ICT Forex - Trading the Key Swing Points

• Engineering the daily range – Asian open
o general rule of thumb is Asia is consolidation the London creates high or low of day & New
York is the expansion
o But in some cases, the Asian open will create the daily high or low

o In this example, low is formed in Asian open & high is formed in London session

o Or Asian session can consolidate ahead of London open

o In this example, Asian session got consolidated & when it's bullish we create the low of the
day and then it expands throughout the rest of the day

• Engineering the daily range – New York open

o New York open can also create the high or low of the day
o In this example, We can see daily high at the newyork open

o here we see the low formed in London creates an impulse swing & trades back down into
the New York open creates a nice retracement and then rallies creating the high the day
later on during a New York and overlap of London close

o when London created the low of the day or Asia has created a load of the day then London
closed tends to be the opposite end of the range

o or it can be a reversal point from a longer-term perspective

consolidates & begins move lower
