The other day in trade view
I saw EUR/USD hit 1.0850,
break to 1.0855, then immediately drop 100 pips.
“failed breakout”, right?
Nah.
You know this by now,
liquidity sweep.
textbook
and again it reminded me why a lot of traders never make it to that mansion on the hill day of profitability.
they think liquidity is some mystical concept when it's really just... where your stops are sitting.
smart money doesn't care about your triangle pattern or your RSI divergence.
they care about one thing:
Clearing weak hands before the real move starts.
for months I was “weak hands”.
getting stopped out right before price reversed.
every single time.
felt like the market was reading my thoughts.
I can respectfully say I think I've figured out the game,
here's the shift:
4H highs and lows for bias.
Not the 5-minute casino charts. not the 1H noise designed to confuse you.
the 4H shows you where institutions are actually looking.
then you wait for the sweep on YOUR entry timeframe.
YOUR
not some random chart you're scrolling through while you procrastinate.
your timeframe.
the one you've actually studied.
when that sweep happens and price reverses hard, that's your signal.
A simple entry after that.
FVG, Order Block, OTE.
doesn't matter which one you use.
the edge isn't in the entry method.
it's in patience to wait for the right moment.
Everyone and there mom becomes liquidity.
we enter after.
we take it.
anyway...
This is barely scratching the surface of how these markets actually play the game.
I go deeper in the private training - how to spot these before they happen, how to position with institutions instead of against them, and why 95% of retail will keep funding our accounts.
If you're tired of being exit liquidity, it's for you.
Cheers,
Atif
