Here’s a structured sample of **FrankaTech ICT Online Trading Operations**, incorporating key principles from ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology along with practical execution steps. This example focuses on **forex/day trading** but can be adapted to other markets.
### **FrankaTech ICT Trading Operations Sample**
*(Daily Forex Focus – London/New York Sessions)*
#### **1. Pre-Market Analysis (1–2 Hours Before Session Open)**
**Tools Used**: TradingView, Economic Calendar, ICT Concepts.
- **Economic Calendar Check**:
- High-impact news events (e.g., FOMC, NFP, CPI).
- Avoid trading 15 mins before/after major news.
- **Weekly/Daily Bias**:
- Identify **ICT Kill Zones** (London Open, NY Session).
- Determine if the market is in **accumulation/distribution**.
- **Key Levels**:
- Previous day high/low (PDH/PDL).
- Fibonacci levels (ICT uses 0.618, 0.786 retracements).
- Order Blocks (OB) & Fair Value Gaps (FVG).
#### **2. Trade Setup (ICT-Based Strategy)**
**Strategy**: **"Silver Bullet" (ICT Liquidity Hunt + FVG Reversal)**
- **Step 1: Liquidity Sweep**
- Look for stops above/below key levels (liquidity grab).
- Example: Price sweeps previous week’s high, then reverses.
- **Step 2: FVG Entry**
- Enter on a **4H/1H Fair Value Gap** after liquidity sweep.
- Stop-loss below the FVG (or recent swing low).
- **Step 3: Target**
- TP at next liquidity pool (previous swing high/low).
- Use **1:2 or 1:3 risk-reward**.
**Example Trade (EUR/USD)**:
- **Setup**:
- London session sweeps Monday’s high (liquidity grab).
- Price retraces into a 1H FVG near 0.618 Fib.
- **Execution**:
- Buy limit order at FVG ($1.0850).
- SL below FVG ($1.0830).
- TP at next resistance ($1.0900).
#### **3. Risk Management**
- **Position Size**: 1% risk per trade ($1,000 account → $10 risk).
- **Stop-Loss**: 20 pips → 0.5 lots ($10 / 20 pips).
- **No Overtrading**: Max 3 trades/day.
#### **4. Trade Journal (ICT Focus)**
| Date | Pair | Setup (ICT Concept) | Entry | SL | TP | P/L | Notes |
|-------|--------|---------------------|-------|-----|-----|------|--------------------|
| 5/30 | EURUSD | FVG + Liquidity Sweep | 1.0850 | 1.0830 | 1.0900 | +50 pips | London session reversal |
#### **5. Post-Session Review**
- **Win Rate**: Track ICT setups (e.g., FVG hits 70% win rate?).
- **Mistakes**: Did you ignore a liquidity sweep? Trade during news?
- **Adjustments**: Refine order blocks, avoid choppy sessions.
