2 |1 |00:00:34 ~-~-> 00:00:41 |ICT: Folks, welcome back. Today is Thursday, May 1. 2025, the months and
3 |2 |00:00:41 ~-~-> 00:00:46 |weeks and days keep rolling by 2025. Is really, you know, hard to get done in
4 |3 |00:00:46 ~-~-> 00:00:52 |it. So let's take a look at today's action on NASDAQ. Obviously we can see
5 |4 |00:00:52 ~-~-> 00:00:54 |here we have a virgin chart with a rather handsome young man in the
6 |5 |00:00:54 ~-~-> 00:00:59 |background, keeping his eye on you. Okay, he's keeping his eye on you. So we
7 |6 |00:00:59 ~-~-> 00:01:04 |added the lipstick I went over last night before I go through this. If you
8 |7 |00:01:04 ~-~-> 00:01:09 |have not watched the April 30, 2025, video that was uploaded prior to this
9 |8 |00:01:09 ~-~-> 00:01:15 |one, stop this video and go watch that. Okay, because everything I'm going to
10 |9 |00:01:15 ~-~-> 00:01:19 |talk about here, otherwise it's going to seem like I'm talking about it in
11 |10 |00:01:19 ~-~-> 00:01:24 |hindsight, and see how smart I am, because it already happened. Okay, so I
12 |11 |00:01:24 ~-~-> 00:01:34 |warned you all right. So here we have the daily chart, and I went through the
13 |12 |00:01:37 ~-~-> 00:01:43 |specifics with this specific candles wick. And I went through all the levels
14 |13 |00:01:43 ~-~-> 00:01:47 |here, lower quadrant, consequent encroachment level, upper quadrant, the
15 |14 |00:01:47 ~-~-> 00:01:53 |high and then this volume imbalance. Now, the level that I did not put in, at
16 |15 |00:01:53 ~-~-> 00:02:02 |least by memory, if I did great. But I think I don't have a mention of this Wix
17 |16 |00:02:02 ~-~-> 00:02:08 |consequent encroachment, but this is also something else watching. So I
18 |17 |00:02:08 ~-~-> 00:02:12 |intended to mention it last night in the video, but I don't know if it was there,
19 |18 |00:02:12 ~-~-> 00:02:17 |so just be mindful that that is probably the only thing that is not in last
20 |19 |00:02:17 ~-~-> 00:02:21 |night's video. All right, so I hope you'll permit me that. But the main
21 |20 |00:02:21 ~-~-> 00:02:26 |focus was when this candlestick was a little bit bearish, it had a little bit
22 |21 |00:02:26 ~-~-> 00:02:30 |of a wick, you rejection off that it was sitting right about in here, and no up
23 |22 |00:02:30 ~-~-> 00:02:37 |movement like that yet. And certainly today here we're on a new day. So I
24 |23 |00:02:37 ~-~-> 00:02:41 |mentioned that during Thursday, in the Friday Non Farm Payroll, that it would
25 |24 |00:02:41 ~-~-> 00:02:44 |likely reach up into at the very minimum, I know I call it this level
26 |25 |00:02:44 ~-~-> 00:02:51 |here, and take out that high of that wick on April 2. So just be mindful of
27 |26 |00:02:51 ~-~-> 00:02:58 |the red line here at 19,008 22.50 that is the consequent encroachment level of
28 |27 |00:02:58 ~-~-> 00:03:04 |this daily candles wick. Okay? Because I teach you to treat the wicks of
29 |28 |00:03:04 ~-~-> 00:03:11 |candlesticks as gaps, and you can grade those levels as we have here, and you'll
30 |29 |00:03:11 ~-~-> 00:03:16 |see the importance of it as we drop in lower time frame. So this blue line here
31 |30 |00:03:16 ~-~-> 00:03:20 |is the consequent curtain of this candlesticks wick. So just like we did
32 |31 |00:03:20 ~-~-> 00:03:24 |this last night. This is being highlighted for tonight as well. You can
33 |32 |00:03:24 ~-~-> 00:03:28 |see how close we got to it there, and it just went a couple handles above it, and
34 |33 |00:03:28 ~-~-> 00:03:36 |then create the high the day. That's probably random. All right, so we're
35 |34 |00:03:36 ~-~-> 00:03:40 |looking at the daily chart zoomed in a little bit more. And again, I want you
36 |35 |00:03:40 ~-~-> 00:03:45 |to just appreciate that draw up into that Wix consequent encroachment level,
37 |36 |00:03:45 ~-~-> 00:03:50 |and how we deliver it into that volume imbalance rather handsomely. This is
38 |37 |00:03:50 ~-~-> 00:03:56 |what the close of the day. You can see that hyphen here that delineates that
39 |38 |00:03:57 ~-~-> 00:04:02 |separation from active trading hours to now it's not active, so I'll wait until
40 |39 |00:04:02 ~-~-> 00:04:06 |six o'clock. You can see, well, not six o'clock, I wait till after five o'clock,
41 |40 |00:04:06 ~-~-> 00:04:10 |before the 6pm restart. You can see the time when the screenshot was taken here.
42 |41 |00:04:12 ~-~-> 00:04:15 |All right, dropping down into a one minute chart. Get this thing done rather
43 |42 |00:04:15 ~-~-> 00:04:18 |quickly. I don't want to spend too much time with it, because I'm going into a
44 |43 |00:04:18 ~-~-> 00:04:22 |three day weekend nonprofit payroll tomorrow. I'm not interested. I will not
45 |44 |00:04:22 ~-~-> 00:04:28 |be active on Twitter, X, Telegram, anything. Okay, I will have a shotgun
46 |45 |00:04:28 ~-~-> 00:04:35 |Saturday on next Saturday morning sometime. So you have to watch on X to
47 |46 |00:04:35 ~-~-> 00:04:41 |see when that'll be so be mindful this low here, all right, so that's the
48 |47 |00:04:41 ~-~-> 00:04:45 |London low, so south side is going to be below that. Now, contrast this with what
49 |48 |00:04:45 ~-~-> 00:04:48 |I mentioned last night. I was telling you that I was personally bullish, not
50 |49 |00:04:48 ~-~-> 00:04:52 |that you should be bullish, not that you should be treating with anything I'm
51 |50 |00:04:52 ~-~-> 00:04:55 |saying here. This is just my opinion. Okay, 33 years of worrying about these
52 |51 |00:04:55 ~-~-> 00:05:00 |candlesticks going to specific levels and then watching them deliver you. You
53 |52 |00:05:00 ~-~-> 00:05:05 |are here just to borrow my experience, okay, but I teach you, and taught you
54 |53 |00:05:06 ~-~-> 00:05:11 |that the liquidity in the London session, if it's below old lows, when
55 |54 |00:05:11 ~-~-> 00:05:15 |you're bullish, it could reach down there. And this is what I have
56 |55 |00:05:15 ~-~-> 00:05:21 |highlighted here. Okay, so at 19,009 zero, 1.25 that sell side. Here's a
57 |56 |00:05:21 ~-~-> 00:05:26 |minor buy side liquidity pool. You'll hear this mentioned a few times in this
58 |57 |00:05:26 ~-~-> 00:05:31 |presentation, but also you'll see that I mentioned this actually on x this
59 |58 |00:05:31 ~-~-> 00:05:36 |morning. And if I'm not mistaken, I think it was around 947 you can see that
60 |59 |00:05:37 ~-~-> 00:05:41 |post where I outlined that the inversion fair value gap, which I'll show you in a
61 |60 |00:05:41 ~-~-> 00:05:44 |second, which is the first presented fair value gap of the morning opening
62 |61 |00:05:44 ~-~-> 00:05:49 |range between 930 and 10 o'clock Eastern time, that it would be used as an
63 |62 |00:05:49 ~-~-> 00:05:55 |inversion fair value gap and take us up into buy side at 19,009 9625, now that
64 |63 |00:05:55 ~-~-> 00:06:02 |is the opening range. Me pointing out specifically there. But going back to
65 |64 |00:06:02 ~-~-> 00:06:08 |what I gave you in the YouTube channel review yesterday, before the market
66 |65 |00:06:08 ~-~-> 00:06:12 |closed, before it rallied up extremely high, all that was given to you before
67 |66 |00:06:12 ~-~-> 00:06:16 |it actually happened. So the higher Time Frame is bullish. That's what I was
68 |67 |00:06:16 ~-~-> 00:06:18 |looking for. I was not looking for shorts. I was not looking for selling
69 |68 |00:06:18 ~-~-> 00:06:22 |and going into discount arrays. I'm looking for it to go into this kind of
70 |69 |00:06:22 ~-~-> 00:06:27 |raise, just to go higher and fulfill what I outlined last night for April 30,
71 |70 |00:06:27 ~-~-> 00:06:32 |2025 commentary on YouTube. All right. So just be mindful that. And then we
72 |71 |00:06:32 ~-~-> 00:06:38 |have April 2, 2025 daily premium wick high. So this level here is on the daily
73 |72 |00:06:38 ~-~-> 00:06:42 |chart, that high, that wick. That's what this is. This is that volume imbalance
74 |73 |00:06:42 ~-~-> 00:06:47 |just above it. Okay, I'm going to ring in this level up here, which is that
75 |74 |00:06:48 ~-~-> 00:06:53 |consequent encroachment of the premium width just above the volume imbalance I
76 |75 |00:06:53 ~-~-> 00:06:59 |mentioned at the beginning of this video. All right, so here's the one
77 |76 |00:06:59 ~-~-> 00:07:02 |minute chart. You can see that that sell side liquidity pool here I'm
78 |77 |00:07:02 ~-~-> 00:07:07 |highlighting at 90,009 zero, 1.25 that is London's low overnight, around three
79 |78 |00:07:07 ~-~-> 00:07:14 |o'clock in the morning. And there's that buy side again, at 19,009 96.25 and
80 |79 |00:07:14 ~-~-> 00:07:17 |here's the first presented fair value gap. And I already highlighted it in
81 |80 |00:07:17 ~-~-> 00:07:23 |orange, as I usually do, didn't denoting that that is going to be treated as not
82 |81 |00:07:23 ~-~-> 00:07:27 |a sell, side imbalanced by side, efficiency to go shorten. Remember last
83 |82 |00:07:27 ~-~-> 00:07:33 |night's bias bullish and at 947 I think right about in here, I tweeted and said
84 |83 |00:07:33 ~-~-> 00:07:40 |that we would see this very gap right there at 938 one minute candle, and I
85 |84 |00:07:40 ~-~-> 00:07:44 |probably should have added that, anchoring it into this, but you can find
86 |85 |00:07:44 ~-~-> 00:07:51 |it on x. It is what it is, but the the draw on liquidity would be here, but not
87 |86 |00:07:51 ~-~-> 00:07:56 |before treating that gap as an inversion for Vega. But we had 10 o'clock news. So
88 |87 |00:07:56 ~-~-> 00:08:01 |at 10am we had ISM manufacturing PMI number. You can find that on forex
89 |88 |00:08:01 ~-~-> 00:08:04 |factories calendar. You can find it on the corona days calendar. Any reputable
90 |89 |00:08:05 ~-~-> 00:08:08 |economic calendar will tell you what medium impact or high impact. It was a
91 |90 |00:08:08 ~-~-> 00:08:12 |high impact news driver at 10 o'clock. So you have to wait for that news to
92 |91 |00:08:12 ~-~-> 00:08:18 |deliver. So it went up there, stopped short of running that high came down,
93 |92 |00:08:18 ~-~-> 00:08:23 |took out the sell side here, and one more time sweeping below that. 3am
94 |93 |00:08:24 ~-~-> 00:08:27 |london session, sell side liquidity pool. Why would they want to go down
95 |94 |00:08:27 ~-~-> 00:08:31 |here? Because they're going to pick up all these orders down here that are
96 |95 |00:08:31 ~-~-> 00:08:37 |resting to go short on a breakout or to protect a long position. So either way,
97 |96 |00:08:37 ~-~-> 00:08:42 |sell side or sell stops, sell orders, pending orders to be a short seller
98 |97 |00:08:44 ~-~-> 00:08:49 |or resting below that level. So the algorithm drops down there, to
99 |98 |00:08:49 ~-~-> 00:08:55 |accumulate here, all through here and here, and then after 10 o'clock, it
100 |99 |00:08:55 ~-~-> 00:09:00 |rallies higher, and then goes above that 938, first presented fair value gap
101 |100 |00:09:00 ~-~-> 00:09:06 |here, it trades above. It then comes back down in. It does not notice this
102 |101 |00:09:06 ~-~-> 00:09:09 |here. It does not break that load. It comes right in here. Look at the body.
103 |102 |00:09:09 ~-~-> 00:09:14 |So what is it doing? It's validating this as an inversion fair value gap
104 |103 |00:09:14 ~-~-> 00:09:22 |after that news driver. So because that new driver was a volatility injection.
105 |104 |00:09:22 ~-~-> 00:09:27 |We have to be careful, because it's a Thursday before Non Farm Payroll. It
106 |105 |00:09:27 ~-~-> 00:09:31 |could, it could do all kinds of things and mess up, you know, your analysis,
107 |106 |00:09:31 ~-~-> 00:09:35 |your trade. It could hurt you. So that's why I tell you, if you're not a, you
108 |107 |00:09:35 ~-~-> 00:09:37 |know, a seasoned veteran in terms of what I teach and been around for a
109 |108 |00:09:37 ~-~-> 00:09:40 |while, or know how to trade and been trading for a long time, you probably
110 |109 |00:09:40 ~-~-> 00:09:42 |shouldn't be trading on Thursday and Friday Non Farm Payroll at all.
111 |110 |00:09:42 ~-~-> 00:09:46 |Nonprofit payroll at all, but it comes down and validates it by not going into
112 |111 |00:09:46 ~-~-> 00:09:49 |the lower half, or even in this case, consequent encroachment, and then
113 |112 |00:09:49 ~-~-> 00:09:53 |rallies that was, to me, confirmation that, okay, it validated it. So now I
114 |113 |00:09:53 ~-~-> 00:09:57 |got to find an entry, because if I think that it's going to trade up in the net
115 |114 |00:09:57 ~-~-> 00:10:01 |volume imbalance and best case scenario, what would the. Best case scenario be as
116 |115 |00:10:01 ~-~-> 00:10:06 |an exit. If you're trying to get long using this inversion fair value gap down
117 |116 |00:10:06 ~-~-> 00:10:09 |here, and you're aiming for the volume imbalance on the daily chart, which is
118 |117 |00:10:09 ~-~-> 00:10:13 |shaded in that red area here, as you can see, March 27 2025 daily volume
119 |118 |00:10:13 ~-~-> 00:10:18 |imbalance. Okay, so just remember, look at the first portion of the video where
120 |119 |00:10:18 ~-~-> 00:10:20 |I was showing you the daily chart with the lipstick on it. The best case
121 |120 |00:10:20 ~-~-> 00:10:24 |scenario exit would be at the high that volume imbalance, right? Wouldn't you
122 |121 |00:10:24 ~-~-> 00:10:29 |agree? So aiming for an entry at the first presenter fair value gap, which is
123 |122 |00:10:29 ~-~-> 00:10:36 |going to become a inversion fair value gap, and then rally up to first pool of
124 |123 |00:10:36 ~-~-> 00:10:42 |liquidity. Is this 19,009 nine, 6.25 so that's a low hanging fruit objective,
125 |124 |00:10:42 ~-~-> 00:10:49 |very, very easy. And 2030, handles obviously, would be warranted as a first
126 |125 |00:10:49 ~-~-> 00:10:54 |potential profit scaling out. And also, in keeping with what did I give you this
127 |126 |00:10:54 ~-~-> 00:11:02 |week as a a challenge mission, possible, 30 handles in the morning, 20 handles in
128 |127 |00:11:02 ~-~-> 00:11:06 |the afternoon. So because I got things to do, places to be, people to see and
129 |128 |00:11:06 ~-~-> 00:11:09 |I'm going to have a three weekend, I'm just going to just crush it today and
130 |129 |00:11:09 ~-~-> 00:11:14 |just do what I'm showing you here, you will be able to see on X me closing the
131 |130 |00:11:14 ~-~-> 00:11:18 |trade when it hits the limit order with what I'm about to show you. But my entry
132 |131 |00:11:18 ~-~-> 00:11:21 |strategy, let me show you what that is okay, because you don't have to always
133 |132 |00:11:21 ~-~-> 00:11:26 |get into the trade at the PD array that you're looking for. You're going to miss
134 |133 |00:11:26 ~-~-> 00:11:29 |entry sometimes, folks, that's the reality of all this. You're not going to
135 |134 |00:11:29 ~-~-> 00:11:33 |get your best entry every single time. You could be watching the chart, you
136 |135 |00:11:33 ~-~-> 00:11:39 |could be dialed in zero distractions, and you simply do not get in. What do
137 |136 |00:11:39 ~-~-> 00:11:44 |you do in that case? Well, in my case, because I have 81 ways, and you can
138 |137 |00:11:44 ~-~-> 00:11:49 |times that by two to get into something or out of something as a trade, I have a
139 |138 |00:11:50 ~-~-> 00:11:54 |plethora of dandy little tools and techniques and concepts that I've
140 |139 |00:11:54 ~-~-> 00:11:59 |authored that no one else can do as well in their hands as I'm doing with my
141 |140 |00:11:59 ~-~-> 00:12:03 |hands, because it's my stuff, so I'm teaching it to you, so that way you can
142 |141 |00:12:04 ~-~-> 00:12:08 |grow, hopefully, an affinity for one or two of them at most, in the beginning,
143 |142 |00:12:08 ~-~-> 00:12:11 |and just try to grow from that. But let's take a look at what it is that I
144 |143 |00:12:11 ~-~-> 00:12:16 |use to get into the trade. This candlestick right here, and I have an
145 |144 |00:12:16 ~-~-> 00:12:22 |error below and above the candlestick. I'm denoting that candlesticks open down
146 |145 |00:12:22 ~-~-> 00:12:27 |to its low that it's that is its discount wick. In other words, it's the
147 |146 |00:12:27 ~-~-> 00:12:32 |wick below the candlestick. We call them shadows or tails, and anything above as
148 |147 |00:12:32 ~-~-> 00:12:39 |a wick would be obviously the wick, okay, so denoting that midpoint or
149 |148 |00:12:39 ~-~-> 00:12:46 |consequent crochet of that lower portion of the candlestick that makes that wick,
150 |149 |00:12:46 ~-~-> 00:12:50 |or discount portion of the candlestick. That's this line right here, and I'm
151 |150 |00:12:50 ~-~-> 00:12:55 |projecting it in the future the next candle after that. We can see here. I'm
152 |151 |00:12:55 ~-~-> 00:12:58 |denoting it with that arrow here, and that arrow here, I'm doing the same
153 |152 |00:12:58 ~-~-> 00:13:04 |thing here, that wick I'm highlighting the midpoint. This is my gray pool.
154 |153 |00:13:04 ~-~-> 00:13:09 |Okay, you're not going to know what that stuff is or even what this is, unless
155 |154 |00:13:09 ~-~-> 00:13:13 |you learned it from me. Okay, there is absolutely no way you've heard that
156 |155 |00:13:13 ~-~-> 00:13:19 |anywhere else. But it's my concept. It's codified, coded and signed by good old
157 |156 |00:13:19 ~-~-> 00:13:25 |ICT, algorithmic gray pool, extend that in the future. Okay? And that is your
158 |157 |00:13:25 ~-~-> 00:13:29 |portion of where you can get in. Now I already know what you're thinking, wow,
159 |158 |00:13:29 ~-~-> 00:13:34 |that's that's really not anywhere close to the inversion fair value gap, or
160 |159 |00:13:34 ~-~-> 00:13:38 |first presented fair value gap. Isn't that chasing price? I'll get to that in
161 |160 |00:13:38 ~-~-> 00:13:41 |a moment, because I already know what you're thinking. But right now, I want
162 |161 |00:13:41 ~-~-> 00:13:45 |you to take a look at the x the entry. Okay, here's the entry, and look real,
163 |162 |00:13:45 ~-~-> 00:13:49 |real close right there. You'll see that that is me getting in at the low of the
164 |163 |00:13:49 ~-~-> 00:13:55 |gray pool. Okay, and now I'm going to show you up here. Me getting out the
165 |164 |00:13:55 ~-~-> 00:13:59 |trade right there. There's a little carrot symbol saying I'm getting out at
166 |165 |00:13:59 ~-~-> 00:14:04 |the high of the volume bounds in the daily chart, folks, that is as perfect
167 |166 |00:14:04 ~-~-> 00:14:08 |as you can get without getting in at the inversion fair value gap here, you're
168 |167 |00:14:09 ~-~-> 00:14:12 |not going to see anybody else do it like that, and you're never going to see
169 |168 |00:14:12 ~-~-> 00:14:15 |anybody else do it like that, because I have things that are going to help me be
170 |169 |00:14:16 ~-~-> 00:14:20 |light years beyond everybody else out there, but I could still be your Good
171 |170 |00:14:20 ~-~-> 00:14:23 |old friendly neighborhood mentor and teach you lots of things that will help
172 |171 |00:14:23 ~-~-> 00:14:29 |you get into trades like this, but your experience level may not give it to you
173 |172 |00:14:29 ~-~-> 00:14:32 |right away, and it'll frustrate you trying to trade with this measure of
174 |173 |00:14:32 ~-~-> 00:14:35 |precision. You don't need to be this perfect. You don't need to be this
175 |174 |00:14:35 ~-~-> 00:14:39 |precise to make money or consistently find trading setups or make money
176 |175 |00:14:39 ~-~-> 00:14:43 |drawing out a monthly income. You're going to take losing trades, you're
177 |176 |00:14:43 ~-~-> 00:14:47 |going to do it wrong. And when you see things like this, this is me just
178 |177 |00:14:47 ~-~-> 00:14:51 |basically putting a cherry on top this week, because, well, it's just for this
179 |178 |00:14:51 ~-~-> 00:14:56 |way. I really enjoy doing this. Okay? And unfortunately, this is the part that
180 |179 |00:14:56 ~-~-> 00:15:00 |makes it sound like I'm narcissistic, arrogant, whatever. And that's not. What
181 |180 |00:15:00 ~-~-> 00:15:04 |I'm trying to do here, I'm trying to be somewhat entertaining with folks that
182 |181 |00:15:04 ~-~-> 00:15:08 |have a sense of humor, also to kind of like rip those individuals that don't
183 |182 |00:15:08 ~-~-> 00:15:11 |think I know how to trade, or don't think I know what I'm doing, and because
184 |183 |00:15:11 ~-~-> 00:15:16 |I'm calling it in advance, the day before, the day before, and at 920 I'm
185 |184 |00:15:16 ~-~-> 00:15:22 |sorry, what is it? 947 today in here, I told you that this is going to be used
186 |185 |00:15:22 ~-~-> 00:15:26 |as an inversion fair value gap. Go up to here. And last night's analysis that is
187 |186 |00:15:26 ~-~-> 00:15:32 |going to go up to here and here, okay, but take it one step further. ICT, the
188 |187 |00:15:32 ~-~-> 00:15:37 |consequent encroachment of March 27 daily, candlesticks, wick, the premium
189 |188 |00:15:37 ~-~-> 00:15:42 |wick. That's what this level is here. So while I was watching it today, this
190 |189 |00:15:42 ~-~-> 00:15:47 |could have delivered or fell short of it. And if I was looking for that to
191 |190 |00:15:47 ~-~-> 00:15:53 |exit, I would have been probably disappointed. But in this case, you
192 |191 |00:15:53 ~-~-> 00:15:56 |can't get better than that, in the high the volume imbalance, and be content
193 |192 |00:15:56 ~-~-> 00:15:59 |with that and just watch it go to another level that I expected anyway.
194 |193 |00:16:00 ~-~-> 00:16:03 |Whether I mentioned it last night or not, it doesn't make a difference. You
195 |194 |00:16:03 ~-~-> 00:16:06 |did know about this portion here, but now, once it trades at that level, I'm
196 |195 |00:16:06 ~-~-> 00:16:10 |done for the week. I'm not interested in doing anything else. So in keeping with
197 |196 |00:16:10 ~-~-> 00:16:17 |what I taught in the last Saturday's x space, when we move away from the first
198 |197 |00:16:17 ~-~-> 00:16:20 |presented fair value gap, because it's doing two things here, acting as a
199 |198 |00:16:20 ~-~-> 00:16:24 |inversion fair value gap, which I told you it was going to act as way back
200 |199 |00:16:24 ~-~-> 00:16:29 |here. Okay, so before it delivered it and you can see on X, ask your friends
201 |200 |00:16:29 ~-~-> 00:16:34 |and neighbors if I ever delete or edit anything on x, because I don't. It goes
202 |201 |00:16:34 ~-~-> 00:16:38 |down through it for the purposes of upsetting the liquidity that's resting
203 |202 |00:16:38 ~-~-> 00:16:42 |below London's low and this load it formed, and then they rally it back up
204 |203 |00:16:42 ~-~-> 00:16:47 |into the inversion, fair value gap candidate. But does it offer that
205 |204 |00:16:47 ~-~-> 00:16:51 |validation? Nope. It goes in there, goes right back out. You have to wait. You
206 |205 |00:16:51 ~-~-> 00:16:56 |got to wait. And the market goes below that once more, and then rallies above
207 |206 |00:16:56 ~-~-> 00:17:02 |it, periods back down into it, and then runs away. That's validating it. That is
208 |207 |00:17:02 ~-~-> 00:17:06 |verifying that that is absolutely what I said. Is going to be at 9:47am Eastern
209 |208 |00:17:06 ~-~-> 00:17:11 |Standard Time. It was going to deliver this way. Now I have to find another way
210 |209 |00:17:11 ~-~-> 00:17:14 |of getting in. Now let's say you didn't want to use a grade pool. Maybe you
211 |210 |00:17:14 ~-~-> 00:17:18 |don't understand it. You don't want to touch it. It's complicated. It's
212 |211 |00:17:18 ~-~-> 00:17:22 |complex. You're making it difficult. ICT, okay, well, I'm teaching technical
213 |212 |00:17:22 ~-~-> 00:17:27 |science. If you want to do simple stuff, you can do my immediate rebalance, which
214 |213 |00:17:27 ~-~-> 00:17:30 |is this candle sticks high, it rallies through it here, and then the next
215 |214 |00:17:30 ~-~-> 00:17:34 |candle opens trades right back down. That candle is high. That's an immediate
216 |215 |00:17:34 ~-~-> 00:17:38 |rebalance. And the next candle, or the next candle after that price, will start
217 |216 |00:17:38 ~-~-> 00:17:41 |running. That's the rules. If you are in my mentorship. If you watch my
218 |217 |00:17:41 ~-~-> 00:17:46 |mentorship content that you can see right on YouTube for free, okay, I
219 |218 |00:17:46 ~-~-> 00:17:49 |uploaded everything to all different playlists. Just go through the playlist
220 |219 |00:17:49 ~-~-> 00:17:53 |all the videos that's on there. It's absolutely my gift to you as a community
221 |220 |00:17:53 ~-~-> 00:18:00 |in trading that rule of immediate rebalance. It sees price rip higher, and
222 |221 |00:18:00 ~-~-> 00:18:03 |it goes right to that pool of liquidity as a very low hanging fruit objective in
223 |222 |00:18:03 ~-~-> 00:18:07 |and of itself, that right there is enough to be content if you're a brand
224 |223 |00:18:07 ~-~-> 00:18:10 |new student, new trader looking for a way to find setups. I'm literally laying
225 |224 |00:18:10 ~-~-> 00:18:14 |out there on a silver platter. But you have to determine what you're going to
226 |225 |00:18:14 ~-~-> 00:18:19 |use as your model. You could have used these two consecutive down closed
227 |226 |00:18:19 ~-~-> 00:18:24 |candles here as my bull shoulder block and right there, and there it gets you
228 |227 |00:18:24 ~-~-> 00:18:25 |an entry.
229 |228 |00:18:26 ~-~-> 00:18:30 |So it's not a matter of, oh, you know, this is too many things to worry about.
230 |229 |00:18:30 ~-~-> 00:18:35 |It's not. It's just, what are you comfortable with trading with? And there
231 |230 |00:18:35 ~-~-> 00:18:39 |may be a PD array that you like that didn't provide you an entry for this
232 |231 |00:18:39 ~-~-> 00:18:43 |setup. It doesn't mean the concepts don't work as I mean you won't be
233 |232 |00:18:43 ~-~-> 00:18:46 |consistently profitable in the future. It just means that your model, your PDA
234 |233 |00:18:46 ~-~-> 00:18:51 |rate, didn't, didn't give it to you on this run, and because it's not far
235 |234 |00:18:51 ~-~-> 00:18:55 |payroll Thursday, you shouldn't have any worry about that. Should be no sweat, no
236 |235 |00:18:55 ~-~-> 00:18:58 |problem. Next, next week, not next, tomorrow, Friday. It's a day that you
237 |236 |00:18:58 ~-~-> 00:19:02 |shouldn't be trading for your brand new trader. It's a carnival ride at 830
238 |237 |00:19:02 ~-~-> 00:19:05 |tomorrow morning. Carnival Ride at 830 tomorrow morning, Eastern Time, it's
239 |238 |00:19:05 ~-~-> 00:19:08 |going to go crazy all over the place. And it's better if you're not there, if
240 |239 |00:19:08 ~-~-> 00:19:13 |you're not skilled or, I guess, experienced. But now that first percent
241 |240 |00:19:13 ~-~-> 00:19:18 |is very bad gap, because we completed the weekly objective, my weekly
242 |241 |00:19:18 ~-~-> 00:19:20 |objective, price has already booked what it should have done. Then it's
243 |242 |00:19:20 ~-~-> 00:19:25 |reasonable for price to do what? Start seeking discount arrays. Well, that
244 |243 |00:19:25 ~-~-> 00:19:30 |would be starting in here, midpoint, consequent crochet of the daily volume
245 |244 |00:19:30 ~-~-> 00:19:33 |and balance, then the low of the daily volume imbalance and the high of that
246 |245 |00:19:33 ~-~-> 00:19:38 |April 2, daily premium wick high. And then if it goes below that, what can we
247 |246 |00:19:38 ~-~-> 00:19:43 |trade for back down in the first part? That's a very bad guy. Yeah. Going to
248 |247 |00:19:43 ~-~-> 00:19:51 |extend this here in time, and I'm also going to show you that, for those that
249 |248 |00:19:51 ~-~-> 00:19:56 |were wanting, is this chasing price? No, it's still in a discount. Because if I'm
250 |249 |00:19:56 ~-~-> 00:20:02 |looking for, as I mentioned, in 947 one minute. Uh Eastern Time, or one Eastern
251 |250 |00:20:02 ~-~-> 00:20:08 |Time, uh, 937 eastern time today on X that I would be using or looking for,
252 |251 |00:20:08 ~-~-> 00:20:14 |this 938 candle to act as an inversion fair value gap. It's the first presented
253 |252 |00:20:14 ~-~-> 00:20:22 |fair value gap of the 930 to 10 o'clock opening range, which is 30 minutes, if
254 |253 |00:20:22 ~-~-> 00:20:25 |I'm aiming to look for the setup here. And I believe that the high of that
255 |254 |00:20:25 ~-~-> 00:20:29 |volume and balance on a daily chart is my draw on liquidity, the perfect
256 |255 |00:20:29 ~-~-> 00:20:33 |Terminus exit for me. So I'm going to frame the entry off of the inversion
257 |256 |00:20:33 ~-~-> 00:20:36 |fair value gap here. Draw the FIB up to that high of the volume and balance, the
258 |257 |00:20:37 ~-~-> 00:20:41 |50% level of that range is here. So everything above that line is a premium,
259 |258 |00:20:42 ~-~-> 00:20:46 |anything below that line is a discount. So when I'm entering here inside this
260 |259 |00:20:46 ~-~-> 00:20:53 |gray pool, am I entering at a premium? No. So again, there's a lot of people
261 |260 |00:20:53 ~-~-> 00:20:57 |out there that love terminology and the and the outlines I've created for just
262 |261 |00:20:57 ~-~-> 00:21:01 |describing and determining what a premium and discount market is, but they
263 |262 |00:21:01 ~-~-> 00:21:05 |don't necessarily understand exactly what they're doing, okay? And you got to
264 |263 |00:21:05 ~-~-> 00:21:08 |keep watching my stuff and practicing and listening to the lectures, because
265 |264 |00:21:09 ~-~-> 00:21:15 |just because you know the words and you can draw a fib with the 50% level on
266 |265 |00:21:15 ~-~-> 00:21:19 |there, you may not be properly articulating what a discount premium
267 |266 |00:21:19 ~-~-> 00:21:23 |market is, but we're going to extend that first presented fair value gap in
268 |267 |00:21:23 ~-~-> 00:21:27 |the future, and now it becomes a discount array. So it's going to draw
269 |268 |00:21:27 ~-~-> 00:21:31 |price down into as it does right there and stops dead in its tracks, where some
270 |269 |00:21:31 ~-~-> 00:21:35 |random level of a consequence, croachman of the first presented fair value gap
271 |270 |00:21:35 ~-~-> 00:21:41 |rallies back up to our old buy side liquidity here. Remember, liquidity
272 |271 |00:21:41 ~-~-> 00:21:47 |pools can act just like any other array. Just because it went up there and swept
273 |272 |00:21:47 ~-~-> 00:21:51 |that liquidity doesn't mean that they won't use that area. Again, remember,
274 |273 |00:21:51 ~-~-> 00:21:54 |the algorithm doesn't know how many orders are at that level. It's just
275 |274 |00:21:54 ~-~-> 00:22:01 |going to go to that level to offer fair value to the marketplace, not for your
276 |275 |00:22:01 ~-~-> 00:22:04 |purpose of entering a trade, but for smart money. So the market trades up
277 |276 |00:22:04 ~-~-> 00:22:10 |there once more, breaks lower fair value gap hits it here. Trades down to first
278 |277 |00:22:10 ~-~-> 00:22:14 |visit fairbair gap again and into this small little gap here. We won't go into
279 |278 |00:22:14 ~-~-> 00:22:18 |that tonight, important rallies one more time, trades back into first principles
280 |279 |00:22:18 ~-~-> 00:22:22 |of Fairbank gap and trades up into this run here, back into this little gap, and
281 |280 |00:22:22 ~-~-> 00:22:25 |then sells off back into the first resent the Fairbank at once more, and
282 |281 |00:22:25 ~-~-> 00:22:31 |trades back up. Now keep an eye on the levels you see here. Okay, 19,009 zero,
283 |282 |00:22:31 ~-~-> 00:22:35 |1.25 is that sell side liquidity pool from the London's low. And then we have
284 |283 |00:22:35 ~-~-> 00:22:39 |the old buy side liquidity. And then we have this line is going to disappear.
285 |284 |00:22:39 ~-~-> 00:22:41 |It's not salient to what we're going to see in the afternoon. And then we're
286 |285 |00:22:41 ~-~-> 00:22:46 |going to extend this daily volume imbalance over as well. And I'll leave
287 |286 |00:22:46 ~-~-> 00:22:53 |this here for reference. Okay, so the chart looks slightly different, but
288 |287 |00:22:53 ~-~-> 00:22:57 |there's your me exiting there in the daily volume imbalance, and it uses the
289 |288 |00:22:57 ~-~-> 00:23:01 |first version of everybody got to rally up and works that level, that old
290 |289 |00:23:01 ~-~-> 00:23:08 |initial buy side that I gave you at 947 on X today in a post trades back up to
291 |290 |00:23:08 ~-~-> 00:23:14 |the wick high of April 2, daily premium wick high hits it perfectly, stops,
292 |291 |00:23:14 ~-~-> 00:23:17 |comes back down to the old buy side liquidity pool, back up to the wick
293 |292 |00:23:17 ~-~-> 00:23:24 |high. And then we're going to start looking for the afternoon session run
294 |293 |00:23:24 ~-~-> 00:23:31 |that goes into last hour trading. We can see it one more time. Trade up into that
295 |294 |00:23:31 ~-~-> 00:23:37 |daily volume imbalance here, consolidates around the old buy solid
296 |295 |00:23:37 ~-~-> 00:23:40 |liquidity pool, and then breaks aggressively lower, back down in the
297 |296 |00:23:40 ~-~-> 00:23:44 |first potential fair value gap trades through. It trades below the London low,
298 |297 |00:23:44 ~-~-> 00:23:48 |again, fails to get back to first percent of fair value gap and does gives
299 |298 |00:23:48 ~-~-> 00:23:53 |up the goods breaking lower. And this level here is the midpoint of April 2,
300 |299 |00:23:53 ~-~-> 00:23:59 |2025 daily premium WIC. That's the WIC high. And this is half of that wick on
301 |300 |00:23:59 ~-~-> 00:24:03 |the daily chart. It draws down to that, and below, it consolidates around that.
302 |301 |00:24:03 ~-~-> 00:24:07 |And then we start the new day in here with a new day opening up. All right, so
303 |302 |00:24:07 ~-~-> 00:24:11 |that's going to be it today. Hopefully you you've learned something this week.
304 |303 |00:24:11 ~-~-> 00:24:15 |I had a lot of great comments left. Tell me that they enjoyed having the Mission
305 |304 |00:24:15 ~-~-> 00:24:19 |Possible. I will probably give you something Monday morning before the
306 |305 |00:24:19 ~-~-> 00:24:25 |market opens up 930 as a task for next week. I won't make it so challenging as
307 |306 |00:24:25 ~-~-> 00:24:29 |it was this time, and we'll have some Forex homework for you next week as
308 |307 |00:24:29 ~-~-> 00:24:29 |well.
309 |308 |00:24:38 ~-~-> 00:24:42 |Hi, folks, that's going to be it. Enjoy your weekend, and God willing, I will
310 |309 |00:24:42 ~-~-> 00:24:44 |talk with you again next week. Bye.
