  5. 0:11teachings
  6. 0:12but is his system actually profitable
  7. 0:15does he actually have an edge
  8. 0:18to find this out we did a hundred trades
  9. 0:21back test
  10. 0:22on bar replay to see whether or not
  11. 0:25ict's teachings offer an age
  12. 0:28and the results were truly eye opening
  13. 0:32welcome to back test ball our goal is to
  14. 0:35help retail traders get an edge in the
  15. 0:37market
  16. 0:38before we begin
  17. 0:39don't forget to click the like and
  18. 0:42subscribe button for future videos
  19. 0:46ict teaches many styles
  20. 0:50however we went for one style that has
  21. 0:53zero discretion to get a fair
  22. 0:56and more accurate back test that is
  23. 0:58possible and what we think is achievable
  24. 1:00during live trading
  25. 1:03so
  26. 1:04here are the rules we followed the
  27. 1:06system has almost zero discretion
  28. 1:09therefore
  29. 1:10you should be able to easily spot trades
  30. 1:12and instantly know whether or not it is
  31. 1:14a trade you should take or shouldn't
  32. 1:16take
  33. 1:17now
  34. 1:18here are the rules we look for
  35. 1:20firstly 15-minute liquidity to be taken
  36. 1:24which is here's the types trendline
  37. 1:26liquidity
  38. 1:28equal highs and lows and asian session
  39. 1:30highs slash lows
  40. 1:32we only trade during london session and
  41. 1:34we aim for at least
  42. 1:36three rr
  43. 1:38so here you can see we've marked out
  44. 1:40session high
  45. 1:41session load which is two liquidity
  46. 1:43types and also this
  47. 1:45relatively equal high
  48. 1:47that gets taken and forms our
  49. 1:52liquidity grab which is step one now
  50. 1:56we're on the five minute but we saw it
  51. 1:58get taken under 15.
  52. 2:01then we look for market structure shift
  53. 2:03or break of structure on the five minute
  54. 2:05which this indicator here fractal
  55. 2:08breaking balance yeah you can put it on
  56. 2:11your chart these green dotted lines
  57. 2:14signal the breaks of structure
  58. 2:17and then we enter on a three minute or
  59. 2:19two minute or one minute fvg which this
  60. 2:22fvg by the king nephew sam highlights
  61. 2:25your
  62. 2:27fpg's automatically
  63. 2:30um so instead of entering here on the
  64. 2:32five minute we'd look for one under two
  65. 2:34minutes so now i'm going to walk you
  66. 2:37through an example before we take the
  67. 2:40full
  68. 2:40100 trades and then get the results so
  69. 2:45let's get into this live example
  70. 2:48so here you can see liquidity was taken
  71. 2:52now we zoom past
  72. 2:54over there the dotted line was passed we
  73. 2:57use wix because
  74. 2:58price is not candles
  75. 3:01price is a line
  76. 3:04we just view it as candles to make it
  77. 3:07easier to understand
  78. 3:08so this we count as a break
  79. 3:11we drop down to the two minute
  80. 3:13and look for these fvgs to enter off so
  81. 3:17for instance over here
  82. 3:20we place our position stop loss above
  83. 3:23the high
  84. 3:24of the liquidity that was taken
  85. 3:27and we aim for 3
  86. 3:29rr
  87. 3:34right
  88. 3:36and then let's just zoom past this and
  89. 3:38see
  90. 3:39does it hit tp
  91. 3:41and you'll see
  92. 3:42yes it does

  147. 6:07voila
  148. 6:09and here you have the results
  149. 6:12the question
  150. 6:13we asked ourselves at the start of the
  151. 6:15video is is ict's teachings profitable
  152. 6:18and do they offer an edge
  153. 6:20in short
  154. 6:22yes
  155. 6:23this strategy is really high performing
  156. 6:26and
  157. 6:27over 114 trades which is a very good
  158. 6:30sample set the past few weeks that
  159. 6:32shadingview did let me go through on the
  160. 6:35pairs i had mentioned to get the 100
  161. 6:37trades
  162. 6:39this is the result overall we had a
  163. 6:41strike rate of
  164. 6:4351.7 percent
  165. 6:45which is really good considering average
  166. 6:48rr was three at least three r was the
  167. 6:51goal we had 59 ones
  168. 6:5455 losses a total risk reward gain of
  169. 6:57122.7
  170. 6:59the initial balance on baptist bull
  171. 7:02uh is
  172. 7:04one percent a hundred thousand dollars
  173. 7:07the initial risk is one percent
  174. 7:10so
  175. 7:11this 222 000 final balance means that if
  176. 7:15you started with a hundred thousand
  177. 7:16dollars and took a hundred trades you
  178. 7:18could possibly look at two hundred and
  179. 7:20twenty two thousand dollars
  180. 7:23at the end max drawdown was five
  181. 7:25thousand dollars it comes out to be five
  182. 7:28percent
  183. 7:29what back test bull does when you select
  184. 7:31all
  185. 7:32as in you want all the trades from all
  186. 7:34the charts like we did it will put them
  187. 7:36in chronological order and tell you how
  188. 7:39many wins in a row and how many losses
  189. 7:41in a row came across all the pairs in
  190. 7:44this case even though we were trading
  191. 7:46over five pairs we only got
  192. 7:48four maximum consecutive losses in a row
  193. 7:52and five maximum consecutive wins which
  194. 7:55means you can risk
  195. 7:56in the realm of about point seven five
  196. 7:59percent if you would like to do a
  197. 8:01funding challenge profit factor is two
  198. 8:05now when you wanna become a funded
  199. 8:07trader in general you should look for
  200. 8:09strategies that profit factor is to or
  201. 8:12above
  202. 8:13that's a sufficient edge however this is
  203. 8:16not
  204. 8:17financial advice in conclusion
  205. 8:21this strategy
  206. 8:22is really high performing
  207. 8:24although do your own research and go and
  208. 8:26check if it works for yourself this is
  209. 8:28definitely market
  210. 8:30beating
