AUDJPY – Short Setup | Volume Trap + Order Flow + Multi-Timefram
Why I'm Selling AUDJPY Here:
1. Massive Volume Trap Exposed 📊
On the left chart (5min), there's a huge cluster of volume** between 93.20–93.50 (67K–76K contracts). That’s not retail – that’s institutional distribution. Price pumped into that zone and dumped hard, confirming it was a liquidity grab.
Now we’re retesting the low-volume void (LVN) just under that cluster = perfect re-entry short zone.
2. Smart Money is Exiting (VBSM Indicator) 🧠
On the 20h Heikin Ashi chart (right), the VBSM 25 line just dropped below the moving average:
From 21+ down to 16.6
16.6 < 17.05 MA = Smart money is exiting the market, not buying the dip.
3. OBV Confirmation 📉
OBV 30 and OBV 200 are both trending downward
Price is moving sideways/slightly up, but OBV is leaking = hidden bearish divergence
This confirms distribution, not accumulation.
4. Money Flow Index Reversal
MFI 30 dropped from 80 to 62.28
Losing buyer momentum = another sign of buyer exhaustion
5. Heikin Ashi Candles: No Upper Wicks 🚫
On the 20h timeframe, the last two candles are solid red with no upper wicks
This confirms selling pressure is increasing — clean bearish price action
---
Trade Plan (Execution):
Sell Entry Zone: 93.05 – 93.20 (while price is testing the trap zone)
Stop Loss: Above 93.55 (above the highest volume spike)
Take Profit: 92.00 area (next demand zone + low-volume pocket)
Risk: Under 50% capital, in line with my risk strategy

Final Thoughts – From Shavarie Gordon:
This setup is the result of 7 years of deep volume analysis, order flow study, and market psychology. I only pull the trigger when all components line up — and this one checks every box.
If you're looking to learn how smart money really operates, this chart is your textbook case: liquidity grab, volume trap, weakening buyers, and stealthy exit.
Stay sharp, stay patient — 1 quality setup is all it takes.
