"The Bodies Tell The Story.. The Wicks Do The Damage" - ICTIn this video I'm going to go through one of ICT's most famous sayings, which is "The bodies tell the story, and the wicks do the damage". If haven't taken the time to understand what he means, then you are seriously putting yourself at a disadvantage if you are using his concepts. This is one of the most crucial and useful pieces of the ICT puzzle. You often hear him say that the wicks are painting outside of the lines, which he sees as permissable when he is trading his PD Arrays. So without further ado, I'll try my best to provide some insight.
For illustrative purposes I'll use his Market Maker Sell Model. Just to note that this is not a video teaching about his market maker models, so the focus will not be on that or his other concepts. If you don't understand a certain term or concept, please check out ICT's YouTube Channel or the countless other resources online. This video will be predominantly shedding some light on candle bodies and wicks.
I urge you to go into your own charts and do your own study. This will truly be something eye opening if it is the first time you've actually decided to take notice.

BTC is going down to touch the DP orderblockBy closing daily candle below the IDM liquidity in BTC daily timeframe, we can expect that price falls down to touch the desicion point orderblock at 54900.
After that it should create any confirmation for buy.
But if price goes below the DP (below 51000) then it could fall down to reach ENG liquidity and Extreme OB at 41870 and 40300 and then raise up to 73853 again .
this is my personal analysis and its not a financial advice.
ETHUSDT.PTF (Time Frame): 4H. Price closed above inducement liquidity and OB (Order Block). In this scenario, I expect price to push higher, at least to the level of 3938.15 and maybe higher. After reaching this level, the analysis must be updated.
USD/JPYThe USD/JPY returns to consolidation and I want to see the price taking buy stop and high quality OB to short.
🌕🚀Long Opportunity on SOL/USDT: Leveraging POC, Fibs and SMC💰Welcome to my trading idea for SOL/USDT! We're eyeing a long position based on a confluence of factors including the Point of Control (POC), Fibonacci retracement levels, and Smart Money Concepts (SMC) with a Bullish Order Block (OB).
Entry: Our entry point is strategically set at 173.78, residing within the Golden Pocket of Fibonacci retracement levels. This zone not only intersects with significant POCs but also aligns with a Bullish OB, reinforcing its attractiveness as a potential entry point.
Stop Loss: To manage risk effectively, our stop-loss order is positioned at 165.22. Placed below the Golden Pocket, OB, and POCs, this level provides a buffer against potential downward movements.
Take Profit: Our take-profit target is set at 200.20$. This represents our first profit-taking level (TP1) and offers a favorable risk-reward ratio.
By leveraging these technical indicators and market insights, we aim to capitalize on potential bullish momentum in SOL/USDT, while ensuring prudent risk management. Remember to adjust your position size according to your risk tolerance and always stay informed of market developments. Happy trading! 🌟📈

USD/JPYI want to see the price violates BSL to take buy stop within FVG on hourly USD/JPY and how it will react. Will it form the highest probability of the OB that will take SSL?
1H Orderblock IdentifiedAs you can see an orderblock is there (The red rectangle).
Based on market situation in next days, We should decide. But something big is there.
Wait for it :)
XAUUSD 4H FVG Area and Finding Lower HighXAUUSD still on bearish trend on 4H TF and want to find their lower high (2047 - 2049). If trendline break very possible to going into their lower high before (2064 - 2065) or maybe higher at their higher OB (2085 - 2088). I am looking for Buy setup on LTF at 4H FVG. On LTF there is a support area too on 4H FVG. Pretty good for entry and waiting for rejection candle and CHoCH. But if there is a rejection after hit the trendline, we looking for sell setup.
Liquidity isn't presentTrading above the the bullish order block
Poor daily volume
Resistance + 75.20, 75.75, and 76EGP
RULE of THUMB: comi breakout leads to FERTILIZERS eclipse
XTZUSDT.Preaching 4H Order block initiate the first long position and pending order could be placed.
if price go down to lower level near to 4H order block, according to weak upmovement in 4H time frame, i expect some fluctuation befor going up. and in oder to masive down movement in 4H time frame, pushing price to the up side s more possible
entry price, SL and TP is clear on the chart and i hope helps you makeing profit
It would be my pleasure to hear your thoughts on the analysis.
BTC/USD where is the moneh?The moneh (moneh = $ = liquidity = equal highs and lows)
Use the moneh to find
- Entry positions (expected stop hunt)
- Exit positions (equal highs and lows)
Warning : ETH Showing signs of falling!As you know we are in a downside structure and this upside move is just for grabbing more liquidities.
Now ETH after grabbing IDM liquidity is under of DP orderblock and made minor Choch so it have a potantial of downside move to 883 $ .
If price moves up to 2460 $ the falling senario will be cancelled until the price reach 3700 $
This is my own idea and its not a financial advice.
CADCHF SHORT 15MIN TIMEFRAMEOverall trend is down. Selling from area of imbalance. Sl set above the orderblock. Making risk free at 1:1 rr. Huge liquidity wick further reasoning to go to the downside.

2018 Rejection ===> 2002
Looking at this chart, we can see Price was moving in a a 1HR range, from 2015, we saw some rejection that took Price down to 2005 where Price failed to close below the range, and we saw a sharp rejection at the imbalance/FVG to the upside which brought us to 2014 where Price finally closed above the range, and it continued trending up to 2017.
The rejection at the FVG/Imbalance is a liquidity that needs to be taken if Price wants to make another swing high, which means Price might get to 2002 after sweeping the current high at 2018, and getting rejected.
More update will follow at NY Session where the action resides.

GBPUSD BUY OPPORTUNITY 1:11 RR Using SMC method we can see on the 4hr chart, break of structure to the upside. There is a nice order block which has been modified on the 1hr and 15 min chart. Price has left sell side liquidity hoping trade triggers before buy side liquidity is filled. Before entry will be looking closely at 15 min chart. Once it hits OB we want to see break of structure on 15min timeframe to the upside and look for entry. Targeting 4hr OB. RR: 1:11.

EURUSD SELL 5mWe're eyeing an OrderBlock on the 5 minute chart right near the tip of an Intermediate Term High (ITH). Our stop would account for the Fair Value Gap where the ITM formed. We would target the Intermediate Term Low, also on the 5 minute chart for a decent 1:3 RR. This trade would only be valid long before the news. If it isn't long into the trade before the news then there would be no trade.
ETH/BTC Catch up time?ETH/BTC chart broken down into some simple key areas. We've recently had a double bottom as ETH has lost strength against Bitcoin, however for me it is clear that if the breaker block is flipped after such a strong reaction from the double bottom ETH is on its way to reclaiming strength against BTC.
The next level of major resistance would be 0.0625 area. After BTC's huge move recently and other L1's like SOLANA and INJECTIVE etc ETH has had a lagging response in comparison.
With profits from BTC filtering down the next obvious place would be Ethereum before some sort of mini alt-season if that's possible at this stage. Coupled with the news that Blackrock have just registered an Ethereum trust in Delaware ETH looks very strong currently.
GBPUSD SellThis is my idea for GBP/USD on a 15-minute time frame, get a better view of the chart on a 5-minute time frame. I've entered a short position because it's evident that the price is in a downtrend, and it has broken below the established structure. This signals the potential for the entire trend to continue in this direction, with a target profit (TP) set at 1.22626.
