00:00:31,350 --> 00:00:41,940 ICT: Okay, folks, welcome back. This is the fourth teaching of eight of the November 2016 content for the ICT mentorship. Ken, we're gonna talk about some
00:00:41,940 --> 00:00:53,910 anticipatory skill sets. And one of the skill sets that I teach is using the monthly chart. But this teaching is going to be specifically dealing with using
00:00:53,970 --> 00:01:10,440 institution orderflow. To help you find new setups. When we look at the monthly chart first thing to remember is remind yourself that the monthly chart is only
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:23,340 going to move with a great deal of money behind these price swings, retails not going to have it, the idea of seeing the ranges on a monthly chart, that's going
00:01:23,340 --> 00:01:35,670 to be a result of enormous amounts of buying or selling interest by the smart money. Again, retail can't move price. So if we can see where they're most
00:01:35,670 --> 00:01:45,450 likely going to place orders to buy or sell. And we can see it on the monthly chart, we stand to make a great deal of pips. And we don't have to trade a whole
00:01:45,450 --> 00:01:59,850 lot to do it. But I want you to think about the opens the highs, the close and the low of every single candle on a monthly chart over the last three months.
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:09,360 That repaired that you that you have on your platform. This is a good study not to trade every single pair but I want you to go back over every pair that you
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:19,470 think is of interest to you and have the open high low and close delineated on a monthly chart over the last three months. So that will look like this. We're in
10 00:02:19,470 --> 00:02:34,890 November now Sears October, September, August, and having those reference points on your chart. And having those levels transposed into your lower timeframes,
11 00:02:34,920 --> 00:02:44,160 they'll bring a great deal clarity. Now you may have a few overlapping levels like this chart we have a couple of different opens and closes or will close in
12 00:02:44,250 --> 00:03:02,490 proximity. That's okay. But I want you to find the most recent down candle that would be this one here you go. And then prior to this down candle, what up
13 00:03:02,490 --> 00:03:17,610 candle exists above it. So in other words, if this is the down candle, you got to go above its high. So it's high is going to show up. Okay, the highest 3144
14 00:03:17,610 --> 00:03:30,960 So we had to have an up candle or a closed candle that has at least a low that's higher than 3144 Obviously,
15 00:03:31,050 --> 00:03:31,680 it's right here
16 00:03:37,980 --> 00:03:51,210 just a quick we've delineated a range on the monthly chart now by itself you've done a great deal already. But I know you don't believe it, you have to see it
17 00:03:51,210 --> 00:04:00,000 that need to have faith in it. So what we defined is the range in which we're going to trade in if I take these two reference points and I'm dropping down
18 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:00,990 into a weekly chart
19 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:18,780 Okay, by having a weekly chart, we can have a lot more information refined and that's Delenn delineate this month here with the vertical line on the month
20 00:04:18,780 --> 00:04:34,050 prior to it so now we have a down candle to the right of this vertical red line so we're looking at June This is June having a down close so we go into a daily
21 00:04:34,050 --> 00:04:47,370 chart onto our weekly chart okay. We have priced on a long term consolidation, many weeks gone by here and these two down candles here price trades through it
22 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:58,320 on this candle here. So now we have activated to to down candles as a bullish order block. When we have upside movement here. It violates the two down
23 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:14,100 candles. So now we can see See price return back down into it that would be a bullish scenario and it's also that the monthly candle at 130 7130 at all is
24 00:05:14,100 --> 00:05:32,130 rounded to 130 at close enough for government work price drops down into that couple different times and you see prices expanded now the upside is still that
25 00:05:32,130 --> 00:05:45,540 monthly bearish order block it's also to beginning of the last three candles that were up it's the same as up candles low you can see price and you can
26 00:05:45,540 --> 00:05:55,530 probably already visualize it reaching for this probably going into next week or the week after we'll probably see see more consider continuation on the upside
27 00:05:58,890 --> 00:06:00,570 we go into a daily chart
28 00:06:14,639 --> 00:06:23,009 okay, you can see the vertical lines delineate each month see
29 00:06:29,639 --> 00:06:48,479 price dipping down into that monthly open that we round it up to 130 at price response aggressively off of that and then we have the beginning of this decline
30 00:06:48,479 --> 00:07:05,519 here in October. And this is the reason why it sounds like kind sight if you're watching this without having the benefit of being a part of the live sessions
31 00:07:05,519 --> 00:07:15,239 and watching the recordings over the last last week, but we looked at 132 ad as a downside objective. And the reason why that was objective was based on these
32 00:07:15,239 --> 00:07:23,789 two down candles here and the fact that we are looking for higher prices relative to what's been shown on the monthly
33 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:42,060 Okay, so we see price retreating back into this down candle multiple times right here on this one and then ultimately retreating down into the higher level 3280
34 00:07:42,060 --> 00:08:05,700 Level right here you can see price expand the only upside so we're looking for 138 big figure and potentially higher than that. Take away is this if you look
35 00:08:05,700 --> 00:08:18,360 at your monthly charts okay, and you define where you're at presently in the range. All you have to do is find the most recent down candle and the most
36 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:28,860 recent up candle and there's your range. If you get the market trade above a down candle, you wait for a return back to that down candle to trade up into the
37 00:08:28,860 --> 00:08:40,200 last up candle. If you have a market trade up into a up candle you find the last down candle or most recent down candle which will be over here, there'll be
38 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:54,510 arrange for the downside. So we have still have upside still to go for dollar CAD on a monthly basis. Let's look at this same example of study on a US
39 00:08:54,540 --> 00:08:55,680 Japanese yen pair
40 00:09:07,290 --> 00:09:12,180 Okay, we have the most recent down candle here
41 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:34,830 and prior to this down candle, you have to have a candle it's higher than the candles high which is 104 35 so above here to the left worst of candle it's here
42 00:09:39,660 --> 00:09:53,070 it's your range. So between 106 28 and one of the 326 so basically 300 pips the idea as soon as this candle trades above the down candles high, this down candle
43 00:09:53,070 --> 00:10:00,990 becomes a bullish order block. So it can be a buyer at one of the 326 or less. We drop into a weekly chart
44 00:10:06,029 --> 00:10:31,919 is price trading below one to 326 and again here on the US election trend down into the bullish order block here we go into daily chart can see the body of
45 00:10:31,919 --> 00:10:50,039 this down candle it's larger than this one here. So this is the beginning in the bullish order block chair and mean threshold of this down candle would be about
46 00:10:50,039 --> 00:11:03,059 right here and it's not even challenged at all here even on the election a knee jerk reaction so price dips down into it here this will be a buy it starts to
47 00:11:03,059 --> 00:11:16,919 rally away then the next candle opens on the election trades down into previous bullish order block this will be another buy and rallying away we have old highs
48 00:11:16,919 --> 00:11:30,029 back here and we have equal highs back here on the monthly chart this is the objective we will be reaching up to and we've already seen that happen with 300
49 00:11:30,029 --> 00:11:40,409 pips plus to use Kiwi dollar monthly
50 00:11:47,130 --> 00:12:09,540 okay so we have last down candle here and the most recent up candle here okay and we've moved away from the last up candle exercise in this as a bearish order
51 00:12:09,540 --> 00:12:22,860 block we go down to a weekly okay see price trading up into bearish order block it does trade through the body this candle looks rather sloppy right now the
52 00:12:22,860 --> 00:12:39,000 downside objective is 6983 so 695 that buys these candles here close comes in at 7005 So that would probably be where I would be looking to cover about 120 pips
53 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:49,770 or so still potential downside objective personally alongside me I think it's going to come down here to 67 ad
54 00:12:56,700 --> 00:13:15,120 in our daily timeframe see price has in fact already moved a good distance now this is the bearish order block up in here. So anything above that price it had
55 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:33,060 reached up into we can refine that into a lower level timeframe. Bearish order block see a trading and here minimum expectation is to trade down to here. The
56 00:13:33,060 --> 00:13:34,350 next one would be down here
57 00:13:39,630 --> 00:13:54,420 do you want to reach for that and then below these lows. Okay, so we're using the monthly chart to give us our bullish and bearish order blocks and define our
58 00:13:54,420 --> 00:14:04,050 range. And then we look for lower timeframes to get closer to the market and refine our risk. Use the higher timeframe monthly chart, find the most recent up
59 00:14:04,050 --> 00:14:16,680 candle and most recent down candle. There's your range define that range in terms of where the most recent order flow has sent price was it violating a down
60 00:14:16,680 --> 00:14:32,190 close or down candle which gives permission to become a bullish order block or has price broken an up candle by violating its low which then activates that as
61 00:14:32,190 --> 00:14:41,790 a bearish order block. You just simply look for the the contrarian order block on the monthly chart. And you take those levels and you find them down into a
62 00:14:41,790 --> 00:14:51,540 weekly into a daily in down to an hourly chart and you can see there's a plethora of opportunities to study with all these different pairs. And it gives
63 00:14:51,540 --> 00:15:00,720 you a context to actually look into the marketplace with a specific mindset. Not just waiting for a neon sign to jump off at you and saying okay, What I want to
64 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:10,140 ask you to do today you'll know what levels of trade off of relative to the monthly chart and it's basically a top down approach didn't lead you right into
65 00:15:10,230 --> 00:15:12,510 trade setups that you otherwise wouldn't know they were there
