    Straight Line Trader

    Lol, what the hell? Into what kind grotesque alternate universe have I fallen? Anyway. What I want to do is write up my notes in a clean and organized way. Not regurgitating anything. But that's secondary. But seriously, jonny, that's not even funny.

    Why do you offer daily setups only to registered users and why have people register at all? I like what you've done with that website and I've been thinking of doing something similar myself (namely turning ICT's videos into written form in PDF). But I don't understand why you require registration.

    Thread of shame

    I bring you the penultimate shame. Not willing to give up the measly weekly gains I removed a stop on an Euro short. Seeing as I was 10% underwater I forced myself to close it today. By my unwillingness to give up the profits of one week I gave up the profits of the whole of April's.

    I never saw it either, and had the same exact thought as you did.

    ICT Forexmas 2014 / Market Maker Series

    All I know if Michael said he was going to post a video in the next hours. Although I'm not sure if it's the session or something else.

    EURUSD

    I don't know if it's OK me posting this here, but I think I'd be great if you could give your opinion. I don't think we've seen the bottom of the pair, of course, but I see a good opportunity for a retracement-based setup. What I've marked is an H4 bearish order block that falls within OTE...

    Traders Thought for the Day

    This calls for something I thought up in the shower this morning: don't expect your results to be consistent if your actions are not consistent.

    The seek for liquidity. An eternal stop-loss hunt.

    One of the most powerful aspects of the way ICT teaches price action is that by understanding the why you have a much deeper connection to it and can, for example, adapt to the unexpected. Otherwise you're blindly following a set of rules. If you don't understand the basis for those rules you...

    The seek for liquidity. An eternal stop-loss hunt.

    How so? As I said, it's just a theory. I have absolutely no proof as to what I explained. It's just the way I like to imagine it.

    The seek for liquidity. An eternal stop-loss hunt.

    Big institutions (what ICT calls "smart money") certainly make a conscious effort in moving price towards liquidity pools. But I think at lower timeframes, the phenomenon is more "natural". Commercial operations around the world that require an exchange in currency will naturally steer towards...

    Share your trade. (Pic or Video)

    Got 42 pips out of the London open this morning. Not ideal at all because I got impatient and got in early. Gotta hone that discipline. Working on consistent 1:1 R/R for now.
