Supply and Demand Confirmation Entries ☑️The thing that catches most traders out is they don’t know what zone will hold, that’s why it’s always best to wait for the higher time frame zone to be mitigated, wait for the break of structure to confirm the trend is changing, then execute. Wait for confirmation ☑️

Smart Money Manipulation 🥊Alkaline is back baby! 💣
As smart money concepts gain popularity, liquidity increases.
I have taken a month away from trading to study the new forms of market manipulation and have been pleasantly surprised by what I have found.
Here is my discovery:
1) The market is currently focusing on taking liquidity from breakeven positions over fixed stop losses.
This is because emotional traders put their stops to BE quickly to avoid pain, especially during indecisive markets.
2) Order blocks are the perfect manipulation areas.
If you take time out to backtest significant order blocks, you will notice price will tap and lure or simply sweep above/below the zone before going in the intended direction.
3) That tight stop loss you are using is doing more damage than good.
Scale into your positions, trust me when I say this will reduce your emotions and give you a more relaxed trading style.
4) Use your brain, even if you are in denial.
If the majority of traders lose money, and the majority of traders now use smart money concepts, do the maths.
It feels good to be back after a long month of studying, I have lots of new things to teach and share.
I will be taking on new students shortly, have a great weekend everyone 👋
[Candlestick Patterns] Just need to know these three!#Candlestick #CandlePattern #Tocademy #Tutorial
Hello traders from all over the world, this is HAMZA_ZDH=)
I was unexpectedly surprised by many of you who liked and supported my last post about the basic concept of TA( Technical Analysis ). Today I prepared a brief lecture about the Candlestick Pattern, one of the most fundamental phenomenon and behaviors that traders must be well-informed. In fact, we should be very familiar with these textbook contents and interpret it in a glimpse on the technical chart unconsciously. Just like we don't pay direct attention about each breathes when breathing, like we don't care each and all of the alphabets when we speak, or like we don’t perceive location of each keyboards every moment as we type, this very technique should be performed automatically and quickly by observing dominant formations of candlestick bars.
As a matter of fact, comprehending market trends and price actions only by referring to the candlesticks is yet too spurious. It should be used in such a way to weight on certain scenarios in a macroscopic view, rather than deriving precise and specific PRZ(Potential Reversal Zone)s and distinguish the accurate market trend. It’s never like ‘The price must go up because this pattern just appeared’. Furthermore, I strongly believe that the reliability of the candlestick pattern strategy is declining especially in recent financial market, where we encounter countless non-traditional and abnormal situations that were not very common in the past. Hence among the existing ‘Textbook’ candlestick pattern strategies that can easily be found on Google , there are particular patterns that are still very reliable on current market and there are ones that are not as reliable as it used to be. So here, I will organize everything very clearly for you guys.

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!

What is an Order Block? 🎯Why are order blocks formed?
Order blocks are created when a breakout move doesn't go to plan.
If banks get caught in a fake breakout move, they aren't going to sit and cry about it.
They are going to push the price back up/down so that they can close out of their negative positions to join the correct side of the market.
Stop using order blocks that have no logic, widen your chart perspective.
Why price reacts to s&d zones before breaking themWhy price reacts to s&d zones before breaking them.
We tend to see a reaction for one simple reason;
- BFI's need liquidity to accumulate a sizable position.
So, how would a reaction provide them with this liquidity?
- Retail traders will enter aggressively at these s&d zones
expecting price to move away from them. Now, BFI's will
use all this liquidity to accumulate a sizable position,
targeting the next pool of liquidity which is
retail's stop-losses on the opposite side of the zone.
Order blocks and Breakers tutorial !!OB = ORDER BLOCK
The LAST BULLISH or BEARISH cand before an IMPULSE up or down, represent an OB or Order Block.
-Why do we call them order blocks and why are they important?
Order Blocks are one type of supply and demand on the market, you can expect them to act as a support or resistance depending on the impulse after them.
an OB is where larger players (whales, institutions, banks) have orders laying in wait for the price to return to a level they are interested in, so that's how they act as strong supply or demand areas.
-Which OB is bullish and which one is bearish?
the last bearish candle before an impulse up is a BULLISH OB . so we highlight that candle from tip to toe (wicks) and name it as our POTENTIAL support area.
now you can guess how the bearish one looks: the last bullish candle before an impulse down is a BEARISH OB.
NOTE: DO NOT BLINDLY BID/ASK AT THESE AREAS, THEY OFTEN TEND TO TURN INTO BREAKERS
Now what is a BREAKER:
Breaker is an OB that fails to hold and the price finally breaks through it
-Just like OBs we have bullish and bearish Breakers:
BULLISH BREAKER, when a bearish OB fails to hold as resistance and the price jumps above it we expect that area to act as support now.
vice versa with BEARISH BREAKER, when a bullish OB fails to hold as support and the price breaks it to the downside we expect that area to act as resistance now.
in my experience Breakers are often stronger than Order Blocks and the first retest on them is very successful and profitable for me. DYOR and backtest and find your own strategy.

Bullish Order FlowThis weeks price action was phenomenal on EURUSD. We had a clear bullish run respecting the order flow of the move.
After each break of structure, price was mitigated back to the order block that caused the breakout.
Over and over like clockwork.
If you can understand and grasp concepts like this, you can trade and stack positions when we have clear trending weeks.
How can we draw a plan for every movement ? Each ''top trader'' should know about every movement of the price on chart. For instance we have to find major highs & lows and compare levels for finding breaks. As you can see on the #usdjpy on 4h time frame, all of the breaks has a powerful basement that we mark them " Supply and Demand zones ". If traders can find these areas and also guess the way of the last movement, then they will have a great chance to execute on lower time frames like 15 minutes. However the parameter of the "volume" can improve your analyzing the long term way of the charts.
