ICT: What do you say? This is what optimal trade entry looks like at the time of
inception. Okay, so now you can see this high right here. I use this bodies open
2
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:46,800
inside the swing. Why am I using that one because the highest one inside the
eye.
3
00:00:52,409 --> 00:01:05,399
And we're using the lowest body candle here. So this is our range. Okay, price
rallies up, everyone else is going to be afraid of this, but you can't be afraid
4
00:01:05,399 --> 00:01:15,239
of it, you have to step right in there and take it. Now, this is going to be
primarily for optimal trade entry. But for some of my other students, you'll see
5
00:01:15,239 --> 00:01:28,709
that this is also another entry for several other patterns and the overlap. And
just for clarity sake, just to get you guys all worked up until a froth right,
6
00:01:28,709 --> 00:01:44,909
so we have a bearish order block. Right there. Careful not to make it form fit,
the open is 116 21, the candles high comes in is exactly at 116 21. Precision,
7
00:01:45,209 --> 00:01:56,189
as promised, not to mention this down close candle right before this run up
taking out this short term high. This is an ICT breaker, that also when price
8
00:01:56,189 --> 00:02:08,489
returns back to that is also a sell or an upside target. And that also comes in
the form of 116 21. Exactly the same high here. Okay, there's a lot of precision
9
00:02:08,489 --> 00:02:15,179
in the stuff that I teach. But that's not the scope of this teaching, I just
want to throw that out there because a lot of my patterns overlap. And when
10
00:02:15,179 --> 00:02:23,819
there's confluences, like that makes it very strong. So let's take a look at
what the pattern looks like. So that way we can memorize it, what it looks like,
11
00:02:24,059 --> 00:02:41,309
and see it in its truest form. Okay, and there is the New York kill zone, ICD
kills him. And here's the price swing measured down as indicated. And this is
12
00:02:41,309 --> 00:02:52,109
where your entry would be inside the optimal trade entry. And your risk would be
up to this point here. Okay. Now on this example, and literally limiting it to
13
00:02:52,439 --> 00:03:02,999
this level, because I'm disregarding this wick, I want to look at this as a more
of a true or high than this wick in here. Now, you could elect to use that for
14
00:03:02,999 --> 00:03:12,719
your stop loss there. But for this example, for clarity, I like to use that,
whereas otherwise it would be actual high of the swing high. But that's your
15
00:03:12,809 --> 00:03:28,109
your risk. Okay. And the objective for scaling, profit is always going to be
where you project your fit to, and we have the lowest body price down here. From
16
00:03:28,109 --> 00:03:40,829
the sell off. Price trades down to it since since a lot of opportunity really to
take profits at that level. And notice it does not go any lower. This is the
17
00:03:40,829 --> 00:03:52,799
reason why scaling out makes greater sense than those individuals that will say
that's stupid or shouldn't be done. So shorting here, taking first profit here,
18
00:03:53,579 --> 00:04:03,509
moving your stop to a logical breakeven or locking in something. Eventually, the
market does trade back up to equilibrium, which we're not going to teach here as
19
00:04:03,509 --> 00:04:16,859
well. But it's a nice example of how taking partials at a logical level using
optimal trade entry makes perfect sense. Till next time, wish good luck and good
20
00:04:16,859 --> 00:04:17,249
trading.
