✔️Because of low volume, orders submitted by a retail trader cannot affect the price of an asset.

GBP/AUD Intra-Day Analysis Update (2021.09.09) GBP/AUD has turned Bullish again for day traders and we can see some fresh opportunities arise! There are 2 sell zones marked, one aggressive and one conservative. The aggressive zone might be violated before the bullish move so always looks for structure breaks on the lower TF like 5min to confirm entries.
GBPUSD Supply & Demand Analysis M30Finished the week with this nice trade.
Demand orderblock using wyckoff. Consolidation and then a fakeout. I was waiting for price to make a retest, it formed an engulfing which on lower timeframe was another orderblock, then it retested it and took the liquidity created by the big bearish m30 candle.
GBPAUD Supply & Demand M30 AnalysisGBPAUD has a very significant liquidity level above. I expect price to grab liquidity while making an OrderBlock. Then, after taking orders from the OB, price can continue down to grab the liquidity from the downside. No bullish orderblocks exist to stop the price from doing that imo.
