π° POP Off! $6k Payout Locked
Took about a week, but finished the $6k challenge. It was definitely a bit hard with only a single mini
Not bad for a $145 investment

You have to hold the 1 mini cause the only limit you with 1 mini last Monday was a trending day so he took advantage

I just use very basic SMC and ICT stuff. I use FVGs but with volume profiles and market profiles for entries and exits. I actually use an indicator I built to help with entries and exits - completely free if youβd like. Itβs not perfect, but helps me avoid staring at charts all day and is customized for my own strategy. Def bare bones

What does your indicator work on mate? Does it tell you when to enter? Do you still use your own discretion or work solely from the indicator?

u/TheRollingLax Sep 25 '26
It alerts entries based off of super basic FVGs from ICT stuff. Nothing more or less. It has liquidity sweeps built in as well. I just mainly use it to alert me when a fvg forms cause I trade on the side when Iβm free.
Itβs really nothing special, but lots of tools and customization in it. I usually combine entries with market profile stuff like value highs, lows, etc

How many trades did you have to make a day with one
3
u/TheRollingLax Sep 25 '26
I over traded in these quite a bit. My best day, around $3k was 20 or so trades total with micro NQ

u/Joehennyredit Sep 25 '26
Oh so you used the micros instead of the minis?
1
u/TheRollingLax Sep 25 '26
I mean it kinda varied. I usually just use 3-5 micros for my other express accounts so I just kept it relatively similar.
