Vložit
- čas přidán 16. 07. 2024
- In this first episode of TTalks we are joined by Ash Trades. @_Ash_Trades_ Ash talks about his four year journey to profitable trading and the psychology associated with day trading. In year one he discusses his education, work, how he came across day trading and his experience with trading signal chats. Year two he talks about how he experimented with different trading techniques (EMA, RSI, etc.) and what he learned from that. Year three he discusses how he found his model and documented this model. Year four he talks about trading live accounts, prop firm withdrawals and how he did this using the unicorn model from ICT. At the end of the video he goes step by step over his model which combines ICT Breaker Blocks and ICT Fair Value Gaps.

People need to listen and relisten to this if they are struggling. This is it. Great work TT for delivering this to your community
I appreciate that
Outstanding information! Both regarding the journey to profitability and the Unicorn model specifically. The daily, one hour, 5 minute breakdown was priceless!
During my early days in 2022, I had refined my strategy to breaker model and propulsion block through ICT's core content. After seeing 2 of your videos on it, I found out that an FVG created using displacement was important. Then from Matt, I learned about FVG aligned with the highest up closed candle before the leg down that takes the liquidity in bullish conditions (vice-versa for bearish conditions). This was the real gamechanger along with Timeframe alignment.
ICT is right. This model is a model in itself. Very thankful to both of you and ICT 👍👍
awesome!
Who is matt ? CZcamsr
Can you post the link of videos that you talk above
Matt is Ash, the guy in this video.@@franklinxavier7694
@@franklinxavier7694 i think its Ash trades
This is like a graduation ceremony speech😊.
Thanks TT and AT
This was incredibly helpful! My biggest set back is my emotions. As a person with ADHD I chemically wired for impulsivity. But I'm determined to overcome that struggle. Thank you for sharing your journey so that the rest of us could learn from it. And thank you to TTrades for seeking great content for the community of ICT traders.
The same. Did you find any tip for that?
His suggestion to have a clear cut set of time & price based rules that you look for. Basically remove as much on the spot decision making as you can out of the process. Then execute your model like a computer would execute a line of code: if this then that. My logic is that I am attempting to make more decisions than my brain can handle before exhaustion which leads to bad decisions.@@ExploreFreedomTv
@@ExploreFreedomTv i had the same issue/ADHD. You may have to get a therapist or in some way do some very deep work on yourself to figure out why you are holding yourself back.
I have never commented on any if your interviews but my oh my, Ash is more than just a trader. Kudos to him.
Unicorn entry has been the best for a long time. Today alone on NQ was a thing of beauty
It’s hit and miss with the Unicorn. It’s so obvious and easy to see that I somehow think the algo knows we are all there and fakes us out.
@@jaywhoisit4863feel like that with every model
@@jaywhoisit4863or you just don’t use it right obviously it’s going to fail but some unicorns are more probable then other set ups and some will fail too
@@jaywhoisit4863proper framework & narrative makes it hard to get faked out
They do manipulate you if you see a -unicorn below equal highs or DOL of that time. And you trade that model. It’s gon hit your SL. You gotta have a context then it itself is the algo
One of the best channel to get better understanding to ICT teachings. Thank you bro
It's my pleasure
This is an absolute gem. It hits home to what I experience. Thank you so much for this presentation, its worth more than any other precentors of ICT concepts. Well Done 🙏
Thank you TT. These types of videos are very helpful. Slow explanation on the charts and the identification of the ICT concepts helps to recognize what to look for. I love the guidance from a seasoned trader on the psychology of trading and what it takes to be a consistent profitable trader. Thank you both. Please more videos like this on!!🙏✌
Glad you enjoyed it!
such a simple and GREAt explaination it is ASH. without having all the fancy PD ARRAYS and STDV.
Learnt quite a lot. Thank you Ash Trades. That was very resourceful of you. The video was worth every second of my time. Thank you too TTrades.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for this video. Ash was very generous to share his history and navigation to consistently profitable trading. If I were to critique anything, it seemed drawn out at times, but I listened to everything he had to say. I really appreciated the practical side of the video in the last section - some lights went on as he walked us through both bearish and bullish positions using his model. ICT fits for some people, and I am hungry to define my own model, so this content helps a great deal.
Thanks for sharing!
My trading has improved from the lessons of ICT and TTrades. Awesome lesson thank you Ash Trades and TTrades.
Great to hear!
Thanks Ash! You have an easy voice to listen to! Great info for this model that we have seen over and over and need to believe it! I now believe in this and I’m not far away from passing second stage of a prop firm challenge. However, I realize I am guilty of not trusting the process and have been losing out due to moving my SL. If f I hadn’t have done this I would be through already with three trades.
Glad it was helpful!
Very nice content. Beeing more mechanical will help me a lot. I also note this is actually similar with the order block (the breaker becomes the OB), if you put a standard deviation on it with 2 to 2.5 TP, the stop below the breaker is a good location. Will backtest it! Breakers happen on many timeframes and scales, it's one of my latest discoveries to make good /better use of them in the ICT models. So this comes handy. Thank you TT and Ash!
guys! thank you so much for spending youre time for that ❤️
Excellent interview - thank you so much TT & Ash !!!!
Thanks for listening
Epic conversation you two! Chocked FULL of Alpha. So many people miss the forest for the trees in trading. This conversation illustrates it perfectly.
great video... solidified what i know i need to work on... eliminating emotions in favor of becoming mechanical in my risk management according to my high probability model..
I Love this sharing and testimonial mode. Godspeed to all!
Very informative as others already alluded to. It helps to see our model is validated by pros. Cheers.
this is a very very important video, from start to finish, thank you TTrades and Ash Trades. And yes please more of the same. We all appreciate it greatly
You got it!
Fascinating listening to Matt talking about the advertisements that draw new traders in and CZcams dump in a Greg Secker crap ad! That sums up the difference between people like Matt and scam artists like Secker. No comparison. Superb from Matt.
Hi great Video, really like the explanation of the unicorn model and psychology behind it. What seemed to be very truthfull rarely seen in trading. Im really impressed with both channels TTrades & Ash Trades. Well done guys.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Simply perfection. Thanks to both of you. Congrats for your achievements and admiration for your generosity.
Our pleasure!
Great interview! My take away is to be mechanical with my set ups and allow the trade to play out, whether hitting SL or TP.
Great stuff from both of my favorite mentors! Thanks for teaming up in a single video. It would be great seeing more of these.
More to come!
Iam so lucky to part of this community 😍
Awesome video thanks for inviting him along He's a great teacher. Was very refreshing to hear this since my situation was very similar as in working full time and then trying to have extra cash to trade. excellent mindset! psychology at its best
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very interesting, glad to see others of this type
This was super fantastic! I love it! I will download it, and this will be my motivation sound
This was amazing!! Great interview and insights from Ash. As always, TT, your content is always top notch and right on time. Trust the model. Mechanical is the way.
Our pleasure!
This is top notch. Thank you.
This was demystifying! Thank you a million times
I benefitted from the detailed psychological journey. It touched on issues I've experienced. The Unicorn model was very straightforward. I really appreciate the clarity. And yes - I like this approach of sharing the mic with a trader who's paid the price to achieve consistency. Pay-it-forward generosity is a positive character trait for us all to model. Thank you.
glad to help
Perfect, thank you both. Keep on going also with this kind of format. ❤
More to come!
This has really been so insightful & Educative, thanks both TT & AT... I've learnt alot from both of ue
Great to hear!
Really enjoyed it. Ash speaks slow, clear and to the point, so really enjoyed it.
glad you enjoyed it!
2 of my Favorites 🤗
Thanks for the gems you two.
Our pleasure!
thank you >>>I love the content I really enjoy it... learning and understanding a lot>>> I would love to see more quick daily market review ( to see if I see what you see)>>>Once again thank you.👏
This was excellent! I appreciated the shared experience and mindset check.
I love the idea setting your take profit and stop loss targets. The only draw back is that for most prop firm traders, they unfortunately have a trailing drawdown which really destroys the psychology as well. Great job on the video!
Many Propfirms offered static drawdown. Choose that one. Why choose the difficult option?
@@IMR95 he said prop firm traders
Thanks both of you guys !!! really interesting 🤩
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks TTTrade and Ash. That was a masterpiece. Very good advice here

Glad you enjoyed it!
One of the best video on a psychology I have ver seen! Ash was incredible, thank you. I dont really care about unicorn entry, but Im interested in his way of thinking about psychology and stuff around it. I watched whole stream and I made lots of notes. Also thanks to a TTrades for making this podcast.
Glad you enjoyed it!
4 year grind I feel you. cheers to you.
This is the best podcast about trading I've ever heard ❤
awesome!
Thanks TT/Ash. It was a great VDO. TT, This new format is excellent!!!
Yay, thank you!
You can increase your winnings by taking that great entry and making your exit like a turtle trader. If my entry is in 5 min. The center of donchian at 5 min I trail stop. It is way further back than your original stop so it takes a while in profit well past 2r to move it forward. But if you Take that BB and measure out 4 standard deviations and put your take profit there, then manually trail by the 5min donchian. Days that you expect to move you can go 5 or even 10 r. You will end up a lot of times with runners that run and return back to 2 r or go real far and come back to donchain and knock you out at 5r. But many big runners that make it worth it. If you are as unemotional as you say, when it retraces back, you can add once 1/2 again of your position pyramiding in as long as the position of your stop loss and the new break even from that add doesn’t add to your original risk.
Ict pyramids in aggressively on retracements but does so only on the proper side of premium/discount of the daily range. He then scales out at each target pd array on the other side. Allowing the whole position to run really far even to daily close time and price to retrace deep and be only invalidated by a close on the other side of trailing 5 min donchian or coming back to your 2r line would allow a way for you to increase your profits without increasing your risk. Same with adding pyramiding, when done right in small increments with OTE entries on 50 percent fib or fvg on your already open position, it increases profit without ever putting more at risk than your original risk, (I like to miss the first one and pyramid the second to be able to have my stop lock in my 2r because it also counts 1.5 -2 more going backwards once you pyramid.
Thanks guys for this great video! 👏🏾🍀
You bet!
Thanks Ash!
Listening to your calm voice the unicorn model clicked this time around
super good idea, can’t wait for more
Coming soon!
i love this guy and him model
My self note on the chart is the same: Patience I Discipline I Courage
Thank you 🙏
Fantastic discussion
very well spoken!!
WOW THAT WAS GREAT.
Absolute chad video! ❤ 🔥
When Ash said less is more, that hits differently
Fully enjoyed this video it gives more insight on both the psychological side and the execution 🙏🏿🔥🔥
Glad you enjoyed it!
Ash! I can't help but think that you've had some exposure to Mark Douglas, especially when talking about your model at the end. A lot of it sounds like excellent Trading in the Zone psychology.
I wish i found this at the beginning days of my journey.
Hopeful! Thanks
Great video 🔥🔥🔥
Brooo this is beautiful l don't wanna lie 💯💯
Great discipline and so strong psychology. Thank you for this talk.

Thank you 💚
Any time!
Great interview
You should do more of these!

Thank you Ash and TT.
Any time!
54:51 Impulse had me taking 13 trades yesterday. My trade plan calls for no more than 3 trades in a day.
😂 I feel you. Took 6 today after I have a rule of no more than 2 losses a day 😢
@@raymondayala5355 I fucking lost 6 trade today trash PA
Yesterday was real tough. I just read everything wrong. Took today off the recalibrate my brain and take rest from the market.
I took three trades today 2 loose and one win. All longs. My Bias was long which was correct but my first two entries was before market open. Not going to do that again. I forced the setup and had two losers in a row for $200 each but the saving grace is using Risk management.
😂😂I also did the same took 7trades that were all reverse trading.I had promised myself only to go with the trend but didn't follow that and also not to take more than 3 trades.Lol I thought I was alone in this😂😂
T is the goat 🧡
