When I started trading ICT... I would mark a Daily FVG, and drop to the 1-minute to find an entry. I would always get stopped out, then price would run to my TP eventually. The problem was I didn't understand Timeframe Alignment. You can't go from the Daily to the 1-minute.

Stop aiming for precise entries and precise exits There is no perfect model, there is no perfect strategy, and there is no perfect pd array. Learn to embrace losses because even the best traders will encounter losing streaks.

How to master ICT: • Learn the basics (liquidity, market structure, imbalances) • Add on a few confluences (SMT, CISD or anything else) • Make a simple trading plan & stick to it.

SMT is underrated Add it to your entry checklist and pair it with CISD. Watch your winrate increase instantly.
