OK, here is my last post and I will be unfollowing ICT from here on out...He did say get lost so I will just do that...

It's not the fact that he is late to produce the series, but the fact that he counted down the days until their release and hyped it up as much as he could even knowing for a FACT he would not produce them on Christmas day. It's his way of thinking, that has me all bent out of shape and I understand most wont understand, since they have just started following.

Its like this each year, same old bullshit. He hypes up the series then poof he disappears. Everyone has excuses for why he did or didn't release the series and it obvious you are falling into his trap. The true fact is he knew he didn't have the series ready and that he still counted down the days for it's release in advance, for what? To get our hypes up and to trap us into his desire. He knew about it and did it for you...why?

Now lets put this into an example, I do a lot of free work around town such as computer work, house demolition, roof work, brick work, etc...I do my fair share of helping out the people that need help. Now what do you think would happen if I told someone I would be out to their house at this date and time to do this work and then never show up, a couple days later when they call to ask why I tell them O it's the holidays now shut up and just relax I will be there when I get there.

Now the people without common sense would say well it is the holidays just relax and be patient. Where the people with common sense would say yea it's the holidays but why would you say you would be there if you knew it was the holidays and had no desire to be there in the first place. By me saying I would be there changes their plans for the whole day or maybe week. They have to schedule around me, but do you think as a good human I would ever do that to someone...NO...so this just shows what type of person ICT really is. Is it someone you should really have this much faith in??? I don't know it's up to you to decide and depends on the type of person you truly are.

This type of attitude shows in his family, look at his son which started multiple threads on babypips and never went anywhere with them. It show how spoiled they have become and what type of attitude they carry, I'm sorry but I finally realized that if this is what happens when money hits the bank I truly don't want anything to do with it.

I want to thank Golden Gun and ICT which made me realize this and make my decision for me to quit this venture. I thank you again and appreciate that I do not want to be the person you guys have become. Thanks much appreciated, I hope you enjoy it because I realize how few of friends you guys truly have. I don't have that many but also realize I don't want to lose the once I currently have. It seems like the same trait each pro trader has once they become successful, each losing friends at the same rate and can only make new by posting on the internet.

Enjoy life and what comes from it, I have officially logged out of this account and others and WILL NOT BE RETURNING, so fill free so say the same old bullshit, I DO NOT CARE AND WILL NOT SEE IT...Peace I'm Out!!!

What exactly are you expecting out of this new series?

I like ICT material, but each "series" is basically a repetition of things he's already said. Very few unique materials come out of every video. It's mostly just reiteration of what's already been said or posted.

Looking at the descriptions, I kind of expect the same. Not that I don't like watching/listening and learning how he sees things, but I don't expect him to deliver some holy grail either.

Of course, repetition is the key to success / mastery, so .. :)

good luck in what ever you do ,nothing ive seen from ict is new and its all hindsight what he has done in the latest hype is just a sick joke sad really i for one dont need his rehashed stuff ,good job its free i cant believe for one minute he has ever been successful so inconsistent in everything ,you make some very good points his ego is floored .
at least your an honest man he cannot even keep his word and by the sounds of whats come out lately about him and his funny ways and telling you to get lost .
forget him his words are worthless ,let him run away again and stew in his ego .
its like the emperors new clothes nothing to see

hello all, been a lurker for a few weeks, some good stuff on here so decided to join in. Although this first post is just a bit fun while I test how to post images. ;) hope no one gets offended.

HI Maxwell, welcome to the forum. :)

I have a theory on why ICT is taking his time. He has a time line on when he is going to stop trading and he keeps adjusting that line. He does not want to release all his material before that. Every couple months he gives us a piece more. Now he has adjusted his time line and he has to do the same with the content of the release.

Interesting theory.

Though, I think the answer is likely holiday and family related.

In that case, I'll lock out your account.

I donno man.. after the last time you had an outburst and ICT made a video specifically to address it, I thought you'd have grown a bit. At this point, for your own health, I don't think you should be posting here anymore. (Or on any online forum about trading for that matter.)

Please move on and do something positive with your life. I'm not saying that to put you down, I'm quite sincere when I say this is for your own health.. With a personality like your's, there are far more positive things you could be doing with your life. Don't feel bad about it, trading just isn't for everyone.

Best of luck to you in the future.

Doesn't he do live trading? Have you ever tested what he's suggested? Do you see that he's not even really offering a trading system?

Chris Lori work on dealing ranges in 2005... You frequently see him refer to "waiting" untill price reaches into the bodies of a consolifation to take a trade... Almost always an OB right there. Just what ive noticed...
 
I truly have difficulty understanding this. If someone posted that these methods work but that they just cannot combat the psychology of trading, that would make sense to me. The stuff ICT has given since leaving BP, like the OB's and clarifying the MM patterns and tying them together with stop location and mitigation blocks, etc, you can see this stuff works.

It takes practice certainly, but when you tie it together with time/price, power of three and good money and risk management. Forex Tester 2 costs $200, which most people can get with some saving or selling a couple of things etc. This stuff really does work, and I have binders of books with printouts from multiple ICT video series. All this drama over a delayed release instead of discussing charts and what to expect in January. There is so much focus and energy on negative stuff that has no power to help us, while there is a ton of stuff that can.

There are some Mentor / Protoge threads (even Mr Pips Harmonic thread on FF ) that the students all post charts and discuss this trade or that trade, and its all about learning not kvetching. ICT methods are infinitely better than that in my opinion.

dont bother with them ,like everyones got an arse hole, same as an opinion
they are reacting to emotional side for ict .
ive been trading cz zones supply demand and marketmaker swing for years along with orderflow stops and limits orders ,so nothing new for me i dont use fibs i use trendlines and pivots so no hocus pocus ive seen ict show hindsight trades and screen shots demo or live i dont know .
and yes i have unfollowed ict for me he cant keep his word and runs away .
i will carry on trading here and use what works for me and set up a thread .
good luck trading next year guys
and just to add i thank ict for the stuff i have seen and the guys like joepipin/hopiplaka/jupiter peak /gdayfx/ggun/slt who have good threads here and we all use a bit of what works for us in trading to win

I must admit am enjoying watching this drama since I've nothing else to do whilst the market is closed :D
yes will become very funny im sure i do feel sorry for all the people who follow on twitter all that hype and takes the rug away at the last minute .
in the chat room here last week some very good posts and he did what everyone knew he would do and said in the chat ,nobody is perfect i suppose
 
If we take sport as an example, what do we do to better ourselves? we train.
What do we train? our brain and our body
If you are a currency trader, you use your brain more so... so much that we need to take time out, exercise and relax, so our brain can re set. There is a cycle in any form of work be it physical or not, cycles in every part of the day as we get out of bed right up to when we go back to bed into consolidation. If you could grab that moment in the market place, where it wakes up, would you trade it? i know i do, Asia wakes up and goes to sleep, London and NY.
Time windows offer opportunity from when they awake and close. Within these time windows are smaller fractals of opportunity repeating themselves. just like the bigger ones, cycle up and cycle down. It does not matter how you measure the market movements or even label the market place, if you find something that repeats itself, and you notice it, wait until that cycle comes about again, then your odds for a win will increase. ICT once said, no patience is the biggest failure, ain't that true. I have had to learn how to adopt patience into trading while learning just how to trade, for that matter. The psychological aspect of this career is the biggest tool you need to learn how to use, your brain! Know yourself better than you know the market, because the market will see you first!
