It's somewhere between "days before NFP" and "first 5 trading days before NFP" that roughly sets the Monthly range.

The Options one he never uploaded, mostly as it was 4+ hours of squinting if you wanted to actually follow along.

As for the Monthly NFP setups, I don't have notes on it, I just did it while he was talking about it, and follow the idea. I'd love him to give a few minutes on the topic again.

Was ICT talking about that this week? Or were you going back through the videos and covering a specific topic again?
 
Question about SMT divergence.

Looking at the screenshot:
galUbOaj


We can see the divergence between the DXY and EU/GU.

EU failed to make a higher high, DXY failed to make a lower low, so they are in sync.
GU made a higher high, so it is the "stronger" pair by definition.

Question: If EU is the weaker pair, why is the GU dropping faster? I thought EU would drop more significantly. Or is GU playing catch up?

So the question remains, should the ideal strategy be to short the stronger pair instead of the weaker pair?

I would say yes as the stronger pair just cleared stops.

However, In reality strength and weakness cant be determined anymore than supply and demand, not until its too late that is.

As far as I understand it, divergence is an indication of accumulation/distribution although we can never really know which has been accumulated/distributed using divergence alone, only the subsequent move can prove us right or wrong.

As I see it this is the strength of your B2OB set up, the initial break one and two give a strong indication of what they were accumulating or distributing.

Thanks for the info Foreigner, really appreciate your view on this.

The B2OB is indeed a great indicator in determine the trend, but only used at a clear SR level.
You can find a number of B2OB setups but if it's not around a key SR line, you will be burned (I've noticed :D )

Thats a very good point, Ive also found Key S&R to be the linchpin whatever the technical setup.

Hi All, I'm a newbie to ICT and I'm trying to put together the best way to determine the weekly directional bias. Can anyone with experience with this help me out? I understand about the EMA's and also the importance of having a top down approach but I'm looking at the cable today 2 August 2015 and have no idea or am totally second guessing my use of the tools. Any assistance would be really appreciated!!

If you don't see any clear direction - then there is no clear direction. Don't expect someone else to tell you what to see. The more you practice the more obvious it will become, in any situation.

Thankfully Michael released his video and that was a lot of help. Yes...lots of practice for the future. Thanks for your reply.
