ICT Optimal Trade Entry – The 62% to 79% Retracement Zone
The ICT Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) model uses Fibonacci retracement levels to identify potential entry zones.
The commonly watched levels are:
• 62%
• 70.5%
• 79%
In a bullish setup, traders look for price to retrace into the OTE zone before considering a long position.
In a bearish setup, they look for a retracement before considering a short position.
OTE works best when supported by structure, liquidity, and other confluences.
Do you use OTE with Order Blocks or FVGs?
