About Michael J. Huddleston

US-based trader (St. Joseph, Michigan) known globally as the Inner Circle Trader (ICT), with 2M+ YouTube subscribers and a self-taught background dating to the mid-1990s. His terminology — order blocks, fair value gaps, liquidity sweeps, the Interbank Price Delivery Algorithm — has become part of mainstream retail-trading vocabulary, and he currently publishes a large free mentorship library with no courses or upsells. He is also one of the most polarizing figures in trading education: he has not published an independently verified track record, his 2016 public attempt to grow $10,000 to $1,000,000 failed, and he reportedly blew his account in the 2024 Robbins Cup. Supporters credit his free education as foundational; critics argue his concepts repackage traditional supply/demand ideas and note the absence of verified results. No regulatory actions found. Net-worth figures circulating online are unverified estimates.

How to verify this yourself

Take a few minutes to check public sources directly:

  1. 01

    Search the person's name on their own regulator's public register, if any (for example the FCA Financial Services Register for UK-authorised individuals).

  2. 02

    Check court-record databases and official press releases for named enforcement actions, rather than relying on social-media summaries.

  3. 03

    Look for independent evidence of a track record on neutral platforms, not the person's own site or affiliate network.

  4. 04

    Confirm the person's identity matches the social profiles that promote them.
