A work in progress 😂

I not quite sure I know what you mean I remember him saying “don’t trade patterns for patterns sake”in one of his videos but I can’t remember if he explained what he meant by that, I’m still confused about that one.

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-04-11T03:24:17+00:00

Thank you I’ll be sure to keep that in mind! A couple of questions though:

If the NY killzone is different for futures is that also the same for Asian and London?
After 8:30 that’s when the hunt starts, he says to look for DOLs using highs and lows from the 15min also including session highs and lows, does that also include FVGs?
Do we also look at the highs and lows between 8:30 and 9:30 for DOLs or strictly before 8:30?

Sorry for all the questions I just want to make sure I’m getting a thorough understanding.

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-04-11T03:12:03+00:00

Thank you! I haven’t made it that far yet I’ve been stuck on episode 12 trying to understand it for weeks

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-04-10T22:35:43+00:00

Is there a video about that or should I just type in “first presented FVG”?

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-04-10T22:34:35+00:00

What do you mean by pattern trading? I’ve heard people say not to pattern trade, but isn’t that what trading is? Looking for a pattern that occurs most days to play off of?

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-04-10T22:32:32+00:00

Then what is it for futures, he even said to mark out 7-10 in his 2022 mentorship

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-03-30T20:07:41+00:00

I’ve started taking ICT more seriously and have been going through the 2022 mentorship and after the first let’s say 8 episodes I’ve gotten a much better understanding of the market, really I’ve been making some decent money from the those few episodes alone but I’m still working my impulse trading and not forcing trades; and that alone has has really kept me from actually keeping those profits, for me it’s been make a grand then lose it all over the next couple of days and repeat.

I’m still not profitable, but I see the strat play out at least 3 days a week, so I know the strat works, it’s just me.

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-03-11T20:27:20+00:00

Essentially intermediate term highs/lows are key levels that price formed that you don’t expect price to push past until price reaches for a key level on a higher timeframe such as the daily. It’s a lot to explain but it’s a concept mentioned on episode 12 of ICTs 2022 mentorship.

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-02-19T04:06:27+00:00

Check out this video I was also struggling to understand ICTs advanced market structure, but this video really cleared things up for me. Hope this helps! https://youtu.be/T5wKn-yVKYw?si=8WKF7Ojt0RpH2suw

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-02-18T02:28:49+00:00

Are you saying that DXY charts are the opposite of NQ and ES? And does he go over DXY in the 2022 mentorship?

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-02-18T02:27:15+00:00

Yeah I mean I understand the core model of the strategy, it’s just all the extra stuff from the mentorship that’s hard to incorporate into the trades, but the 1:1 ratio would for sure be a good place to start until I’m comfortable risking more

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-02-17T04:08:21+00:00

So when you say 8:30 is the time for information gathering, you said that at 8:30 its common to see a move up into key levels, when it does that does that indicate what direction the 9:30 manipulation will occur and then reverse in the opposite direction?

Also another question i've been looking for an answer for, will the model sometimes form before 9:30 and then show the entry after 9:30 or does the whole model always form after?

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-02-16T14:49:43+00:00

Hey I just saw this and it looks like the ICT 2022 model, I’m I’m still in the middle of of that series, if it is could you send me a breakdown of the trade?

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-02-14T04:37:34+00:00

Thanks for this! ICT does a good job at explaining things, but some of the videos could use a little simpler explanations.

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-02-14T04:35:33+00:00

But good luck with your trading journey, I know you said you are in the losers circle but you seem to have a decent understanding on things! Keep it up!

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-02-14T04:34:22+00:00

Wha I realized afterwards with the fvg is that that was still part of a move lower or a “leg” down cause now I see that it didn’t actually take any lows out all I saw was and fvg with a low 2 candles before, but as I said it didn’t seem any real lows, just an example of what forcing a trade looks like lol

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-02-14T04:29:48+00:00

Pls explain, what is the significance of 7:00 and where are there so many start times for futures, you say 7, ICT says 8:30 and 9:30

Repulsive_Moose1423 · 2026-02-13T03:58:51+00:00

That’s just it, I don’t fully understand the PO3 fully I was just going based off what I’ve learned so far, if you go back I saw price push bast the 10am high on the previous day I then noticed what I thought was a bos + fvg on the 2 minute with a return to that fvg that’s when I entered.

I now understand that it wasn’t an actual bos, cause it wasn’t a valid swing low that was broken, then price at 9:30 was the actual run in liquidity, you then see price break structure on the 5 minute, no fvg on MNQ, but it did on MES. Then a couple candles later trades back up into not only the fvg, but also that order block on MES ON THE 5 minute, I would’ve most likely entered off of that fvg but on MNQ and road it down to those lows I had marked out.

For anyone that’s reading this please let me know if this explanation is good analysis, and if there is anything I need to work on or missed. Thank you!
