DXY

The hardest part about trading ICT concepts is you have to put to one side all that you know.
Selling while price is rising is an alien concept. You just have to trust the process.

FVG overlapping a breaker block.

2 short positions @ 105.10

Re-tests of ICT order blocks.
With the occasional breaker/mitigation block and FVG thrown in for good measure.
Those that overlap command the most attention.
Higher TF down to the TF I execute trades on.
In my case that's weekly, daily and 4hr.
Generally done with limit and stop orders as opposed to market price.
That way I'm not glued to the screen.
Stops are set the same time. Risk is clearly defined by the OB. If it fails I lose and I'm out.

Awesome. Did you gain the knowledge by watching ICT videos?

{quote} Awesome. Did you gain the knowledge by watching ICT videos?
2016/17 ICT Private Mentorship Core Content.
Over 100 videos.
Information overload for my little brain.
Had to go through it all over and over until I found enough pieces that resonated with how I wanted to trade.
Every trader is different. Has different goals. Trades different time frames. Different risk tolerance.
Over time I've realised I only needed a few concepts to be consistently profitable.
Some of it is way beyond my comprehension. Still is, even now.
I'm no expert on ICT concepts. Still have losses. Still read it wrong at times.
But I'm far more profitable now than I ever was trading retail methodology.
Always going back through the videos. Never stop learning this stuff.

NAS100

Looking at this for a possible short entry.
Buy side delivery on the FVG going up, and sell side delivery on the 2nd FVG going down.
This area is a balanced price range and should act as resistance on a return there.

DXY update.

Clean bounce from weekly bullish OB.
Potential bearish OB above combined with daily.
Does the market have enough strength to make new highs or is an intermediate top in place already?
Future time and price will tell. No rush.
