An order flow leg shows us the PD array to trade from and the PD array to trade towards

The order flow leg has all 3 PD Arrays:

1) ๐‘†๐‘ค๐‘–๐‘›๐‘” ๐‘ƒ๐‘œ๐‘–๐‘›๐‘ก๐‘ 
2) ๐น๐‘Ž๐‘–๐‘Ÿ ๐‘‰๐‘Ž๐‘™๐‘ข๐‘’ ๐บ๐‘Ž๐‘
3) ๐น๐‘Ž๐‘–๐‘Ÿ ๐‘‰๐‘Ž๐‘™๐‘ข๐‘’ ๐ด๐‘Ÿ๐‘’๐‘Ž

Price could retrace to any of the PD arrays in the order flow leg. ๐‡๐จ๐ฐ๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ, ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐›๐š๐›๐ข๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐ž๐š๐œ๐ก ๐๐ƒ ๐š๐ซ๐ซ๐š๐ฒ ๐๐ข๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ

Our job is to find the PD array with a higher probability to trade from in the order flow leg so that the odds for profitability are in our favor

To find the highest probability narrative, let us discuss the three lines of defense๐Ÿ›ก๏ธImage

When the FLOD is a Fair Value Area (FVA), it has a lower probability than an FVG as we can see in the picture that there is a recent bullish momentum going against usโ›”Image

The highest probability scenario to trade from the OD is when it is a Fair Value Area because price has no reason to retrace above the FVA as they have already been offered fair valueโœ…

A Fair Value Gap as OD is a probable narrative compared to the FVAโ›”

Remember, we want to identify the highest probable scenario to remain profitable in the long runImage

We do not expect to use LLOD for narrative. we use them as the PD array to trade towards (direction)

We could still use LLOD if there is no FVG in the leg. With no FVG, there is no order flow leg

So the swing point becomes the only line of defense to trade off of.Image

The Simplest Way to Never Miss an Entry. Understand Breakaway Gaps.

A Thread ๐Ÿงต Image
There are 2 types of Breakaway Gaps, the first one is Simple Breakaway Gaps, these are fairly easy to spot.Image
The second type is Sneaky Breakaway Gaps. They will look like normal FVGs, but price will go higher without retracing into them.Image

MMT ESSENTIALS : LIQUIDITY SWEEPS

Trading Turtle Soups๐Ÿข

A Thread๐Ÿงต Image
When you or I press the โ€˜BUYโ€™ button in any financial market, there will always be a willing โ€˜ SELLERโ€™ to match our order. However, that is not the case for larger entities.

Huge players canโ€™t just โ€˜BUYโ€™ and โ€˜SELLโ€™ as they need opposite orders on the other end to match their order.

That is why liquidity sweeps or turtle soups occur in the market.
Liquidity sweep happens when price trades above/below a swing high/low and aggressively displaces in the opposite direction.

In this example, we can see that the swing low was taken first. At this moment, trend trades tend to place sell orders with their stop loss near the recent swing high.

These stop-loss orders are โ€˜BUYโ€™ orders to protect the short positions of trend traders.

We just want to predict what the next candle does; the fewer the number of candles we predict, the greater the accuracy.Image
An entire Order Flow leg in the lower timeframe can be depicted by a single candle in the higher timeframe

In this example, we can see Bullish Order Flow which is followed by Bearish Order Flow Image
