Turtle Soup Enthusiast

Hello. I'm sure you know my name from my account name. I am a young trader who started trading around 6 months ago. Sincee when I started my Dad took me on the path of ICT and avoiding trendlines, indicators etc. Now, I am not a ICT disciple, who hates on 'retail traders' who use trendline strategies like all the others. I know you can make money with any system with correct discipline, risk management and being able to control your emotions. However, I do believe ICT and his smart money concepts allow you to milk the most out of the markets. But my strategy(turtle soup) is actually learnt from Romeotpt on twitter. Amazing trader and he is changing my life a lot. The other guys, who I use and combine there analysis and techniques is finessee_Fx on twitter and Traderdaye. They all are amazing guys and everything I am successful with will go down to them and ICT's core content. I dont watch ICT's new content, which many other new ICT kids do. The core content is all you'll ever need. The new kids watch his new stuff on a 1m timeframe and think they don't need the higher time frame. And it's all the new ICT boys who flame 'retail'. They are no better then candle stick pattern traders themselves. They are pattern traders. I was like that once and I got WRECKED. I'll tell you their robotic pattern strategy they think will make them rich. Liquidity sweep on a 1minute. Break of structure or market structure shift and an entry off a 1minute FVG or order block. No HTF bias. and I was like this too but quickly changed. I am not a regular ICT student. I only watch core content and the guys I stated before. Anyways. This will be my journal foor turtle soup and if anyone ever needs help I am here. I will definitely record trades on here, and possibly do a weekly review posted to here. Thank you.

Goodluck, have heard about Romeo, am aware he likes to get himself in hot water for attention, but i'm sure he can trade.

Took a turtle soup on Gold, EU and cable. Looking for lower prices from Daily OB.

Thank you. Sure does do that I must admit, however he's an amazing trader. Thanks for the reply

I am currently short cable, Gold and Euro with a HTF stop loss. Notice how AFTER reacting with a key HTF level we form a bearish Order block. Full close below. Notice how we opened this daily candle, ran up into the wick-body of the previous up-close candle (the sensitive point of the OB) and then we start making lower prices. Studying this will change the game for you, but you cannot take any of this with just a down close candle. It has to react with a HTF level first. Happened on Gold, Euro and Dollar Index. Best on DXY. Study this. Trust me.

Hi Robbie.

You make some very salient points in your post. It's nice to find another trader who found value in ICTs work. I will be following your posts with interest.

Thank you brother.

BTW, i dont trade ICT style just wanted to share what i have on it for those who do

Looking for higher Dollar prices this week, which would mean weaker foreign. Bullish PD Arrays support this. However I am going to keep my eye on how we react. I believe the monthly draw on liquidity is the monthly FVG, however if we break down on the daily we could drop down into the equal lows just short of the weekly FVG. Always ready to change bias with HTF kept inn mind.

Euro's inability to close above the 50% of the weekly FVG recently printed shows signs of bearishness. IPDA says we are in a premium. Beeen looking at this Euro MMSM for a while now with 20+40Day lows as targets.

Possibility for Euro this week or just a straight push down. I do not want thee highs at the top to be taken on Euro, cable and Gold and the lows on the Dollar. This would change my bias to neutral. These highs should be protected.

Cable runs up into a Daily FVG and takes out it's previous day's high. We then displace lower rejecting highs and breaking lows forming a bearish OB. Friday's daily candle power of 3 in play. Open-low-high-close. We open up and run into the wick-body of the OB, which we know to be the most sensitive parts of them. We then start making lower prices. Therefore the highs at the daily FVG SHOULD be protected and if they are ran out this is a change in the state of price delivery and price could be turning bullish.

Overall, we expect lower prices on the likes of EU and cable, but always be ready to flip bias. I may post more analysis later on. If I dont, have as nice weekend guys.

My DXY post 25th July highlights a possible sweep so a similar view.
I too am looking for a stronger dollar.

Good to see we are on the same page. Defo bullish long term, but we shall see how we drive on from here. A run on the equal lows just short of the weekly FVG is not a bad shout. We just have to be dynamic with our bias.

USD/CAD.
Notice the clear defined range we have been chopping around in. Turtle soup ranging market model. Target the opposing side of the range or 50% of the range or the price leg, which purged the range low. We then go onto a 3Month chart and see a FVG. A clear defined range break out into an even higher timeframe level. Interesting. This combined with IPDA data ranges, PD Arrays, OTE on the monthly time frame and other confluences, which I will not go into here but possibly later on. Notice how the monthly keeps trying to dig further into the FVG, but it cannot help but close above it and stay inside it's range. Previous month low taken and we rally. This is not random. Your entry could be at the 3 month FVG or even now with a high time frame stop, or for my day traders you can use high time frame analysis and levels to give us low time frame swing points. I'll dive into it on the next post.

You could've taken a long off of the OB for a run on the previous day's high. Let's dive deeper into price.

We know rejection blocks (candles with long wicks basically like this one) can be used as turtle soups, as 'retail' are taught to place their stops at the bodies of these long wick candles. We are all retail, I don't believe in calling trendline traders retail, but it's just easiest to explain. Anyways, we stop hunt the rejection block (internal range liquidity and so now we expect a run on external range liquidity. So now using the monthly and 3 month time frame, we have developed a clear bullish Bias and a level we expect to be ran out. 1HR chart of all the possible long positions you could've taken, that's without even consulting even lower time frames for my scalpers. ALSO study the time these turtle soups are happening as that is CRUCIAL. Without time there is no price. ICT Killzones are good, but true opens are the golden nugget. Turtle soup with true opens will change the game for you.

THIS is a true breakout of a level. Long story short we have established a high time frame bias and we expect a certain level to be run out. We take that high in this case. Suckering everyone in their mother to think it's a false breakout, but where does price pull back to. A discount (50% and below of the current price swing leg.) 50% is always a great level to look for turtle soups. And while we do this we fill in a 4HR FVG TO THE TICK and tag a 1HR bullish order block and push higher for a REAL breakout of the level. This was USDCAD marked up. Bias remains heavy bullish for long term. I didn't even mean to go so deep into this, but I want to help you guys become one with the market. Everything in the market happens for a reason. Please if you found this interesting and useful. Study this and share this to people in need. These turtle soups are better then everything you have to pay for on these guru courses. And I have given you these nuggets for free. But like I said at the start of this thread. All my knowledge goes down to mainly ICT and Romeotpt. And also fxfinesse and Traderdaye. These are the guys you should really study. I am just a student. But please, study this, as this is all you will ever need in the market.
