The Inner Circle Trader

Introduction

January 9, 2020 update - the mentorship is now closed to new students and his twitter account is closed.  He occasionally posts updates on his youtube community channel.

The Inner Circle Trader is a trader with many years of experience who teaches "Price Action" style of trading.  He also provides a years mentorship program for those who want to study how price action works.  He does NOT teach people how to trade, but I hear rumours that some people have applied his training to the markets where they have lost or won money as everyone does in the market over time.

Aside from his private mentorship, he has posted a number of public videos where he discusses his studies on youtube.

A Note to ICT

ICT, if there is any content on this site you want removed for whatever reason, just drop me a line and tell me what you want gone and I shall do so.

Warning

Regarding the Transcriptions

Most of the videos have transcription created using otter.ai.  While it is good, it is not perfect.  It's useful for searching, but not so useful if you are reading it only.  You are best off listening to the original audio, so you can know what was correctly said, rather than what otter.ai thinks the speaker said.

Welcome

I hope you find this collection of information useful.

Lost and Found - Historical Lessons

ICT has proven to be prolific producer of educational videos over the years.  From his early days over at babypips, to his own site, his private mentorship, youtube, and who knows where else, quite a few videos were made.

Sadly, a lot of these videos have disappeared from the public internet, or are now locked into people's private collections if they were smart enough to archive them.  This next section are some of lessons I was able to find after a fair bit of digging.  In some cases I've only found references to the name but not the actual videos themselves.  Maybe they'll turn up later.

For the diligent student of ICT's works, these videos are some of the earliest teachings I've found and are mostly superceeded by the 2016 mentorship and later lessons.  Still, they are interesting to see how ICT's teaching ideas developed over the years.

Podcasts

@DOW768Jones was able to retrieve an old podcast where ICT was interviewed.

Don't ask me what it took to find it LOL.

This originally aired as a part of a podcast called "Crypto: secrets of the trade" hosted by Benjamin Pirus back in Sep 2019.

This was the original title and description:

Episode XVII: ICT (The Inner Circle Trader) - Precision Trading To Beat Institutions--

9/20/19 Interview with ICT (@I_AM_ICT on Twitter). 

Inner Circle Trader (ICT) trades traditional markets, such as stocks and forex. He states an amazing strike rate of roughly 90% on his trades. His methods, system and style are very common in the cryptocurrency community. Many traders in the crypto space have used ICT's methods to develop their own trading strategies.

In this episode, some of the topics covered include:
-ICT's background and story, which includes over 25 years of trading experience.
-How he developed his unique trading style and methods.
-How markets are manipulated and how ICT uses that to his advantage and much more.

Catch up with ICT on YouTube, as well as on Twitter.

@InnerCircleTrader Let me know if you want it down big boss.

Thanks to @DOW768Jones for bringing this to my attention.

Market Maker Series (2014)

I believe these videos were pulled once the mentorship was created, but it looks like a lot of these concepts are covered in the current Market Maker Primer Course and in his new Youtube Series.  I'm keeping the list for reference purposes as I've been told that this series holds a lot of useful information.  The original names were found in a PDF.

Updated: Most of the original videos found: https://web.archive.org/web/20161221175638/http://www.theinnercircletrader.com:80/tutorials.htm
