remember that our higher time
frame is the 15 minute
so let's look at the 15 minute and we
see there was a liquidity rate that
happened we took out this High over here
also this is happening right after the
New York open ICT 2022 model so we have
our higher time frame liquidity rate
which is step one step two is we got our
displacement with a lower time frame
shift so we got a closure under the low
to keep things mechanical we can just
use a closure under the low but this has
to happen during session because notice
how we still do get this closure right
here but it's not happening during the
session right so that's very important I
cannot stress that enough before people
go in the comments and say oh well
example one add it close it's not during
the session okay so we have this
happening during the session and then we
get our fair value Gap entry also during
the session you see it's 10 13 a.m
that's prime time for reversals on
indices the market digs into that fair
value Gap comes back into it and then it
goes straight to our two to one wrist
reward TP and for you swing Traders I'm
going to show you how you could have
caught a Bitcoin move that happened
recently that a lot of people missed so
if we go to our four hour chart which is
going to be our lower time frame here
yes the four hour can be a lower time
frame so something that a lot of people
don't understand is they think higher
time frame is a universal term a higher
time frame to a scalping Trader is
different than a higher time frame to a
swing Trader yes the daily and the
weekly time frame should always be paid
attention to for bias and they are
considered the universal higher time
frames but for this strategy and for the
terminology of saying higher time frame
or lower time frame if we're using the
four hour for entry then we're going to
be using the weekly for our higher time
frame so so if we're going on the weekly
we have a low remember it's any candle
that has a higher low on each side this
meets that criteria that's Step One is
price digging under that and once priced
once price digs under that we're looking
for what a displacement with a lower
time frame shift which is what we get
right here the market smashes up creates
this fair value Gap here and then we get
our fair value Gap entry during the
session and notice the time it's 4 AM
that is prime time for London session
stops Beyond The Lick rate structure
which is the lowest point or the
furthest point into this liquidity rate
and a fixed two to one target like this
strategy cannot get any simpler and this
is what I'm hunting for on The Daily all
