#TRADINGTIPS

Two Session Up Close:

If we are in the middle of an intermediate or long term price swing based on what we would see on the HTF chart, this is the classic scenario

When we start approaching HTF opposing arrays, this profile is less likely to occur 🙅‍♂️

Two Session Down Close:

If we are in the middle of an intermediate or long term price swing based on what we would see on the HTF chart, this is the classic scenario.

When we start approaching HTF opposing arrays, this profile is less likely to occur 🙅‍♂️

AM Rally PM Reversal:

Price is yet to fulfill a completion of a bullish run, but very close to where we are presently there is a higher time frame premium PD array 🧲

The session will start off bullish until it hits the HTF PD array which causes the intraday market reversal↗️↘️

AM Decline PM Reversal:

Price is yet to fulfill a completion of a bearish run, but very close to where we are presently there is a HTF premium PD array🧲

The session will start off bearish until it hits the HTF PD array which causes the intraday market reversal↘️↗️

Consolidation AM Rally PM Decline:

If unsure of what the IOF of the current day is or where we are relative to Premium/Discount on Daily/4h, chances are we likely see this scenario

ESPECIALLY if there's no high/medium impact news expected during 10am or later in the day⛔️

Consolidation AM Decline PM Rally:

If unsure of what the IOF of the current day is or where we are relative to Premium/Discount on Daily/4h, chances are we likely see this scenario

ESPECIALLY if there's no high/medium impact news expected during 10am or later in the day⛔️

EXTRA CONSOLIDATION TIPS💡:

How to know if the PM session will run lunch or Intraday highs?🤔

HTF PD array hit in AM session = Lunch highs likely to be ran

HTF PD array NOT hit in AM session= PM session could run the intraday high, hit the HTF Premium array, and then reverse

This rule helps me avoid unnecessary losses

The “magnet theory” rule states that the higher the timeframe, the stronger the pull.

By the end of this thread, you’ll learn the reason behind A LOT of your losses

A thread🧵

Magnet theory rule states that the higher the timeframe, the stronger the pull.

HTF FVGs act like strong magnets, drawing price toward them with more force than LTF FVGs

If a HTF FVG exists above your current setup, then that setup is lower-probability.

So for example:

There is a Weekly -FVG created above a 4h -FVG. That 4h FVG becomes lower probability

or

There is a hourly +FVG created below a 5m FVG. That 5m FVG becomes lower probability

Price will prioritize the higher timeframe array.

‘Are we creating a new FVG on the timeframe above?’

You don’t go straight to the daily timeframe and use whatever orderflow you see there as context.

You do a top-down analysis first because Monthly and Weekly FVGs will be prioritized before Daily FVGs.

Ask yourself constantly: 'Are we creating a new FVG on the timeframe above my current setup?'

If the answer is yes, then your setup is low probability.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲…

An Impulse Shift is a clear footprint left by Smart Money when they flip the market's direction.

By the end of this thread, you’ll know how to spot it!

A thread🧵

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗻 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝘂𝗹𝘀𝗲 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁?

It's a powerful, V-shaped reversal that occurs at a HTF level (your Context).

You're looking for a V-shaped displacement away from that key level. The Fair Value Gap created during this sharp move is the Impulse Shift.

𝗦𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗳𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝘂𝗹𝘀𝗲 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁

The best case scenario for an impulse shift is when price does this:

1. FVG In: Price creates an FVG into the HTF level, luring traders into the "obvious" trend.
2. FVG Out: Price then displaces sharply away from the level, creating a new FVG and trapping those traders.

Price disrespects the orderflow by making an impulse opposite to the current orderflow. Hence the name, impulse shift.

This is the best way to trade a FVG which failed to expand higher

It's called the “Pivot Context”, and it opens up an alternative way to frame trades

A thread 🧵

Before we proceed, you need to know about swing points.

There are two types of swing points:

1. 𝗦𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵: A 3-candle pattern forming an inverted V. Buyside liquidity rests above it.
2. 𝗦𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗟𝗼𝘄: A 3-candle pattern forming a V. Sellside liquidity rests below it.

Swing points are important because these are where we find resting liquidities that acts as a magnet for price.

Pivot Context is the move from 𝗦𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗣𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁 → 𝗦𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗣𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁.

It's a continuation pattern. Price takes liquidity at an external range (a swing high/low) and then aggressively seeks the opposing external range liquidity.

It's a hunt for stops, followed by a reversal

There are only two types of price legs: the ones that hold… and the ones that retrace.

Let me oversimplify ‘High-probability Price Legs’ 🧵👇

What's a Price Leg?

Simply, a swing high and a swing low.

But what makes a price leg 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵-𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆?

First, its the presence of a Fair Value Gap in that leg💎

Second, magnet theory.

Having a price leg in context of the timeframe above it makes it higher probability.

This means that above the timeframe you’re looking at, there are no FVGs to pull price higher or lower relative to the high-probability leg.

This is also why you should do a top-down analysis and start in the monthly first, looking at the most recent leg, going to the weekly, the daily, and the 4h.

This aligns you with the HTF orderflow of price.

OVERSIMPLIFIED: Fair Value Gaps

Beginners, this oversimplified series is for you🫵

Your eyes will be opened on how powerful fair value gaps are and how to pick the right ones.

A mini-thread🧵

What is a Fair Value Gap?

There are two types of fair value gaps:

1. Bullish Fair Value Gaps
2. Bearish Fair Value Gaps

Both are a three-candle pattern, wherein the fair value gap is the gap between the first and third candles.

High-probability Fair Value Gaps

The best fair value gaps are created from previous fair value gaps.

Price respecting a fair value gap means we are in confirmed orderflow. Simply put, the trend is extremely strong and can be trusted to continue in that same direction.

Your FVGs don’t work because you’re NOT trading within a killzone.

After reading this thread, you’ll know EXACTLY how killzones affect your trading.

A thread🧵

What is a “killzone”?

Killzone are specific times during the trading day where volatility is typically higher.

Volatility brings energy into the market creating high probability FVGs that we can trade off of.

This volatility will always be ideal for scalpers and intraday traders.

Killzones are typically aligned with Red Folder News releases.

This brings in the volatility needed for the price to seek liquidity or rebalance an imbalance.

Personally, I focus on the New York session, which is 8:30 AM to 12:00 PM EST.

You can also use 2:00 AM - 5:00 AM for the London session and 8:00 PM - 12:00 AM for the Asian session.
