This Templates Series has been implemented to provide you with the sharpest edge in trading through reading order flow and to help you achieve the ultimate trading working space.
To create this, Igor has compacted all previous templates that have been shared over the years into only 6 templates.
These are the must-have tools we need during our business hours “trading” to get the job done.
In this tutorial, Order Flow, Sessions and classic TPO will be covered.
Each aspect of the template will be explained in this tutorial.

02:25 – WHY TEMPLATES ARE A “MUST HAVE”?

- Be it a nspoc, vwap close, single print and no matter volatility we get in the day, you will be ready.
05:10 – WHY RE-WRITE HISTORY?
- The templates have been in the making for over 3 years.

- The nsPoc’s and tPoc’s will act as resistance/support, great for that trend following.
- Current session nsPoc’s are dynamic, meaning they will change values with time and volume.

- TF’s 5 & 30 Minutes. Can also be used with Volume ie. 1Mil,5Mil etc.
- Tick size must be adjusted to volatility.

- Delta profile becomes visible when zoomed in and total volume point of control for daily.
- Daily, Weekly and Monthly point of controls with volume levels.
- Great to pick the best level depending on the trading plan.
- If a swing trade, then you want the bigger HVN.
- Day trade or scalp, then the closer level HVN is acceptable.
- See them as bias:
- Once one side is finished, then look for the other side.
