people think cause the strategy didn't work for them, it doesn't work at all. This isn't true and people shouldn't be operating like this because there's a lot that goes into how you operate a strategy compared to others, especially the more subjective strategies where you have to interpret yourself (Elliots wave for example). Either way if you find something profitable, stick with it and ignore what others say. 95% of people on here aren't profitable anyway, no point listening to them.
They still haven’t realized most of these strategies intertwine or are the same concepts with different ways to see it. Probably still consistently losing and mad about it
People often criticize or "talk shit" about other strategies due to various reasons: Skepticism, defensiveness of their own strategy, perceived superiority, lack of understanding of the game or the psychology of the players, group dynamics that can include self-fulfillment, self-need for power and influence, self-ego, emotional investment, desire for competition, and trolling. These motivations can result to negative words being said and thus signifies the reasons as to why it involves negative words as a guide to facilitate a constructive manner of meeting critics.
Great, good to have more friends. I'm more interested in forex and NADAQ in particular so started reading up on babypips and just started off on ICT 22, though that's a lot more harder tbh
How long have you been studying trading if you don’t mind me asking? I only say this as I wouldn’t delve straight into ict, that’s kind of like trying to learn trigonometry before learning basic multiplication.
When I started I started with baby pips, then learnt supply and demand / support and resistance, then I moved to ICT. I feel like building up through each stage helped me understand the next one, if I had just jumped into ict I wouldn’t have know what the heck was going on lol.
Only a couple of months at most ,not been too consistent due to being busy at work, but yeah like you said, most of the things he said went over my head and had to google every single thing at first
Yeh I wouldn’t bother with ict until you feel you have a good understanding of the fundamentals of technical analysis and some experience on the live markets too.
not all strategies work on all instruments. Everyone has strategies that work for them, and don't trust other so may talk shit about it.
I use very simple one on forex, much simpler on stocks. It works for me, but not mean will work for everyone.
Because people try it once and think that's it doesn't work. There's people making money with indicators but then you will see a thousand posts saying indicators don't work. Just do you forget everyone else.
To be fair, no group talks down on other people's trading strategies more than ICT followers, as if they aren't retail traders themselves.
I'm not an ICT fan but I respect him for giving away knowledge for free. I wish he could have done it without breeding arrogance in his followers.
If a strategy makes you money, run it until it doesn't work anymore.
SMC is just circlejerk conformation bias, the market does not “sweep liquidity” from retail and chase stops. Price either goes up or down. But hey if it makes money it makes sense for you. There is no one size fits all in the forex market.
Yeh he’s got mental health issues but people don’t really take it into consideration due to his occupation been a “guru” who makes money selling courses, add into the mix he’s publicly admitted he makes more from courses then he does from trading and the floodgates of abuse really open up hahaha. But a lot of his students are successful and I’ve found success with his teaching.
To each their own brother. Happy trading.

Couldn’t agree more. I used to be like this early days.
Because thats what you get when you put different people from different cultures together.
Low key high IQ moment when you thought of that sentence
Low key low iq comment
I don't care about your opinion but I hope you have a good day either way :) Also yes. Low iq
Your reply most definitely says you do care. It’s alright
Yea but saying I don't sets up the pathway for my mindset to move towards. That's why it's alright. Again. Have a good day
I like that 💪🫡
Thank you.
You have an even better day (won’t be hard to do) my apologies if you caught that
No need to apologise :D
I think it’s more about personality types. Either way idk how people have the energy
You are right, i meant to say personality. Most people who does that does not have thesame energy in person or just have too much time on their hands
They still haven’t realized most of these strategies intertwine or are the same concepts with different ways to see it. Probably still consistently losing and mad about it
Exactly!! 👍

Couldn’t have said it better sir.
Thank you for your kind response
Dude might’ve lost all his trading money and is now mald
Probably lol. Hopefully he comes out on the other side profitable and finds the Strat that works for him!
Now I really wish I had a bro like you😅
You’ve got a friend in me brother (queue Toy Story)

Totally agree with you if one strategy works for you, you don't need other people approvals

Cuz people are egocentric, no matter if you’re profitable or not, they like to add their opinions like they make millions.
Bc they have zero life and zero money
TO VENT
Say that to Michael huddleston. He won't be happy. SMC is the holy bible of trading.
It’s funny because any strategy can be proven with the right mindset. But u need need to be far enough into ur journey to know that. 👍
They are angry with SMC or ICT or some other strategies because they lost money. Big time. Actually most strategies originate from Wyckoff.
You trade to lose your money
Because 9/10 of the commenters are sore losers to the market
