I might get cancelled for saying this, but...
Watching more YouTube videos, hopping between ICT models, and spending more hours on charts is not what's going to make you a consistent trader.
I learned this the hard way.
I was a pharmacist working 12-hour shifts in a box room without windows. Young family to provide for. Tens of thousands in debt from a degree that barely covered the bills.
Then the oxycontin scandal hit. Was I really helping people with the medication? The more I delved into it, the more I realised I was just part of a wider business. The business of keeping people sick.
That's when I decided enough was enough. I tried every business under the sun. Dozens of failed ventures and scar tissue. Eventually I stumbled onto trading. Unfortunately, it turned out to be the hardest venture of all.
Even working as hard as I could, there was always less and less clarity in my trading.
I spent 5 years getting my pharmacy degree. If I gave trading at least that much time and energy, there was no ceiling in my earning potential. So in autumn 2016, I started.
I was doing everything I was told to do:
- Studied every ICT concept I could find;
- Watched thousands of hours of mentorship content;
- Joined the private ICT mentorship;
- Took the ICT Charter Course;
- Blew account after account trying to apply it all.
After almost 4 years of grinding, the stress of losing money I didn't have, the strain on my marriage, the lost time with my children, these were the results: dozens of blown accounts, thousands spent on courses, and a 5% margin on the best month I ever had.
All of that hard work for nothing?
Of course it wasn't horrible. I was learning. But the concepts were real. ICT's teachings work. They were just overwhelming and poorly organised. Thousands of hours of content, filled with rants, delivered out of order. Most traders don't have the time to absorb all of it.
The problem was never the concepts. The problem was that nobody had organised them into a framework.
So I did it myself. I spent years decoding, restructuring, and distilling everything into a framework that actually made sense. I called it Dealing Range Theory.
I taught it privately for years. Many of the top influencers and students in the ICT community came through my teachings before I went public in 2024.
In 2024, I hosted a free 8-week mentorship on YouTube predicting where the markets would go before the fact, for 8 consecutive weeks with high accuracy. All public. All verifiable.
Now, I've been trading algorithmically for almost a decade. I quit pharmacy. I built a framework that thousands of traders around the world use to find clarity and consistency in their trading.
And if the information overload keeps increasing (as it usually does), you're going to keep drowning in concepts that don't connect. Right?
This challenge is my way of giving you the structural filter I wish someone had given me when I started. The one that would have saved me years of confusion and thousands in blown accounts.
