ICT Concepts | Backtesting the 5m Unicorn Model | Day 3: +$1310 PROFIT

Backtesting ICT unicorn on the 5m timeframe. The idea of this video trading journal is to analyze the NQ futures 5m chart during the NY am session every single trading day and document winning trades & losing trades alike.

THE RULE: Only take 1 trade per day.

This video series will provide a recorded walkthrough of one of ICT's best trading strategies: the ICT unicorn. I will be looking at it's historical performance specifically trading the 5m timeframe.

Once the entry is taken, the chart will be switched to the 1m timeframe to analyze shorter time frame price action.

I've found that ICT's unicorn model is by far one of the easiest trading strategies for beginners to learn.

I hope this recorded trading journal will be helpful for those who are pursuing day trading or who have an interest in learning easy day trading strategies.

We're keeping it as easy as possible.
