A note before reading - this is a supply and demand imbalance analysis, where trades are taken from certain zones- based upon our trading strategy. This is tagged Neutral, however, as outline below - will be buying until the OL, offers a highly probable zones where a confirmed sell break and a confirmed sell from the Original level. Starting the supply and demand imbalance. Overall, where an imbalance is formed and sellers have completed the changing of hands due to purchasing further increments the exhaustive sellers.
Please do not take this as face value and conduct the relevant investment strategy to successfully trade the probabilities. However, note, at current we are in a bearish (positional trade). Also note, sentiment changes as does entry points, stop losses and profit taking points. This chart is not dynamic once submitted so keep this in mind. Updates are dynamic however.

If you fail to understand or are uncertain of the risks involved, please seek independent advice and remember to conduct due diligence.
Monthly
Silver and Gold has seen a large sell off from the imbalance created between $25-28 FL.
The reason for this zone looking left showed a strong rejection monthly wick and a corrective phase over two subsequent months, allowing price to look for a pivot point tapping a weekly zone (use Fibonacci tool to align, using high $30.63 to bottom $23.96).
FL level on the weekly will break
To understand why this zone will break is for two reasons;
Despite being a Fresh zone, the structure below has also been untested. Following the reactive departure height of the OL below between $12-15, has offered a high probability of rejection and using the zone as a base in the formation of a Drop base Drop.
The imbalance here can allow lower time frame reactive buys from the level indicated using a weekly. However, the price action to this point has showed (looking at the structure left) of a poor price action and strong departure, meaning the sells have no obstacle when returning to the level formed.
Using the rules of touches allows the buys to be placed. Rules applied here upon a second touch (as of 29th august start) shows a second tap of the weekly zone. Expect a lower low to be placed.
Four day
The four day chart has shown a clear picture of a squeeze pattern, however noting on the four day a falling wedge pattern has occurred, creating an interesting moment where price can break out from a deep reactive test - moving price back up towards $26 as a fresh level. However, do not trade until a confirmation rule applies.
The high curve (downward trendline) has shown no probability of turning bullish - the reason is the Weekly and Monthly structure shows the pathway for the arrival destination heading towards the OL at the Monthly.
Falling wedge - optional counter trade
Only where a reactive departure is created and breakout forms.
Daily
Clear downward sell into the weekly FL, offering a deep corrective sell - note, price is now within the weekly zone and a DCA buy will now be a strong optional move as price is now considered "cheap" relative to Gold.
Technicals, (scroll out) and look the structure left - price needs to move towards the weekly arrival point of $17.5 est - where price can pivot as here lies the price action zone which makes up the weekly departure move.
Completing a head and shoulder pattern formation and will extend bearish into the desired move.

US30 BUY TO SELL MODELPrices took a short term high, giving us a shift in market structure, looking for pullback into a bullish order block or imbalance for a potential long entry. We are going to look for a fill of the sell-side imbalance.
⁉️ What is an Imbalance?‼️ Imbalances are also known as inefficiencies or FVG (Fair Value Gaps) these are periods in price action whereby means of lopsided order flow, which create porous wakes or gaps in fills. The market will slip to the only available trade levels as a result of thin liquidity and these voids in liquidity will be revisited at a later stage. The market will seek to fill in any missing gaps or missed levels on a trade. Impulse price swings are typically seen with this voids in liquidity. In simple terms imbalances are gaps in the market and the market will always seek in to close or fill those gaps.
USDOLLAR Long Setup!USDOLLAR: market has been developing in a falling channel but managed to break to the upside recently. We have a beautiful retest on a resisting channel line, I am expecting this instrument to launch to 13050$ and possibly form a gartley pattern
Ape Imbalance Fill Area 50% awayImbalances are area where price tends to return. Not always but very likely. The difficulty is waiting it out. Price action could dip for months before coming back to fill the area target. The total market structure determines the time frame.

EUR USD - in a huge downward curve towards parity (most likely beyond).
Monthly
Monthly zone reached 1/1 (or thereabouts with a final close generating a low of 0.9948), expected a reactive buy as a fresh demand zone. Due to the curve being so strong with no real structure pivots on the bearish move, the probable zone of price pivoting to is 1.06 (capped) as a PCP level is hidden here within the Weekly, Monthly Combo.
Structurally, the market cycle here has a key move to go - heading down to an untested structure below at the OL (back in 2001).
From a buying standpoint, a reactive buy as price looks to retest from a daily pivot towards 1.00 will indicate a smaller curve needing to be broken from a newly formed trading range (review daily). The monthly curve previously from June 2002 - Nov 2002, shows a nice consolidative pattern so here price will look to form a similar structure after the PCP is hit.
Weekly
1 - note the reactive tap here, upon every FL especially a monthly, price will reject the supply imbalance and now create a buying demand market allbeit for a short duration. The likelihood for this is from the strong curve in play, which offers a PCP level as shown in purple, crossed with a monthly. The high chance of this chance hitting for buying targets is key for; how PCP levels are drawn and to take risk adjusted counter moves, knowing the fresh level here can offer a chance of retesting.
(structure below still has a high probable pathway as price action is minimal here). Applying the pink curve as a steep curve adjustment will show price has a disjointed pathway which price can pivot towards, reject and form the weekly trading range. (see chart below 1 weekly)
Chart 1 - weekly
Bi-annual chart
For position sellers, it's clear the long term move is down to the red box in structure.
Short term buying cover opportunity
From the daily chart - price has created a low forming a strong daily imbalance between the 0.9948-1.005 range of 102 pips, this now offers the high probability of price to revert back once breaking the curve to form a retest of the zone allowing the opportunity for a reactive buy of the zone.
Subject to the daily pivot point, using the Fibonacci sequence - for a strong retest expect 0.705 to be a level of high interest as this aligns with the zone for a reactive buying point.

Monthly
Re-mark:
January 2018, has a new Monthly imbalance - where price has broken through as structure here was weak, however offering a strong monthly bearish engulfing candle.
Price action between Oct 2021 - February 2022 offers a huge opportunity for price to break through this part of the curve (structure left) and react to the lower imbalance at 94.5 Mid candle - (note the candle ranging for the lower imbalance here at 92.7X - 97.00).
Original marking - aligned monthly imbalances marked and align better with the market structure.
Weekly Chart - as shown - technical mark up is provided.
Weekly with Fibonacci
Daily chart pushing towards the OL
Price fell towards the daily trendline and respected it at 87.9X - furthermore - netted out the imbalance on the 3day chart
Then from the imbalance drawn - showed a strong pattern to the arrival from the destination with little to no opportunity to sell - this created a short term strong curve, which needs to pivot back to a level.
Outcome from the Above June 7th chart.
From the establish high formed, price has now broken into the FL below the Monthly Original level (monthly timeframe)
The curve was broken from the Fresh high created, creating a FL on the daily. Price using a confirmation - created the low (pivot), retest of zone and then subsequent sell down towards the Demand imbalance.
Despite not reaching the sell imbalance price did however revert to a pivot for the Fibonacci Sequence at 70.5%. (revert to cleaner chart below).
Where price is heading?
Use confirms from a CP or PCP level.
Buying opportunities
Ideally looking towards a retest subject to confirmation at a tap of 93.XX
Selling opportunity
Awaiting the PCP level at the FL high at 97.XX
or subject to a downturn and <92 is taken with a daily close - confirming a sell upon a break of structure. (not in favour at present)

Monthly
Reactive tap of the OL supply since 2008.
2008 showed a steep curve sell off between 2008-09, however price had a tow year weak curve to battle back weekly and monthly zones to create a lower high upon the monthly. The final zone correlates to a bi-monthly zone **
Since the reactive tap of the OL, the monthly closes have still indicated a higher close on the months following.
Where does this leave price now on the monthly?
The reactive sell will ensure that supply imbalance has taken over. What this means using confirmation rules, price will look to retest and fail to penetrate the zone with a strong corrective final structural move which nets within the zone.
Where a monthly failure of the OL exists, then a sell in high probable to create a low curve.
** reference to 2008 analysis of steep high curve
Weekly
Price peaked at the OL and as the supply or arrival zone is tapped, price has probability with confirm rules of CP and candle patterns to spot to take a measured sell.
The PCP level is now obtainable where the high curve can, with failure to create higher highs within the structure and reactive sells upon the daily, will indicate an opportunity to sell. Since the FL is untested, orders from the supply provide a control for the swing term length of a trade.
Upon the sell closure the Curve suggests at present the high probability of an arrival between $92-96.5 where a long opportunity favours buyers as the FL here still has >70% probability as the arrival has yet to be penetrated.
Daily
The rising channel has offered buying opportunities and created the necessary confirmations needed to create the structure required on a curve correction to retest the high.
PCP level is now identifiable placed at $112-117 zone, showing the supply engulfing, corrective and retest confirm structure can play out.
The overall destination is towards the range bottom of the curve, creating a low curve, offering the hedge sell for long buys.
Trade opportunities
Bearish move is upon a rejection of the PCP formation
Bullish move from a break of trend and retest - creating the long opportunity for a measured buy towards the OL.
USD CAD for a commodity pair outlook
Weekly
Buying opportunities are highly probable towards 1.26 as the lower high formation needs to be completed subject to a sell off for the pair as the weekly zone shows a OL deep correction is now in play.
The reversion zone shows between 1.24-1.25 as a destination.

Fresh level mark up analysis provided from Monthly to Daily,
Monthly
Fresh level created on market top/ all time high
When a fresh supply is confirmed on the daily, weekly confirmation allows the distal and proximal line to be created.
Await the confirmation to tail off with an inside bar, falling three method or rising (ascending) wedge pattern forms.
The main aspect here is to understand the probability of the fresh level, signifies the bullish structure is phasing, phased out. Now a risk-adjusted probability of confidence >95% shows a fresh zone and structure left using the curve provides clear points to hold to for profit zones and or new accumulation orders.
Weekly
Price has reacted on a first tap - upon a fresh level which is half way down the structure - pointing to the weekly, monthly zone.
As a FL/OL - the first tap upon the zone will be a highly probable bullish zone as it's a fresh arrival to the destination, allowing buyers to fuel the buying orders awaiting.
The steap weekly curve has now been broken, where price will fuel an intra-channel move towards a PCP level, where price will react at a former hurdle weekly supply - creating a range (noting) the market is still in control to the downside. - Fresh supply, remains heavy sell orders.
Daily Chart
Weekly curve has been broken (using the daily curve line)
Upon a broken reactive test of the zone shows a perfect rejection and lower low retest which aligns with (November 2020).
Now with letting price react over two, three days allowing confirms to break the zone and re-test said zone. Upon a retest, the distal line is now clearer and the risk-adjusted trade can be input for long opportunities.
Where next?
Probable range - upon strong supply and fresh zone.
Weekly hurdle will be broken?
Probability of this fresh zone, unlikely, but not impossible with confirmations.

Please see the original idea posted below, June 11th.
Update to the Daily Chart of the highly probable moves of USD CHF.
Looking for a reactive tap within the Daily supply as it is a FL.
Ample opportunities as this pair is slower in terms of price action, however when price does commit to the large engulfing candles, the volatility is clear.
Well this happened, and price tapped the FL
Based upon a High curve, where price double topped upon the Daily and weekly zone.
Weekly zone - had a reactive move which hit the psychological parity of 1.000
From here price, reacted creating a strong 1st test of the supply imbalance. Where price has a strong previous case, as is seen with alot of currency pairs being analysed at present, these large engulfing 4,5 strong candles with the probability of <50% of a pivot as a breather allows the high probability of a PCP formation when looking for a sell or buy. (in this case sell).
Weekly
Before;
Expected price to remove the long await break of trend.
Once broken, clear pathway for bullish moves from the arrival to the new departure forming between 0.912-0.928, which successfully retested.
Why did USD CHF exponentially move?
From a technical view, DXY moved strong in correlation, along with SPX500 falling from a supply (but this is not causative or correlated).
USOIL also as a fundamental pivoted and has shown a strong dominance in price with clear structure.
The upside potential was clear, with looking left shows two zones where price could revert on the daily, weekly chart (upon this reversion, provide a clear opportunity for a PCP move).
Present
Well price did the exact.
Why did price suddenly sell off?
Highly reactive FL (check weekly). Price was overbought and the FL level had not been breached since May 2019.
Sell off was needed as highly reactive psychological levels and arrival zone tap, follows the rules of imbalances and Departure from a supply confirm.
Monthly
What to expect, well the weekly shows a strong PCP level for sells (using PCP rules within supply and demand rules).
With the strong probability of the reactive zone, price is looking to pivot, but as the structure of the market left offers no opportunities of a buying pivot. Sells are still strongly suggested.
Any pullbacks are relief of pressure from bearish moves as it heads to target.
Looking for Daily closures of head and shoulder pattern forming or a consolidative CP level forming.

Weekly Chart using Imbalances and Continuation Pattern levels
(Now CP from here on).
Where Buying upon a CP level is clear is based upon two factors;
1. Time
2. Understanding the levels from a departure level be it buying/selling imbalance.
The departure level is hardest part to predict, so ideally it's best not to - which why zones are drawn especially where all time highs or new tops exist.
However, with reference to the chart below - Drop Base Drop or DBD from now on. to a CP level is clear on the timeframe below.
*To those who refer to Supply and demand, this is the same thing.
So why is the CP level this zone? where The overall scale shows a further drop scenario on the horizon?
Well, this is down to the removal of multiple factors within a traders, investors control.
1. Scarcity of the coin in circulation
2. CP level has not removed the demand imbalance, there the price cycle has high probability of continuing back to the Original price (OP from now on).
3. Departure scenarios occur like fractals where patterns repeat upon smaller timeframes, and do not always necessarily meet the expectation of price flow until a later date. . Down and left, shows the trend is your friend and sellers have captured the price imbalance between buyers, sellers and the flow will look the the next departure zone at the CP or a fresh level.
IV.
Example of Departure level and why the CP level still stands.
Back testing the new all time high, shows a Rally Base Rally - in the formation of 119days or 17 weeks to create.
From here, confirmations need to be understood before entering aggressively or with a confirmed mindset where price has offered a pathway of creating lower lows and a fresh level.
Marking of the zone using the weekly low and all time high - in conjunction with looking left at the previous top.
Can we now establish an imbalance?
Where price closes below the imbalance zone but does not offer a lower consecutive daily low.
await price - before adding a sell position.
If Price creates a rest of the candle wick high, await closure of consecutive two day candles before assessing the entry point.
Does price break the low and create an engulfing which breaks the parallel channel and imbalance patterns?
Add sell, triple confirms are assessed and probability is >95% confidence price is with the departure imbalance.
Here is a clear setup scenario which confirms a clear proximal sell from the departure level.
Using the daily infinity line which indicates the sentiment hypothesis: 'should price break said infinite ray, price becomes invalidated'
Subject to departure creating lower lows, this has been confirmed.
The weekly Departure line (purple) clearly shows the areas of profit taking or if a sideline investor, using Dollar Cost Average, (here on DCA) buying positional points for long term investing upon close out of sellers positions.
Here is the Daily chart setup
Itemized labels are clear. Follow the steps breakdown to plot points with on trade setups.
As noted, price can retest the imbalance >50% probability upon establishing a smaller time frame base using price action.
So aggressive sellers, subject to Infinite ray breakout, sell upon rejection at around $59,000 marked in the Green line.
Figure 1.
Figure 2.
Confirmation of the aggressive sell and confirmed sell from departure.
The profit targets are clearly set to minimize price reversion and a possible CP to the up and right.
However, from this point, clever traders will close out and await confirmation upon a 'Bull trap' at the consolidate Base within the DBD to the arrival zone at the buying imbalance, essentially adding a smaller position to confirm extra downward right CP.
Here is the Bull trap marked upon the inside candle which suggests the liquidity wicked the end of the sellers, instead it has formed the 'Base' part of the overall picture within the DBD.
Figure 3.1 - Bull Trap Base
This is now perfect for smaller term price action traders to consolidate and form the Base positional, DCA investors want.
However, the overall pattern still is in a positional move for probability of sellers as the arrival target has not completed yet.
Do not over look the 119 days previous cycle. History fractals repeat, all be it not like for like, but this is where patience is clear from a technical stand point.
The Base demand daily imbalance needs to be removed for a CP move to occur.
Figure 3.2
Base - awaiting Drop.
Price is 42 days into the next Departure selling imbalance, and has encountered price target zone one. Which using the weekly channel and Imbalances price has still not finished the selling cycle yet as the arrival zone still is fresh and needs retesting. This paradox position of which "Fresh imbalance" is in reference to is favourable to the selling imbalance as "what goes up, must come down", not only this - from a technical departure level and how imbalances work as a concept, is clear distinct levels encounter higher probability of retesting in terms of a buying imbalance.
In this case $30,000 psychological level is the level of price movement within a DBD.
Figure 3.3
The End result
After 77 days and -52.6% from all time high to present price, Bitcoin has halved... in price.

Volatility
There are exceptions to any price volatility ofcourse, noted on the chart which 'breach the regression curve. (these are not drawn to best fit as outliers are needed and will exceed the parameters).
To note, as with volatility upon price movements both positive and negative will present high volatility upon a low price with sharp movements as an example from inception below shows the volatile state of 'aggressive moves' which jump from an example a close of $0.80, with the following close of $0.5, this is a -37.5% decrease and will present a highly volatile swing. Subsequent to this an open of $0.5 to a growth of $0.6 the next days close presents a swing of +20%. While these percentage moves are large, the representation of the figures which are lower will trick the psychology of investor/traders upon short term periods. Let's look at the data closer.
Review the chart below to see the high volatility within the First 30 days of Trading and what the swings look like in terms of investing percentages gain/losses per day.
Daily Volatility (Inception)
Now refer to the overall picture as BTC has become more established since 2010 (July,17th) -2022 (May at present)
The volatility has still produced whipsaw events which have impacted investors and traders a like. An example of this high volatility can show one of the outlier events which took place back on 12th March 2020 at the closing price of $7,987.15 and the closing capture on 13th March 2020 showed a price of $5,767.05 a -27.8% decrease within a trading day.
While the regression band does capture the reversion points for a highly reactive zone, one more than one occasion exceptional losses and growth spikes have occurred to benefit each holders. The same is clear with FX and Indices and stocks. These occasions the volume of participants is clear and the move has been winding up for a time period (interchangeable per trader).
(Current 30 day Volatility)
Using the data captured from the 20th April 2022 - 20th May 2022, shows the last month of volatility where price has continued the PCP bearish move after a consolidative phase on the daily chart.
The largest swings occurring upon the drop from the 4th May 2022 onwards which are represented on the chart above the volatility graph.
Whilst the swings are concerning in the short term price movement, this does create large opportunities from both sellers and buyers equally generating the price action necessary to keep the market moving.
Volume Vs Price (Last 30 days)
What are the takeaways from this chart?
The Volume spikes are visualized below where the the heavy volumes reacted around the points which have been drawn around the previous $30k psychology level and also indicate the structural lows in the past.** (View chart below)
Date High Low Mid Volume
12/05/2022 30,270.00 26,591.00 28,746.00 34,209.37752
11/05/2022 32,227.00 27,900.00 28,639.50 28,543.23109
10/05/2022 32,687.00 29,833.00 30,568.50 14,880.86320
09/05/2022 34,316.00 30,439.00 31,360.50 20,202.58385
Notice the large volume interest upon the buyers/sellers reacting to the zone where a fair price has now been created at $26,591 low. This still has not created the true reflective fair value zone, however the lower low put into the market can now engage a buying opportunity for those who are inclined to take advantage of the volatile scenarios.
**To see this zone clearer, view below
Volume Vs Price (200 days)
Overall using a 200 day picture volume has picked up at psychological levels ending 000 or 500 as expected.
The volume spikes at critical levels where imbalances are placed on the chart below where price aligns with a heavier interest and combines with imbalances upon the daily and weekly levels.
On top of this - the additions of price creating consolidative phases allows a volume to build up as orders pile up both for buyers and sellers.
High volume plot points all point to clear candles of interest on the chart.

Where is the price of BTC now?
Bear Market Cases
Bear Case 1
Bear Case 2
Bear Market Relief Rally
BTC Dominance
Heikin Ashi candles
Looking to the Monthly in a Bear Case scenario;
Note; the way Fresh levels work within the principles of Imbalances can create the next part of the cycle, while in a bear case - short term losses will hurt the psychology of the market participant, the overall concept here is to fully understand how price looks to previous arrival and departure levels of CP and Fresh Levels (here on FL).
Price can Imbalance net close, whereby price will look to the structure of the overall BTC price chart from inception and offer a closing out, from sellers to buyer - this is a net imbalance on the chart, where buyers will assume control of the discounted price and begin to change the selling environment to a buying opportunity for both short term and long term investors.
The reason for a bear case;
With the back test proof example as above, price reversion whilst not entirely predictable - assessing risk measured moves are however subject to confirmation;
so;
1. Using the $35,000 to $26,000 zone as an imbalance - subject to price using this as a tested and validated previous demand Imbalance, say this scenario of held base breaks, this has become a DBD scenario.
With allow price to remove the current demand imbalance,
The next imbalance is around $17,800 - $15,000 which is a critical position within the chart structure and can establish a change within market participants, this is called a shake out.
The psychological factor here, will posses a lot of holders with losses, where new participants and existing will be able to add to existing positions at the discounted part of the cycle.
Now looking at the main position of the Bitcoin from initiation to present, the future log chart formats a price option can price here reach the pivotal level and re-activate the next bullish run? .
Please read: Important notice
Dominance percentage will not coincide with price reflection nor the supply percentage mined also provide a clear aligned price figure to the exact Dominance/price/crypto market cap outcome. These variables are subject to interpretation of change, but can provide indicative scenarios. Note II, where increase of Bitcoin Dominance will always mean price correlates positively, the market factors further to this will need to be quantified in a deeper model with a multi variable scenario analysis. Review the implied price relating to more of the crypto market size as a whole before drawing a conclusion. The simplistic formula is here to indicate a potential price using imbalances upon supply and demand and what price can reflect where new fresh extended levels will take BTC.
Top of the markets to the bottom of the bearish moves
Here are the marked zones which correlate to the tops and bottoms using the 2week chart, allowing the supply and demand departure and arrival destinations in play.
At current, 20/05/2022 - the market has encountered a low of $25,790* est. from $68,990 highs (-62.72%) drop thus far.
Let's look at some scenarios where if price settles within the arrival zone at the imbalance completion marked between
$16,300 - $20,400 - price will be within the range of the previous bear market alignments with a drop between (76.03%) drop reaching the distal zone at $16,300. With highs of (70.79%) drop incurred.
So far the average bear market from high to low averages at (75.37833%) using the marked zones.
High Low Loss % from high to low.
23/05/2011 24/10/2011 -93.56
25/11/2013 05/01/2015 -85.94
04/12/2017 19/11/2018 -84.76
24/06/2019 02/03/2020 -71.09
12/04/2021 21/06/2021 -56.36
08/11/2021 09/05/2022 -60.56*
* = current low in the bear market.
Bear Model case (1)
This implied model shows what happens in a scenario within the bear market where the Market Cap suffers a loss to 0.55x multiple where the market cap is applied at 2.245T.
With the dominance being an important factor - review the chart below to address the cycle of Dominance vs BTC value in previous bear markets, notice the negative correlation (and probable causation upon the removal of liquidity from the market with a strong change of hands occurring).
The alignment of dominance retreats to a Gold standard with alt coins having higher swings of volatility as opposed to the violent swings of BTC. (note, BTC will incur large -5% moves, as does Gold).
VI.I
Bear Model Case 2
What to know about the Strong bear market (bleeding market)
As the variables change, let's look at a Bleeding market where the following occurs;
Crypto market falls to $816.6B which equates to 7% of the Gold market as of data inception date.
Dominance tends to increase when the bear markets occur, where other Crypto assets default, the overall winner is the dominant force (or value store) is Gold and demand increases, however price can still continue to decrease as money is removed from the market.
Taking an implied value at face value, price alignments are the key target here which support the strategy of imbalance/supply and demand zones. The overall market value is not important as this value driver is built up on numerous variables.
VI.II
Bear Market Relief Rally
Here is a probable scenario in which after a losing streak in the market, the market will show a sign of life, with new inflows taken upon an opportunity buy in upon a discount (either in a DCA investment or large volume of Puts to boost sentiment).
Why 40k? This is the current scenario where previous back testing, structure seem to point to (not 40k) but for pattern & market structure purposes whereby, price creates a DBR scenario for short term trading opportunities to fuel the final wave of the bearish structure. (Review below label 'Backtest relief rally')
Backtest relief rally
This was looking back to 2018 where June 11th - July 30th saw a summer relief rally occur after arriving back to the original level.
The white circles indicate the reactive points creating the first reactive test of the zone, which is an important aspect as the fresh level will generate the demand to continue (all be it shorter term moves). From the targets from said demand, price can either oscilate back upto the original supply (departure) or look at the structure in place and revert to two probable levels (creating a lower high).
The second test is a deeper consolidative phase, still providing a demand reaction however less likely to produce a return which is equal/higher than the previous lower high. The steep curve (looking at the bullish structure previous indicates the highly probable OL is sat underneath the current level).
The Final reactive white circle becomes the 'Break and retest' of the trendline. Now in this scenario price broke through to deeply test the demand structure. Creating a final move which "sprung" out of the arrival zone, but created a bull trap scenario. The final move (or wave) is now in action from the reactive retest.
The lower demand aligns to the monthly wick (left, September 2017).
While the above backtest shows the scenario, market cycles do repeat (although not in exact patterns as every piece of market data is unique), however looking at the probability and how the market is currently aligned (using the above (Bear market relief rally), the chart is point to signs of a similar outcome.
VI.III
Bitcoin Dominance vs BTC
Inversion pattern where Alt coins are hardest hit, and order flows move to BTC and cash surplus is removed from the market.
Where the all time high (arrival destination for BTC) the Dominance is at a low, why? This is due to the entire market share increasing and prices of alternate assets which will grow at different rates where the ROA is higher than BTC as diminishing returns exist.
Dominance Solely; (weekly)
The curve steepness from the supply imbalance shows an original level and fresh level respectfully.
the 60% fresh level will indicate a strong opportunity for a targeted destination in a bear market scenario where the market value of BTC will hit a respected price, equating to a 60% Dominance on the market cap.
Using the weekly structure, the Demand (arrival) is weak and needs to create a new destination towards the supply.
Price has broke out of the weekly zone with an impulse, from here, now expecting price to oscillate within the trading range at current (39.18-47.6%).
Once the confirmation of the trading range is broken, the clear movement towards the Fresh level is now available. This will subsequently mean the price of BTC will suffer.
VI.IV
Heikin Ashi (Monthly)
What is the chart showing?
Previous structure has shown a bear market of 14 red candles each within the two major previous corrections.
At present 6/14 (using the anchor as a probable scenario), shows that the market still has more room to fall before the imbalance is touched within the fresh zone.
The bear market may have a consolidatory phase where price begins to drift slowly but over a 14 candle period.
Review the Heikin Ashi weekly with the regression bands in place to indicate a probable zone of price reaction
Why is the white zone an area of importance?
The fair market value (white line) and upper band zone (green upper) both create a curve of prediction as to where price can react upon an original level.
Looking left on the structure, where the white zone is situated, this aligns with the previous structure highs, where price can have a reactive measure to. With this being a 'Fresh arrival' the structure can use this price zone as a imbalance position use as a base and build upon a long imbalance from here. (This in theory does not always correlate in Crypto, but has a higher probability within FX pairs).
VII
Bullish Case
Bull Market Cases
Bull Case 1
Bull Case 2
Bitcoin Vs Ethereum
BTC Halvings
Looking into the bullish case, the weekly levels, will need to hold at key pivot levels, however, looking at previous tests - from all time highs, to the lows, the bear market moves from the tops have been captured below.
From the regression zones - this can offer a large bullish case from the change of hands from bearish moves to a bullish move.
Using the Bullish case - the current state of play price looks to the key demand imbalance at $19,690 to $15,000 as the market cycle completes its pathway from Departure level (supply) and arrives at the (demand) zone.
There are interesting gaps along the way where 'Psychological' consolidative zones will react, creating a lower high formation. This can be a fresh level for a trading range or potential zone which can fall to a monthly zone (which can break upon multiple retests), shows a strong probability for a DBD scenario.
Price can in the short term of course remain in a trading range and essentially move sideways, to the DCA investor and position holder - looking forward to bigger picture, the main area of interest is within the range of $33,800 - 28,800, as price once rebounding from this zone, shows the Fresh level which has no tests as yet, meaning price will look to the Supply trading range of said zone.
Bull Case 1
Dominance retreats back to level of 40-45%
Crypto market inflows accelerate
Demand zone is freshly tested, now the bullish RBR cycle can commence.
First the Conservative case applied below;
The Key takeaway is that the chart below can plot the next bullish cycle which can over extend to a new fresh level and in turn become the next fresh supply.
What this chart shows, is a clear DBD scenario, where now an original level will be clear for a 'change of hands', creating the opportunity for the next bullish cycle to initiate.
Trading/investing upon confirmations will be key here to the overall success to the individual participant.
Looking at how BTC has worked in the past with impulse, correction impulse moves or (RBR), this can form the next scenario outcome.
Using the distal line based at $15,000 as an example will allow room for positions to be added where a reactive bottom occurs.
Upon a reactive bottom, buyers will need to confirm daily closes and also zones to the left where price has yet to test (as a deep corrective).
An engulfing candle from a bottom or a long wick (weekly confirm) will signify a short term move for buyers, but note - wicks can be retested within the arrival zone to clear out early buyers for the full profit takers of sellers.
The model assumes an implied mined % of BTC against the market capitalization of the Crypto market where(these are interchangeable variables). For the purpose of the model screenshot supplied, shows interval levels with differing dominance percentages expressed, furthermore the implied price will look towards the implied market cap of the Crypto market as a whole.
With reference to BTC to XAU market cap shows the highlighted variable outcomes which over extend subject to alignment of the growth of the Crypto market and onboarding of further inflows of clients.
A bullish target using the past data implies that a $50,000 mark is qualifiable as a target for a lower boundary. This is based off the fact that Dominance of BTC will need to decrease and inflows in the market from all participants to be entering again within the market space.
VII.II
Bullish Case 2
Dominance retreats back to level of 40-45%
Crypto market inflows accelerate to half of the Gold market total value est. 6.124T
Demand zone is freshly tested, now the bullish RBR cycle can commence.
What does this model show and how can the chart interpret some of the outputs?
The end goal is ofcourse the price which is the clear result, however notice the bottom section which can relate closer to how BTC price can react whereby;
1. Inflows are attracted and volume increases steadily into BTC as opposed to other cryptocurrencies as the desired asset of choice.
Dominance does not always have to be >40% of the market, instead can use the scarcity value of remaining circulation to be mined and the circulating supply which is not controlled by Saitoshi & considered 'lost, irretrievable'. This will provide a closer proximity to the real availability of BTC.
Preface to the chart and not the implied values. The next cycle can demonstrate where with further additions to consumers and the return of inflows as a growing demand increase. These fuel the change and create the price action required. (revert back to the previous peaks of the market and review the volume).
Backtest of Dominance Vs Price inversion
Looking at another example with the model applied, notice below with a potential priced in method whereby BTC holds a 43-44% Dominance of the entire market at $3.062T price of BTC will reach the desired all time high value. (subject to conditions set, where investment is heavily invested in BTC over other assets.
To understand the implied price return. The implied price based on the (implied market cap/supply)*1000 which gives the future price based off the Dominance percentage.
The implied price CAGR over the five and ten year period are calculated to indicate the return value upon the implied new price set in line with the new Crypto market cap.
When calculated back the returns, most investors look purely at the return calculation fundamentally removing all aspects of transaction fees upon purchase sells, exchange fees based on percentage of Fiat conversion to BTC and fee's upon moving from wallet to wallet transfers. This formula below purely looks at the investment price as dated to the future price value. =Implied/price close^(1/5years)-1 gives the Annual return for 5 Years.
*change the 5 years to any shortened/longer period to work out the return over a given period.
VII.III
Bitcoin Vs Ethereum
This chart represents the value of ETH against BTC, showing the valuation chart of where the pinpoint lows and highs correspond to the individual assets price in comparison.
The weekly chart is showing two probable scenarios here based off the arrival and departure and arrival zones.
Price can look to come back to 0.4 zone as the curve using the market structure (looking left ) a clear impulse and correctional play has been created. Now using the previous cycles, a fair value is needed as a correction (bear phase) where BTC & ETH will correct back to the trendline (review curve to see where price will look to). This is a potential pathway.
Always adjust and never forget the 0.2 zone for ETH BTC trend can fall back to the original level, this impact would be
Now review the reversion zones where BTC, ETH stagnates in a bear market before the next bull run.
VII.IV
BTC Halvings
1) Bitcoin Halvings
The best way to interpret Bitcoin's price action is via the logarithmic chart which shows the overall square root function of each cycle.
Simply put, realistically, the log chart is slowing down on the longer timescale, meaning that Bitcoin is now currently in its fourth phase as shown in the chart - price maturity and store of value.
Halvings; are where new bitcoins are issued by the Bitcoin network every 10 minutes. The amount of Bitcoins issued were 50 every 10minutes, however every four years, this number is halved, hence "halving".
A definition is explained here;
"The Bitcoin mining algorithm is programmed to look for new blocks every ten minutes. The time it takes to find blocks will decrease as more miners join the network and add more hashing power. To restore a 10-minute objective, the mining difficulty is reset once every two weeks or so. The average time to locate a block has constantly remained below 10 minutes (roughly 9.5 minutes) as the Bitcoin network has grown dramatically over the last decade."
Source: cointelegraph.com
The significance of halving decreases the amount of new bitcoins generated per block, meaning the supply of new bitcoins is lower, making buying more expensive.
In normal markets, lower supply with steady demand usually leads to higher prices, this comes with a utility which we will look at a store of value and a consider the ongoing use case of BTC as a best practice of who can create for the general public offerings to provide best customer experiences with offerings using the network effect with parties added where merchants are added on a platform, this scalability of being able to move BTC around as a payment system with the ever decreasing availability of BTC able to be mined and % in circulation remaining, using supply/demand, price along with maintaining price stability and a store of value, will continue to drive the price up.
At present national currencies exist like the USD, EUR, GBP & AUD, taking the US in to focus for example; U.S. Federal Reserve, has at its disposal multiple tools that enable it to add or remove dollars from circulation. If the economy is floundering, for instance, the Fed can increase circulation and encourage lending by purchasing securities from banks (look back to COVID 19, 2008 market crash and Millennium crash). Alternately, if the Fed wants to remove dollars from the economy, it can sell securities as part of removing dollars from the system. These currencies are infinite, especially with printing of new Fiat. However, BTC and other Cryptos and XAU in this case present a fixed or limited resource (XAU). Having a predetermined number it’s this scarcity alongside their utility that largely influences their market value as a store of value.
Bitcoin has at current had Three halving's so far; review below the growth one year on from the day BTC halves
November 28th 2012
July 9th 2016
November 5th 2020
For the instance of the First halving, BTC per block Before = 50BTC per block
After = 25 BTC Per block
Using (Final value - Starting Value)/Starting value * 100 = % increase
Price on halving day 1 = $12.35 as at November 28th 2012
365 Days after period = $1037.75 November 28th 2013
Growth = 8303% R.D up 8302.83%
Second halving
Price on halving day 2 = $650.63 July 9th 2016
365 Days after period = $2541.85 July 9th 2017
Growth = 291%
Third Halving
Price on halving day 3 = $8765.8 May 11th 2020
365 Days after period = $55,952.5 May 11th 2021
Growth = 538%
Fourth
Price on halving day = $ Feb-June 2024
V.III
XAU vs BTC, chart research
As stated above, the cause of these growth cycles are the Bitcoin Halvings, which leads to a supply shock and a subsequent rally. As history has shown that with a lower supply (scarcity) the demand for the coins go higher, meaning that the fundamental value of Bitcoin may go down, and now becomes more of a 'Store of Value' asset, just like gold. Refer to the below chart of XAU/BTC price chart.
Weekly Chart XAU/BTC
Notes taken from the chart:
The argument here can be presented as price for BTC is showing clear chart pattern almost mirroring XAU.
Note: XAU is finite but the supply is unknown, however BTC is 21MLN coins and known.
This uptick in Gold taking off in the 68 and retesting the lows in 1970. This departure imbalance shows clearly on the BTC chart between 2017-2019 showing a similar case. Whilst not causative, there is an element hear of the adoption phase before looking at Gold, price began to depart and create a RBR formation to generate a new all time high.
To note further, price once created the new ALT-high position, it is now time to sit on the side and await the next move, the reason being - daily charts offer shakeouts between these fresh levels and it's a risk-calculated measure to remove positions from the market or at least dwindle down to a minimum subject to trailing stop losses. The move will now form an imbalance in favour of a supply imbalance and a distal zone for viewing a sell opted trade.
Although this chart is just an observation and educated guess using technical approaches with supply and demand imbalances, still assume that this chart is realistic and a probable scenario as it is calculated with a balance of market psychology, technical, and overall market cycle theories explained.
Even the monthly chart can be seen as a minuscule timeframe and we have to take this day by day, timeframe by timeframe. We can most definitely see lower prices and from a longer perspective, anything below 100,000 USD is still considered a great buy for Bitcoin , as many will start to understand that Bitcoin is becoming an investment. If we also apply Murphy's law, we will also have to assume that all good things will come to an eventual end for a cycle.
XAU vs BTC further, looking back
Gold 70's analysis using departure and arrival supply and demand imbalances.
Here is the weekly chart in the 70's between Nov 1973 - September 1976 which shows the steep trend of RBR (on the Red line)
The reason why the "Xs" are marked on the chart is purely to show where areas on the RBR structure to the formed supply imbalance created a good reference pathway (not always 100% mirrored) but for a DBD to the original level, these are positions to take profit or look to await further positions for adding to keep exposed in the sell.
From here price created an imbalance where price had exhausted, price is now presenting a departure for sellers using a proximal sell and a distal (top) stop loss.
Price reverts to the original departure zone as the strong impulse correction, impulse now needs to retest the original level

Reference data in plain text
so here is a BTC vs XAU Chart and relative values thanks to Woobull.com
charts.woobull.com
Simplified BTC price to market cap ratio of XAU
Prices = April 1, 2022
However a simple price target using the value of Gold price value as at $12.249T
BTC price as at close $46,630 April
BTC market value 8.87307E+11 or (887BN)
=12.249/88.7 = 13.81x multiple
Apply this to the price of BTC where close $46,630 x 13.81x = $643,960.30 subject a 1:1 ratio of BTC Market cap = XAU
BTC Modelling can be manipulated to reach whatever price you like. See the example below;
The interchangeable criteria relates back to the Dominance of the Crypto market dominance of Bitcoin using cases of where BTC had previously held highs of 70% Dominance.
For the purpose of the model implied below; using 70% as the Optimal where the large majority of investment activity by passes the other ALT coins and stable coins or better yet the top 10 coins.
70% of all investment into the market as a whole will increase the dominance of BTC in conjunction with the Implied price subject to the current scarcity of BTC in circulation with an additional 900mined per day.
Implying the 70% market cap of the new Crypto market space at a current price of $3.062T using the 19.003M coins in circulation an implied price subject to investment into BTC > all over projects, the price will produce a $112,799.40 per BTC held.
Upcoming analysis for BTC to consider.

Criteria
Original level, where the market takes the order from the RBR (Rally Base Rally), the lower level is not tested, due to the original not being required. The reaction is built upon the bi-monthly and weekly chart respectively with the reactive test occurring. (Review re-tested level, fig.3)
Bi-monthly level
Note back to the previous structure, pertaining 2018 (Jan, 2018) - the structure has netted off the imbalance from the original all time high.
This has now created a strong base for buying potential. To truly understand Fig.2 , read the below section for further explanation.
Fresh level or future level has already incurred a bi-monthly test once, but not a deep retest so consider this a reactive move upon a fresh level.
Structure here is still strong as a basic test of the bi-weekly close has only been tested (which is the imbalance) see (Fig.1) below, as to the Continuation pattern (CP) was required in the previous structure.
(Fig.1)
(Fig.2)
Why is the previous structure important in making an informed decision?
History repeats itself, although - no trader/investor will know the exact date, instead risk calculated moves are prepared using what information is displayed upon the market structure.
The key zone is highlighted, firstly in purple to represent the bi-monthly zone.
The second white dotted lines, show a distinctive close which nets off the February 26, 2018 weekly high. The high closures upon a net 'zero' is a clear distinctive technical piece of information which allows confirmation the price is showing the next move from. This does not 100% always align, however, with probability and risk calculations upon reading the candle stick closures on higher time frames, sentiment can be clear.

Monthly with Original levels and fresh levels yet to be tested
Clear departure on the weekly Monthly - (Monthly ray has been left in to represent the steepness of the curve.
Price may not instantly revert to the Original level, as a trader, it's impossible to know the time limit, however the direction from a Departure will lead to an arrival using supply and demand in conjunction with a clear supply imbalance formation.
The "clear seven week drop" on the chart signifies the overall move was strong, whilst this does have an element of prediction, the reality is price moves in a downward right formation where an original and fresh level below the current imbalance whereby this is test number four, proves the zone is a solid trading range between 1.89 - 2.05 zones respectively.
The monthly wicks, have left patterns forming with higher lows providing a strong basis.
Weekly Markup
Clear departure on the weekly highlighting a Fresh level (FL) - zone will require a retest and this will initiate a strong supply zone.
Price may not instantly revert to the FL as the strong departure can accumulate before the next distribution pattern is confirmed.
Subject to weekly closes price can revert back to test lows of <1.92 subject to a shorter term base forming upon a daily level. Note, this also aligns with the December 6, 2021 candle of interest which 'pauses' the RBR formation.

Monthly chart
What is the monthly chart showing?
Price has now arrived at the Monthly imbalance, where it is now creating a base candle. The previous fresh level was created back in June, July 2015.
August saw a bi-monthly and monthly low tested upon the fresh level created. Confirming a four day continuous selling from the distal point and opportunities to sell from the proximal line .
As the current monthly chart shows a Fresh level test where March 2022 had wicked after netting out the 2015 August high. Price had immediately pivoted from the low and whip sawed back the following day.
Price then began to sell off back to a reverting back to the steep trendline formation which the daily chart shows at present .
Using the monthly timeframe still, USD JPY has previous created back in 2007 an original fresh level of the 123.XX zone. Now 15 years on, has retested the new imbalance as mentioned above in 2015. Analyzing the overall cycle, and looking at the example below to show how the original departure worked . Price successfully DBD from the departure supply imbalance.
Recapping the fresh level from 123.XX as mentioned, indicated a clear supply imbalance;
Price departed here with a perfect Departure candle scenario;
Where the highlighted candle (purple) shows a indecision candle upon a monthly setup.
The preceding month then has an engulfing candle which is double the height. From here the sell would be opportune position for three consecutive zones for profit taking.
Note using a DCA positional method. Adding positional sells are added at a rejection of any pivot point.
Daily Old Technical Analysis (positional buy)
Review more technical work in the links below.
Weekly;
Awaiting the departure level for confirmation - with reference to the previous distal and proximal lines within the OL Supply imbalance.
There is not enough evidence as yet to provide a clear selling imbalance.
What is clear though, is that from the weekly wick back into the Fresh level will show two things;
1. Retest of the high to confirm a double top or lower high formation
2. A daily confirm candle to show a clear indecision candle - but again, awaiting 123.X to become an area of clear proximal sells. Refer to the daily chart below. 1.1.

This shows the Imbalance candle in relating to a strong move confirmation, >95% confidence of this being retested as per previous Original level.

Monthly, original level
Criteria
Original level, where the market takes the order from the RBR (Rally Base Rally), the lower level is not tested, due to the original not being required. The reaction is built upon the bi-monthly and weekly chart respectively with the reactive test occurring. (Review re-tested level, fig.3)
Bi-monthly level
Note back to the previous structure, pertaining 2018 (Jan, 2018) - the structure has netted off the imbalance from the original all time high.
This has now created a strong base for buying potential. To truly understand Fig.2 , read the below section for further explanation.
Fresh level or future level has already incurred a bi-monthly test once, but not a deep retest so consider this a reactive move upon a fresh level.
Structure here is still strong as a basic test of the bi-weekly close has only been tested (which is the imbalance) see (Fig.1) below, as to the Continuation pattern (CP) was required in the previous structure.
(Fig.1)
(Fig.2)
Why is the previous structure important in making an informed decision?
History repeats itself, although - no trader/investor will know the exact date, instead risk calculated moves are prepared using what information is displayed upon the market structure.
The key zone is highlighted, firstly in purple to represent the bi-monthly zone.
The second white dotted lines, show a distinctive close which nets off the February 26, 2018 weekly high. The high closures upon a net 'zero' is a clear distinctive technical piece of information which allows confirmation the price is showing the next move from. This does not 100% always align, however, with probability and risk calculations upon reading the candle stick closures on higher time frames, sentiment can be clear.
Re-tested level, apply the confirmation rules upon a daily close (with an engulfing or 50% candle).
This chart is in conjunction with the explanation below.

Daily Chart
Back test scenario for a hedged short or a short position if not holding ETH.
Criteria to consider,
Where is the distal line, where stop losses should be placed?
Where is the proximal line for a confirmed fresh level sell?
Where are the profit taking points? upon the departure?
The market at current:
There are two outcomes.
The reactive buy has occurred upon the initial touch back on April 30, or $2700 zone.
Await a further move which aligns to the final arrival point and begin to DCA investing wise.
Looking at the weekly time frame will indicate further probabilities for the long term outlook.

⁉️ How to identify imbalances? ‼️ Imbalances are also known as inefficiencies or FVG (Fair Value Gaps) these are periods in price action whereby means of lopsided order flow, which create porous wakes or gaps in fills. The market will slip to the only available trade levels as a result of thin liquidity and these voids in liquidity will be revisited at a later stage. The market will seek to fill in any missing gaps or missed levels on a trade. Impulse price swings are typically seen with this voids in liquidity. In simple terms imbalances are gaps in the market and the market will always seek in to close or fill those gaps.

Monthly at current;
EUR AUD since 2017 has seen a high curve this is due to the Original level from 2009 had not been tested allowing the AUD to be considerably weak in terms of exchange rates for the Aussie.
The overall supply and demand curve offers opportunities to sell upon a "step by step" case where three points of pullbacks have allowed the buyers to reach the arrival destination.
Now the price is in a pure down sell upon a very strong curve for a departure, which means upon the fresh level of arrival, price will consolidate and create a new curve within the structure. However, trading comes with confirmations.
Since 1.96 price has developed a large data structure whereby Drop base Drop or DBD scenario has encountered. (Revert to the example below to see a side by side reference) *Fig1*
*Fig1.*
The premise is, a lot of traders when learning Imbalances and supply, demand - shows the opportunity on smaller timeframes, where price will create ranges for short term hedges and or scalpers, range traders - this will appease to all trader styles.
Weekly Chart
The weekly has shown since March 21 from the low, a reversion identifying a channel to the up and right, which has been clear with subsequent higher lows and in conjunction with this, a high curve from the previous structure, where by price had formed a regression channel against the March low.
There were to specific zones of interest where price will overcome from the Departure and look to the supply imbalance to test the fresh level it had returned from.
Fig.2 , shows the curve which was over come from the buying imbalance as well as a look into the weekly structure once breaking forming a lower high upon the retest.
This test subsequently closed below the "purple trendline" creating a new channel which is where proximal sells can be placed to "set and forget".
Fig.2
Daily chart
Awaiting the next move upon price completion;
Ultimately, still holding shorts, but will be awaiting 1.39 before closing out and looking to add once the arrival is clear using the weekly chart.
AUD will pose more pressure as the original level has not been tested yet since 2018 so, any pull back - trade with confirms upon sells, as the DBD is still relevant as a fractal upon the structure.
Keep track of commodities; for references.

Monthly zones
These zones have been highlighted due to the imbalance showing a strong pivotal reversion point where price has set a psychological level of .80 to be a structural level for the USD vs AUD.
The monthly wicks also highlight a great opportunity where the imbalance is strongest within the wick zones, in the past, there are multiple levels of imbalances as highlighted clearly.
The main focus of the monthly imbalances is if price fails to create weekly higher highs and break the monthly infinity line, then the probability of Original Pattern imbalance will become reduced and the selling imbalance will take affect towards $0.60.
weekly chart - trade is activated, just awaiting the positioning of a sell (subject to confirmations using the daily Fibo structure and possible retest of said CP zone.
Notice how the falling knife pattern is still clear using the supply and demand imbalance methodology.
Price once departed the Continuation pattern from the monthly level at 0.80$, price will use the retrace zone to create a CP level between 50-70.5% Fibonacci retracement, aligned with a 'breather' which is a CP level.
Revert below to see the weekly retest structure before and after to see where price develops a level of CP and why?
Despite not 'reaching the 50% retracement, the weekly imbalance has been retested and rejected.
Looking to the daily for a confirmation, shows clearer how this has formed.
Here is the daily netting zone, where one previous retest of the immediate zone has shook out buyers, sellers who hold positions to form the CP block weekly level.
The retest of the Daily candle of interest within the CP is still maintained within the "Netting zone" where the high of the daily candle offers a chance to sell.
Selling in action upon rejection of the netting zone
Selling is confirmed now below the retest of a daily engulfing candle and rejection upon a 50% retest of said candle.
Daily Chart
A probable scenario for the Daily chart, using the daily CP level, below the two weekly imbalances of interest.
Keep in mind, the main imbalance reverts back to the Weekly 0.746 - 0.7616 where price has original created the CP.
Please note - due to the current affairs, keep track of Commodity prices, to confirm sentiment, as smaller moves also counter-act with imbalances based upon other resources.
The overall departure however, still stands from the current 0.76$ move.

EURUSD SMC analysisDue to the increase in interest rates of the FEDS, the USD has gain value and therefore everything that is base to the USD went short. This is just a quick demonstration of the precision of SMC.
ICT IMBALANCE / FVG / LIQUIDITY VOIDLiquidity void, Fair Value Gap, Imbalance... These terms are interchangeable.
As a Charter Member ill tell you what I've shown here, is a basic depiction, as I got asked a question on what is an imbalance?
An imbalance, is an imbalance in price, where price has NOT efficiently delivered orders in the market, price will like to revisit these areas, of imbalance, as seen here. The diagram on the left depicts the ideal model of what an imbalance is, the chart on the right is an in time example.
if you notice one of these getting filled, at a place where you are bearish/bullish... well.... there is your trade!
