    ICT Weekly Profiles are recurring patterns describing how Forex markets typically form their weekly high and weekly low between Monday and Friday.

    The ICT London open strategy, developed through the teachings of Michael J. Huddleston, known as the Inner Circle Trader, represents a departure from indicator-based trading towards understanding how institutional order flow actually moves markets.

  • ICT Swing Failure Pattern (SFP): How to Trade Failed Highs and Lows in Forex

    Consequent Encroachment (CE) is one of the most useful and most misused ideas in ICT-style trading. Many traders mark the midpoint of a Fair Value Gap (FVG) and assume the price must react there.

  • Draw on Liquidity in ICT: Key Insights for Traders

    8 May 2026 , Abe Cofnas

    In ICT terms, a draw on liquidity is the idea that price usually has a “common-sense” destination. Markets often travel toward places where orders stack up, equal highs, equal lows, prior day high/low, and other obvious swing points.
