Smart Money Concepts (SMC) Analysis
1. Liquidity Sweep
There was a clear liquidity grab at the recent swing high.
Price aggressively spiked above previous highs (buy-side liquidity), tapping into the premium zone of the prior range.
2. Supply Zone
The purple zone you marked aligns with a Bearish Order Block (OB) or supply zone.
Price tapped into it, showing signs of rejection — validating this as a potential distribution point.
3. Break of Structure
Price broke below a short-term higher low, indicating a shift in market structure from bullish to bearish.
This break is key for institutional confirmation of a bearish intention.
ICT Concepts Analysis
1.Liquidity Pools
Prior highs were engineered liquidity, meant to induce breakout buyers.
Once swept, Smart Money used this liquidity to fill sell orders.
2.Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) Zone
After the sweep and move into the supply zone, the rejection fits the OTE concept — entering after a retracement between the 61.8%–79% Fibonacci zone of the recent bearish leg.
3. Fair Value Gap (FVG)
Likely unfilled FVGs (imbalance zones) exist below current price.
Price is now targeting these inefficiencies — a common ICT target.
Conclusion & Projection
- The white curved arrow on the chart implies bearish expectation.
- The rejection from the supply zone + liquidity sweep + BOS signals strong sell-side intent.
- Target areas would be:
Sell-side liquidity below recent lows (around 1.1280 and potentially 1.1260).
