β Buy-Side and Sell-Side Liquidity
β Liquidity Sweeps
β Market Structure Shift (MSS)
β Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)
β Optimal Trade Entry (OTE), where applicable
π New York Session Model:
Mark the London session range and previous dayβs key levels.
Identify where liquidity is resting.
Wait for a liquidity sweep.
Look for strong displacement and market structure confirmation.
Enter on a suitable retracement into an FVG or another valid entry zone.
Target opposing liquidity and use a stop-loss based on trade invalidation.
π₯ THE ICT APPROACH
Donβt chase price. Donβt enter because you see a candle moving fast. Wait for liquidity, confirmation, and a clear entry model.
π Analyse Gold and NASDAQ independently. They can behave differently, and neither market guarantees a setup every session.
β οΈ Trading involves significant risk. Backtest your model, watch economic news, and protect your capital with proper risk management.
STUDY THE LIQUIDITY. WAIT FOR THE SETUP. EXECUTE WITH DISCIPLINE. π―
