If you trade S&R and still miss explosive moves this is why.
Let’s fix that.

A mini-guide on how to use Premium, Discount, and Ranges the right way

A thread 🧵👇🏽 Image
Join my telegram community here where I share my trade directional bias :

t.me/HillcityCBISnR…
Most traders mark S&R but ignore the range behind it.

Every move big or small starts from a range.
That’s where institutions build positions, not after the breakout.

If you can read a range right, you’ll know where the move will likely begin. Image
Image
Think of the range as a loading zone.
Within it, price oscillates between a discount (cheap) and premium (expensive) level.

Smart money buys at discount, sells at premium.
Noobs does the opposite chasing every breakout that fails. Image
Image
When you mark S&R, always ask:
“Am I in premium or discount?”

•If price is near resistance inside a premium zone, it’s a sell zone.

•If price is near support inside a discount zone, it’s a buy zone.
Simple. But that context changes everything. Image
Image
They trap most S&R traders fall into:
They buy every support and sell every resistance…
without checking where that level sits in the range.

A support in premium isn’t support, it’s a setup to get trapped.

As much as direction is impossible where you are is as well. Image
Here’s the formula:
👉 Identify the range.
👉 Split it in half (equilibrium).
👉 Wait for price to trade into premium (sell setups) or discount (buy setups).
👉 Then align with your S&R zone and structure.

That’s how you catch the move before it explodes. Image
S&R + Premium/Discount + Range = Precision.
Once you start combining these, you’ll stop forcing trades.

You’ll know when price is loading up… and when it’s ready to run.
You don’t need to catch every move.
You just need to catch the right side of one.
And it all starts from understanding where you are in the range.

Stop chasing breakouts master HTF ranges and catch the move before it explodes.

Most traders get excited after the move happens.
Smart traders position before it starts.
Here’s how 👇🏽 Image
Every move starts in a box.
Before price trends, it consolidates engineering liquidity, resting orders, and setting traps.
Most most of us ignore what’s most important “Range” where the market decides its next direction.

Your job is to wait patiently for the buildup. Image
Every storyline starts with a range
CRT - candle range theory is a range concept yet many limit range to a single candle never.
Also, every structure you mark is a range.
This is why range is important.

SnR Confirmation Entries

How to stop guessing and start timing your trades with precision.

You’ve marked your levels perfectly…
Price taps it, you enter, and boom it fakes you out.

Let’s fix that 👇🏽

A Thread 🧵 Image
Confirmation isn’t “I saw a candle, so I jumped in.”

It’s patience.
It’s waiting for proof that your level truly matters.

Your SnR is just an area of interest (AOI)

Your confirmation is the market saying,
“Yes, I respect this level.”
Start with the Engulfing Candle.
An engulfing candle is your first real sign of power shift, it’s not every-time you’ll see a breakout on one timeframe lower, but most times engulfing candles on your AOI are breakouts in disguise. Image

Ever nailed your SnR levels… and still got stopped out?

Yeah, same here until I learned this:

Two Powerful Ways to Frame Your Bias Using SnR

→ How internal vs external liquidity shifts your entire bias 👇🏽🧵 Image
Image
Price moves from Internal Range Liquidity → External Range Liquidity and vice versa.

CRT (Candle range theory) by Romeo suggests the principle of laying context on HTF.

I don’t know much about this concept but this helped me understand liquidity grab on HTF.
Here’s the trick:
If price is sweeping internal liquidity… it’s likely preparing to target the external.

Example:
→ Price forms equal highs inside a range
→ Sweeps that with a wick
→ Reclaims quickly
→ Bias flips long to target external range low Image

Engulfing Candlesticks: The SnR Cheat Code

Most traders treat candlestick patterns like magic.
But the real power of engulfing lies in where they form not just the pattern.

Here’s how to use them properly with support & resistance 🧵

1min read✅💎 Image
What is an engulfing candle?
A strong reversal pattern where a candle fully “engulfs” the previous one.

Bullish Engulfing = sign of buying strength
Bearish Engulfing = sign of selling strength

But it’s meaningless… if it’s in the wrong spot.
The secret?

Location > Pattern
An engulfing candle at a key SnR zone = potential shift in control.
Without SnR context, it’s just noise.

Don’t trade the pattern. Trade the story behind it.

🧵 You think you’re trading SnR… but you’re ignoring the one thing that’s killing your entries.

FRESH vs UNFRESH levels.
No wonder your account can’t breathe.

Let’s break it down 👇 Image
Support and Resistance (SnR) is the first concept most traders learn.

But it’s also the most abused.
You keep drawing the same lines…
Entering at the same zones…

And wondering why price keeps violating them like they don’t exist.
Here’s the truth nobody told you:

Not all SnR levels are valid.
Not all supply/demand zones are meant to be traded.

The market remembers
But it only respects the levels that haven’t been used up.

You’ve heard ICT talk about it.
Romeo mentioned it too.
But you ignored it because it didn’t look flashy.

Time & Price.
The underrated truth behind precise entries, clean exits, and clarity in chaos.

Let’s break it down. Slowly. With sense. 🧵 Image
Image
Let’s be honest most traders are frustrated.

You’re not lazy.
You’ve watched enough SMC content to build your own course.
You’ve marked zones, drawn fibs, tweaked risk.

But something still doesn’t click.

Here’s why: you’re focused on WHERE, but blind to WHEN.
Trading isn’t just about price levels.
It’s about context.

What time did price reach that zone?
Was it during a session that matters?
Was there liquidity sitting above or below?

If you ignore the timing, the level will lie to you.
