00:00:06
well welcome back books all right so
00:00:09
we're going to be talking about my ICT
00:00:11
Silver Bullet trade setup which is a
00:00:13
time-based algorithmic trading model for
00:00:16
all asset
00:00:22
classes all right before I get into it
00:00:25
uh let's discuss ticks points and Pips
00:00:29
and the relationship to Forex to
00:00:33
futures for an
00:00:36
ICT Silver Bullet trade and the minimum
00:00:40
trade framework should be 10 points or
00:00:44
40 ticks for index futures or
00:00:48
indices the minimum trade framework
00:00:51
should be 15 Pips for Forex payers for
00:00:55
Forex
00:00:56
Traders now an amplification of that is
00:01:00
this framework is the best case price
00:01:03
delivery that you expect to see not
00:01:05
underscore not your actual trade entry
00:01:08
to exit range so in other words if
00:01:13
everything were to be perfect and you're
00:01:15
not trying to be perfect with your entry
00:01:17
you're not trying to be perfect with
00:01:18
your
00:01:19
exit if the entirety of the move that
00:01:22
you foresee is likely to unfold next in
00:01:25
whatever asset class you're
00:01:27
trading that range
00:01:30
is the
00:01:31
framework but you're going to be looking
00:01:33
for a trade within that framework that
00:01:36
doesn't demand you to have the highest
00:01:38
degree of Entry Precision or exit
00:01:40
Precision over time you'll get better
00:01:42
with both of those entry and exit but
00:01:45
now using a model you want to have
00:01:47
something that's a little bit more
00:01:48
forgiving so for index Futures if you're
00:01:52
trading indices the minimum framework is
00:01:55
it has to at least offer the potential
00:01:58
for 10 points or 10 handles which is
00:02:01
equivalent to 4 tick the same would be
00:02:04
said for Forex the framework should be a
00:02:07
minimum of 15 Pips for the pair you're
00:02:11
trying to trade so if you can't work out
00:02:13
a range
00:02:14
move at least 15 Pips the trade is
00:02:18
probably not high probability it would
00:02:20
be better suited to be left alone and
00:02:22
let it pass or look look
00:02:24
elsewhere 10 handles for
00:02:27
indices is the same to me as 20 Pips in
00:02:30
Forex five handles for indices is the
00:02:33
same to me as 10 Pips in Forex so many
00:02:36
times with my tweets or comments in my
00:02:39
videos and whatnot uh folks that reach
00:02:42
out to me through trading view
00:02:44
little messaging system they have there
00:02:47
um I ignore majority of everyone that
00:02:49
sends me messages trading I just get too
00:02:51
many of them
00:02:53
and the question keeps popping up
00:02:55
recently
00:02:57
is if I'm teaching predominantly
00:02:59
presently at the time in 2023 in the
00:03:02
YouTube mentorship which is Free by the
00:03:05
way the question is if I'm looking for
00:03:08
five handles of price movement in the E
00:03:11
mini S&P what would that translate for
00:03:14
those that are trading forx U that would
00:03:17
be the equivalent of 10
00:03:20
Pips if I'm looking for 10 Handles in
00:03:24
indices or trading stock index features
00:03:27
uh if you're a Forex Trader you would be
00:03:28
looking for the equiv of 20 Pips in your
00:03:31
Forex pair so that way there's the the
00:03:34
relationship between the two these are
00:03:36
essential Frameworks to what I
00:03:39
deem high probability ICT silverbolt
00:03:42
trade
00:03:47
setups all right so let's talk about
00:03:49
this is really the gem of this
00:03:52
presentation really uh types of ICT
00:03:55
Silver Bullet setups now the framework
00:03:58
for many ICT Silver Bullet setups are as
00:04:00
follows but they're not limited
00:04:02
to previous day high or low draw on
00:04:06
liquidity
00:04:08
meaning yesterday's high if we're
00:04:10
bullish there's going to be buy stops or
00:04:12
buy side liquidity resting above that we
00:04:14
would be looking for a run to previous
00:04:16
day's high that expansion is the draw in
00:04:19
liquidity for buy side uh vice versa if
00:04:22
we are bearish we're expecting lower
00:04:25
prices throughout the week and we see
00:04:28
the previous days low as having sells
00:04:32
side liquidity or self stops below it so
00:04:35
we would look for potential setups that
00:04:36
would expand down into that
00:04:39
liquidity previous session highs and
00:04:42
lows as draws on liquidity meaning that
00:04:46
let's say you're sitting down in front
00:04:47
of the charts and it's the am session in
00:04:50
New York you would look at the high end
00:04:52
or low of the London session that just
00:04:54
passed and looked to a run on liquidity
00:04:58
or retest of those old lows or
00:05:01
highs previous weekly high or low as a
00:05:05
draw in liquidity if we're bullish we
00:05:06
would look for a run above the previous
00:05:08
week's high or if we bearish we would
00:05:11
look for a run below the previous week's
00:05:13
low another would be returning to a
00:05:17
current or old new week opening Gap so
00:05:21
that would be treated as a draw on
00:05:23
liquidity or an expansion away from the
00:05:26
current or old new week opening Gap
00:05:31
and a classic ICT optimal trade entry
00:05:34
which has been for the longest time
00:05:36
while doing this YouTube channel that's
00:05:38
always been the classic Flagship pattern
00:05:40
but now we've seen many more models and
00:05:43
approaches so it can't be referred to as
00:05:46
the flagship pattern anymore I think the
00:05:49
fair value Gap has uh taken the throne
00:05:51
there Confluence of the 2022 ICT
00:05:55
mentorship YouTube model which I taught
00:05:57
for free on this YouTube channel uh me
00:05:59
meaning that your draw on liquidity
00:06:01
could be a inefficiency above the
00:06:03
marketplace when we're bullish or a
00:06:05
inefficiency below the price when we're
00:06:08
bearish which means that if we're
00:06:09
bearish we could be aiming for a
00:06:12
discount buy c b sell sign efficiency or
00:06:14
some measure of fair value Gap that
00:06:16
would be below current price action that
00:06:18
would be your draw when bearish or if
00:06:20
you're bullish you would be looking for
00:06:22
a inefficiency above current price
00:06:24
action which would be many times in the
00:06:26
form of a civvy or sell side imbalance
00:06:28
buy s def efficiency or variant of fair
00:06:31
value Gap above current price action so
00:06:33
you can treat that or as I mentioned all
00:06:35
the previous ones above number seven
00:06:38
here all of them being equally available
00:06:41
in terms of probability if it is in the
00:06:44
Market at the time not all of these are
00:06:46
going to be a factor you there will be
00:06:49
times where the previous week's High has
00:06:52
already been
00:06:53
rated that morning and looking at it
00:06:57
again may not be the ideal scenario so
00:06:59
it might require you to look at a higher
00:07:01
time frame liquidity pool or
00:07:04
inefficiency above price if you know if
00:07:06
you're if you're bullish so I could list
00:07:09
a myriad of different scenarios but I
00:07:11
think this list is good enough to give
00:07:15
the students of my YouTube channel a
00:07:17
great deal
00:07:20
of latitude so that way you can look at
00:07:23
the potential for any one of these
00:07:25
situations not all of them will
00:07:28
exist on any given day not all of these
00:07:31
will be in the charts but most days one
00:07:34
of these criteria will be in play don't
00:07:37
take my word before I go back through
00:07:38
your price action you'll see what I'm
00:07:40
saying here is in fact
00:07:42
truth obviously the main emphasis is
00:07:45
determining the next most likely draw in
00:07:48
the price action so where is Price
00:07:50
likely to go to next that's the number
00:07:52
one goal for all of my students is to
00:07:54
focus on that skill set first because
00:07:56
all the entries and the exens and such
00:07:59
that is the least important thing
00:08:01
because if you don't know where price is
00:08:02
trying to go to from the time you're
00:08:04
sitting in looking at your charts
00:08:06
whatever anoun this concept you use is
00:08:08
probably going to fail
00:08:13
you all right let's talk about our first
00:08:16
ICT Silver Bullet setup and the time at
00:08:18
which it forms now again this is a Time
00:08:21
based model that means these things are
00:08:26
linked to a specific 60-minute interval
00:08:30
or window in time every single trading
00:08:33
day this pattern will form it may not be
00:08:36
in the Forex Peri that you're trading it
00:08:38
may not be in the Futures Contract that
00:08:41
you're trading it may not be in the
00:08:44
asset that you specifically looking at
00:08:47
but it does form every single
00:08:50
day first setup time is 3:00 a.m. to
00:08:54
4:00 a.m. now we're always referring to
00:08:57
New York local time so whenever ever I'm
00:08:59
referring to a specific time whether it
00:09:01
be a window of time or a very specific
00:09:03
time of the day you have to have your
00:09:06
charts calibrated to New York local time
00:09:09
wherever that is whenever that is in
00:09:11
your area if we're observing daylight
00:09:14
savings time then you observe Daylight
00:09:17
Saving signs that way it removes all the
00:09:18
uncertainty the confusion whatever it is
00:09:20
in New York that local time that's what
00:09:23
you're using when you're
00:09:24
charting this is the London open Silver
00:09:27
Bullet
00:09:31
so what we're looking for is a classic
00:09:34
ICT fair value Gap the form between 3:00
00:09:38
a.m. and 400 a.m. New York local
00:09:41
time
00:09:43
the factor that which you are going to
00:09:47
lean heavily on is the skill set of
00:09:49
knowing where price is going to go to
00:09:52
okay and it's not necessarily the bias
00:09:56
you just predominantly have to consider
00:09:59
where the next draw on liquidity is is
00:10:01
it going to go above the marketplace for
00:10:03
buy stops or trade into inefficiency
00:10:06
above current price action if you're
00:10:07
bullish in this case the market was
00:10:10
bearish it was looking to go lower and
00:10:12
there was an obvious sell-side liquidity
00:10:13
pool resting below that old swing low
00:10:16
and between 3:00 and 4 the market
00:10:19
created a fair value
00:10:21
Gap we had a shift in Market structure
00:10:24
below this low here so this is your
00:10:26
classic what optimal trade
00:10:30
entry fair value Gap here the market
00:10:33
shows the willingness to support this
00:10:35
idea with the bodies staying inside that
00:10:38
Gap see that now at 4:00 a.m. it does
00:10:41
pump one more time just above it but
00:10:44
that's fine it would have never sto you
00:10:46
out with the rules I teach with all of
00:10:48
my models here especially the op trade
00:10:51
entry the idea for this would be to look
00:10:54
for a minimum of what Market is this
00:10:57
it's a Futures Contract set means does
00:10:59
it offer the potential for 10 handles so
00:11:03
from
00:11:04
here down to here trading below this low
00:11:09
not just to the low but to it and
00:11:11
through it so it's it's reasonable to
00:11:14
anticipate a potential run of 10 handles
00:11:18
we don't require that but going short
00:11:20
inside that fair value Gap the formation
00:11:23
of the ICT Silver Bullet the entry is
00:11:27
taken inside of that 60-minute window
00:11:30
between 3:00 a.m. and 4:00 a.m. it does
00:11:33
not mean that the trade is entered and
00:11:35
is
00:11:36
exited in the same 60-minute window in
00:11:39
other words your trade many times will
00:11:41
be held over the 4:00 hour and into 5:00
00:11:45
in the morning and maybe even rolling
00:11:47
over into the New York session opening
00:11:50
at 7 8:00 New York local time but in
00:11:53
this instance we would be aiming for
00:11:55
this low and the cell side liqu resting
00:11:57
below it so does it offer from this
00:11:59
entry here down to here at least five
00:12:02
handles for you to book in
00:12:05
profit it does so the framework was
00:12:09
could it get to 10 it could do 10 we
00:12:11
don't require that shorting into the
00:12:14
fair value Gap covering at the old
00:12:17
low allows for at least five handles and
00:12:22
that's what the IC Silver Bullet is this
00:12:24
is my actual model for my son Cameron
00:12:32
all right the second one in our
00:12:35
continuing list of I Silver Bullet
00:12:38
setups is the am session now this one is
00:12:41
focusing on the 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.
00:12:44
always New York local time and let's
00:12:46
take a closer look at this one
00:12:50
now okay so we are looking at the E mini
00:12:53
S&P once more and the idea is between
00:12:57
10:00 a.m. New York local time and 11:
00:12:59
a.m. we wait for when the Market's
00:13:04
bearish relative equal lows they sell
00:13:06
side resting below that we have a fair
00:13:08
value Gap bearish fair value Gap it
00:13:10
trades up into it between 10:00 and 11
00:13:12
o' we can sell short there does it offer
00:13:15
10 handles well from 4146 or thereabouts
00:13:19
to 4136 that range doesn't even get us
00:13:22
down into this low let alone below that
00:13:24
one so it obviously meets the criteria
00:13:28
of a minimum of 10 Handles in framework
00:13:31
it does not mean you're trying to get 10
00:13:33
handles it just means that it offers 10
00:13:35
handles so going short here collecting
00:13:39
five handles that could have been done
00:13:41
inside of the scope of that 60-minute
00:13:43
window not that you're trying to do that
00:13:45
as I mentioned briefly moments ago the
00:13:47
trade is many times held in duration
00:13:49
longer than the window that the
00:13:52
framework and entry is derived from so
00:13:56
it's not a in and out within the same
00:13:58
hour
00:13:59
it means that you're looking for the
00:14:01
setup to form to get you into the trade
00:14:03
within the scope of 10:00 to 11 o' near
00:14:07
y local
00:14:11
time all right and finally we have our
00:14:14
last ICT Silver Bullet here which is
00:14:16
framed on 2:00 p.m. to 300
00:14:19
p.m. New York local time and this is the
00:14:23
PM session ICT Silver Bullet
00:14:26
setup in this one here we can see that
00:14:29
we traded down into a higher time frame
00:14:31
15minute discount fair value Gap and
00:14:34
you're encouraged to go into your charts
00:14:36
and see that is in fact what we have
00:14:38
here Market trades down into it shifts
00:14:41
higher a swing has been broken to the
00:14:43
upside so we have a shift in Market
00:14:45
structure and a fair value Gap so any
00:14:48
retracements back down into that look at
00:14:50
the bodies staying inside that the Wicks
00:14:52
do the damage but the body's telling you
00:14:54
the narrative the story is told by the
00:14:56
bodies so it's telling you it's
00:14:58
respecting this body balance efficiency
00:15:00
or fair value Gap going into 2:00 we
00:15:04
rallied and we created a small little
00:15:05
fair value Gap there the market drops
00:15:07
down into that before taking out the
00:15:09
relative equal highs buy side liquidity
00:15:11
and or returning back to a premium sell
00:15:14
side and balance buy side and efficiency
00:15:15
or fair value Gap that would be above
00:15:17
the market here and here so if it's
00:15:20
going to Rally here the framework could
00:15:23
be on the optimal trade entry here and
00:15:26
taking the first fair value Gap that
00:15:27
forms inside of and reprices to between
00:15:31
2:00 and 3:00 that's happening right
00:15:34
there so from here all the way up to
00:15:38
here does that offer 10 handles yes it's
00:15:40
actually offering 12 or more so this
00:15:42
entry here is a high probability
00:15:45
condition that lends well to a run into
00:15:48
inefficiency in the
00:15:50
premium and to take bide out as well so
00:15:54
that is a very handsome run there and
00:15:56
trading between 2:00 and 3:00 now some
00:15:59
closing
00:16:01
thoughts if you're new to my channel and
00:16:04
you're seeing this you don't have enough
00:16:07
to trade this pattern so you have to
00:16:09
back test it while you're learning how
00:16:10
to reprice action and determine where
00:16:13
the next draw on liquidity is going to
00:16:14
be for the next price swing for whatever
00:16:18
asset class you're trading so don't be
00:16:21
discouraged if it seems like it's this
00:16:22
Cherry Picked and there it is because I
00:16:24
actually traded many of these types of
00:16:26
setups either with calling it out on
00:16:29
Twitter or mentioning it in passing
00:16:32
while actually doing executions and
00:16:34
recording it so these patterns these
00:16:37
things form and I called a few of them
00:16:40
real time on Twitter last week and many
00:16:42
of you much to my uh disapproval because
00:16:46
I don't like when you take the setups as
00:16:50
a trade setup signal I don't want you to
00:16:52
view it like that but many of the
00:16:54
followers on my Twitter feed actually
00:16:56
showed that they took the trade I called
00:16:58
out with using Silver Bullet so the
00:17:01
pattern works it's highly highly
00:17:03
consistent it's extremely high
00:17:05
probability when you have all these
00:17:06
factors in mind and they are present in
00:17:09
price action it gives you a rule-based
00:17:11
idea to look for a time-based model so
00:17:15
time and price is being utilized here
00:17:17
which is where the focus of my analysis
00:17:20
Concepts and teaching as a mentor
00:17:21
teaching my students how to find
00:17:22
something that repeats you can't get
00:17:24
anything better than having a specific
00:17:26
60-minute window of opportunity that
00:17:29
forms every single trading day every
00:17:31
single trading day one of these setups
00:17:33
are going to form now if you don't have
00:17:37
a plethora of markets to follow ideally
00:17:40
one or two at best while you're first
00:17:42
learning how to do it even if you grow
00:17:44
to a point of Interest where you have a
00:17:45
lot of markets that you're traing a lot
00:17:47
of pairs or a lot of Futures markets and
00:17:49
such uh you'll find that over time the
00:17:52
longer your career will be you'll your
00:17:54
list will will reduce down to one or two
00:17:56
at worst maybe three if you want to be a
00:17:58
deviant
00:17:59
but my advice is for you to be a
00:18:01
specialist try to focus on one market
00:18:03
because if you can do that one of these
00:18:07
specific ICT Silver Bullet setups will
00:18:09
form every single day meaning that if
00:18:12
you just follow One Market just one
00:18:14
market you can get your setups there you
00:18:16
can make your bread and butter you can
00:18:17
make your ends meat you'll have losing
00:18:20
trades okay it's going to happen but by
00:18:22
far and large you can do things with one
00:18:24
market and if you don't get this set up
00:18:26
in London you wait for it in the AM
00:18:28
session if you don't get it there you
00:18:29
wait for it in the PM session but every
00:18:31
single Market every single trading day
00:18:33
will offer one of these so you have to
00:18:36
be disciplined you have to focus and
00:18:38
look for these ideas to form in price
00:18:40
action and should you do that you'll
00:18:43
need to look at nothing further than
00:18:45
this you don't need to go into any other
00:18:47
models you don't need to go into any
00:18:48
other teachings you don't have to come
00:18:50
back to my YouTube channel you'll never
00:18:51
have to do any of that stuff anymore
00:18:53
because you be independently minded and
00:18:56
your analysis will be and Uniquely Yours
00:18:59
you won't have to look at external
00:19:00
sources like me or someone else to
00:19:02
provide that to you you'll trust
00:19:04
yourself which is a very empowering
00:19:05
state of mind and that's always been my
00:19:07
Target and goal with all of my students
00:19:11
so hopefully you found this one
00:19:12
insightful and until I'll talk to you
00:19:13
next time be safe
