eBacktesting - Learning: Power of 3

eBacktesting - Learning: Power of 3 highlights ICT’s “Power of 3” intraday story:
- Accumulation: price builds a quiet range
- Manipulation: a sweep grabs liquidity above or below that range (the classic stop hunt)
- Distribution: the real move expands away from that range, often in the opposite direction of the sweep
Use it to train your eyes to recognize when price is likely “setting up” vs when the session is actually “moving,” and to build a clean daily narrative around liquidity and expansion.
These indicators are built to pair perfectly with the eBacktesting extension, where traders can practice these concepts step-by-step. Backtesting concepts visually like this is one of the fastest ways to learn, build confidence, and improve trading performance.
