Summary:

– Shift to public teaching: ICT (Michael Huddleston) confirmed he stopped paid/private mentorships and moved all core content (lessons 1–12) to YouTube and Twitter so everyone can access it for free. He’ll continue teaching publicly rather than via paid groups.

– 2023 intent: He calls 2023 his “victory lap” — the last year he’ll pour himself into mentoring at a high pace. He will slow down afterward for family and health reasons but will still make content and mentor publicly on YouTube/Twitter (live streams starting Feb 7).

– What he’ll teach: Real-time, top-down market analysis focused on algorithmic smart‑money behavior: fair value gaps, liquidity pools, order-flow signatures, time-of-day macros, and how/when gaps stay open. He promises live, minute-by-minute walkthroughs and repeatable proof of concept.

– Practical, disciplined model: He emphasizes a minimalist, repeatable approach (top-down: weekly → daily → 4H → 60m → 15m → 5m/1m). Aim for realistic targets (e.g., “five-handle” moves in ES) and strong risk management rather than chasing flashy indicators or extreme strike rates.

– Trading routine and timing: Key trading windows are the morning session (~08:30–10:30 ET) and the last hour (approx. 15:40–16:00 ET). If you don’t find a setup in the morning, don’t chase — wait for the afternoon. Extend levels through the day and trade internal-range liquidity on inside days.

– Asset-class guidance: Futures (ES, NASDAQ / ES, bonds) are his preferred, most precise markets. Forex are less precise and prone to broker/server differences — one‑pip/one‑tick stop models are unrealistic in FX with real size.

– Student responsibilities: Success requires chart time, journaling, backtesting, patience, and owning personal weaknesses. He will not hold hands or sell ongoing subscriptions; students must do the work to become independent traders.

– Warnings: Beware of gurus, cherry-picked screenshots, fake backtests and MT4/MT5 manipulation, signal-sellers, and social-media hype. Avoid trading ahead of CPI/FOMC and other violent manual interventions. Don’t trade impulsively from live streams.

– Psychology & character: Mastering yourself is central — trading amplifies existing personal flaws. Keep journal entries constructive, avoid public venting that anchors negative emotion, and build discipline to stop trading when your plan is met.

– Proof & challenge: He insists his public analyses (tweets/videos) are verifiable in real time (cites a recent example calling 3864) and invites skeptics to reproduce similar public, timestamped analysis. He says the method is teachable and transferable.

– Personal notes: He shared personal stories (past mistakes, growth), family priorities, travel plans (RV/mobile command center), and a desire to help students succeed. He’s motivated by seeing students make money and wants people to use the skills to build multiple income streams, help others, and live purposefully.

Bottom line: ICT will provide free, public, hands-on mentorship in 2023 focused on algorithmic price structure, disciplined execution, and real-time demonstrations — but students must do the hard work, show up, and become independently responsible traders.
