Hi stevepatt, how long have you been trading because i am very new to trading and i really wanna learn my heart off, but there is one cycle that i see everyone is very clever in trading but there is no one i see is making profits, but also everyone wants to be a mentor. i am really open to learning and i will even show my charts if its possible, thanks.

Hi Pip,

Good to hear from you again Pip.

I spent about a year studying ICT Trading Methods.

This thread https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=562581 by TRD was a big help in my understanding of Liquidity Pools.

But, as a Retail Trader I have no way of knowing, with any certainty, where the Liquidity Pools are sitting.

What I can see with certainty is a Switch in Order Flow and Structure this is simply caused by an increase in Supply (Selling) or Demand (Buying).

Not all the Orders, sitting at a particular Level, get filled first time which is why Price will return (PullBack) to a Level where Sell or Buy Orders are still waiting.

This is what I am trying to exploit.

was going thru your thread it's an good approach to flow with the intraday trend. structure shift is the important rule, i like the way u can quickly shift your bias.

when you say shift in structure what exactly u look for? to me the last low that pushed the price to extreme highs needs to get broken for a structure shift.

btw which indicator r u using for plotting engulf candles?

liquidity pools are simply where stops are resting.

think if you were a retail trader where would you put your stops if you took a trade?

below swings !!!

Hi Jason,

I understand the theory.

I have tried putting it into practise by looking for Swing Levels on the HTFs, because there "might" be Stops placed around them and waiting for Price to reach these Levels and placing Trades on the Lower Time Frames.

Some Swings have Liquidity Pools many don't.

I have no way of knowing, with any degree of certainty, where there are significant Levels of Stops.

I would be interested to see how you deal with this in a REAL TIME TRADING situation.
