ICT YT - 2025-09-25 - Focus On Forex DXY EurUsd GbpUsd 09-24-2025

1 00:00:15 --> 00:00:18 ICT: All right, folks, all right. So we're looking at this September, 24 2025
2 00:00:19 --> 00:00:26 focus on forex. Usual Suspects, Dollar Index, Euro, dollar and POUND DOLLAR.
3 00:00:32 --> 00:00:41 As a reminder, I didn't do a review or lecture on dollar or Forex last night,
4 00:00:41 --> 00:00:46 and I stated that we would be waiting for the reaction off of the consequence
5 00:00:46 --> 00:00:52 of the inversion fair value gap I mentioned on Monday night's lecture. So
6 00:00:52 --> 00:00:59 we're going to review that here, and you can see the response after having shared
7 00:00:59 --> 00:01:08 it with you on Monday. Left hand side daily chart. This is the city that we
8 00:01:08 --> 00:01:15 looked for the market to come back down into and not breach the midpoint and
9 00:01:15 --> 00:01:19 trade into the lower half. This little retracement back down into that area
10 00:01:19 --> 00:01:24 right there is this line here on the five minute chart. As you can see, it
11 00:01:24 --> 00:01:29 hits it perfectly, stops dead in its tracks, consolidates around it and runs
12 00:01:29 --> 00:01:34 up, uses the top of it here, shows discount sensitivity and then starts to
13 00:01:34 --> 00:01:41 rally higher. So I know that the common folk out there loving to find things to
14 00:01:41 --> 00:01:46 talk about and whatnot, and they have to find their place in this world. So what
15 00:01:46 --> 00:01:50 they've done is is they have tried to say that I've rebranded things that
16 00:01:50 --> 00:01:54 existed before me. You'll never find this in anything like you'll never see
17 00:01:54 --> 00:01:59 this taught anywhere prior to me, ever mentioning it. Okay? No inversion for
18 00:01:59 --> 00:02:02 everybody. You got no consequent encouragement, no respect to the upper
19 00:02:02 --> 00:02:07 half. And I say these things because, and I'm gonna make this statement that
20 00:02:08 --> 00:02:11 way, I don't have to say it again in the videos, but I do it a lot on social
21 00:02:11 --> 00:02:19 media. And here's the reason why AI Artificial Intelligence. Okay, when you
22 00:02:19 --> 00:02:25 or anyone else asks questions, you know, who taught ICT? Who is ICT mentor, who
23 00:02:25 --> 00:02:32 taught ICT Smart Money concepts? What did ICT rebrand? Okay, what? Where's it
24 00:02:32 --> 00:02:39 getting the information from? It's going to go out there and whole accumulate all
25 00:02:39 --> 00:02:43 of the chatter online. So the big push has been and this is why I was always
26 00:02:43 --> 00:02:47 standing in front of it all the time. The big push is, if there's enough of
27 00:02:47 --> 00:02:50 these Yahoos out there constantly putting it out there, that I rebranded
28 00:02:50 --> 00:02:53 this. Rebranded that here's the simplest thing, whenever you see someone say
29 00:02:53 --> 00:02:59 that, ask for the book, ask for the page number, ask for the details. How I teach
30 00:02:59 --> 00:03:03 these PD arrays and the smart money concepts prior to 1996 is when I coined
31 00:03:03 --> 00:03:11 all these things. It never will appear. It now here's here's even better. 2016
32 00:03:11 --> 00:03:15 is when everybody started ripping me off because they took my paid mentorship and
33 00:03:15 --> 00:03:18 made their own little mentorships, their dollar menu mentorships, and they
34 00:03:18 --> 00:03:21 started doing all these things to try to make a name for themselves, and the
35 00:03:21 --> 00:03:27 people that have failed since then, since they couldn't beat me, okay? And
36 00:03:27 --> 00:03:31 they can't pretend to be like me, because there ain't no one like me. The
37 00:03:31 --> 00:03:36 idea is, if they can just put it out there in AI enough times, all the chat
38 00:03:36 --> 00:03:41 engines, okay, the chat, GPT, the grok, all those things, they're going to go
39 00:03:41 --> 00:03:46 out and look for the opinion, the accumulative opinion of what people are
40 00:03:46 --> 00:03:51 thinking or saying, listen, public opinion isn't fact. It's just an
41 00:03:51 --> 00:03:56 opinion. Here's the facts. You can't come up with a source that I rebranded
42 00:03:56 --> 00:04:02 from an order block is not supply and demand. Okay? I don't do anything with
43 00:04:02 --> 00:04:06 Wyckoff again. I said this before. I'll say it again. If Wyckoff was alive, he
44 00:04:06 --> 00:04:10 would be watching my videos and taking notes, and that makes some of you mad,
45 00:04:10 --> 00:04:15 but that's simply just the facts. Okay? So I want you to remember, anytime
46 00:04:15 --> 00:04:19 someone says that, ask them to cite their source. Where are they again?
47 00:04:19 --> 00:04:23 Because they never, they never, ever, ever come forward with anything, no
48 00:04:23 --> 00:04:29 documentation, No book, no video, no anything. It's just they keep putting
49 00:04:29 --> 00:04:32 out there because someone else has said it, and because everyone's so sensitive,
50 00:04:33 --> 00:04:36 they're so thin skinned, and they want to fit in. That's what social media
51 00:04:36 --> 00:04:40 does. It makes you want to fit into a crowd. And that's why we have like a
52 00:04:40 --> 00:04:44 cult like community here, because everybody likes what they're learning
53 00:04:44 --> 00:04:50 from me. It's the cult of winning. And the bottom line is, it's sense of
54 00:04:50 --> 00:04:55 empowerment, feeling like you belong to something, not just here with me, but
55 00:04:55 --> 00:04:59 anywhere. And that's what social media does. It cultivates that desire in all.
56 00:04:59 --> 00:05:04 All of us because we don't want to be alone. Well, in trading, you want to be
57 00:05:04 --> 00:05:08 alone. You want to be an island unto yourself. Okay, so I just want to toss
58 00:05:08 --> 00:05:11 this in there. I'm not going to put it in videos ever again. But the bottom
59 00:05:11 --> 00:05:15 line is, there's no one that's going to be able to prove that I rebranded
60 00:05:15 --> 00:05:21 anything. All of my stuff, all of my stuff that I say is mine. It's mine
61 00:05:22 --> 00:05:28 period. So you can see it delivering right to the tick Okay, as I was
62 00:05:28 --> 00:05:32 indicating last week I talked about this, and it was delivering here
63 00:05:32 --> 00:05:38 perfectly on Tuesday, and then giving it time to expand, it rallies up and
64 00:05:38 --> 00:05:42 intact. It's the short term little buy side in here. Trades back into the
65 00:05:42 --> 00:05:45 volume and balances here. But we're going to look at another portion of
66 00:05:45 --> 00:05:53 price action. These quadrants being added. You can see how it's beautifully
67 00:05:53 --> 00:05:57 holding price in the upper half. That was the condition I told you, the
68 00:05:57 --> 00:06:01 algorithm that doesn't supposedly exist, right? The algorithm is going to keep
69 00:06:01 --> 00:06:06 price in the upper half and not trade in the lower half of a random area in price
70 00:06:06 --> 00:06:11 action that no other retail trader, educator, teacher, ever talked about,
71 00:06:12 --> 00:06:18 period. Now either I'm very good at predicting the future, or I know what
72 00:06:18 --> 00:06:25 I'm talking about because I authored it. This is proof, delivering to the tick
73 00:06:25 --> 00:06:29 and then delivering up right out of there, okay, even giving another kiss
74 00:06:29 --> 00:06:36 right in here before it leads trading higher, explosive run up into this
75 00:06:36 --> 00:06:42 premium wick. Okay, so this premium wick is part of this cell sign imbalanced buy
76 00:06:42 --> 00:06:47 side and efficiency trading above this because you have relative equal highs.
77 00:06:47 --> 00:06:50 So what would be their next PDA rate? It would go above that. Oh, you're going to
78 00:06:50 --> 00:06:55 look at the wick here, and every wick we treat like a gap, and how we treat gaps,
79 00:06:55 --> 00:07:01 just like I did down here. We grade them, okay, high upper quadrant,
80 00:07:01 --> 00:07:06 consequent midpoint, lower quadrant and the low and, no, that is not quarters
81 00:07:06 --> 00:07:11 theory. Okay, so please stop emailing me about that. I have no affinity for it.
82 00:07:11 --> 00:07:15 It's just somebody else trying to do something, saying it was I'm hiding
83 00:07:15 --> 00:07:18 something. It has nothing to do with me. Okay? Has absolutely nothing to do with
84 00:07:18 --> 00:07:25 me. And this is what I teach. Okay, it's quadrants on gaps and inefficiencies.
85 00:07:25 --> 00:07:36 Wicks are just like a gap. Okay? So it's reaching up into this premium wick. And
86 00:07:36 --> 00:07:42 you want to have these levels on your chart. That's these levels over here. So
87 00:07:42 --> 00:07:47 here's the low of that premium wick on this day here, here's the lower
88 00:07:47 --> 00:07:51 quadrant, and then here's the consequent encroachment. And they've left relative
89 00:07:51 --> 00:07:59 equal highs here. That's rather convenient. And this wick here, this
90 00:07:59 --> 00:08:05 premium wick. Now, why am I picking this one? This one's longer than this one. We
91 00:08:05 --> 00:08:09 go back one slide so you can see it. See it's slightly higher than that one.
92 00:08:09 --> 00:08:16 That's why I'm annotating it. Okay, if we're, if we're down here in the
93 00:08:16 --> 00:08:21 intraday portion of the day, like, like here, it's going to trade up higher. I
94 00:08:21 --> 00:08:25 don't want to just simply use this one when this is a lot more range. Well, not
95 00:08:25 --> 00:08:30 a lot more, but it's more range by contrast to this range, and they're
96 00:08:30 --> 00:08:33 right next to each other. So which 1am I going to use if I'm going to be using
97 00:08:33 --> 00:08:39 any gradients on a wick, this one, it's the higher reaching one. So that's why
98 00:08:39 --> 00:08:43 this is being used here. You can see that the bodies are being respected of
99 00:08:43 --> 00:08:48 the low of that premium wick, and then the bodies are accumulating around here
100 00:08:48 --> 00:08:53 as well, inside of a fair value gap. Then it rallies up, it cuts back down
101 00:08:53 --> 00:08:57 and touches the high of it, and then sends it in here. So there's an
102 00:08:57 --> 00:09:02 overlapping of these quadrants that need to be transposed into your lower time
103 00:09:02 --> 00:09:06 frame charts, like a one man chart, when here's here's the part where you write
104 00:09:06 --> 00:09:13 down your notes, votes, if you see a quadrant or a PD array that has gradient
105 00:09:13 --> 00:09:19 levels in it, too, if that is sitting right with a PD array, like a fair value
106 00:09:19 --> 00:09:24 gap, an order block, a breaker. It super charges the likelihood that it's going
107 00:09:24 --> 00:09:30 to be very sensitive. And if you apply time, what time of day, what day of week
108 00:09:30 --> 00:09:38 is it? You know? Is it a macro time? It further increases the likelihood that
109 00:09:38 --> 00:09:43 it's going to be moving in what you would expect based on your analysis,
110 00:09:43 --> 00:09:47 that doesn't equate to profitability, because just because you can read price
111 00:09:47 --> 00:09:51 action, just because you can time the market, doesn't mean that you can manage
112 00:09:51 --> 00:09:57 yourself or manage the risks of money management or trade management. It just
113 00:09:57 --> 00:10:01 means that doing these types of things. Things will help make you better at tape
114 00:10:01 --> 00:10:05 reading, which is what I promise everyone you will get better at reading
115 00:10:05 --> 00:10:09 the tape reading the market live, watching what it's doing. But I can
116 00:10:09 --> 00:10:12 never promise any of you being profitable, because there's a big
117 00:10:12 --> 00:10:16 barrier between knowing how to read price action correctly and accurately
118 00:10:16 --> 00:10:21 and profitable trading, because you bring to the table lots of baggage,
119 00:10:21 --> 00:10:23 everybody does some kind of a
120 00:10:26 --> 00:10:31 hindrance, not trusting yourself, not feeling like you are deserving of it,
121 00:10:32 --> 00:10:37 overconfidence, lack of confidence, ego, you know, this fear and greed, all these
122 00:10:37 --> 00:10:41 things. And it could be many more things, but that's going to be the
123 00:10:41 --> 00:10:45 barrier. So I've always maintained the consistency of reminding you that I
124 00:10:45 --> 00:10:48 can't promise and no one can either. So it's not like someone can just slide on
125 00:10:48 --> 00:10:51 and say, lock and take that over for your ICT. No one can promise you
126 00:10:51 --> 00:10:56 profitability guaranteed. You can. Cannot do it, folks, I promise you,
127 00:10:56 --> 00:10:59 because if they could, they would be the biggest name in the industry. They would
128 00:10:59 --> 00:11:02 be the biggest name in the industry, if they could guarantee that you're going
129 00:11:02 --> 00:11:05 to be profitable. Going to be profitable using their stuff. And I like to think
130 00:11:05 --> 00:11:09 of myself as having superior intellect in terms of how to read price action
131 00:11:09 --> 00:11:14 against everyone else, and I can't do that. So if I can't do that with the
132 00:11:14 --> 00:11:18 most superior concepts in the marketplace, nobody else is going to do
133 00:11:18 --> 00:11:21 that either. And you're welcome to find them. You're welcome to put them to the
134 00:11:21 --> 00:11:24 test, okay, but they're not going to be able to do it for you. I promise you
135 00:11:25 --> 00:11:32 that. All right, so here we're looking at again, just moved forward in time a
136 00:11:32 --> 00:11:38 little bit in the same day. Here, the market reacted off of that inversion.
137 00:11:38 --> 00:11:43 Fair Pay got right here, and we'll start putting in the PD, right here's London,
138 00:11:43 --> 00:11:48 open kill zone. New York, open kill zone. And the London close. Okay, so
139 00:11:48 --> 00:11:51 it's kind of like caps day for forex. I don't really like to look at anything in
140 00:11:51 --> 00:11:57 the afternoon, noon to afternoon hours post noon time, Eastern Time for forex
141 00:11:57 --> 00:12:02 or dollar index. It's just there might be some moves, then it might be simply
142 00:12:02 --> 00:12:07 just related to FOMC rate announcement stuff. But generally, there's really no
143 00:12:07 --> 00:12:13 real interesting price moves for me after 12 noon. Okay, so if you're a
144 00:12:13 --> 00:12:17 Forex guy or gal, you like the you look at these markets and you're ever
145 00:12:17 --> 00:12:20 wondering what it is, I'm considering it in the afternoon. I'm not considering
146 00:12:20 --> 00:12:24 anything, you know, I'd be focusing on index features, and then I paid
147 00:12:24 --> 00:12:26 mentorship. I thought, just like that. So it's not like it's a new flavor for
148 00:12:26 --> 00:12:33 me. Now it's always been that way. All right. So here is the PDA raised. We
149 00:12:33 --> 00:12:36 have a bullish fair value gap, institutional or flow entry drill, which
150 00:12:36 --> 00:12:39 where it goes in just a little bit but fails to even go to halfway or
151 00:12:39 --> 00:12:42 consequent encroachment. We have a breakaway gap here, and then we have no
152 00:12:42 --> 00:12:45 bullish fair value gap with the institutional overflow entry drill
153 00:12:45 --> 00:12:49 again, once more, just trading in, but not hitting the consequent encroachment
154 00:12:49 --> 00:12:54 halfway point. Bullish fair value gap here accumulates around the consequence
155 00:12:54 --> 00:13:00 level, hits the high, but here sends price earning higher into the premium
156 00:13:00 --> 00:13:07 wick. Look at the price over here, 97 649, that's this one here. That's this
157 00:13:07 --> 00:13:13 wick low. That's the low of that premium wick. So once it trades into this here,
158 00:13:15 --> 00:13:21 it comes back down in that's the upper quadrant of that premium wick. And now
159 00:13:21 --> 00:13:24 it's a fair value gap touching it as well, and it's also during a macro time.
160 00:13:26 --> 00:13:30 Hallelujah. Thank you, Jesus. There you go. Okay, you got another unicorn in
161 00:13:30 --> 00:13:33 your repertoire now, rally is higher. Can't find that in any kind of
162 00:13:33 --> 00:13:36 textbooks, either, but they're going to put it on Amazon books, I promise you,
163 00:13:37 --> 00:13:39 before Christmas, there'll be dozens of books out there teaching what I'm
164 00:13:39 --> 00:13:44 teaching right now, and they'll still be short on the information. So the runs up
165 00:13:44 --> 00:13:53 into the high of the premium wick here, which is 97.823 that's this here, and
166 00:13:53 --> 00:13:58 then we get into this premium wick. Okay, now quadrant of that is 97 861,
167 00:14:00 --> 00:14:04 that's here, and then fall short of reaching the consequence, but leads
168 00:14:04 --> 00:14:10 relative equal highs here, rolling over into Euro, dollar. I'm going to save a
169 00:14:10 --> 00:14:15 little bit of time, because I have to do a futures focus on futures video. I'm
170 00:14:15 --> 00:14:19 keeping them separate because I'm trying to get a feel for the community where,
171 00:14:19 --> 00:14:24 like, where is the majority of the interest? Is it isn't in forex still, or
172 00:14:24 --> 00:14:30 is it now in futures, or is it equal? It's something I'm trying to get a feel
173 00:14:30 --> 00:14:34 for. So, you know, whatever you guys are watching. I know some of you watch both
174 00:14:34 --> 00:14:38 because you just want to hear what I'm talking about. But the hardcore Forex
175 00:14:38 --> 00:14:41 guys, they're just, they're not interested in futures, and I get it, I
176 00:14:41 --> 00:14:46 understand, but this is something I'm trying to get more data from. So here's
177 00:14:46 --> 00:14:49 Euro, dollar daily chart on the left hand side. This was a buy side of
178 00:14:49 --> 00:14:53 balance, sell side efficiency. But when price trades down and through it, this
179 00:14:53 --> 00:14:56 becomes a inversion, fair value gap. That's why the shade is orange. Whenever
180 00:14:56 --> 00:15:01 you see an orange rectangle, my charts if it's an. Close candle that I'm
181 00:15:01 --> 00:15:06 anchoring to. Okay, this is a buy side, and balance outside efficiency and
182 00:15:06 --> 00:15:10 prices below it. I'm expecting this to act as an inversion for Vega. That's
183 00:15:10 --> 00:15:15 that's basically what I'm saying. And the market trades up into here, outside
184 00:15:15 --> 00:15:21 the box a little bit, and then breaks aggressively lower during today, and
185 00:15:21 --> 00:15:25 that was on the basis of a higher dollar that was called last week. I said I was
186 00:15:25 --> 00:15:31 bullish. I wasn't wishy washy. I said, until it proves by going down lower,
187 00:15:33 --> 00:15:37 through a inversion fair value gap, that I'm going to stay with it being bullish.
188 00:15:37 --> 00:15:40 You can check me on it. Go watch the videos from last weekend and watch
189 00:15:40 --> 00:15:46 Monday's video, but the market crash is lower on Euro dollar on a higher run on
190 00:15:46 --> 00:15:50 Dollar Index. Now inside of that inversion Fairbank up, I already have
191 00:15:50 --> 00:15:55 the gradient levels, and I have this discount wick graded as well, and then
192 00:15:55 --> 00:16:01 we have the old inefficiency down here that I mentioned last week. So here is
193 00:16:01 --> 00:16:06 the London Open kill zone for Euro. The market breaks lower after creating a
194 00:16:06 --> 00:16:10 fair value gap. Institution or flow entry drill there during the London Open
195 00:16:10 --> 00:16:14 kill zone trades lower, accumulates shorts around the consequent
196 00:16:14 --> 00:16:17 encroachment of the inversion fair value gap. You can see that here that red
197 00:16:17 --> 00:16:22 line. Just check the chart over here at the price, and you'll see it's this area
198 00:16:22 --> 00:16:28 in here, so inside this daily range, price is now sitting right here, at that
199 00:16:28 --> 00:16:33 moment, is yet to do any of this price action. But then we break away with this
200 00:16:33 --> 00:16:38 gap here. It's leaving a consolidation in consequent encroachment of a higher
201 00:16:38 --> 00:16:43 Time Frame PD array. So any gap left there, that's an easy way of classifying
202 00:16:43 --> 00:16:47 as a breakaway gap. I just answered a lot of your questions. You guys asked
203 00:16:47 --> 00:16:52 me, How do you know about notice and annotating specific gaps and calling
204 00:16:52 --> 00:16:55 them breakaway gaps? This is one of those things right here. Okay, this is
205 00:16:55 --> 00:16:58 the stuff you're supposed to put in your journal. This is what you're supposed to
206 00:16:58 --> 00:17:00 write down. This is also what you're looking for all the time. When you go
207 00:17:00 --> 00:17:04 through your analysis, look for gaps that are inside consolidations or mid
208 00:17:04 --> 00:17:09 points of higher Time Frame, PD arrays, again, not found in retail books.
209 00:17:09 --> 00:17:14 They'll talk about a breakaway gap after it's happened. It sells books. It sold
210 00:17:14 --> 00:17:18 books for a long time, over the last few decades. But nobody's going to tell you
211 00:17:18 --> 00:17:23 but me. They're going to say nothing about what a breakaway gap is during
212 00:17:23 --> 00:17:26 real time price action, but I've done that. I've done it on live streams, I've
213 00:17:26 --> 00:17:29 done it on Twitter, I've called it live and telegram. I've done all these
214 00:17:29 --> 00:17:36 things. Okay, so the idea here is we see my the market trade lower into the lower
215 00:17:36 --> 00:17:40 quadrant, trades through it, and then we have a city here, sell sign, imbalance,
216 00:17:40 --> 00:17:44 buy side and efficiency. We have the institutional order flow entry drill
217 00:17:45 --> 00:17:49 where it goes up and not it fails to get to midpoint. Consequent growth from the
218 00:17:49 --> 00:17:52 fair value gap breaks lower comes right back to the low of that inversion fair
219 00:17:52 --> 00:17:56 value gap. So we're trading right here at this price on the daily range, right
220 00:17:56 --> 00:18:01 there. Okay, and the market starts going lower, creates another fair value gap
221 00:18:01 --> 00:18:06 respects the constant encroachment and then breaks lower once more. Sibi. Fair
222 00:18:06 --> 00:18:11 value gap trades up to consequent encroachment again and moves into this
223 00:18:11 --> 00:18:15 old inefficiency here in a green rectangle, we trade down to the low of
224 00:18:15 --> 00:18:19 it twice comes back to the high of it. Okay. This is not classic support and
225 00:18:19 --> 00:18:22 resistance, folks. It's trading inside of an inefficiency during a New York
226 00:18:22 --> 00:18:27 open kill zone. Creates the high trades lower. We have immediate rebalance here,
227 00:18:27 --> 00:18:34 breaks lower trades to the high of this discount wick, and then we trade to the
228 00:18:34 --> 00:18:37 lower quadrant here. That's this point, right there.
229 00:18:42 --> 00:18:51 No right continuing on with the British pound versus us, dollar or cable. Left
230 00:18:51 --> 00:18:56 hand chart is the daily chart, and the five minute chart is here on the right
231 00:18:56 --> 00:19:01 hand side. So on the left hand side we have this city here that I've graded,
232 00:19:01 --> 00:19:04 and I didn't put any color on it because there's no there's no need for it. You
233 00:19:04 --> 00:19:10 can see the levels up here, and then we have this fair value gap, and I have
234 00:19:10 --> 00:19:15 this discount wick annotated, this discount wick annotated, and this
235 00:19:15 --> 00:19:21 discount wick annotated. Okay, so when you're looking at the lower time frame
236 00:19:21 --> 00:19:25 chart. Anytime you see these levels here, all you have to do is look at the
237 00:19:25 --> 00:19:31 price. Okay, these prices will tell you where you're at in proximity to the
238 00:19:32 --> 00:19:35 daily range and where you're at intraday, so that way you're not going
239 00:19:35 --> 00:19:40 to get lost in the sauce. Okay, so the market opens up inside that fair value
240 00:19:40 --> 00:19:45 gap. All right, so with it trading in the opening of that fair value gap, and
241 00:19:45 --> 00:19:50 it's bearish, while dollar is bullish, that's going to cause euro and pound to
242 00:19:50 --> 00:19:57 fall against the dollars rallying. We have a London Open kill zone, sell,
243 00:19:57 --> 00:20:01 sign, efficiency, institutional or phone. Entry drill. And then once more,
244 00:20:01 --> 00:20:06 we trade back to it here. So because I didn't want to have to cram in any kind
245 00:20:06 --> 00:20:09 of annotations there, because I want to do it in one chart and be done, I didn't
246 00:20:09 --> 00:20:12 annotate here, but it's an institutional or flow entry here, entry drill here.
247 00:20:13 --> 00:20:18 And then we have the low tagged one more time of that fair value gap trades
248 00:20:18 --> 00:20:21 lower. But also notice it's hitting it at same time, it's consequent
249 00:20:21 --> 00:20:37 encroachment inside this inefficiency right here so that price is 135, 06,
250 00:20:45 --> 00:20:55 135 06 is right in here. Okay, so the upper quadrants 135 074 that's this
251 00:20:55 --> 00:21:00 right here. So we opened, traded higher and then went lower. This is during the
252 00:21:02 --> 00:21:05 like the Asian session going into midnight area time. It doesn't show it
253 00:21:05 --> 00:21:09 on the chart, because I want to have the whole run of the day from London session
254 00:21:09 --> 00:21:13 down. So I got this running there for a second. Just bear with me. I'm getting
255 00:21:13 --> 00:21:18 old. Okay, the fair value gap here trades up into consequent encouragement
256 00:21:18 --> 00:21:25 there breaks lower, accumulation around the low of that inefficiency of daily
257 00:21:25 --> 00:21:33 wick and that price comes in at 134, 87.2 right here, right now. We're in the
258 00:21:33 --> 00:21:38 daily range at this level here, but it's right there. And then trade away from
259 00:21:38 --> 00:21:43 it, come back up. Hit it once more. Break lower. We have a bullish fair
260 00:21:43 --> 00:21:47 value gap here that we went back and forth through, and now we're below it
261 00:21:47 --> 00:21:50 trades back up to it here. So it's an inversion fair value gap. Note the
262 00:21:50 --> 00:21:54 color. Then we have a sell side imbalance, buy side efficiency here,
263 00:21:54 --> 00:21:57 fair value gap. The bodies are respecting that, and it only stabs up
264 00:21:57 --> 00:22:02 just to get the inversion. Fair value gap breaks away here. So this is a
265 00:22:02 --> 00:22:06 measuring gap. It never filled it in again. And this is a bearish order
266 00:22:06 --> 00:22:13 block. We're breaking lower, but look at the overall run. This is about halfway
267 00:22:13 --> 00:22:20 from this high down to that low. So measuring gaps always about halfway, and
268 00:22:20 --> 00:22:30 we're trading into now this earn efficiency by the discount wick. We
269 00:22:30 --> 00:22:34 trade down low, hit the high of it traded a lower quadrant, come back up to
270 00:22:34 --> 00:22:39 the high, hit the order block, which is change in state of delivery. Change in
271 00:22:39 --> 00:22:43 the state of delivery is the opening price of an up close candle. It was
272 00:22:43 --> 00:22:47 rallying here. The algorithm changes gears. And anything at that price are
273 00:22:47 --> 00:22:56 lower, it will spool and reach for lower discount or sell side. So another
274 00:22:56 --> 00:22:59 inversion fair value cap. We have a bullish fair value gap that we trade
275 00:22:59 --> 00:23:04 down through, we trade back up to here, reject and go lower during the New York
276 00:23:04 --> 00:23:10 open kill zone. We come out of that discount wick, and now the next one
277 00:23:10 --> 00:23:15 would be in here, as this levels here. So we have a smaller fair value gap.
278 00:23:15 --> 00:23:19 Trades to consequent encroachment there and then dips down into the upper
279 00:23:19 --> 00:23:22 quadrant. Doesn't quite get to the consequent encroachment, which is the
280 00:23:22 --> 00:23:28 midpoint of this whip down here, and it rallies up to the lower quadrant of this
281 00:23:29 --> 00:23:35 level here, 134, 573, and that's the level right here, right to the tick.
282 00:23:35 --> 00:23:41 Look at that. This is better than pivots, folks. Okay, I promise you floor
283 00:23:41 --> 00:23:47 pivots. They might work sometimes, but when you come you basically compress
284 00:23:47 --> 00:23:51 everything I've taught about reading price action and including time, and
285 00:23:51 --> 00:23:57 then you add these things to it. This is how you use inefficiencies in the wicks.
286 00:23:57 --> 00:24:02 Okay, I'm focusing this portion of the mentorship with just this principle
287 00:24:02 --> 00:24:06 here, because it answers a lot of the questions you've had looming for years.
288 00:24:06 --> 00:24:11 How do you know which one this is what I'm doing? This is exactly what I'm
289 00:24:11 --> 00:24:15 doing. Okay? No, it's not enigma. No, it's not in any other retail stuff. I
290 00:24:15 --> 00:24:19 didn't learn it from anybody else. No one else taught it to me. Okay? But this
291 00:24:19 --> 00:24:21 is what you're looking for. You're looking for. You're looking for a
292 00:24:21 --> 00:24:26 blending and a confluence of PD arrays and time and if it happens to occur
293 00:24:26 --> 00:24:32 inside of old discount or premium wicks of candlesticks, you're going to have
294 00:24:32 --> 00:24:38 wonderful odds in your favor of seeing price action move like you want it to.
295 00:24:38 --> 00:24:42 Now the problem is, is you're going to either overstay your welcome, stay in
296 00:24:42 --> 00:24:48 the trade too long, or just not have the confidence enough to do anything with
297 00:24:48 --> 00:24:51 it, and that's going to be the balls in your court for that. You have to
298 00:24:51 --> 00:24:55 determine where you go, but I can only just teach you how to read it, and you
299 00:24:55 --> 00:24:58 have to practice and learn how to do it better. But then the market just
300 00:24:58 --> 00:25:05 consolidates around. The low of that inefficiency right here. It's a
301 00:25:05 --> 00:25:13 beautiful sell off from this fair value gap here down to a discount click.
302 00:25:13 --> 00:25:19 Notice we didn't even have to break the range going into this low. See that? So
303 00:25:19 --> 00:25:24 it's trading inside the range of what that candlesticks low and that
304 00:25:24 --> 00:25:30 candlesticks high. See, it's it's a whole lot more going on than what you
305 00:25:30 --> 00:25:35 think and like, this is the reason why I never run out of information or teaching
306 00:25:35 --> 00:25:40 concepts, because it's vast, like I could literally teach every single day
307 00:25:41 --> 00:25:47 for four hours, and never run out of the teaching I would run out of life before
308 00:25:47 --> 00:25:50 I would run out of teaching, because there's so many things you can do, and
309 00:25:50 --> 00:25:54 once you understand the freedom that my concepts give you, all you have to do is
310 00:25:54 --> 00:25:58 find something that makes sense to you. What time of day can you trade? What
311 00:25:58 --> 00:26:03 market do you like to trade? What? What? PD arrays. Can you see? You only need
312 00:26:03 --> 00:26:07 one. I mean, look at all the ones in here. See the problem is, is you want to
313 00:26:07 --> 00:26:12 look at the ones up here, or you want to be up here near the high in the open,
314 00:26:12 --> 00:26:17 which is not even shown in the chart here. Think about it like the highest
315 00:26:17 --> 00:26:25 point this price scale goes is 1.3 515, and that's right in here. It's not even
316 00:26:25 --> 00:26:32 getting up to the fair value gap, which you can look in Asians into the midnight
317 00:26:32 --> 00:26:37 hours or so. You can see that forming that portion of cables high. So have
318 00:26:37 --> 00:26:41 that in your journal. But I'm focusing primarily on this because I just want to
319 00:26:41 --> 00:26:45 talk about the london session going in. Going into the New York session, and
320 00:26:45 --> 00:26:48 then going down into the London close, where it creates the opposite and the
321 00:26:48 --> 00:26:53 daily range, which is what you saw down here. There it is. So anything that's
322 00:26:53 --> 00:26:58 formed a low in this period here, I'm going to be content with that, probably
323 00:26:58 --> 00:27:01 being very close to the low if I'm bearish. And I told you last week, I'm
324 00:27:01 --> 00:27:06 bullish on dollar. I told you what I was looking for, exactly what price level I
325 00:27:06 --> 00:27:10 was looking for, the consequence of that inversion fair value gap that hadn't
326 00:27:10 --> 00:27:15 even formed yet. Find that in these dollar mentor, dollar mentorships that
327 00:27:16 --> 00:27:20 are going around here, they're not even calling it ICT anymore. They're using my
328 00:27:20 --> 00:27:24 language still, they're using my terms, but they don't ever say anything about
329 00:27:24 --> 00:27:30 it's ICT okay. You will judge them by their fruits if they cannot do it like I
330 00:27:30 --> 00:27:35 tell you and show you. They can't teach it. They can only talk about like
331 00:27:35 --> 00:27:40 yesterday's news. Okay? I'm the weather man. I'm telling you what the weather's
332 00:27:40 --> 00:27:43 gonna be tomorrow and the next day and the next day out, they're telling you
333 00:27:43 --> 00:27:47 what the headlines are about yesterday. They're telling you who won the football
334 00:27:47 --> 00:27:50 game yesterday, who's who's going to the World Series, because this was the
335 00:27:51 --> 00:27:54 outcome of this game or that game. Okay, I'm not doing that. I'm telling you in
336 00:27:54 --> 00:27:57 advance where it's going to go. And I'm using higher Time Frame charts, because
337 00:27:57 --> 00:28:01 I've had so many complaints over the years that all I talk about is these
338 00:28:01 --> 00:28:05 lower time frames. Well, I'm teaching both right now how to blend both.
339 00:28:05 --> 00:28:08 Whether you want to stay on the higher Time Frame daily or you want to use the
340 00:28:08 --> 00:28:12 lower time frames, it doesn't matter. You have now a balanced perspective of
341 00:28:12 --> 00:28:12 it.
342 00:28:22 --> 00:28:26 Now right, folks, hope you got something out of this one. If not, I don't want to
343 00:28:26 --> 00:28:30 hear about it. I'll talk to you next time. Be safe.
