Ian Lee claims unnamed R value secures trading edge
Ian Lee asserts an unnamed R value guarantees returns during uncertain market conditions without providing data or sources.
Ian Lee (@tmmrwseoul) posted on Oct 9 that catching retracements during downtrends is the first step in a strong uptrend, citing an already secured R value. The post includes no links to data, backtests, or performance records. Evidence from his Jul 10 post shows he admits to relying on gut feelings and not fully exploiting available options, while his profile explicitly states NOT A FINANCIAL ADVICE.
What it asserts
- Catching retracements during downtrends is the first step in a strong uptrend
- An R value has already been secured that guarantees the trade
- This strategy works even when market conditions are uncertain
Evidence
The post provides no links to backtests, trade logs, or performance data. The flyertalk.com source is a Delta Airlines forum thread about passport information, completely unrelated to trading.

Lee's Jul 10 post reveals he relies on intuition rather than quantified strategies, stating he is trying to quantify his approach this summer.
i go by ‘gut’ feeling when the time comes- meaning i don’t fully exploit whats at my hands
Lee's profile explicitly disclaims financial advice, and his Jul 10 post admits not being greedy is a defensive strategy that works only because better options haven't been figured out yet.
not being ‘greedy’ when day trading is defensive strategy that works like a charm only because we haven’t figured out fully on the other options yet
Why it matters
Traders and agents evaluating this account should note that Lee's strategy claims lack verifiable performance data and his own posts contradict the certainty implied in the Oct 9 post. The profile disclaimer and admission of gut-based trading suggest this is opinion, not a validated system.
Keep
- The Oct 9 post contains no links to backtests or trade logs
- Lee's Jul 10 post admits to gut-based trading and unquantified strategies
- The profile explicitly states NOT A FINANCIAL ADVICE
- The only linked source is a Delta Airlines passport forum thread
Next
- Review Lee's Jul 10 thread on ICT theory and regional breakouts for his actual methodology
- Check if Lee publishes quantified R-value backtests in his highlights
Still open
- What specific R value is Lee referencing and where is it documented?
- Does Lee have any published trade logs or backtest results to support the Oct 9 claim?
