I also observing this 3 kind liquidity
1. Equal high / low
2. Trendline
3. sideway

first thing, is knowing the trend, major trend at big tf, then back to 4h and below tf for current / minor structure.
Training.
For now, i try to focus 1 pair GU.
Daily still downtrend but 4H is uptrend.
I may wrong , below 2 photo just my perspective , not signal.
i currently myself holding short 5 orders and small, all risk is set.
Total 5% that i willing to risk. And now all green. Still holding and not yet close any.

But still ranging structure for now. Possible to go up retest or drop.
176x-195x.
Training.
I think we are going for a retest around 30-40pips then up again,
since demand zone(Order Block) has been constantly mitigated making consecutive higher lows
Trade at good levels or no trade at all!

also may due to PMI tmr or fomc meeting, so market ranging for now until tmr.

But we can see volume more or less, if we know where to look.
What this higher time frame, high volume comment about?, That’s just viewpoint - not volume fact.
Trading thin liquidity at the boundary of the charts
Quoting LeongPuiy
Hey guys, I am welcome everyone trading using by structure and liquidity strategy.

Liquidity refers to the efficiency or ease with which an asset can be converted into ready cash without affecting its market price.

If this true then I didn't get how it is possible to say where liquidity sits without order book data. At least. I'm even not saying that stops often produce much more liquidity than order book shows, but this is second chapter.

If this is not just another bs thread about magical trading using drawing tools and you really want to dig deeper then go and study the difference between market and limit orders first. Then what stops are. Then order book and orderflow.

Mate,

I am not completely sure how you define the MAJOR or MINOR levels and also have no idea how you use them in your strategy. However, drawing a horizontal line at every swing point of any or many chosen TF will result in many lines to handle. Now, are all of them worthy to be in the chart? Which one to keep? and how do we know? .. We will never know that before the fact. And, it's not possible to catch every move either. To keep the analysis simple, I only keep and pay attention to the following levels as I don't hold any trade overnight.

  1. Prev D H/L
  2. Prev W H/L
  3. Prev M H/L
  4. Current W H/L
  5. Current D H/L
  6. Prev Session H/L ( max 2)
  7. Current D Open line
  8. RN and quarters
  9. Equal High/ low ( intraday using 15M)

The above levels are more than enough for me to handle.

Cheers

Always learning

For Major I look at bigger tf like daily and above, but most time i take daily , where the high/ low bfr BOS and where the bounce or reverse hard .
For minor i looking at 4h and below tf trend high /low.
there is many way to mark H and L ,
So cant say i am 100% correct.
this thread i open for those who using SMC strategy and gather to discuss view and analysis.
i only draw daily and 4h swing high and low.
then those 1h and below tf just mark for possible liquidation area,
equal high / trendline and sideway high and low,
only mark at recent move , and wait for order block that at near high / low.

Hi,
this is not magical trading or bs thread.
i studying and learning SMC strategy,
And i hard to find one forum about discuss SMC.
so i just simply open one and hope other using this strategy can come to share some knowledge and view.
If other come to share view about their strategy i also dont mind.
this thread just for sharing and discuss.

I didnt say what i mark or share is 100%, that just my own view and may wrong, i just take my proper risk to test my analysis.

i do appreciate your opinion and comment.

I am not looking for feed spoon.
i rather listen and learn about trading basic and extra information, then hope someone give live trade and follow.
