Jesse Rogers breaks down seven ICT trading concepts: fair value gaps, inverse fair value gaps, order blocks, liquidity, liquidity sweeps, market structure, and structure breaks. He frames these as essential to trading ICT profitably.
Here are the seven most important ICT concepts in less than a minute 1. A fair value gap when the market moves with force and a candle leaves a gap between the one before it and the one after it. These levels act as support and resistance. 2. Inverse fair value gaps when a candle trades into the gap and closes through it. This shows that the market is reversing. Three order blocks. An up close candle before a down move is a bearish order block and a down close candle before an up move is a bullish order block. For liquidity, swing highs and swing lows where lots of traders have their stops piled up. Price price moves to take them out aggressively. 5. A liquidity sweep when the market trades into a higher low but fails to follow through. This shows that the market is reversing. 6. Market structure higher highs and lows is a bullish market. Lower highs and lows is a bearish market. Simple but powerful and number seven A structure break when price breaks through a high or low with force and leaves a fair value gap. This tells us that the market is likely to continue in that direction. Master these seven concepts and you'll understand everything you need to trade ICT profitably. Comment below which ones you use the most.
