Accumulation Reversal Distribution on EURUSD

FX_IDC:EURUSD   Euro / U.S. Dollar
I wanted to take a moment and train myself into recognizing the ICT accumulation / reversal / distribution. We can see this pattern come back to us on many occasions but this one is particularly easy to spot and so I'll happily take this chance to set this in stone for later reference.

Inside fractals
We have got buy and sell fractals generally consisting of:
  • Initial consolidation/accumulation
  • Run towards support/resistance
  • SM reversal
  • Low risk buy/sell
  • Redistribution or Re-accumulation

Important notes:
  • Fractals can occur within fractals
  • Marketmaker sellsetups can take place within larger buysetups and vice versa
  • It does not necessarily have to have the same amount of 'steps'
  • Worse even, it can happen that the normal re-accumulation, which you'd expect to happen, will not take place. This is often due to the larger timeframe premise, you should have been aware of in the first place.
  • The larger timeframes are dominant to smaller ones.

I'm sorry for the resolution at which this got printed, I think this is due to my fancy retina-screen. Here's a screenshot:
