So we establish the range, we can see that there are a couple of MSB's to the upside that set us up for an uptrend in price
A bullish order block / supply is hit, where price runs up to another MSB, which really confirms our bias for the next move
Then we can ask ourselves where is the liquidity that price is likely to be drawn to?
My feeling was that the recent range highs hadn't been run yet, so a good initial target resides there.
Resistance lives in the form of 5M bearish orderblock / supply as shown
Entry shown per the below for the set up.
SL placed lower than the '1' level on the fib in case of some sudden price moves in this LTF
Another target outside of the 5M supply is the FVG on the 15M timeframe (5M chart shown here)
But I'm aiming for the order block only
Entry made based on a limit order, and the idea about the run on entry in the LTF plays out in our favour
Target was hit and profits taken (P&L taken just before close)
Post trade:
FVG was run well and truly. Could've, should've, would've held to the FVG, but my plan was to stick with the orderblock as shown.
Stick with your plan, but don't always be a robot
Note also that the 21 & 50 EMA's were in our favour for entry also
Conclusion
Take the time to set up your trade, identify the trend either through PA or EMA's, the target, & then stick with a plan, whether it be full profit take, or partials up to a level.
Hopefully this helps you out - stay hungry, and say hi to the old chook for me
Cheers

We have a Fair Value Gap that is presented to us in the form of a bullish $500 candle, where a portion of the candle's body has no exploratory wick or body from another immediate candle to balance price.
Liquidity
Note the liquidity in the form of buyside liquidity has been claimed also from the range high already.
We'd typically expect that with a range, that we alternate between range high and low for liquidity.
I wanted to share this with you to show how a narrative can be built.
You know the drill, you can use this across #cryptocurrencies or any market, from $BTC, $ETH, $SOL $OMG $DOGE, hell, even $SHIB (shameless tags!)
Let's take a look:
The first key item to be drawn to here is the double bottom at range low.
Traders place their stops just below these levels, assuming that price will rise, which creates a liquidity pool which is subsequently taken out for a move upwards.
We can then see just above mid range, that a Fair Value Gap is apparent, even though price has traded close to filling this area.
I wanted to share this $ZIL trade with you so that you can hopefully learn some fundamental Price Action concepts
Here we'll explore:
- The Range
- FVG
- nPOC
- MSB
- Entry
- Psychology
Use these methods on $BTC any #cryptocurrency from $ETH, $SOL, $MATIC, $FTM $SHIB
Range:
I started off with drawing the range
You can see the notations on the drawings. Basically, I'm looking for the market structure before the sell off, and then the wicked candle that shows a liquidity tap that we assume will be run
FVG:
Then we're looking for a FVG, Fair Value Gap, where price trades through an area very quickly, leaving a 'gap' that opposite trending PA will 'fill'.
