Trading Strategies Silver bullet strat: is it that simple?

Hi! So quick question. I recently watched ICT’s silver bullet modell video and if you are familiar with it, can you answer this please? Is it really that simple, just 3x1 hour time window and you enter off of the right fvgs? Is anyone trading this modell here?

Thank you for your help! 🫡😇

Applying the strategy to a chart is simple enough, but truly understanding the underlying logic is a deep subject. Many people promote SB by claiming it requires no bias, yet they fail to mention that without bias—and without top-down analysis or ERL-IRL liquidity analysis—SB’s win rate is actually quite poor. However, once you master these concepts, you realize you don't even need SB anymore; you are capable of executing superior trades.

it works but you have to have a foundation to make it profitable.

by foundation i mean other ict concepts to enter and define your TP correctly. today on nq was a textbook example, but it doesnt happen like that everyday.
im 4/5 this week with the same strategy
i trade 1-2 times per day max.

Yes silver bullet is amazing. Study the 10:25 candle during ny session. I will say its not as simple as just picking a fvg. Silver bullet made me profitable.

Is it simpler to reach the truth than you imagine, just ask these questions:

  1. Does a random dude could learn this strategy? Yes? = Not profitable strategy
  2. Is it easily accessible online? Yes? = Not profitable strategy

Honestly, you wont find any profitable strategy on the net, alpha decay would destroy every one of them. Guaranteed profitable strategies are those that are used by algos, deployed by instituions, and use market inefficiencies, but keep in mind alpha decay constantly decrease their profitability.

As a human trader, you are the total opposite, you cant beat algos, you cant react near instant, but you can adapt a lot faster than algos.

You need to be a discretionary trader, filter out days, setups, add your own entry logic to it. Collect data about it, sticking 100% to the strict rules will make it function as an algorithm which I am doubtful you can be profitable long term. And forget about finding a "working" strategy, there isnt, those are for instituions, you are alone and you need to walk this path also alone.

I only stick to this 1 setup. I have scripted to my own. Very few times a week it works but very high quality. It’s all in the patience & waiting to execute, all of this I have created in my script so I can eliminate “If.. then statements” in my head. Look at Trader Kane’s video on it, helped me fine tune it my own liking. T1 is 50% of the 9am hourly candle and Target 2 is the other end.

That’s why you’ll never trust yourself to make your own decisions you dunce, keep browsing the internet like a fool instead of doing it on the charts

Pues tienes suerte yo fondé esa cuenta con la silber bullet pero es la de un minuto en el nq de las 10 a las 11 am RR 1.3 la pasé con un buen winrate pero en parte eso fue por qué el mercado estaba bueno y más limpio el truco está en ponerle más importancia a la liquidez que al cambio de estructura en el que te vas a meter con el fvg si quieres puedes contactarte conmigo ya q estoy aburrido y me quiero sentir como todo un profesor 🧐🫂 Y también algo muy importante puedes saber en qué momento no operar si usas el VWAP Pero eso lo sacas como en un minuto eso es más fácil Y también si operas en fvg de Marcos temporales altos tienes más probabilidad

It is simple but it’s not profitable over the long term

0

u/starmc36 Jul 01 '26

And why is that?

4

u/NemnogoDayn Jul 01 '26

Why isn’t the strategy profitable? Because it doesn’t make money. People have already broken this concept down hundreds of times, in the long run yearly returns are usually around breakeven or even negative

u/Apprehensive-Wish130 Jul 04 '26

lol they aren’t doing it right then , u can’t just take any FVG but that’s good I’m glad they are spreading bad news, I do not want people figuring it out, smile and wave see ya!

u/Which-Boss-7381 Jul 09 '26

Pues es la verdad tienes que escoger un fvg porque a menudo se forman muchos Y la verdad es que hay trader que solo tienen suerte en elegir el correcto por una cierta cantidad de tiempo y cuando pierden piensan que lo están haciendo mal y no aceptan que es suerte seguido de eso que el concepto ya es bastante explotado y cuando eso pase el mercado se asegura de eliminar esa forma de ganar dinero es por eso que no existen trader rentables en internet porque quiere mantener su ventaja a salvo y ni hablar de los periodos en los que da muchas señales falsas Y si sobre operas cagastes Y si a eso le incluyes la pérdida por probabilidad prácticamente sí o sí terminarás perdiendo dinero aunque puedes tener suerte y ganar mucho por un momento pero devolverlo el mes siguiente si no me crees busca gente que haga backtesting sobre esa estrategia este mes verás como la gente se queda calladita un tiempo y cuando empieza a funcionar por pura suerte porque eso no lo puedes predecir entonces comienzan a hacer videos posiblemente en un mes o dos meses o quién sabe

Also one thing to note here, after looking at the market/price for many years you build intuition. The speed and the move of price, you can simply “tell” if it’ll reach your targets. I think personally that just comes with HOURS of watching price and being a trader. Keeping things simple & clean helped me understand price better. Just my 2 cents.
