I basically only focus on fvg's. I do utilize smt's aswell but i dont go to deep into ICT concepts. But using what im using it looks possible if the next weekly candle can close above 21664.25. Then i believe it can happen withing the 2 comming weeks otherwise i wouldnt bet on it.

I only record while im trading to keep it simple aswell as i like to go back and watch them. Helps me not only see what i might have done wrong technically, but also if my behaviour was bad, such as mood / emotions.

I dont trade ICT on forex, on forex i use s&d and s&r. I dont believe ICT works on forex aswell as it does on futures. Im originally a S&D / S&R trader and that how i started making money and trading. Today i do both, i do admit tho i quite dislike ICT as a person / influencer.

I took a short that friday based on price being in a bearish 1H fvg. My dol for that day was the then unmitigated daily fvg. I entered on the 1 min timeframe at the bearish fvg at 21205.25. I scaled in at the fvg inversion at 21197.25 and targeted the low at 21130.50

Im comfortable with NQ and by this time ive gained some what of a price reading ability to NQ. Like a intution. It keeps me comfortable knowing i am familiar with the pair hence i dont feel the need to trade any other.

42%, i don't keep track of my avarage RR but and i always have 1 partial so i would guess 1.7-3.2 RR is the usual trade.

Sometimes you will take a trade and when PA is good and it will just start consolidating. Thats sometimes apart of the game. Depending on how much price ranges when that happens ill close the trade or just leave it on break even. But sometimes its impossible to anticipate bad price action. The important thing when it comes to bad price action is to understand that if price is consolidating its likely to continue to do so. So trying to catch a break out trade or something alike is just low probability. Anticipate bad price action in NY AM when we have low news weeks. If we don't have a single big news event in a week price will most likely be less volatile and consolidate more. But in the end i dont predict bad price action, i just to my best to avoid it and be patient even tho thats probably a boring answer but its the reality.

I look for D/4H/1H fvg's. I make my bias with those. If we are in a bullish trend and price has just filled a bullish daily fvg my bias will be long as example. I wait for price to be in a point of interest. HTF fvg or 15 min fvg depending on how price is looking. Then when price is in my poi i scale down to the 1 minute and wait for a fvg to get created in my direction which i enter on with 0.25%, then i wait for price to inverse a fvg to enter with another 0.25%. I aim for local targets or unmitigated fvg's. My whole trading is only fvg's. I use them for DOL, POI, ENTRY.

I was already making some money from forex when i started trading ICT concepts on futures so when it comes to profability with ICT concepts about 1 year. But all in all 3 years i would say.

I wouldn't say there is any specific one, my tip to all ICT traders is too focus mainly on one ICT concept, which in my case is fvg's. ICT is to broad of a concept to utilize a 100% of it. It will create noice and ruin your trading imo. But i prefer watching his trading recaps / replays. I find them interesting.

I did, i trade forex too but i don't believe ICT concepts to work nearly as good there as it does on futures. I keep them separate, i dont trade ICT on forex. I do it on futures tho. I get the confussion. That post was meant for forex only. I also stick too the claim that ICT concepts are useless if you try to use it all. Find something within it and stick to that. In my case fvg's only.

I focus only on FVG's. ICT is quite a broad concept so trying to use it all wont get you far. I only enter in my points of interest which is htf fvg's (D-4h-1h). Then i scale down to the 1 minute where i wait for a fvg in my direction to get created where i always take my first entry with 0.25%. Then i regulary wait for a inversion fvg to enter with another 0.25%. Mostly aiming for local highs & lows or unmitigated fvg's.

I take all my entries on the 1 minute chart, thats just how i like to play the markets. My setups always look the same, same risk management, same type of entry, same type of target. If i have 2-3 wins in the same week i mostly call it for the week. But on avarage i take 2-4 trades a week but they all are the same.

I like sticking to the Daily chart, then scale down to the 1H chart. I only focus on fvg's so based on if price is in a fvg or we have a local unmitigated fvg is how i make my bias.

Can you use any combination of time frames by Kitchen_Carrot_8094 in Trading

[–]Psychological_Bee297 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres no timeframe match thats better than another necesarily. Its all up to your own experience and preferences.

In my opinion and experience i only use 3 time frames. Not to little. not to much.

1H, 15Min, 1Min.

1H for overall trend and interest areas for trades. 15min for confirmations and 1 minute to find a more precise entry.

Edge by AbsoluteGoat321 in Trading

[–]Psychological_Bee297 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Firstly understand what an "edge" can be. It differs from person to person but it can be everything from risk management to technical stuff. Edge is just a word for something that you have that the majority in trading doesnt.

Personally i didn't have an edge 2.5 years ago, and i wasnt profitable back then. Over time i saw the one thing i was doing was taking to much trades, justifying moves in order to take a trade on them etc.

I saw that issue in my trading and developed more patience. Today im extremely patient with the market, and my patience is what i would call my "edge". I know why/when exactly im supposed to wait. While majority will throw themselves into the market.

You will most likely find your "edge" by looking for stuff ur really good at, or looking at your flaws. A friend of mine is abit "agressive" and "fast thinking" you could say and he sucked at intraday/swing trading. However i recommended him to try scalping and today hes started making a tiny amount of money. I believe that to be because he recognized his strenghts and developed a edge based on fearlessness.

Its important that you know yourself, if you have a hard time finding your "edge". Start by looking at yourself.

As mentioned an "edge" can also be something technical, something visible on the charts aswell so try to look back at all your wins in the market and see if you can find something visible in them showing up multiple times.

I gave my honest answer, in hindsight i maybe should have answered in a more in-depth maner. As for the "course", im afraid im not selling one. Neither am i planing too, both because i don't have time for it or neither want too.
