EURUSD ICT OTE Entry, Short sells with logical approaches HTF
the chart basically says it all, Not much for me to expand on here, I believe / hope I am at the point in my trading and studies on this system where I can safely simplify.
I hope this marks progress for me in as much as, I can now explain the theory (I believe) ICT is teaching, Loosely of course as OTE was my first venture and now I am expanding my knowledge with the new material.
To put it simply
I want to see several things happening that line up and present me with a Low risk, High reward entry.
IF the HTF Bias is in the direction of the trade
and THEN
The market moves against the higher move
And
1. Sweeps liquidity taking highs or lows
2. Hits an optimal trade retracement of a recent impulse leg (A relevant leg)
3. (this isnt a must but its a bonus) Hits a big figure or mid figure clean number
4. Shows signs of reversal, Displacement, breaks of inside structure, Reversal stages or counter trend exhaustion.
THEN:
I am presented a low risk opportunity within the confinements of time, This is usually within the LON NY session.
With a logical target that I can justify an expectaton of price movement to.
THEN I can trade. . . .
If you just back test that, you will not only discover positive results, You will start reading the tape and plotting the story while looking at the chart as evidence, This is a superior understanding.
This is what I search for, understanding, Knowledge, accuracy in prediction.
That's much more that a profitable trade.
