Liquidation
USDJPY DAILY - SHORTPrices tapped into the daily supply zone, made a shift breaking out of structure. However, it failed to make a lower higher, and therefore failed to transition into a lower low to make a downtrend.
This resulted in prices having the intention to mitigate higher prices within the daily supply, into refined areas like the H4 and H8 supply zones. In a similar fashion, look for the transfer of strong hands into weak hands before taking potential SELLS.
UNDERSTANDING LIQUIDITYIn this quick and easy lesson, I will break down the concept of liquidity.
If you retain the thought that liquidity stands for an area where stop losses are you will grasp this concept quickly.
We often see spikes into areas of liquidity before true moves continue, this is so that banks can capture as many orders as possible before they depart from the area.
USDJPY H4USDJPY H4
Prices tapped into the daily resistance area @ 110.800, made a sell-side move, breaking structures, creating new lows and now making what seems like pullback before a continuation short.
We identified 2 major areas for SELL positions, mainly @109.400 area as well as 110.300 area.
If prices doesn't hit any of our crucial structures, we will be looking for a short-term LONG position @108.400 for an upside move towards 109.400.

Prices got rejected from a resistance zone, looking to test a BUY zone @1.79000 area. Aggressive and short term traders may look at this as a potential buy trading opportunity.
If we do see a breakdown off the support area, liquidating orders lying beneath the trendline, we can catch a pullback SELL opportunity towards the major structure support level below.
