From the same chapter
- Venom ModelA 2025 ICT model: the 08:00–09:30 ET box is swept at the open and price reverses. Same skeleton as the MCI core with a different range.
- Silver BulletAn hourly model: within 10:00–11:00 ET the algorithm leaves an FVG that gets rebalanced. There is an afternoon version.
- Judas SwingThe session's first push runs opposite to the real move, to load liquidity on the wrong side.
- Turtle SoupFading a false break: price takes out an obvious extreme, fails to get acceptance and comes back inside. You enter on the reclaim. Not ICT's: Raschke and Connors created it (Street Smarts, 1996); ICT reframes it as sweeping a swing point on any timeframe.
- 2022 ModelThe four-step skeleton: raid → displacement with FVG → entry on the retracement → delivery to the opposite pool.
- Power of ThreeAccumulation → Manipulation → Distribution. The shape of every session, fractal at every scale.
- UnicornA breaker and an FVG overlapping at the same price: two independent reasons to react there.
- OTEA 62–79% retracement of an impulse. A CONTINUATION model: it demands the trend on your side.
