The ICT Trading Market Maker Buy model (MMBM) and the market maker sell Model (MMSM) is understanding that price is repricing higher into a HTF PD Array to go down (MMSM) or repricing lower into a HTF Discount array to move up (MMBM) and it happens every day.
This ICT Trading MMXM model leaves footprints; we can use them to take high probability setups.
Macros are 20-minute time windows where we expect to see low resistance liquidity runs (LRLR).
This means that price often uses these times to start a run towards liquidity or rebalance and imbalance; we expect speed.
We use both ICT Trading and Hydra macros. These are some of them.


Using the logic of a Market Maker Sell Model:
Clear draw on liquidity: Low hanging fruit is the Original Consolidation. It can also be HTF liquidity or Imbalance beyond the OC.
At least with H4 bias. I want to see price hit a M15/H1 PD Array; that’s the origin of the move. Use your preferred entry model: Turtle soup, Inverse Fair value gap, Breaker Block, etc.
The entry needs to happen inside a Macro.

The target doesn’t need to be hit during the macro, but it would be ideal.
On the left side of the MMXM, I want to see price engineering Trend-line liquidity or Relative Equal Lows.
