1INCHUSDT - fear zone, return to the channel, growth potential1inch - is a decentralized exchange (DEX) aggregator that combines multiple DEXs into a single platform, aiming to provide users with the most efficient routes for swaps across all platforms. 📍 CoinMarketCap : #160 📍 Twitter(X) : 1.3M The coin has already been listed on exchanges during the distribution phase of the cycle and was partially sold off in waves. Then, in line with the overall market, it declined to more reasonable accumulation prices, shaking out small investors and those who entered positions on positive news. The price has been moving within a horizontal channel for a couple of years, and the channel’s percentage range reflects the coin’s liquidity. Currently, the coin is in a fear zone, at its lowest price levels. In moments like this, very few people have funds left to accumulate positions, as they’ve already been trapped by optimistic bloggers and a positive news background earlier. Many were wiped out recently due to a breakdown and consolidation below the previous support of the inner channel, and now there's emptiness and fear below. What’s happening now is an attempt to return back into the inner channel. If this zone holds, the channel targets may be realized. Resistance zones where the price may react are marked on the chart. Potential final downside wicks are also indicated. It’s important to allocate funds wisely for position building and use proper percentage distribution, according to your own experience! ______ 📌 Not financial advice.

Silver (XAGUSD) Structural Analysis : Curve break & TargetSilver is exhibiting a textbook bullish continuation pattern, guided by a parabolic curve structure that reflects intensifying buyer momentum. This unique setup provides a high-probability trading roadmap as we approach a major reversal zone—one where smart money may look to offload long positions or enter fresh shorts. This analysis aims to help traders anticipate the likely path of XAGUSD based on structure, liquidity behavior, and trend psychology. 🔍 Key Structural Observations: 1. Black Mind Curve Support (Dynamic Bullish Structure) This parabolic arc acts as dynamic support. Every bounce from the curve shows growing strength in buyer conviction. The price is riding the curve upward with higher lows, signaling accumulation with momentum. This is not a standard trendline but rather a curve reflecting the accelerated nature of this uptrend. 2. Aggressive Bullish Momentum The recent price behavior has shown strong impulsive candles to the upside followed by shallow corrections, confirming bullish dominance. Volume and candle size increase near the curve, suggesting institutional interest. 3. Reversal Zone: 37.20 – 37.45 Marked as the Next Reversal Zone, this green box represents a key supply area where previous swing highs exist. Historically, price struggled to break this region cleanly, making it a high-probability reaction zone. Expect either: a bearish rejection (short-term correction), or a consolidation before a breakout continuation. 4. Liquidity Pool & Needed Volume Zone (~35.20 – 35.50) The market often revisits zones of untapped liquidity. This area likely holds: Buy-side stop losses Unfilled institutional orders If the market needs a deeper retracement, this is the zone to watch for re-accumulation. 🧠 Market Psychology Behind This Setup: This structure suggests a classic case of smart money accumulation, with price moving upward in a controlled yet aggressive fashion. The parabolic nature of the move points to: Increasing retail buy-ins FOMO-driven entries Possible engineered sweep before the next impulse The reversal zone could become a profit-taking area for institutions. If large players want to continue higher, they may first induce a pullback to absorb more volume at lower prices (near the curve or liquidity zone). 🔧 Tactical Playbook for Traders: For Bulls (Long Bias): Watch for pullbacks toward the curve or liquidity zone. Enter long positions on bullish confirmation (e.g., engulfing candles, pin bars) off those zones. Targets: 37.20 – 37.45, possibly higher if broken with strength. For Bears (Countertrend Traders): Wait for clear rejection patterns in the reversal zone. Use confirmation like RSI divergence, momentum slowdown, or distribution volume. Target: Curve support or deeper liquidity zone for reentry. 📌 Key Technical Levels: Zone Price Range Description Reversal Zone 37.20 – 37.45 Resistance / Take-Profit Area Curve Support Dynamic (rising) Support based on parabolic arc Liquidity Pool 35.20 – 35.50 High-volume demand zone 🧭 Conclusion Silver is currently in a momentum-driven phase supported by smart money activity. The parabolic structure and clean liquidity map give traders a clear plan to engage both long and short setups with timing and precision. Patience around the reversal zone will be key, as the next major move may depend on how price behaves in this critical area.

Mastering Liquidity Dynamics: Understand the Dynamic True ValueDear Reader, Thank you for reading—your time is valuable. Use the chart's zoom-in/out (-/+) function for better visibility. This chart captures a large sample for your evaluation. Below is the manual detailing the Smart Farmer System —a Dynamic True Value framework derived from real-time data to anticipate market intent and liquidity behavior . If this resonates with you, drop a comment below— constructive insights are always welcome . The Dynamic True Value - a Smart Farmer System: Terminology and Mechanics : For now, I have firmed up POC - Price of Control, VAP - Value Average Pricing, SULB - Sell Upper Limit Bound, BLLB - Buy Lower Limit Bound. Mechanic: POC - Where fair value price dynamic is read. VAP - Trading above indicates bullish sentiment of the cycle, and the opposite for bearish sentiment. A crossed over of: Grey POC above Green VAP - Signaling distribution, accumulation, consolidation, build-ups, correction, retracement . Green VAP above Grey POC - Bullish strength and momentum consistency . Pink VAP above Black POC - Bearish strength and momentum consistency . Flip of Pink VAP to Green VAP - Sentiment flips from bear to bull, and the same goes for green flip to pink showing bull to bear. Validation of entry signals requires: Signal's candle must close past the opposite side of POC – flip sentiment . The confirmation candle (is the closed next candle immediately after entry signal candle) must continue closed past the POC – maintain sentiment . The progress candle (is the next candle closed right after the Confirmation Candle) shows traction, momentum build-up, and volume consistency . Hint of invalidation: Signal's candle is considered void if the next candle prints a new entry signal in the opposite direction. This often signals accumulation, sideways movement, build-up, uncertainty, or swings in range . The immediate next candle closed past POC to the opposite side. What to understand about Liquidity Trap, SULB, and BLLB: Liquidity traps Often occur at the recent/previous flatlines of Dynamic True Value (POC, VAP, SULB, BLLB) . It is worth paying attention to the market’s intent and institutional positioning. Signs of exhaustion, absorption, inducement, offloading, and accumulation are visible in the M1 (one-minute) TF, with significant confluence near the previous/recent flatlines of Dynamic True Value in the higher/macro-TFs. An Anchored VWAP tool can be helpful for filtering noise in the market. This tool can be found in the drawing tab in the TradingView platform. SULB Details the dynamic of upper resistance where Bears remain in control below the dynamic level. Below this limit bound (LB) , bears show strength – bear sentiment . A converging price toward this LB indicates bulls are present. Moving past this LB (a candle closed above) and successfully RETESTING newly formed support indicates a confirmed directional shift . Followed by printing a new BLLB in the next following candles with price continuing to rise above this failed SULB. A rejection below LB (a rejection/exhausted candle closed below LB) and successful RETEST reaffirms the resistance holds , indicating downside continuation . BLLB Details the dynamic of lower support where Bulls remain in control above the dynamic level. Above this LB, bulls show strength – bull sentiment . A converging price toward this LB signifies bears are present. Moving past this LB (a candle closed below) and successfully RETESTING newly formed resistance indicates a confirmed directional shift . Followed by printing a new SULB in the next following candles with price continuing to push lower below this failed BLLB. A rejection above LB (a rejection/exhausted candle closed above LB) and successful RETEST reaffirms the support holds , indicating upward continuation . Important Notes: Select preferred Entry’s Signal TF (ex. M3 TF, M5 TF for scalping strategy, M15 for intraday/daily strategy, 4H TF for day-to-weekly strategy, etc.). Always refer to the selected Entry’s TF for trading progress. Anticipate TP and SL by watching the range in this TF. Non-entry TFs are not for entry purposes. These multi-TFs are used for measuring strength, momentum, liquidity, positioning, structure – The market intends . The Non-entry TF is used to anticipate institutional executions and liquidity pools. These criteria MUST BE MET. A failed criterion suggests vague execution. Be patient and wait for clear validations. Institutions excel in creating illusions. SFS is designed to stand ready, calm, and execute with Clarity. SFS cuts through noise, distraction, and stays independent of NEWS, GEOPOLITIC, RUMORS, and herd mentality because all these are designed to mislead retail traders into institutional traps. When we see such ambiguity against the criteria, we know not to fall into the TRAP and become the liquidity FUEL. Stay sharp, only respond when signals are firmed. SFS is designed to counter Smart Money capitalism. It is about time to level the playing field.

JPY/USD – Clean Rejection from Mini Resistance | Bearish Move🔻 1. Major & Mini Resistance Zones Mini Resistance Zone: This is a key supply area that aligns with previous highs and recent structure points. As the price approaches this level, it tends to react due to unfilled sell orders and trapped buyers. The chart shows a rejection from this mini resistance zone — visible through strong bearish candles. This suggests institutional selling pressure has entered the market. Major Resistance is still untouched above, which becomes a clear invalidation level for any short bias. If price breaks and sustains above it, the bearish idea would be invalidated. 🔄 2. MMC (Mirror Market Concepts) at Work The MMC idea is clearly illustrated. The price movement after the last major drop is mirrored on the right side: Strong rally > Formation of lower highs > Resistance retest > Sharp decline These mirrored behaviors often hint at psychological repetition in the market, driven by trader memory and order placement. The bearish movement after retesting the mini resistance looks nearly identical to the previous leg on the left — reinforcing the idea that we may see a similar downside structure repeat. 🌀 3. Central Zone Area – Liquidity Trap and Reaction Point The Central Zone Area is labeled where a previous sharp bounce occurred. This zone is critical for several reasons: It acted as support multiple times. It’s also where a liquidity grab occurred — shown with a long wick — before a reversal rally. In current price action, this zone may again act as a magnet for price, as institutions seek liquidity to fuel further moves. Once price reaches it, expect a temporary bounce or reaction. 📐 4. 50% Fibonacci Retracement Confluence The projected target sits right on the 50% retracement level of the previous bullish leg. Institutions frequently target the 50%–61.8% Fibonacci zones to rebalance orders and create continuation moves. This target zone is marked in purple and is aligned with historical support, adding confluence. 📉 5. Sharp Bearish Reversal from Structure You can observe a very clear shift in momentum: The uptrend was broken with a strong bearish engulfing candle. That move wiped out several minor bullish structures — a sign of structure collapse. This breakdown, combined with the resistance rejection and MMC mirroring, strongly supports a bearish continuation bias. 📊 6. Previous Targets and Structure Memory The previous targets and historical swing points are not just annotations — they represent real zones of order flow memory. When price revisits these levels, you often see reactions (reversals, consolidations, or continuation). 🎯 Trade Plan (Based on Chart): Bias: Bearish Entry Zone: After rejection confirmation at mini resistance Target Zone: 0.00675 area (50% retracement) Invalidation: Close above 0.00715 (Major Resistance) ✅ Conclusion: This JPY/USD 4H chart beautifully showcases the power of technical structure, Mirror Market Concepts, and liquidity-focused trading. With a clean rejection from mini resistance, a history of mirrored bearish setups, and a confluence target at the 50% zone, this chart suggests a high-probability short opportunity for disciplined traders.

FILUSDT — the formation is repeating, the structure is familiar.Filecoin(FIL) - is a decentralized storage system with the goal of "storing humanity's most important information." During its initial coin offering (ICO) in 2017, the project raised $205 million. The launch was initially planned for mid-2019, but the mainnet launch date was postponed until block 148,888, which occurred on October 15, 2020. 📍 CoinMarketCap : #50 📍 Twitter(X) : 667.3K 🔍 What I observe: I’ve added the full trading history to the chart for better understanding (the chart on exchanges is cut off). The coin is liquid. I also added the prices for the public and private offerings. There’s a large horizontal channel, or more specifically, a channel within a channel, which has been active for about 1111 days. After another drop, a descending wedge formed, and now we are witnessing a breakout of its resistance (a retest is possible). These patterns are ones I regularly track and trade, based on personal experience accumulated over the years and my strategy. 📊 I’ve plotted the nearest resistances and target prices with movement percentage calculations. 💭 It’s quite possible that this formation in the lower part of the wedge, coinciding with the area of lows on the support of the outer channel, was used to gather liquidity and shake out weak hands. I also want to point out the large wicks in this zone - a characteristic pattern for accumulation points and subsequent reversals. ______ 📌 Not financial advice.

Textbook Reversal Setup: Liquidity Zone + Channel BreakReversal Setup Analysis: HTF Liquidity Zone + Ascending Channel Breakdown This chart highlights a high-probability bearish reversal setup based on key technical confluences. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the analysis: 1. High-Timeframe (HTF) Liquidity Zone (LQZ): - The red zone marks a major HTF supply area where price previously rejected with a strong impulsive move downward. This liquidity zone is critical as it represents an area where institutional players have shown activity, creating a high-probability region for a potential reversal. - As price approached this zone again, it did so in a corrective manner (via an ascending channel), which indicates weakening bullish momentum. 2. Impulsive vs. Corrective Structures: - Impulsive Move: The strong move away from the HTF LQZ (highlighted earlier in the chart) confirms bearish intent, serving as a key reference point for this trade idea. Corrective Structure: The price forms an ascending channel on the way back to retest the HTF LQZ, signaling exhaustion of buyers. - The third touch of the channel’s trendline coincides with the HTF LQZ, adding confluence for a potential bearish reversal. 3. Liquidity Zones in Play: - HTF Liquidity Zone (Supply): Serves as the key resistance level and primary rejection zone. - 15-Minute Liquidity Zone (Demand): Acts as a potential target for bearish momentum post-breakdown. - This multi-timeframe liquidity alignment strengthens the trade idea by providing clear areas of interest for entry, stop-loss, and take-profit placement. 4. Breakdown Entry and Structure: - Entry Trigger: The trade is triggered on the break of structure, where price falls through the lower boundary of the ascending channel. This breakdown confirms bearish momentum resuming after the corrective phase. - Stop-Loss Placement: Ideally placed above the HTF liquidity zone and beyond the third touch of the channel to account for potential fake-outs. - Take-Profit Levels: Targets can be set near the 15M liquidity zone or prior swing lows for a solid risk-to-reward ratio. 5. Key Takeaways: - This setup offers an excellent example of combining HTF liquidity zones, structural patterns, and market context to develop a high-probability trade idea. The rejection from the HTF LQZ aligns with the broader bearish narrative, while the ascending channel acts as a corrective structure leading to a continuation of the downward move. - By focusing on confluence factors like liquidity zones, impulsive vs. corrective moves, and structural breaks, this trade idea demonstrates a disciplined and strategic approach to trading reversals. Educational Insights: - Always zoom out to identify HTF zones of significance to ensure alignment with the larger market context. - Differentiate between impulsive and corrective structures to gauge the strength and intent of price movements. - Use pattern confluences (e.g., ascending channels) in combination with key zones to identify high-probability entries. - Prioritize patience and discipline by waiting for clear structural breaks to confirm your setup.

Gold's Next Big Move: Will XAUUSD Break Resistance or Crash? Chart 1: 4-Hour Timeframe Trend Analysis: The chart shows a clear upward trend, forming higher highs and higher lows. A wedge pattern is visible with converging trend lines indicating a potential breakout scenario. Key Levels: Support: Around 2348.248 (4hr LQZ). Resistance: Approximately 2412.240. Major Resistance: The upper trendline around 2480. Recent Price Action: The price has recently tested the lower trendline support and is currently retracing upwards. A lower high (LH) has formed around 2480, suggesting a potential reversal or consolidation phase. Potential Scenarios: Bullish: If the price breaks above the 2412 resistance, it may retest the upper trendline around 2480. Bearish: A break below the 4hr LQZ at 2348.248 could signal further downside towards the daily LQZ at 2267.320. Chart 2: 1-Hour Timeframe Trend Analysis: A shorter-term view confirming the upward trend with higher highs and higher lows. The formation of a wedge pattern indicates consolidation within a narrowing price range. Key Levels: Support: Around 2348.248 (4hr LQZ). Resistance: Approximately 2412.240, coinciding with the previous chart. Recent Price Action: Price recently bounced off the 4hr LQZ support level and is now hovering near the 2412 resistance. The lower high (LH) indicates sellers are stepping in around the 2412 level. Potential Scenarios: Bullish: Breaking and closing above 2412 could lead to further upside towards 2480. Bearish: Rejection at 2412 and a break below recent lows could target the 4hr LQZ support at 2348.248. Chart 3: 15-Minute Timeframe Trend Analysis: Short-term consolidation observed within a wedge pattern. Recent price action indicates potential for a breakout or breakdown from this pattern. Key Levels: Support: Around 2348.248 (4hr LQZ). Resistance: Approximately 2412.240. Recent Price Action: Price is consolidating just below the 2412 resistance level, forming a wedge pattern. The 15-minute timeframe shows the price struggling to break above 2412. Potential Scenarios: Bullish: A breakout above the wedge and 2412 resistance could lead to a quick move towards 2480. Bearish: A breakdown from the wedge could revisit the 4hr LQZ support at 2348.248. Conclusion The overall trend across multiple timeframes remains bullish with key resistance at 2412 and significant support at 2348.248. A break above 2412 could signal further upside towards 2480, while a failure to break and sustain above this level may lead to consolidation or a pullback to the 4hr LQZ support. Monitoring price action around these key levels will provide insights into the next directional move.

How to Use Liquidity Zones and Liquidity Voids in TradingHow to Use Liquidity Zones and Liquidity Voids in Trading Navigating the forex market demands a keen understanding of liquidity dynamics. This article delves into the critical concepts of liquidity zones and voids, offering traders insights into identifying areas of high trading activity and potential price gaps. Understanding Liquidity in Trading In trading, liquidity refers to the potential ease with which an asset can be bought or sold in the market without causing significant price changes. High liquidity means that there are enough buyers and sellers at any given price level, facilitating potentially smoother and more consistent transactions. This concept is critical because it affects how quickly and at what price a trader can enter or exit positions. Assets with high liquidity tend to have tighter spreads between the buy and sell prices, potentially reducing the cost of trading. Conversely, assets with low liquidity can experience abrupt price movements due to the lack of a steady flow of orders. Understanding the liquidity of an asset is essential for traders, as it impacts decision-making, potential returns, and risk management. These dynamics give rise to two important phenomena in trading: liquidity zones and voids. Liquidity zones are areas with a high concentration of trading activity, while liquidity voids represent gaps in the market where trading activity is sparse, each presenting unique opportunities and challenges in trading strategies. Liquidity Zones Explained Liquidity zones, sometimes known as liquidity levels, are specific areas on a price chart characterised by a significant concentration of trading activity, leading to elevated volumes of buy and sell orders. These zones are crucial for traders as they indicate areas where the asset's liquidity is higher, making it potentially easier to execute large orders with minimal impact on price. In the context of currency trading, forex liquidity zones are particularly important because they can highlight areas where currency pairs are more likely to experience favourable trading conditions, potentially offering clearer entry and exit points for traders. They may also be useful areas to watch for reversals or breakouts. The formation of these zones is often tied to historical price levels where the asset has previously seen considerable trading activity. They often serve as magnets for future trading, attracting more buy and sell orders due to traders' anticipation of potential price movements around these areas. Liquidity levels are commonly associated with support and resistance levels in technical analysis. When a price approaches a level, traders can expect increased order flow, leading to smoother price movements and potentially clearer signals for trading decisions. Identifying Liquidity Zones Liquidity zone trading hinges on the accurate identification of areas on the chart where trading activity is significantly concentrated. These levels not only highlight regions of high volume but also reflect potential pivot points for price action. Here's a closer look at three key techniques for identifying liquidity zones. Volume Profile This approach leverages the volume profile to map out where the bulk of trading activity has taken place. Unlike traditional volume indicators that display volume over time, the volume profile presents it across different price levels. This helps in identifying levels where the volume peaks, pointing towards areas of significant liquidity. To use the volume profile tool as we have in the picture above, head over to FXOpen’s free TickTrader platform and search for “Volume Profile Fixed Range” under the Indicators tab. Price Consolidation Areas Recognising zones where the price has consolidated for a notable period is another effective method. These areas represent a tug-of-war between buyers and sellers, resulting in a high volume of trades. Such levels often act as magnets for future price action, making them critical for liquidity area trading. Previous Support and Resistance Levels Historical support and resistance levels are invaluable for spotting zones. These are levels at which significant reversals or pauses in trend have occurred, indicating areas where large volumes of orders may accumulate. When price approaches these levels again, it often does so with increased trading activity, making them prime candidates for liquidity areas. Liquidity Voids and Their Impact Liquidity voids, sometimes known as an imbalance, represent significant moments in the forex market, marked by rapid price movements between two levels without the typical intermediary trading activity. These gaps in liquidity can lead to abrupt changes in price, often visualised as large jumps on a chart, which can have profound impacts on trading strategies and market analysis. A liquidity void in forex signals a temporary absence of balance between buyers and sellers, resulting in a sharp move as the market seeks to find equilibrium at a new price level. This phenomenon often occurs after major news releases, during off-market hours, or as a result of large institutional trades that can move the market significantly with a single order. The impact of voids extends beyond their immediate appearance on a chart; they represent areas where the market has not established a consensus on price, potentially leading to increased volatility as the market later attempts to "fill" these voids. The concept of moving back to fill an imbalance is rooted in the idea that prices eventually return to levels where previously unmet trade orders exist, seeking to balance the earlier absence of trading activity. For traders, these voids offer both challenges and opportunities. They must navigate the increased volatility and unpredictability associated with these gaps but can also strategise to take advantage of the potential return to equilibrium. Types of Liquidity Voids Liquidity voids in the forex market manifest in various forms, each with distinct characteristics and implications for traders. Understanding the different types of voids may aid traders in navigating these challenging areas more effectively. Here are some notable types: Common Liquidity Voids These are the most frequently encountered liquidity voids, appearing randomly across the forex chart without any apparent trigger from market news or events. They appear typically due to the natural market ebb and flow. Common voids may not always carry significant insights but must be navigated carefully to manage risk effectively. Exhaustion Liquidity Voids These imbalances appear at the end of a trend and signal a potential reversal. They occur when the momentum starts to wane, and the price makes a final push before reversing direction. Exhaustion voids are particularly noteworthy because they often indicate the end of a market move, providing strategic entry or exit points for traders who can identify them early. Breakout Liquidity Voids Characterised by a sudden price movement out of a range or through a significant level of support or resistance, breakout voids can signal the beginning of a new trend. They are formed when the price action breaks through a key level with enough force to leave behind an imbalance. This type of void may offer favourable opportunities for traders who catch the breakout early. Runaway Liquidity Voids These occur within an existing trend and signify its continuation. Runaway voids appear as the market makes a significant move in the direction of the trend, bypassing levels where liquidity might have been expected. Identifying these voids can help traders to confirm the strength and sustainability of a trend. How to Use Liquidity Zones and Voids for Trading Utilising zones and voids can significantly refine a trader's approach, offering insights into potential future market movements and reversal points. Liquidity zones, rich with trading activity, act as magnets attracting the price towards them. Traders closely watch these areas not only for placing orders but also for setting a bias over time. The inherent magnet-like properties of these levels reflect areas where the price is likely to move, providing a strategic advantage in anticipating market direction. On the other hand, liquidity voids present opportunities rooted in the market's tendency to 'fill' these gaps. The knowledge that prices are likely to return to these imbalances enables traders to anticipate and capitalise on potential price movements as these voids are addressed. When combined, the concepts of zones and voids offer a lens through which price action can be analysed. For instance, when the price reaches a liquidity area, it may signal the market's attempt to fill a nearby imbalance that remains untraded. This interaction between the zone's magnetic pull and the void's filling potential can inform strategic trade placements and expectations about trend reversals or continuations. While it may not be feasible to base an entire trading strategy on these concepts alone, integrating the analysis of liquidity zones and voids into a broader trading plan can offer valuable insights. This integration helps identify where the market might head next and pinpoint probable reversal areas, potentially enhancing the trader's ability to make informed decisions. Limitations of Liquidity Zones and Voids Understanding liquidity zones and voids provides traders with valuable insights into market dynamics, yet relying solely on these concepts comes with limitations. Here are some specific challenges to consider: Market Volatility: High market volatility can disrupt the usual patterns of zones and voids, making it difficult to rely on historical data for future analysis. Influence of External Events: Major economic announcements or geopolitical events can override the expected behaviour within these areas, leading to unpredictable market movements. Timeframe Sensitivity: The relevance of zones and voids can vary significantly across different timeframes, potentially misleading traders who do not adjust their analysis accordingly. False Signals: Both patterns can occasionally produce false signals, prompting traders to enter or exit positions prematurely. The Bottom Line Understanding liquidity zones and voids can be a critical skill for navigating the forex market effectively. These concepts reveal notable areas of market activity, offering insights into potential price movements. However, incorporating them into a broader trading strategy is crucial due to their inherent limitations. For traders seeking to apply these insights in real-time, opening an FXOpen account could provide a practical platform to explore and leverage the dynamics of liquidity in their trading endeavours across hundreds of tradable assets. FAQs What Are Liquidity Zones? Liquidity zones are specific areas on a trading chart characterised by a high concentration of trading activity, making them critical points for market entry and exit. These areas indicate where significant buying and selling have occurred, reflecting areas of strong support or resistance. They play a pivotal role in determining market direction and are essential for traders looking to capitalise on areas of high liquidity. How Do We Identify Liquidity Zones in Trading? Liquidity zones can be identified using several methods, including volume profile analysis, observing areas of price consolidation, and examining historical support and resistance levels. These techniques help traders spot areas where trading activity is concentrated, offering insights into potential entry and exit points. How Are Trade Liquidity Zones Traded? Trading liquidity zones involves monitoring these areas for signs of price potential stability or movement. Traders can use liquidity levels to set strategic entry and exit points, leveraging the high volume of trades to minimise slippage. Additionally, understanding the relationship between liquidity zones and voids can help traders anticipate market movements and adjust their strategies accordingly. What Are Liquidity Voids? Liquidity voids are areas in the market where trading activity is sparse or absent, leading to abrupt price movements between two levels. They occur due to an imbalance in buy and sell orders, often following significant news events or during off-market hours, creating opportunities for the price to rapidly adjust to new levels.

ATOM is Recharging the Fuel for its flight to CosmosHey there! So I've just seen an amazing analysis of BINANCE:ATOMUSDT by the "Swallow Crypto" trading team named SwallowPremium on TradingView (I'd give you the link but my rating doesn't give me a chance yet, so just look at the linked Idea) . Shout out to you guys! And I've found some more nuances to it I'd like to share. The guys suppose we might be right at the Liquidity grab zone right now, and go up from here, as we've got to the same zone where we've been in June within a quick spike down and I totally agree with them. However, looking on a bigger picture, June 22' zone seems a lot more interesting for the big guys to enter, having in consideration this green indicator that shows Big Buys. We're currently facing Medium buys already, so the Fuel is slowly recharging, but it's still hard to name this zone as the Gas Station. I will update you when the Big Guys will come in, so you can just follow me to be updated. My guess is that we've Just been welcomed in the Entrance zone that started on 7,1 but may go deeper all the way to ˜5,8 or even ˜5,5 and will be formed within the next month or two within the tip of almost 1 year old Descending Wedge and from there we'll make a good old breakout. However, i don't consider ATOM to be a short speculation project, so getting in by now and DCA-ing within the dips sounds cool to me. P.S. Zooming out to the on-cycle view and considering 2023 not to be a final bottom, theoretically we currently are in the wedge inside of the wedge. If so, we will break out to ˜14,5 and go down to the Nadir... To the zones where "crypto is dead" will return back. To sub $2 ATOM.. Oh man I wonder if it's just the fantasy of the trippy mind or is it Groening mode on full send mode. What do You think? 👁️ A.I.Vision

Is MANA heading to $2.30 or $1.00MANA broke two crucial supports: the first at $1.68 & the second at $1.50. Between $1.50 and $1.07 there is not some significant support to stop the price from a possible fall. The next important supports is at $1.08 and the liquidity zone between $1.07 – 0.92. Resistance at $1.68 has tested a few days ago…so the likelihood of a return to this level is low, not impossible. In the short-term, of course. Be careful with your high leveraged shorts. 1) Market is in extreme fear 2) We are nearer the bottom than the top 3) In 4H LTF formed a local demand zone These are not good signs for (long-term) shorts. On the other hand, today’s candle closes below $1.34. • If you are looking for short entries wait for a return to $1.50 or near $1.68 and a bearish confirmation candle. Stop loss or alert above $1.50 Take profit at the liquidity zone • If you are looking for long entries, near $1.00 or below is a good price.

LINK at Crucial Support. What to do!LINK broke $10 important support in relatively high volume. Entire crypto market is in panic, a beautiful indication that we are approaching the bottom. • To begin the uptrend LINK needs to regain, in a short period of time, $10 level. • I don’t suggest to short LINK now, cause it’s already near to a bottom. It’s wise to wait for a break and test $7.50 as resistance before taking a short. • You can add some LINK in your HODL portfolio at $7.50 only if you are intent on holding them, even if it goes below $4.90. Stay out of leveraged trading, market is too risky and volatile. Thanks for reading this! Remember investing is a probability game. Not a financial advice. Always do your own research.
