[ZERO IKA 🗡️ @IamZeroIka]

If you’ve ever felt like you’re not enough and wondering if you can make it, this is for you.

I come from nothing, literally.

I never had a united family, wealthy relatives, or any particular talent or special skill to rely on.

If anything, I’ve always had to figure things out on my own in every area of life, sometimes because of circumstances, sometimes because of who I am.

Do you know what I’ve truly always had more than most people? 3 things.

Hunger, sacrifice, and the desire to improve my life.

Hunger isn’t just lack, It’s a constant tension toward something you don’t yet have, but deeply feel you deserve.

It’s waking up with a weight in your stomach and going to sleep with a question in your head: “Am I doing enough?”

That hunger didn’t come from theory or motivation videos.
It was built in very real, very heavy moments of my life:

- Working 10–12 hours a day, 6–7 days a week in a kitchen, earning €1,200 a month and being treated like s**t
- Being physically exhausted..didn’t like what I saw in the mirror, I didn’t recognize myself, and I carried more weight than I should have
- Going back home to a difficult family environment, where the weight of problems often fell on my shoulders
- Not having the possibility to enjoy my adolescence as it should have been due to the point above

I felt like I wasted years of my life and I wanted to give a full turnaround where hunger was the predominant beast consuming me from the inside.

Hunger makes you restless, uncomfortable, often lonely, but it keeps you alive.
It stops you from settling, from numbing yourself, from slowly switching off like so many people do when they realize no one is coming to save them.

I never lost that hunger, not even in the moments when it would have been easier to quit and tell myself, “It just wasn’t meant to be.”

Sacrifice has been my daily language, probably mastered through spoons and pans.

Giving things up while others took breaks.
Pushing forward while life seemed easier for those with support systems, shortcuts, and safety nets.
Sacrifice isn’t heroic, not even poetic.
It’s boring, repetitive, and often thankless. It’s doing the right thing when no one is watching and when no one is applauding. It’s choosing to be tired, misunderstood, sometimes even judged, just to stay loyal to a goal only you can see clearly.

And then there’s the desire to improve.

But not the kind shouted on social media or recycled motivational quotes.

I’m talking about a quiet, almost obsessive drive that forces you to look in the mirror and acknowledge your limits without excuses. To tell yourself the truth, even when it hurts. To study, observe, fail, and get back up with a little more awareness every time.

Improving doesn’t mean becoming perfect, it means becoming responsible for yourself.

Coming from nothing takes a lot away from you, that’s true, but it also gives you something incredibly powerful: you have nothing to defend, only everything to build.

You don’t have to protect an image or live up to someone else’s expectations.
You’re free to fail, to start over, to shed your skin and become someone new and most importantly, you learn early that no one owes you anything.

Every step forward is earned. Every result is paid for in full. That’s what makes you solid, even when everything around you shakes.

I’m not writing this for applause, if you're wondering.

I’m writing it for those who feel behind, out of place, without support. For those who believe they started at a disadvantage and are therefore doomed.

That’s absolutely not fucking true.

Your starting point does not define your destination.

I've built the life I wanted without ANY external help, not a single one.

What makes the difference is how much you’re willing to endure without losing yourself, how many times you’re ready to begin again without growing bitter, and how well you can turn hunger into discipline instead of anger.

If you come from nothing, know this: you are not empty.

You are space.

Space to grow, to become, to choose who you truly are and if you’re hungry, if you know how to sacrifice, if you want to improve even when it scares you, then you’re already much further ahead than you think.

No one is coming. That’s why you have to save yourself.

@IamZeroIka There is a song from a french rapper that tells exactly this, my daily motivator.

Although I've paved the way for many of you, the reality is that you must face your own challenges, or you won't succeed. Struggle and pain are non-negotiable parts of the journey. That's why I never make things too easy, because true champions are forged through adversity. It’s the only way greatness is achieved.

Barking Dogs

When I was on Drugs „he’s so fucked he will never become sober“

When I started Muay Thai and wanted to fight „its too early to fight he wont make it he must minimum train one year“

When I began Trading „it’s too risky and nobody makes money with it consistently - hes chasing dreams.“

I have more examples but I think thats enough.

The people… They are kinda like barking dogs. They want to be recognized. They want you to stay where they are. A dog doesn’t want another dog to leave.

The difference between those kind of humans and dogs is the humans aren’t loyal and not worth to spend time with.

The barking people aren’t successful and many are in for the gossip because being against someone can build a strong connection. It gives them a good feeling.

But when you go and check what they have to show. You see they shouldn’t even be allowed to talk at all.

The people who said I never become sober - dead or still on the streets. I’m sober.

The people who said I shouldn’t fight - never went into the ring. I went fighting.

The people who said one cant make it in trading - ask their boss if they can leave 5 minutes earlier. I make money in the Markets. Thank you Moneytaur.

It’s always the same Pattern. Become successful in something - people start hating.

The reason why they do this is because they just cant go the same path. They protect themselves with that, it’s a psychological pattern called projection. Deep inside they are just jealous.

They are like barking dogs. Very loud but have nothing to say.

I’ve been the same when I was young. I couldn’t do it? I couldn't have it? I just hated it then. Easy way. The downside is - you stay stuck.

So whatever others say, don’t let it affect you. If you do you are about to join their world. And their world is sad.

Being successful isn‘t for everyone, it’s not an easy path. I’m at the beginning and it’s hard. But I enjoy it and I grow.

So if someone talks against you and you feel offended and can’t ignore it - just look what they have to show for. Nothing.

They never are above you at a higher level. Hate always comes from below.

Like I said. Some sh*t is just too obvious.

[🎯 Master @Moneytaur_]

Network with each other.
Build together.
Help others.
Ignore the noise of CX.

And most importantly, achieve your freedom through your own effort, by truly understanding not only my strategies and mindset, but what my purpose has always been.

Over the last few years, waking up sleeping lions was the mission. And in many ways, it’s done.

If i didn’t exist, the percentage of wrecked lives in this space would be far higher. I’ve done more alone than most so-called "experts" with entire teams behind them, churning out recycled useless content.

I appreciate the trust, and the acceptance of tough love.

Order Blocks: The Battlefield of Buyers and Sellers

Sometimes it's helpful to understand the why of something. If you want to move from trading order blocks as a blind signal to trading the market behind the order block, read on...

We all know the hidden order block represents a potential trade entry, but have you ever wondered why? What is an order block, really? And what are the mechanics that make it a good place to trade?

Also, why do Order Blocks have that specific structure: a short initial block and a long secondary block?

An order block represents a place where a large volume of orders were transacted and some of those orders were left unfilled. Any time an order takes place, there are always two parties: a buyer and a seller. Price action is essentially the footprint of the "battle" between these two groups and the order block is the battlefield. In an order block, the party opposite the trend steps in aggressively: Price is trending down, buyers step in and start to push price up. If they are successful, price reverses, and the second candle of the order block goes up. If they fail, the second candle move down. The more aggressive the move (the body of the second candle) the more that tells us that price was displaced (there were not enough buyers to absorb the orders, and price was displaced aggressively), meaning, there was slippage, and the winning party tolerated that slippage because they believed in their level. If the first block of an OB is the coil, the second is the coil unwinding, and it tells us decisively who won this specific battle. The first candle of the block is smaller because it is where the battle is fought: orders are being transacted aggressively on both sides, and the body of the candle remains rather tight. The second candle shows the winner and loser.

This is the essence of an order block: it is a place where a volume of activity happened, and we expect a lot of activity to happen there again when price returns. An order block is not a sign of price going up or down, it’s a place where a battle for direction will occur. An order block is not a signal to take a trade, it’s a location where a trade can happen.

When price comes back to the level, three things can happen:

1) Price bounces at the level and the level is defended. (A bullish OB lifts price, when price falls back down, the level holds and price bounces.) Buyers win, sellers lose.

2) When price hits the level, price falls through it and a FVG is printed, hiding the OB. Sellers won by either overwhelming the buyers completely or the buyers simply didn't show up to the battle. (liquidity in the OB is preserved as there was no fight.)

3) Price can hit the level, consolidate as buyers and sellers battle it out, a fight ensues and then price reverses or falls from there. (The liquidity from the OB is drained.)

Now price is below the level of the initial bullish OB. When price comes back up, what can happen? It's the same: buyers and sellers will fight, or not fight, and price will either reverse, consolidate and then do something, or print a new FVG.

This is why we trade OBs: they are places where SOMETHING will happen. But we don't always know what, and that's why MT says that learning to spot levels is only the beginning. You have to be able to "read the battlefield" to make an educated guess about who will win on the field.

Fib confluence is not confluence for who wins the battle, it's a confluence for the level being a valid battlefield.

But once the battlefield is identified, what do you do now? You look at the majors: Who is winning the battle over on USDT.D and TOTAL? And most decisively: is there a battle taking place over on the majors at the same time as you're taking your entry on an asset? If so, you have more information available to determine who is winning the bigger battle. This is why MT tells us to look for entries at levels where levels will also hit on Majors. You are making a trade based on who you think will win the battle of "105.30" short or long, but you can better predict that by looking at who is winning the battle over on Total. No battle, less information.

Some traders also use things like order flow, heat maps, etc. to determine who will win the battle.

And MoneyTaur specifically teaches us to look at the information environment: what is the propaganda being pushed to the market when price hits a battlefield? He who controls the memes controls the world. Whales need a counterparty. If they want to sell their holdings at a specific battlefield, they need to bring in significant counterparties, people who passionately believe that they can win the battle. Breakout chasers who see a pump; moon boys who will buy every dip; trapped traders who simply want to get out at break even, and forced liquidations. These are the sheep that propaganda will help bring to the battlefield for slaughter. If the news is bullish, the sellers are probably trying to get buyers to the battlefield so they can dump. If the news is bearish, well, they need sellers to come in and dump so they can vaccuum up and buy.

When you enter a trade at an order block or hidden order block, you are stepping onto the field, whether you realize it or not. Finding the battlefield is the first step, congratulations, but your job now is to make sure you are playing on the side of the winning team.
