ICT YT - 2025-04-24 - 2025 Lecture Series - NQ Heavy Manipulation Review

Last modified by Drunk Monkey on 2025-05-01 11:20
1 00:00:34 --> 00:00:41 ICT: Folks, welcome back. It's gonna be a really, really short video. I mean
2 00:00:41 --> 00:00:46 that sincerely to length. So we're gonna be looking at a Wednesday review for
3 00:00:46 --> 00:00:47 April, 2325
4 00:00:52 --> 00:00:59 right here's the daily chart for NASDAQ, and we're gonna zoom in here and take a
5 00:00:59 --> 00:01:07 look at that rate there that premium wick, constant encroachment and that
6 00:01:07 --> 00:01:14 volume imbalance. So let's zoom in here. All right. So right away, I want you to
7 00:01:14 --> 00:01:21 take a look at that wick right here. Why am I even referring to this one like,
8 00:01:21 --> 00:01:26 Why would my eye jump to that? Why would your eye jump to that? Well, after the
9 00:01:26 --> 00:01:33 market starts to dive down here, where's the swing low here, this candle, this
10 00:01:33 --> 00:01:41 candle, and this candle, this has a long wick or tail in this case. And what I
11 00:01:41 --> 00:01:48 like to do is, I like to measure from the open down to the low, 50% of that is
12 00:01:48 --> 00:01:55 consequence, because I teach you that a wick, whether it's below or above, a
13 00:01:55 --> 00:02:03 candlestick, is to be treated as a gap. Draw that out in time. You can see
14 00:02:03 --> 00:02:07 during Wednesday's trading, we traded up here and hit that one just a little bit
15 00:02:07 --> 00:02:13 above it and came back off of it. The other point of interest is this volume
16 00:02:13 --> 00:02:21 imbalance here. So between this candle sticks open, this candle sticks open,
17 00:02:22 --> 00:02:26 there's no bodies laid down. There's wicks that are overlapping, but that's
18 00:02:26 --> 00:02:31 my volume imbalance. And then we opened here and traded up through it and up
19 00:02:31 --> 00:02:38 into the premium wick of this candlestick here. What makes this market
20 00:02:38 --> 00:02:44 environment presently difficult? Well, the fact that we're having a whole lot
21 00:02:44 --> 00:02:56 of like separation between the settlement prices this right here. So
22 00:02:56 --> 00:03:00 you have to focus where all the volume imbalances are, and that's where you
23 00:03:00 --> 00:03:08 start. And when price was down here, you have to look up above, from this low up
24 00:03:08 --> 00:03:13 to that high, look through all that. So you had this volume of balance. So when
25 00:03:13 --> 00:03:16 we started the week, looking back through all this, you can see the volume
26 00:03:16 --> 00:03:23 of balance there, fair value gap, width of volume and balance. So technically,
27 00:03:23 --> 00:03:31 it's this open to this high but that's a PD array for another time, and then you
28 00:03:31 --> 00:03:35 have this volume of balance there. And then Christ did, in fact, trade up into
29 00:03:35 --> 00:03:42 this area once before, but PD arrays are meant to be used more than once. Okay,
30 00:03:42 --> 00:03:49 so that's, unfortunately, one of the things that makes what I teach a little
31 00:03:49 --> 00:03:54 bit more complex than the standard Support and Resistance idea, which, you
32 00:03:54 --> 00:03:58 know, neophytes like to say that's really what it is, or so fine to me,
33 00:03:58 --> 00:04:01 it's nowhere near any of that stuff. It's way beyond it, late, years ahead of
34 00:04:01 --> 00:04:09 it. But there's a rhyme and reason. There's a proper context to using them.
35 00:04:09 --> 00:04:15 And there is a time, there is a expiration on each PD array that I use,
36 00:04:15 --> 00:04:22 and it's the IP the data ranges, okay, 20, day 40, day six day look back. You
37 00:04:22 --> 00:04:26 can look back further than 40 days and still use those PD arrays, but it's
38 00:04:26 --> 00:04:29 going to require you a whole lot more experience and knowing where the market
39 00:04:29 --> 00:04:34 is likely to go. I'll just leave that theater. Okay, so let's go in with these
40 00:04:34 --> 00:04:39 two PD arrays in mind premium consequence of this candlestick right
41 00:04:39 --> 00:04:44 here on the daily chart for NASDAQ, June delivery contract 2025 and this volume
42 00:04:44 --> 00:04:48 of balance right here. Okay, those are the only two reference points on the
43 00:04:48 --> 00:04:53 daily chart that I'm going to have on the lower time frames. So if you're on
44 00:04:53 --> 00:04:58 my telegram channel, this morning, we opened up the session with, obviously a
45 00:04:58 --> 00:05:02 very large gap opening with. Just did not adhere from previous day's
46 00:05:02 --> 00:05:08 settlement. So that large gap there, generally, it's usually within the scope
47 00:05:08 --> 00:05:13 of reasonable for it to continue moving in the direction of the extreme opening
48 00:05:13 --> 00:05:19 gap, in this case, moving higher. But in the beginning of the session, I was not
49 00:05:19 --> 00:05:23 interested in going along with being long right away, I was insisting that
50 00:05:23 --> 00:05:28 the market would trade down to a discount, and then this would have been
51 00:05:28 --> 00:05:33 a ideal scenario to reach up into. And if it were to trade beyond that, then we
52 00:05:33 --> 00:05:39 had this candlesticks high. But we do have these relative equal highs here
53 00:05:39 --> 00:05:45 that are again I don't want to sell the idea that it's going to definitely go
54 00:05:45 --> 00:05:49 there, but as long as we keep pushing higher, that would be a reasonable area
55 00:05:49 --> 00:05:57 to watch this. I don't know if we'll get into that this week in order to trade
56 00:05:57 --> 00:06:01 back down into it. Who knows? I don't know the way the market's behaving. You
57 00:06:01 --> 00:06:08 know, tariffs are on, tariffs are off, Recipro tariffs. It's you can't keep up
58 00:06:08 --> 00:06:14 with it. It's madness. And I believe this is what I was referring to back in
59 00:06:14 --> 00:06:19 2016 when I did Twitter spaces and I talked about what you're actually seeing
60 00:06:19 --> 00:06:24 happen geopolitically and in the United States with our leadership, it's almost
61 00:06:24 --> 00:06:30 like I was giving you the headlines of the newspapers and articles years in
62 00:06:30 --> 00:06:36 advance. Believe me, I'm taken back by as well. So let's drop down lower time
63 00:06:36 --> 00:06:40 frames. Here's a five minute chart, and you can see how the market did, in fact,
64 00:06:40 --> 00:06:45 trade up eventually into and above that daily premium wick consequent
65 00:06:45 --> 00:06:50 encroachment level, and the market then gave up the ghost, went lower and traded
66 00:06:50 --> 00:06:57 back down into that daily volume of bounces in yellow, and then went into a
67 00:06:57 --> 00:07:01 range bound consolidation all of these wicks Here. Look at all this back and
68 00:07:01 --> 00:07:08 forth. See all that right there. This is what I was anticipating when I said,
69 00:07:08 --> 00:07:13 Turn your charts off. If you're a member of my telegram channel, that's free.
70 00:07:14 --> 00:07:18 Okay, you can find the link on my YouTube channel. Go to the description
71 00:07:18 --> 00:07:24 of my YouTube channel. Scroll down, you'll see the link to my official X and
72 00:07:24 --> 00:07:27 you'll see the link to my website, and then you'll see the link to my official
73 00:07:27 --> 00:07:32 telegram channel that is absolutely free. I do not sell you a service. I do
74 00:07:32 --> 00:07:35 not deal with cryptocurrencies. They are garbage. They are trash. I would never
75 00:07:35 --> 00:07:39 take a payment from you with crypto. I would never send you a direct message.
76 00:07:39 --> 00:07:43 I'm never going to talk to you in a direct message on any medium, any social
77 00:07:43 --> 00:07:49 media at all. I'm not on Tiktok, I am not on Instagram, I am not on Discord, I
78 00:07:49 --> 00:07:56 am not on thread. So I'm not on Facebook. Okay, so whoever you are
79 00:07:56 --> 00:07:59 seeing in those mediums, they're pretending to be me, if they're ever
80 00:07:59 --> 00:08:05 asking for money, well, here's your sign. That's not me, but these back and
81 00:08:05 --> 00:08:12 forth wicks here that makes it obvious that there's manual intervention. Okay,
82 00:08:12 --> 00:08:17 when we have a very clean price run, we have inefficiencies. The inefficiencies
83 00:08:17 --> 00:08:23 are allowed to be remaining open partially, or if not entirely, that is a
84 00:08:23 --> 00:08:29 very clean market to trade in, and as soon as I started seeing signs of that
85 00:08:29 --> 00:08:33 this morning, that's why they said you turn your charts off. And trust me, now
86 00:08:33 --> 00:08:36 that doesn't mean that you can't trade it later on. It doesn't mean you can't
87 00:08:36 --> 00:08:42 eventually see a setup. It just means that I'm not going to be sitting in
88 00:08:42 --> 00:08:47 front of you knowing the influence I have over many of you, and I'm not going
89 00:08:47 --> 00:08:50 to influence you to do something that could potentially hurt yourself. Okay,
90 00:08:50 --> 00:08:54 so we're in the telegram channel where we're tape reading. We're not doing
91 00:08:54 --> 00:08:58 trade signals. We're not trying to get you in there to make money or risk real
92 00:08:58 --> 00:09:04 money. It's for you to borrow my 33 years of experience and then see what my
93 00:09:04 --> 00:09:08 PD arrays can do for you in the long run, doing those same types of things in
94 00:09:08 --> 00:09:12 your enhancement. So just know that while price was going back and forth
95 00:09:12 --> 00:09:17 like this, this is extremely difficult to trade in, unless you have such a
96 00:09:17 --> 00:09:24 large stop very, very small risk, and you've been positioned well in advance
97 00:09:24 --> 00:09:30 here, here or here, and your stop is way down below there, then, yeah, obviously
98 00:09:30 --> 00:09:34 you can endure that. Okay, but I was treating with the things that I teach,
99 00:09:34 --> 00:09:40 which is first percent of fair value gap, or, you know, false breaks. And I
100 00:09:40 --> 00:09:44 was not interested in being long, so I felt like it would be likely to pull
101 00:09:44 --> 00:09:52 back down into this little area right in here, which had this low and I annotated
102 00:09:52 --> 00:09:58 that in telegram. So that was really the first primary run I wanted to see. And
103 00:09:58 --> 00:10:05 then I. Moving in the same direction of the opening gap being bullish, this
104 00:10:05 --> 00:10:10 would have been another area I'd be reaching for but we're going to see what
105 00:10:10 --> 00:10:16 happened in in reality here. So here's a one minute chart, and here's the first
106 00:10:16 --> 00:10:21 percent of fair value gap right here. And you can see the market does, in
107 00:10:21 --> 00:10:28 fact, rally up, comes back down, lots of ugly price action in here, and I said
108 00:10:28 --> 00:10:32 that we would likely see a draw back down into the first percent of fair
109 00:10:32 --> 00:10:37 value gap. It was a probable draw, meaning it's going to pull back down
110 00:10:37 --> 00:10:38 into that.
111 00:10:39 --> 00:10:43 That was me setting the stage for something like this move here, dropping
112 00:10:43 --> 00:10:48 down into first percent spray bag gap, then up into a PD rate that I would have
113 00:10:48 --> 00:10:54 given you at a subsequent later time. But you know, as it were, we have all
114 00:10:54 --> 00:11:00 this back and forth price action. I mentioned that we pretty much can expect
115 00:11:00 --> 00:11:04 that they have ran out all the shorts, and the market started to break lower. I
116 00:11:04 --> 00:11:08 went short on this candlestick. I will show you the execution in a moment that
117 00:11:08 --> 00:11:12 I mentioned, this fair value gap. It trade up into it started to sell off.
118 00:11:12 --> 00:11:17 Got real close to first present the fair value gap, and then it does this return,
119 00:11:17 --> 00:11:26 back up into it. And then one more time, then false rally drops down into the
120 00:11:26 --> 00:11:31 first present fair value gap, then creates an imbalance. Here, trades to
121 00:11:31 --> 00:11:37 the daily premium, with consequence, creates a drop into the macro. And then
122 00:11:37 --> 00:11:41 we have one more time, a premium with consequent encroachment. That's right
123 00:11:41 --> 00:11:44 here. You can see the body's respecting that the wicks are allowed to do the
124 00:11:44 --> 00:11:48 damage. As you can see, they did a lot of damage in here on a five minute
125 00:11:48 --> 00:11:56 chart. And then during the 1050, to 1110, macro, we start to see it sell
126 00:11:56 --> 00:12:04 off, nice little, fair, shorter block with a city right there, which is
127 00:12:04 --> 00:12:08 institutional order flow entry, drill three PD arrays all in one. But I just
128 00:12:08 --> 00:12:12 said, play it back again. Write down your journal that is a model in and of
129 00:12:12 --> 00:12:16 itself. If you have a bias, market breaks lower trades into this
130 00:12:16 --> 00:12:21 inefficiency that comes in inversion for value gap, another premium, wick,
131 00:12:21 --> 00:12:28 consequent encroachment here inside the inversion fair value gap, and tanks down
132 00:12:28 --> 00:12:31 into pressure that free bag up, which we'll extend in a moment on the next
133 00:12:31 --> 00:12:36 slide. This will be extended over here, entry down into the daily volume
134 00:12:37 --> 00:12:40 imbalance, and then below the cell side that I mentioned this morning, in the
135 00:12:40 --> 00:12:46 telegram channel and into that fair value gap. So it does that right here at
136 00:12:46 --> 00:12:51 1130 which begins the launch macro. So I want you to take a look at this
137 00:12:51 --> 00:12:59 candlestick right in here. And there I am shorting four at 19,001 08, and
138 00:12:59 --> 00:13:02 there's a little symbol telling you exactly where at on that one minute
139 00:13:02 --> 00:13:06 candle. So it opened trade up a little bit and then started its way back down
140 00:13:06 --> 00:13:11 below this high. So that was my turtle soup. I was mentioning that it was
141 00:13:12 --> 00:13:18 technically a turtle soup environment, meaning that it's a false breakout. Five
142 00:13:18 --> 00:13:22 stops have been taken, and I'm looking for a drop back down into purchase, into
143 00:13:22 --> 00:13:27 everybody I got for partial one, which would have been two contracts. That's
144 00:13:27 --> 00:13:30 how I would have done it today. And then I would have taken one below here, and
145 00:13:30 --> 00:13:34 then I would have left the remaining to be taken below here. That's how what's
146 00:13:34 --> 00:13:39 going on, trade it, plan it. And now you'll see this is where I got stopped,
147 00:13:39 --> 00:13:44 out on this candlestick. And I had literally just dropped the stop just
148 00:13:44 --> 00:13:49 above this little high here, and you can see on that candlestick right there,
149 00:13:49 --> 00:13:55 that's where I got stopped out and matched the price up over here. Okay, so
150 00:13:56 --> 00:14:08 2200 or so, 2210 2220 um. At the cost that would be, in my case here, a very
151 00:14:08 --> 00:14:13 fortunate outcome, because it could have very easily ran up aggressively and put
152 00:14:13 --> 00:14:19 me in a losing engagement today, which I guess many of you were like, can you
153 00:14:19 --> 00:14:28 just show that and this, in my in my view, this is like a loss, because I
154 00:14:28 --> 00:14:36 knew, looking at it, that I'm kind of like betting against it. But yeah, in
155 00:14:36 --> 00:14:41 this case, I was fortunate with being experienced not to drop the stop down.
156 00:14:42 --> 00:14:46 But if I wouldn't have done that, this would have been a loss like it would
157 00:14:46 --> 00:14:51 have been a loss altogether. The Stop Loss opened up on the position three
158 00:14:51 --> 00:14:56 ticks above this high. Okay, so it was really, really thin in terms of the
159 00:14:56 --> 00:15:01 amount of movement. I wanted to allow it to go against me. Okay, and if it was
160 00:15:01 --> 00:15:04 going to drop, it was going to have to start doing like it did here. If it did
161 00:15:04 --> 00:15:07 all this back and forth and started running out, and I would have been
162 00:15:07 --> 00:15:12 waiting for this level here, but, you know, I was working with this morning
163 00:15:12 --> 00:15:18 session. And it is what it is sometimes when manual intervention is underway,
164 00:15:18 --> 00:15:23 and that's what all this stuff is in here, even I can't win against that.
165 00:15:23 --> 00:15:26 Okay? And there's no shame in that. There's no excuses about it. It's just
166 00:15:26 --> 00:15:30 that's the facts. My concepts work. They're strong on how to use them. I
167 00:15:30 --> 00:15:33 have enough experience to use them properly. You've seen it for a long
168 00:15:33 --> 00:15:42 time, but up against the hand, you know, at any time, they can do these types of
169 00:15:42 --> 00:15:47 things, and that's why we have to have proper risk management. Don't over
170 00:15:47 --> 00:15:51 leverage and stop losses have to be used. You cannot use a mental stop you
171 00:15:51 --> 00:15:55 cannot pretend that you'll I'm watching it real close. You can't do that in
172 00:15:55 --> 00:15:58 these environments right now, folks, I promise you, the people that are trading
173 00:15:58 --> 00:16:01 without stop losses are biting their nails. They're not sleeping well at
174 00:16:01 --> 00:16:04 night. Their digestive system is probably a wreck, and they're not
175 00:16:04 --> 00:16:10 consistently profitable. So that's gambling. That's really gambling. So I
176 00:16:10 --> 00:16:16 told everyone, once this occurred here, I said, Okay, turn your charts off,
177 00:16:16 --> 00:16:20 trust me. And then it went back and forth, and Hemington Hall dropped down
178 00:16:20 --> 00:16:25 into the first business favorite I got, then rallied up to that premium with
179 00:16:25 --> 00:16:30 consequence, and then started to maneuver back down. This type of thing
180 00:16:30 --> 00:16:38 is going to happen to you. You may get a trade on in a day like this, and suffer
181 00:16:38 --> 00:16:43 a loss, and then later on, see it do where you thought it was going to go to
182 00:16:43 --> 00:16:48 a specific level. And you get mad. You get tore up about it. You get emotional.
183 00:16:49 --> 00:16:56 Those guys did it to us guys again. That's, unfortunately, what this game
184 00:16:56 --> 00:17:01 sometimes entails, meaning you're going to do it wrong. No matter how good you
185 00:17:01 --> 00:17:06 are, you're good your concepts are, how good the mentor was. I taught to you all
186 00:17:06 --> 00:17:13 those things are well and good, but remember, it's still their casino, it's
187 00:17:13 --> 00:17:17 still their roles. It's still their advantage all the time. And they can
188 00:17:17 --> 00:17:21 come in here and move price because they own it. It's their commodity. They can
189 00:17:21 --> 00:17:25 make price wherever it wants to be at. In their eyes, it can go there right
190 00:17:25 --> 00:17:31 away. It matters, not where our stop loss or our position is net long or net
191 00:17:31 --> 00:17:37 short. So I want you to take a quick look again. Go back and look at what we
192 00:17:37 --> 00:17:41 have here for these PD arrays, because I'm going to be scrolling to the right
193 00:17:41 --> 00:17:46 in the future more, and I'm going to extend some of these levels here, so
194 00:17:46 --> 00:17:52 that way we know what we're looking at. Okay, so the first percent fair value
195 00:17:52 --> 00:17:55 gap here acts as an inversion. Fair value gap here, beautiful. This looks
196 00:17:55 --> 00:17:59 like it touches it as you zoom in on it, gets just real close to a tick or so
197 00:17:59 --> 00:18:02 away, and then rolls over, which is actually good, because you want to see
198 00:18:02 --> 00:18:07 them fail when it's weak. And if it can even touch the PD array and starts to
199 00:18:07 --> 00:18:11 sell off, then it's wonderful. Take the first fair value gap, and that would be
200 00:18:11 --> 00:18:15 right in here, which is an overlap of that daily volume imbalance here, and
201 00:18:15 --> 00:18:19 then trades down into the lower quadrant of that daily volume imbalance. And then
202 00:18:19 --> 00:18:23 we started banging around inside that and then trade it outside of it here,
203 00:18:27 --> 00:18:32 and later on in the afternoon, you can see that's that move outside and below
204 00:18:32 --> 00:18:36 the daily volume of balance, and it creates a sell side liquidity pool. The
205 00:18:36 --> 00:18:40 market rallies up, creates the runs off of the quadrants on the daily volume
206 00:18:40 --> 00:18:44 imbalance. It's that yellow shade dairy. That's the level I started with the
207 00:18:44 --> 00:18:48 daily chart. And it rallies back up the first percent of air value gap trades
208 00:18:48 --> 00:18:52 back down into the daily volume imbalance. Here's the afternoon session
209 00:18:52 --> 00:18:55 first presented fair value gap. It trades up into there's a morning
210 00:18:55 --> 00:19:00 session. First visit, very Vega, and then drops down below it. Any rain here
211 00:19:00 --> 00:19:06 hits, it starts to work lower and one more time. But during a macro 250, to
212 00:19:06 --> 00:19:12 310, hits, the first business fair back tongue twister. I'm not going to edit
213 00:19:12 --> 00:19:16 any of this stuff out. It's the first presented fair value gap of the
214 00:19:16 --> 00:19:20 afternoon opening range, which is 132 o'clock. I've taught that. And again,
215 00:19:20 --> 00:19:23 I'm saving a lot of details about that because I know some of you are so
216 00:19:23 --> 00:19:27 hurried up to try to put something in print before me, but you're all going to
217 00:19:27 --> 00:19:30 be wrong when your books get out there. I promise you, you're going to be an
218 00:19:30 --> 00:19:34 embarrassment. And I'm not trying to be mean, but I'm holding it back for my own
219 00:19:34 --> 00:19:40 books. So there you go. The macro sends it lower and attacks the sell side here,
220 00:19:41 --> 00:19:45 like that, and banged around here, if you extend that first resent the
221 00:19:45 --> 00:19:49 Fairbank gap in the afternoon opening range, end up hitting it here, the body
222 00:19:49 --> 00:19:52 stay inside it. The wicks are allowed to do the damage, and then it trades back
223 00:19:52 --> 00:19:56 down into the lower end of that daily volume imbalance. So.
224 00:20:06 --> 00:20:09 That's it for this one. Folks, hope you found it insightful. Just a quick note,
225 00:20:09 --> 00:20:13 I get a lot of questions a lot of times, folks will post things to me on X or
226 00:20:13 --> 00:20:18 they'll send it to me in the comment section on my YouTube channels. Do I
227 00:20:18 --> 00:20:24 have a account on Facebook. No, I do not. I don't have an account on Tiktok.
228 00:20:24 --> 00:20:27 I don't have an account on threads. I don't have an account on Instagram. I
229 00:20:27 --> 00:20:32 don't have an account on Discord. I have one telegram channel that you are
230 00:20:32 --> 00:20:36 welcome to be a part of. It's free. Everything I share in air real time,
231 00:20:37 --> 00:20:42 which will be later, transitioning to where I will send PDF notes and study
232 00:20:42 --> 00:20:47 notes and study guides on either market reviews for the week so that we can go
233 00:20:47 --> 00:20:53 through I want to do not a not an everyday or every week type thing, but I
234 00:20:53 --> 00:20:58 want to do a example of how, if I was going to do electronic logging or
235 00:20:58 --> 00:21:03 journaling, What would it look like, and what things would I include in it? Okay,
236 00:21:03 --> 00:21:07 so that way you kind of get a feel for what I think you should be as my student
237 00:21:07 --> 00:21:14 doing every day, every day or week or month or quarter or year. All these
238 00:21:14 --> 00:21:17 things are going to help build your understanding about who you are as a
239 00:21:17 --> 00:21:21 trader, what you're going to focus on, specialize in, and help make a more
240 00:21:21 --> 00:21:24 concise trading plan using what I'm teaching here, because not every concept
241 00:21:24 --> 00:21:29 I've ever taught is applied by me in every every instance or every model. It
242 00:21:29 --> 00:21:34 says you have to find what makes sense to you, what what's germane to your
243 00:21:35 --> 00:21:39 understanding about yourself and price. Are you a contrarian? Are you someone
244 00:21:39 --> 00:21:44 that takes a lot of things that change your mind, or are you very short fused,
245 00:21:44 --> 00:21:47 and you change your mind a lot in decisive all those things are
246 00:21:47 --> 00:21:50 characteristics, personality wise, that are going to help you build a model that
247 00:21:50 --> 00:21:56 fits that. And all of my PD arrays can be used to formulate that. But you first
248 00:21:56 --> 00:21:59 have to go through the process of discovering who you are and what makes
249 00:21:59 --> 00:22:02 you tick, and how will you self destruct? Because no matter whose
250 00:22:02 --> 00:22:06 concepts you use, who's your teacher, whatever thing you're going to trade
251 00:22:06 --> 00:22:12 with, if you are reckless and in many ways likely to self destruct at any
252 00:22:12 --> 00:22:15 time, you're going to do that with anybody's concepts, with anybody else's
253 00:22:15 --> 00:22:19 mentorship or anybody else's winning system. Even if they had winning trade
254 00:22:19 --> 00:22:23 signals, if you follow them, you'll still mess it up. Okay, so that's why I
255 00:22:23 --> 00:22:28 teach the way I do, because it isn't enough for you to know a good system or
256 00:22:28 --> 00:22:34 attacking the price action with secret weapons of PD arrays, or, you know, the
257 00:22:34 --> 00:22:38 correct supporter resistance or whatever indicator settings you like. It's first
258 00:22:38 --> 00:22:43 understanding who you are, and that's what makes me the most boring mentor,
259 00:22:44 --> 00:22:50 but it also, in many ways, makes me the leading edge of what makes it work best.
260 00:22:50 --> 00:22:55 And apply that to anybody else's strategies, and you'll see that they
261 00:22:55 --> 00:23:00 work near flawlessly because you've corrected the source problem, which is
262 00:23:00 --> 00:23:03 going to be you, the operator, and if you don't fix that first, everything
263 00:23:03 --> 00:23:08 else is going to fall Okay, so I'll talk to you next time. Be safe. You.
