Liquiditysweep
US100 - Reversal after liquidity sweep to target new highs?The chart presented shows a 1-hour analysis of the US100 (Nasdaq 100), illustrating a clean and structured price action narrative. Initially, we observe that the market swept liquidity at the lows, indicated by a sharp wick that pierced beneath the previous support levels. This type of liquidity sweep is common when smart money looks to grab stop-loss orders before reversing the trend.
Liquidity sweep to the downside
Following this liquidity sweep, price action aggressively moved upwards, breaking a lower high structure that had previously marked the bearish control of the market. This break of structure is a key bullish signal, suggesting a shift in momentum from bearish to bullish, and often signifies the beginning of a new upward leg.
1H FVG
An important element on this chart is the 1-hour Fair Value Gap (FVG), initially acting as a bearish imbalance. However, due to the strong bullish momentum, price not only reclaimed this level but did so decisively. As a result, this bearish FVG is now considered a bullish FVG, indicating that it may serve as a support zone on any short-term pullback.
Liquidity taken from the upside
After reclaiming the FVG and breaking structure, price surged further, taking out upside liquidity just above recent highs. This action typically leads to a short-term pullback, as profit-taking and new supply enter the market. The chart suggests that any retracement may find support at the 1H FVG, providing a potential entry point for bullish continuation.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the US100 demonstrated a textbook liquidity grab at the lows, followed by a break in bearish structure, a shift in momentum, and an inversion of a key FVG zone from bearish to bullish. The short-term upside liquidity has been cleared, and the next logical target is the high marked on the chart. Should the price respect the newly formed bullish FVG on any pullback, we can expect continuation toward that upper high, completing the bullish run.

GBPCAD 4H long setupGBPCAD 4H Spring 💡 | Smart Money Accumulation Before Expansion
Watching a textbook Wyckoff spring unfold here on the 4H.
After a multi-day rally, price retraced, and liquidity built up just above 1.8713. What happened next?
🔻 We got a liquidity sweep, tagging below 1.8687 — then a sharp rejection wick back into the range. That’s the spring.
🧠 Why this matters:
Liquidity below the range is now likely cleared.
Smart money triggered stops and may now flip positioning.
Buyer momentum reclaiming the broken zone signals strength returning.
🎯 My Play:
Long entry after reclaim above 1.8713
Stop below 1.8687 wick low
Targeting 1.8828 > 1.8830 as TP1
Extended TP at 1.8928 — aligning with prior supply zone
⚠️ Invalidation if we lose 1.8685 with momentum and no absorption.
This is not a chase trade — it’s a calculated entry after weak hands were shaken out. Let the market prove strength, then ride the reversion.
📈 If this spring holds, I expect continuation toward prior highs.
XAUUSD – End-of-Month Liquidity Play Ahead📌 Market Narrative & Liquidity Shift
The final day of June coincides with a critical macro liquidity event: the U.S. Treasury must roll over $6 trillion in COVID-era debt. This creates a significant supply-demand imbalance in the USD market, potentially sparking short-term dislocations in gold pricing.
Price action during the Asian session triggered a sweep of the previous demand zone around the 327x range, followed by a quick rebound. However, structural context on the 4H–1H charts still reflects bearish market order flow, with a clear BOS (Break of Structure) confirming bearish intent.
🧠 Smart Money Flow & Political Catalyst
Displacement Logic:
Recent price action printed a BOS after mitigation from a prior supply block around 3301. Liquidity engineering above this level suggests possible inducement traps.
Fundamental Overlay:
Trump’s call for aggressive Fed rate cuts to 1%-2% reinforces a dovish narrative that supports precious metals in the short term. But this is more likely to create fake buy pressure before another liquidity grab higher.
🔍 Current SMC Structure:
🔻 Premium Zone: 3327 – 3333 → Ideal for sell-side setups (internal liquidity pool).
🔺 Discount Zone: 3247 – 3259 → Untapped demand + potential SSL grab.
🟪 Internal CHoCH detected near 3272. Price reclaiming this level could initiate short-term bullish displacement toward imbalance zones.
🧭 Trade Map for Today (30/06)
🔹 BUY SETUP #1 – Countertrend Reclaim
Entry: 3272 – 3274 (on CHoCH confirmation)
SL: 3268
TP: 3282 → 3288 → 3301
🧠 Logic: Entry on reclaim of internal structure + inefficiency fill.
🔹 BUY SETUP #2 – Deep Discount Re-entry
Entry: 3249 – 3251
SL: 3244
TP: 3265 → 3282 → 3295
🧠 Logic: Entry near SSL + unmitigated imbalance zone.
🔻 SELL SETUP #1 – Reaction from Supply
Entry: 3298 – 3300
SL: 3304
TP: 3292 → 3282 → 3270
🧠 Logic: Rejection from partially filled FVG + minor liquidity pocket.
🔻 SELL SETUP #2 – Liquidity Grab in Premium
Entry: 3329 - 3332
SL: 3337
TP: 3322 → 3310 → 3298 → 3282
🧠 Logic: Price taps liquidity above internal high + confirms reversal.
📍 Final Thoughts
End-of-month flows often bring unexpected volatility. Combine that with macro liquidity rotation and political pressure, and we have a ripe setup for liquidity raids, inducements, and fakeouts. Stick to SMC structure and manage risk with discipline.
US 30 Potential longUS30 – Wyckoff Spring Setup for NY Session | Intraday Execution Play
Price rallied in the London session with rising volume and structure breaks —
Now we’re anticipating a classic Wyckoff spring scenario just ahead of NY open.
📍 Key Expectations:
Sweep of intraday support around 43,482
Strong buyer reaction (spring confirmation)
Expansion into the 43,600+ zone — possible 1.5R+ continuation
⚠️ Volume buildup + stop placement below prior structure make this zone ripe for a fakeout → reversal.
I’m watching for a quick flush below the line → wick rejection → engulfing confirmation to trigger longs.
This is a trap trade — smart money baits shorts, I’m betting they get squeezed.
🔫 Entry: On confirmation after spring
📉 Invalidation: Below the spring low
🎯 Target: 43,610 zone and trailing after break of 43,570
Let them walk into the trap. Then pull the trigger.

Mastering Liquidity Dynamics: Understand the Dynamic True ValueDear Reader,
Thank you for reading—your time is valuable.
Use the chart's zoom-in/out (-/+) function for better visibility. This chart captures a large sample for your evaluation.
Below is the manual detailing the Smart Farmer System —a Dynamic True Value framework derived from real-time data to anticipate market intent and liquidity behavior .
If this resonates with you, drop a comment below— constructive insights are always welcome .
The Dynamic True Value - a Smart Farmer System: Terminology and Mechanics
: For now, I have firmed up POC - Price of Control, VAP - Value Average Pricing, SULB - Sell Upper Limit Bound, BLLB - Buy Lower Limit Bound.
Mechanic:
POC - Where fair value price dynamic is read.
VAP - Trading above indicates bullish sentiment of the cycle, and the opposite for bearish sentiment.
A crossed over of:
Grey POC above Green VAP - Signaling distribution, accumulation, consolidation, build-ups, correction, retracement .
Green VAP above Grey POC - Bullish strength and momentum consistency .
Pink VAP above Black POC - Bearish strength and momentum consistency .
Flip of Pink VAP to Green VAP - Sentiment flips from bear to bull, and the same goes for green flip to pink showing bull to bear.
Validation of entry signals requires:
Signal's candle must close past the opposite side of POC – flip sentiment .
The confirmation candle (is the closed next candle immediately after entry signal candle) must continue closed past the POC – maintain sentiment .
The progress candle (is the next candle closed right after the Confirmation Candle) shows traction, momentum build-up, and volume consistency .
Hint of invalidation:
Signal's candle is considered void if the next candle prints a new entry signal in the opposite direction. This often signals accumulation, sideways movement, build-up, uncertainty, or swings in range .
The immediate next candle closed past POC to the opposite side.
What to understand about Liquidity Trap, SULB, and BLLB:
Liquidity traps
Often occur at the recent/previous flatlines of Dynamic True Value (POC, VAP, SULB, BLLB) .
It is worth paying attention to the market’s intent and institutional positioning.
Signs of exhaustion, absorption, inducement, offloading, and accumulation are visible in the M1 (one-minute) TF, with significant confluence near the previous/recent flatlines of Dynamic True Value in the higher/macro-TFs.
An Anchored VWAP tool can be helpful for filtering noise in the market. This tool can be found in the drawing tab in the TradingView platform.
SULB
Details the dynamic of upper resistance where Bears remain in control below the dynamic level.
Below this limit bound (LB) , bears show strength – bear sentiment .
A converging price toward this LB indicates bulls are present.
Moving past this LB (a candle closed above) and successfully RETESTING newly formed support indicates a confirmed directional shift . Followed by printing a new BLLB in the next following candles with price continuing to rise above this failed SULB.
A rejection below LB (a rejection/exhausted candle closed below LB) and successful RETEST reaffirms the resistance holds , indicating downside continuation .
BLLB
Details the dynamic of lower support where Bulls remain in control above the dynamic level.
Above this LB, bulls show strength – bull sentiment .
A converging price toward this LB signifies bears are present.
Moving past this LB (a candle closed below) and successfully RETESTING newly formed resistance indicates a confirmed directional shift . Followed by printing a new SULB in the next following candles with price continuing to push lower below this failed BLLB.
A rejection above LB (a rejection/exhausted candle closed above LB) and successful RETEST reaffirms the support holds , indicating upward continuation .
Important Notes:
Select preferred Entry’s Signal TF (ex. M3 TF, M5 TF for scalping strategy, M15 for intraday/daily strategy, 4H TF for day-to-weekly strategy, etc.).
Always refer to the selected Entry’s TF for trading progress. Anticipate TP and SL by watching the range in this TF.
Non-entry TFs are not for entry purposes. These multi-TFs are used for measuring strength, momentum, liquidity, positioning, structure – The market intends . The Non-entry TF is used to anticipate institutional executions and liquidity pools.
These criteria MUST BE MET. A failed criterion suggests vague execution. Be patient and wait for clear validations.
Institutions excel in creating illusions.
SFS is designed to stand ready, calm, and execute with Clarity.
SFS cuts through noise, distraction, and stays independent of NEWS, GEOPOLITIC, RUMORS, and herd mentality because all these are designed to mislead retail traders into institutional traps.
When we see such ambiguity against the criteria, we know not to fall into the TRAP and become the liquidity FUEL.
Stay sharp, only respond when signals are firmed. SFS is designed to counter Smart Money capitalism. It is about time to level the playing field.
EURJPY Tapped 4H Supply – Massive Drop Loading?EURJPY | 30-Min View with 4H CRT Zones
🔥 This is where Smart Money sharpens their blades…
🧊 New Confluence Just Dropped:
🔴 CRT 4H High Zone: 165.108–165.475
Price wicked right into the 4H Compression Reversal Top (CRT) — ideal Smart Money trap zone
This area aligns perfectly with the bearish OB/supply from previous screenshot
🔵 CRT 4H Low Zone: Around 164.630
Strong structure level where liquidity is sitting
Price respected it as temporary support before likely break-and-retest continuation
🔍 Price Action Logic:
✅ Price faked out above CRT 4H High, grabbing liquidity
✅ Immediate rejection candle with wick rejection signals institutional selling
🔁 Now price is retesting the mid-OB / lower CRT, likely forming a breaker pattern
🟥 Huge clean imbalance to the downside — marked by that juicy green TP box
🔽 Expectation: price fills inefficiency and heads to 163.378 minimum
🎯 Trade Parameters:
🔻 Entry Zone 165.100 – 165.397 (Red Supply / CRT High)
🛡 SL Above 165.475 (CRT 4H High)
🎯 TP Target 163.378 (bottom imbalance fill)
⚖️ RRR Over 1:4 potential — high precision entry zone
🧠 Chart Ninja Analysis:
“When CRT zones align with OBs and liquidity sweeps,
that’s a Smart Money feast waiting to happen.” – 🥷
This chart is a classic reversal blueprint. If you missed the first tap — wait for the retest. If this holds below CRT Low (164.630), expect full bearish momentum into midweek.
📊 Confirmation Tactics:
🔄 M15 bearish engulfing / shift in structure after tap into CRT
🔻 Break of 164.630 = confirmation of bearish intent
⏳ Optional: use FVG + volume spike as further entry triggers
🚨 Save this chart — it's one of those sniper moments where everything aligns!
EURJPY Supply Tap! Bearish Reaction Coming?EURJPY (30-Min) | Supply Zone Hit + Bearish Reversal Setup
This EURJPY move is brewing into a classic SMC bearish play — engineered liquidity run, supply zone reaction, and a projected melt to imbalance below. Let’s dissect the ninja logic 🧠📉
🔍 Breakdown of the Setup:
🟥 Supply / Order Block Zone
Price enters a strong bearish OB zone between 165.100–165.397
Previous rejection wicks in this zone = smart money sell interest
Price now testing that area again — potential for liquidity sweep + reversal
🟪 Multi-Zone Confluence
Multiple overlapping zones stacked: OB, mitigation block, and liquidity sweep area
Perfect spot for Smart Money to unload positions before sending price lower
📏 Risk-Reward Optimization
Entry near 165.100–165.397 zone
Stop Loss placed slightly above the last rejection wick (above 165.397)
Take Profit projected around 163.378 based on measured impulse leg and imbalance fill
🧠 Liquidity Narrative
The rally into supply is likely a buy-side liquidity hunt
Smart Money often drives price into key zones before triggering reversals
Price may wick above 165.171 to fake bulls before a strong sell-off
🧠 Chart Ninja Entry Plan:
🔻 Entry Zone 165.100 – 165.397 (Supply OB)
🛡 SL Above 165.450 (above wick / last structure high)
🎯 TP Target 163.378 (imbalanced fill target)
⚖️ RRR Approx. 1:4+ depending on entry precision
🥷 Chart Ninja Note:
“The trap is always set where the crowd feels the safest —
and that’s exactly where the ninja strikes.” 🥷📉
This setup could be a clean ride down if price reacts as expected. Confirmation entry = bearish engulfing on M15 or M30.
🔁 Bonus Observation:
You can see lower timeframes building internal liquidity, meaning we might get a sharp, volatile drop once that top wick finishes sweeping.
📍Mark this zone and set an alert — entry can trigger fast!

Did Gold Just Sweep the Low for a Reversal?After a clean sweep of the Previous Day’s Low (PDL) on XAUUSD, price reacted sharply, grabbing liquidity and signaling a possible shift in order flow. This forms the first pillar of my CRT model (Candle Range Theory) : Sweep, Break, Retest .
Following the sweep, we observed a strong Break of Structure (BOS) , indicating bullish intent. We will then wait for price to retrace back to a FVG at a discount, and then execute the trade.
The stop loss was logically placed just beneath the PDL sweep and FVG zone, protecting against deeper liquidity hunts. Take profit targets the next high where resting buy-side liquidity is likely to be engineered.
This setup checks all the boxes:
Sweep of PDL ✅
BOS confirming shift ✅
FVG retest for refined entry ✅
Solid RR and clean narrative ✅
This is a great example of how patience and a structured approach can create high-probability setups.

BTC Long Triggered from OB, Smart Money Played This Perfectly!BTCUSD | 30-Min Chart – Long Setup Execution
Bitcoin has just activated a clean long entry from a well-defined bullish Order Block at a key structural level. This move follows textbook Smart Money Concepts (SMC) — the kind of play institutional traders thrive on.
🔍 Setup Breakdown:
🔹 Order Block (OB):
Identified near 105,636 — aligned with previous support
Precise reaction zone after consolidation, showing institutional interest
OB respected after fakeout below short-term liquidity
🔸 Liquidity Sweep:
Quick wick below 105,250 acted as a stop hunt for early shorts
Price reclaimed the OB immediately after → classic Smart Money trap
🟩 Entry Zone (OB Zone):
105,636–105,250 range
Confluence with minor bullish imbalance and structure support
Price barely tapped the zone before launching higher
📈 Upside Target:
TP marked at 108,979 — prior liquidity pocket and untested highs
Large green zone shows ideal RR (approx. 1:6)
First obstacle: minor resistance at 106,750, but momentum looks strong
🟥 SL Placement:
Safely below OB at ~105,161
Below liquidity sweep zone = strong invalidation
🧠 Why This Setup Works:
✔ Price moved impulsively into the OB
✔ OB lines up with previous structure support
✔ Rejection + strong bullish candle = confirmation
✔ No significant resistance until higher liquidity zones (108K+)
This is classic SMC execution: trap, sweep, OB tap, and send. Let retail panic — we follow footprints.
💬 Ninja Wisdom:
"Smart Money doesn’t chase price — it traps and collects."
This was a clean confirmation of a bullish continuation after reclaiming control from liquidity grabs.
📍 Save this chart – this setup could explode into a full bullish swing

🔴 Price is tapping OB + 70.5–79% fib zone = sniper territory for shorts
Liquidity Perspective:
Earlier liquidity grab below 104,500 triggered this move
Now climbing back into premium pricing — potential trap before drop
Above the OB: resting liquidity + stop hunts expected
Execution Strategy:
✅ Entry confirmation: Look for M5–M15 bearish engulfing / BOS in OB zone
🎯 Entry area: 105,280–105,388 (limit or confirmation-based)
🛡 SL above 105,400 (above OB & 79%)
💰 TP zone: 104,500 (liquidity pool + fib 0%)
⚠️ Risk-to-Reward Ratio: 1:3+ potential — ideal for scalpers and intraday traders alike
🧠 Chart Ninja Notes:
You’re not chasing highs — you’re stalking where Smart Money sells to the crowd. This is premium pricing in a bearish leg, and BTC is approaching the kill zone. Patience = profit. 😤💸
📈 Game Plan Summary:
🔹 Entry Zone 105,280 – 105,388 (OB + 70.5–79% fib)
🔻 SL Zone Above 105,400
📉 Target 104,488 zone (fib 0%, equal lows)
🎯 RRR Potential 1:3+
💬 Pro Tip:
Wait for price to enter OB and stall before pulling the trigger.
The best trades happen after liquidity is swept — not before.
You’re not a retail trader. You’re a sniper. 🥷💥

📊 2. Key Levels:

This zone overlaps with a clean FVG + 70.5% fib level
Price likely to tap into this zone, fake out sellers, then launch with momentum
🔁 4. Execution Plan:
✅ Wait for:
M5–M15 bullish BOS or engulfing candle inside the OB
Strong rejection wick off the refined OB/FVG
Entry confirmation = go long with tight SL
TP = HTF resistance / liquidity highs

BTCUSD Bear Trap Loading – Premium OB Sell Setup ActivatedBTCUSD | 1H Smart Money Rejection Play – Premium Repricing Before Breakdown
The king of crypto is looking shaky. Smart money isn’t buying the pump. Here’s why BTCUSD might be gearing up for a steep dump from a premium order block reaction 🩸👇
📌 1. Market Context:
After a clean bearish leg, BTCUSD is now retracing into a premium zone — above the 70.5% Fib
Price is climbing into a high-probability reversal OB (highlighted in purple/red)
This area aligns with the 70.5%–79% golden retracement zone — where institutions love to load shorts 🧠📉
💎 2. Key Levels to Watch:
🔺 Premium OB Zone (Sell Zone): 108,378.95 – 109,276.15
🟣 Golden Rejection Zone: Fib 70.5% – 79%
🔽 Target Weak Low: 103,121.59
⛔ Invalidation/SL Above: 109,276.15
🎯 RR Potential: 1:4+ sniper-grade
Price is expected to tap this premium zone, sweep liquidity, and collapse into the weak low for a full market cycle completion 🔁
🧠 3. Smart Money Flow:
This move smells like a liquidity grab trap – taking out late longs before a drop
No bullish BOS from HTF – market structure still bearish
OB overlaps with inefficiency (FVG), making it ripe for rejection
Strong high is intact — unbroken = more confluence for downside
🎯 4. Execution Strategy (Entry Tips):
⚔ Wait for:
M5–M15 shift in structure (BOS) from bullish to bearish inside the OB
Sharp rejection wick or engulfing candle for confirmation
Ideal entry = wick entry near 109.2 with tight SL just above OB
Target = weak low for full mitigation and profit harvesting
This is surgical precision territory. The sniper must be patient before pulling the trigger 🥷
🔥 5. Why This Short is GOLD:
✅ OB + Fib + FVG confluence = high-odds reversal zone
✅ Price is in premium – not discount = perfect for shorts
✅ Weak low = magnet
✅ No bullish confirmation = no reason to long
This is not a guess — this is the blueprint for institutional execution 📐

BTCUSD Mind Mapping Analysis (MMC) + Structure Mapping + Target🕵️♂️ Introduction
Welcome traders! In today’s BTCUSD analysis, we dive deep into the Mind Mapping Concept (MMC) with curve-based support, smart money structure shifts, and mapped liquidity levels. This chart reveals how institutional players moved price through liquidity traps, accumulation zones, and major breakout points, culminating in a reversal zone.
This breakdown is ideal for traders using:
Smart money concepts (SMC)
Curve theory
Liquidity sweeps
Structure mapping
🔍 Detailed Breakdown of the Chart:
🔹 1. Ellipse Zone – Liquidity Trap Phase
The blue ellipse on the left shows a clear area of price compression and indecision.
This is where retail traders often enter prematurely, expecting reversal.
Smart money exploits these zones to collect liquidity — this is not yet a trend shift, but a trap.
You can observe multiple wicks and fakeouts, signaling manipulation and preparation for expansion.
🔹 2. Expanding Channel – Volatility Phase
Following the trap, price enters an expanding pattern (also known as a megaphone).
These structures indicate uncertain market behavior, often manipulated to clear both highs and lows.
Smart money uses this to exhaust both buyers and sellers before deciding the real trend direction.
🔹 3. Previous Target & SR Flip Zone
Price reaches the previous downside target, completing a downward liquidity move.
From here, the market forms a support-resistance flip (SR-Interchange) — a textbook zone for institutional entries.
Once this zone holds, it confirms that buyers are absorbing sell orders.
The curve starts forming, indicating deeper market structure realignment.
🔹 4. Black Curve – Mind Mapping Curve Support
One of the most important elements of MMC — the curve — acts as a psychological and algorithmic support line.
The curve captures the accumulation structure in a flowing manner.
Repeated touches and rejections confirm its strength.
As long as price respects the curve, the bullish momentum remains intact.
🔹 5. Breakout Confirmation
Price breaks through mid-range consolidation and hits Target 1.
This move confirms a shift in market sentiment from indecision to bullish control.
The breakout is supported by volume, structure alignment, and curve acceleration.
🔹 6. Major Breakout Zone
A major resistance line is broken — this marks a shift in macro structure.
At this point, we label the zone as “Major Breakout” — any retest of this can offer a high-RR entry.
🔹 7. Next Reversal Zone (Supply Zone)
Price is now inside the Next Reversal Zone, which is a potential supply area or liquidity magnet.
Institutional traders may use this zone for profit-taking or to initiate a deeper retracement.
Watch for rejection signs, such as long wicks, engulfing patterns, or volume divergence.
If this zone is absorbed (i.e., broken cleanly), expect another leg higher.
💡 MMC Summary (Flow Recap):
Trap → Expansion → Liquidity Target → SR Flip → Curve Accumulation → Breakout → Target Hit → Reversal Zone
Each stage reflects smart money behavior and follows the natural cycle of manipulation → accumulation → distribution.
📊 What to Watch Next?
Confirmation Rejection in Reversal Zone? Short entries could be valid with curve re-entries.
Bullish Continuation? A clean break above reversal zone = new weekly highs likely.
Retest of Curve? If price pulls back, watch for rejections on the curve for safer long positions.
🚨 Trade Tips Based on This Setup:
✅ Use multi-timeframe confluence (M30 + H1 or H4)
✅ Always mark out previous liquidity zones
✅ Place SL below the curve or zone rejections
✅ Avoid entering trades inside expanding zones – wait for structure confirmation
🔖 Conclusion
This BTCUSD setup showcases a masterclass in smart money behavior using the Mind Mapping Concept (MMC). From trap to breakout, every move is cleanly mapped, providing a strong edge to traders who understand institutional footprints.
Whether you're a scalper, day trader, or swing trader, incorporating MMC curve support and liquidity logic can take your trading precision to the next level.
USDJPY Ready to Bounce – Sniper Long from Smart Money OBUSDJPY | 30-Min Bullish Setup – Premium to Discount + Order Block Reaction
USDJPY looks primed for a bullish reversal from a smart money perspective. Let’s walk through why this setup could be the cleanest long of the week 📈🧠
📌 1. Current Market Narrative:
Price retraced deep into discount levels (beyond 70.5%) after a strong bullish leg
Tapped into a refined bullish Order Block (OB) sitting just above a strong low
Multiple liquidity grabs have already occurred, leaving internal structure vulnerable to a reversal
Smart money has likely accumulated below recent lows… ready to pump toward Buy Side Liquidity 🧲
🧠 2. Key Technical Levels:
✅ Order Block Zone (Entry): 143.164
🔻 Strong Low: 142.048 (protected)
🟢 Buy Side Liquidity Target: 144.447
🔼 Weak High (Magnet): 146.290
Entry Point: Within OB (143.1–143.2)
TP Zones: 144.447 (main), 146.290 (stretch target)
SL: Below OB – around 142.048
RR: ~1:4+ — sniper grade 🥷
📊 3. Smart Money Flow:
OB aligned with 70.5–79% Fibonacci discount zone (deep retrace = strong reaction)
Structure shows signs of exhaustion on the sell side
Price may now reverse with displacement toward upside inefficiencies
Buyers likely stepping in aggressively from this level
🚀 4. Execution Plan (LTF Confirmation Entry):
✅ Wait for:
M5–M15 BOS (bullish break of structure)
FVG or mitigation entry confirmation
Maintain tight SL below OB (2–3 pips buffer)
Bonus: If price holds above 143.2 with strong M5 bullish candle close, that’s go-time for smart money longs.
🧨 5. Why This Setup is 🔥:
High probability bounce zone (OB + deep fib retrace)
Clean RR structure with solid target at buy side liquidity
Market structure shift likely as lower highs start breaking
Liquidity swept under recent lows = trap complete
This is the kind of setup that institutional algos are coded to exploit 🤖
