Twitter: Click Here YouTube: Click Here Before identifying Market Structure like an Interbank Trader, we must have the current market narrative. NARRATIVE LEADS TOWARDS A DRAW ON LIQUIDITY. A DRAW ON LIQUIDITY GIVES US OUR DAILY BIAS. This will be derived from the Long-term Perspective. In this example we will use the Weekly and Daily Chart as our Long-term Perspective. What is the current market narrative? Are we going higher for Buy Side Liquidity or to Rebalance a SIBI? Are we going lower for Sell Side Liquidity or to Rebalance a BISI? Click Here for more insight on Daily Bias Click Here for Advanced Market Structure Part 1 What is the current market narrative? What is the current market narrative? What is the current market narrative? What is the current market narrative? NARRATIVE! On an Intermediate Perspective, if Price is drawing towards Buy Side Liquidity... EVERY DOWN CANDLE IS BEING USED FOR BUYING. Down Candles will hold as Support. Up Candles will break as Resistance. Do NOT lose the desire to hold the trade. Neophyte Traders will experience FEAR every time Price retraces. Interbank Traders understand that Down Candles will be used as Buying Opportunities. IF YOU UNDERSTAND THAT PRICE WILL WANT TO REACH THE BUY SIDE LIQUIDITY... Every down candle is the chance for Smart Money to accumulate new long positions. Intermediate Term Framework Bellwether Chart Incorporating Techniques from Episode 5 Incorporating Techniques from Episode 5 Entry Refined to a 1 Minute Chart Since 15 Minute is not desired You want to follow a TOP DOWN entry approach as discussed in EP 10 Do NOT lose the desire to hold the trade. Neophyte Traders will experience FEAR every time Price retraces. Interbank Traders understand that Down Candles will be used as Buying Opportunities. IF YOU UNDERSTAND THAT PRICE WILL WANT TO REACH THE BUY SIDE LIQUIDITY... Every down candle is the chance for Smart Money to accumulate new long positions. Questions to ask before you enter on an Order Block: 1) Does Price want to reach higher? 2) Does Market Structure support your Order Block? YOU CAN ALSO USE AN IMBALANCE AS SUPPORT INSTEAD OF THE ORDER BLOCK Does Price want to reach higher? - Takes out Liquidity Pools Does Price want to reach higher? - Market Structure Break Does Market Structure support your Order Block? 2) Does Market Structure support your Imbalance? Now a SETUP should be available on the Lower Time Frames The setup forms when : a) Price trades back into an Intermediate Term Order Block. b) A occurs within a Kill Zone A) Price Trades from an Intermediate Term Low by trading in a FVG. The setup forms when : a) Price trades back into an Intermediate Term Order Block. b) A occurs within a Kill Zone B) Setup forms during a PM Session THE INTERMEDIATE TERM PERSPECTIVE GIVES THE FRAMEWORK. DO NOT IDENTIFY STRUCTURE FROM A SHORT-TERM PERSPECTIVE. Short-term Perspective is your Bellwether Timeframe. You will use it for Entry Purposes If the Risk: Reward Ratio is not desired, you can refine it even more on the Lower Time Frames to find a Risk: Reward Ratio that is desired. High Probability Order Blocks have an FVG paired with them. High Probability Order Blocks are blended with Time Theory. Parent Order Block and Subordinate Order Blocks SUBORDINATE PRICE STRUCTURE IS DIRECTLY LINKED TO THE ORDER FLOW FROM THE HIGHER TIME FRAMES. THE BULK OF THE VOLUME IS COMING FROM THAT PARENT STRUCTURE. HOWEVER... WE CAN NAVIGATE THAT VOLUME FROM THE PARENT STRUCTURE WITH SUBORDINATE STRUCTURE. Once you know what you are looking for, you can take Lower Time Frame Order Blocks Entries... This is done by knowing: Bias Narrative Draw on Liquidity SUBORDINATE ORDER BLOCK MARKET NARRATIVE NARRATIVE! BIAS BIAS - APPLYING CONCEPTS FROM EP 10 BIAS - APPLYING CONCEPTS FROM EP 10 Taking Lower Time Frame Order Blocks towards a Draw on Liquidity AFTER AN INTERMEDIATE SWING LOW FORMS, Order Block's and Imbalances on a Short-term perspective to hold. THIS IS WHERE INTERBANK TRADERS ARE BUYING. Trust that price will reach the Objective as long as Down Candles still SUPPORT price. INTERMEDIATE-TERM LOW HAS TO HOLD UNTIL THE OBJECTIVE HAS BEEN MET. If you are in Open Profits, this is how you would also manage the trade... Trail your stop-loss underneath an Order Block and Imbalances as the trade progresses.
