Just started learning the ICT trading program

Check ICT in the search box, there are a lot of old messages tackling your subject.

I will only give you the basic message I always post: 2-5 years of learning, 5% chances of achieving your goal. Take it very seriously otherwise, you won't have any chance.
 
Save about 2 1/2 years and a load of waffle and bleeding,
Part1 of a 5 video course compressing into no waffle ICT enjoy
 
Aynone saying ICT is waffle is probably either a scammer or someone who does not know how to trade. Be careful.
 
I just started my journey with ICT. I wish I was able to personally attend his mentorship. Because I have so much BS from many others, I'm start ICT Forex Scout Sniper Basics hoping to clear up some of the garbage I learned in the past.
 
Those of us who have been for years in the industry know that even a trained monkey can make money in markets because it is just about having an edge, not following a specific system. Chart patterns, support and resistance, fibonacci, forex, binary options, futures, option premiums, indicators, ICT of course, S&D, flipping a coin every day, grid trading, japanese candlesticks, quarters theory, turtle theory, breakouts, volume...

You can use any of these and make money every single day as long as you spend time enough studying and defining a strategy. I only trade ICT because I do not need anything else. But I am in constant contact with folks that trade different systems and they win consistently.

Saying a system does not work, unless the system is absurd such as quantum trading, vortex maths or astrology trading, that is absurd nonsense and based in false hypothesis and scams (astrology and vortex maths are scams and quantum physics is not directly applicable to trading), means that you do not understand what trading means nor mathematics.

Apart from that, it's just that ICT is one of the best proven and tested systems and that all information is publicly available online for free. And the setups are extremely simple and so frequent that you can rely in a KISS strategy and get an entry or two per day. I have been only trading EURUSD during London and Nasdaq during New York during the last months. One single asset per trading session and I do not need to watch anything else.

Getting a 1:1 setup everyday is ridiculously simple and that would outpeform 95% of the professional traders out there. Only that. Not to say if you get an expansion day in NQ that is really a crazy payout.


Now, there is reason why trading pays so much: it is terribly difficult to learn, yet extremely simple to apply.

One of the mistakes is trying to understand all ICT. You only need one setup, not all of the ICT theory, tools and ideas. The most popular step-by-step practical ICT course is 2022 Mentorship because it is, actually three setups in one. (ICT 2022 mentorship playlist on youtube) https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVgHx4Z63paYiFGQ56PjTF1PGePL3r69s

Once you understand premium and support, basic market structure, and the basic ICT terminology, you can study it on youtube. You do not need anything else.

I repeat, you only need to know the killzones, when they happen and a simple setup. Nothing else.

There is, in the first video of the 2023 (not 2022) mentorship, a list of playlist to study by Michael, also, if you wanna check.
 
Don't forget to backtest your strategies. This will help you understand how they might perform under real-world conditions
