Btw, how do I set it to embed like Jack edited the first one to do?
 
I don't know exactly when ICT is starting, but he's planning to do a Live Stream (no audio) during LO today. I would imagine by around 1-2 am EST.

There's some big releases for the GBP today, hope there's a focus on Cable in his live stream.
 
Just Cable for this series.

Though today's Livestream might be dependent on how well he slept. Though he mentioned there wouldn't be any audio anyway. So it wouldn't surprise me if the stream doesn't go up until after the news release.

Bet he went short ~6820
 
If I'm good enough at copying ICT's Cable style of trading, I don't think he'd have gotten in at 20. 22 is where the first set of Lows are at, but the important issue is a HTF level sitting at 1.6844 (by my Feed; 1.6840 to 1.6845, depending on how you want to run it). And the currently dominant H1 Order Block starts at 1.6840.

Which is where I had my entry. Was surprised it didn't key on the first set of news, but was prepared for a run back up during New York as a Reversal Profile. I wasn't quite expecting it to move that much on the Inflation Report. But, well, that worked out all enough, haha. (My Limit was a 1.6840 flat. Main feed had the high at 1.64839. Go go quality analysis)
 
In other news, my very logical take profit level didn't work out so great. Minus this is the largest single move in several months on Cable, lol.
 
Dual screen technical workup for the Cable short:
shows Key level 6840 from daily chart
shows reflection entry pattern on intraday chart

140 potential pips on the table, depending how precise your entry was...

Only problem with the Reflection pattern is that the pair was over 1.6840 only for a few seconds, lol. So, while it's nice it shows as a Reflection, you're really not going to "find" it that way, hehe.

anticipation + limit order

seconds are enough :)
 
(removing the "&feature=youtu.be" part of the URL makes it embed properly on the forum.. not a big deal or anything :) )

Ah, okay. I found the forum didn't like the embed code, so I wasn't quite sure. I actually hadn't seen anything like that ever mentioned before, but thanks Jack.
 
I've got part of it. My browser crashed mid-way through, however.
