// STRATEGY.LIB

The full playbook.

Seven strategies I actively trade. Each one is mechanical, backtested, and journaled. Use them as a starting point — never as a guarantee. Risk parameters are mine; adapt to your account.

H1 / H4 / D1

SNR — Support & Resistance

0.5% – 1% per tradeRR 1:2 minimum

My core strategy. Map clean horizontal support and resistance levels on higher timeframes, then trade rejections or breakouts with confirmation. Pure price action — no indicators required.

// RULES

01Mark the strongest S/R zones on D1 and H4 (min. 2 touches).
02Wait for price to reach a level — do NOT chase mid-range.
03Confirm with a rejection candle (pin bar / engulfing) on H1 for reversals.
04Or: wait for a clean break + retest of the level for continuation.
05Stop just beyond the zone. TP at the next opposing S/R level.

M5 / M15 / H1

ICT — Inner Circle Trader Model

0.5% – 1% per tradeRR 1:3 minimum

ICT concepts applied to the Kurdistan / London / New York killzones. Trade institutional order flow using liquidity, order blocks, fair value gaps and market structure shifts — entering only in premium/discount arrays aligned with the daily bias.

// RULES

01Define daily bias from weekly draw on liquidity (PWH / PWL).
02Mark Asian range, PDH/PDL and equal highs/lows as liquidity pools.
03Wait for a killzone sweep of liquidity (London 07–10 / NY 12–15 GMT).
04Confirm with M5/M15 MSS (market structure shift) + displacement candle.
05Enter on retrace into the order block or FVG that caused the MSS.
06Stop above/below the sweep wick. Partial at 2R, runner to opposing liquidity.

M15 / H1

Asian Range Breakout

0.5% per tradeRR 1:2 minimum

Mark the high and low of the Kurdistan range (00:00–07:00 GMT). Wait for the London open to sweep one side, then enter on the displacement back into range.

// RULES

01Identify Asian range on M15 between 00:00–07:00 GMT.
02After 07:00, wait for liquidity sweep above/below the range.
03Enter on M5 break of structure back into the range.
04Stop above/below the swept liquidity. TP at opposite range extreme.

M5 / M15

Liquidity Sweep Reversal

0.75% per tradeRR 1:3 average

Hunt obvious equal highs/lows on H1 and H4. When price sweeps them with a wick and reverses, ride the reaction back to the next pool of liquidity.

// RULES

01Mark equal highs/lows + previous day high/low on H1.
02Wait for sweep + bearish/bullish FVG on M5.
03Enter at 50% of the FVG with stop above sweep wick.
04Target the next opposing liquidity pool.

M15

London Open Continuation

0.5% per tradeRR 1:2

Use H4 bias to define direction, then trade the first M15 pullback into a fair value gap during the first hour of London.

// RULES

01Establish daily bias from H4 market structure.
02Wait for London open impulse leg (07:00–08:00 GMT).
03Enter on M15 pullback into FVG aligned with bias.
04Trail stop behind each new M15 swing.

News Fade Setup

0.25% per tradeRR 1:1.5

Counter-trend scalp into the first impulsive spike following high-impact red news, only when price taps a higher-timeframe level.

// RULES

01Pre-mark H1/H4 supply/demand before news.
02Skip if no level lines up. Patience > activity.
03Enter on M1 wick rejection at the level.
04Hard stop. No moving stops on this one.

Smart Money Trend

1% per tradeRR 1:4 runner

Swing model. Combine HTF bias, premium/discount arrays, and a confirmed change of character on H1 for slow, high-conviction entries.

// RULES

01Daily bias from weekly draw on liquidity.
02Enter only in discount (longs) or premium (shorts).
03Confirmation: H1 BOS + retest of order block.

Friday Close Mean Reversion

0.5% per tradeRR 1:1.5

Statistical edge: EUR/USD often retraces to weekly VWAP on Friday afternoon. Fade the extreme into the close.

// RULES

01Plot weekly VWAP from Monday 00:00 GMT.
02After 14:00 Friday, look for 1.5 ATR distance from VWAP.
03Enter limit at extreme; stop = 0.5 ATR.
04Target = VWAP. Exit by Friday 20:00 GMT.
