"Everything starts with consolidation": IPDA (Interbank Price Delivery Algorithms) keeps the price within a range. This allows liquidity to accumulate above the consolidation range in the form of buy orders and below the consolidation range in the form of sell orders. This phase is known as the accumulation phase. Subsequently, IPDA reprices above the...
This example is on paper company Gevo inc - manufacturing. Chemical industry. Specialized chemicals. I will say that I combined the training idea with the trading one , how the stocks will be relevant for trading now, the potential first profit with confirmation of support can be about + 90%. Everything that happens now, goals, read below under the...
Based on my research into IPDA and algorithms, central banks, trading firms/hedge funds, and smaller banks use execution algos (EAs) for trading with different objectives. Small banks use EAs to split large parent orders into smaller child orders generally in one direction, buy or sell. These orders are executed separately over a period of time to either open or...
We all know that markets are highly manipulated and the traders have to look for a signs of manipulation. There are a lot of types of manipulation - imbalance, candle without wick, liquidity grab and so on. On the chart I marked few areas, where price was manipulated and reversed. The strategy shows you how to recognise the manipulation patterns. It is based on...
Hello traders In this example, we will explain how to trade with the trend and use liquidity as an additional confluence. 1) Price makes a new higher high, momentum is present. 2) After momentum, the price begins to create liquidity, as we talked about in one of the previous posts. Liquidity is a trap for retail and other traders. 3) We see that this is...
Reminiscent of the roaring 1920s, the 2020 epidemic and the inability to work for many people brought an influx of new retail investors to the public market. Furthermore, the FED's decision to prop up the market by dropping interest rates combined with stimulus checks handed out by the U.S. government lured in even more investors who were hungry for profits....
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...
Ever find yourself agreeing with someone who complains about rampant market manipulation, even though you don't really know how it happens or where it comes from? If so, do not feel embarrassed; the person complaining about it probably doesn't know either. The truth is that the practice is so blatant and routine these days that it hides in plain sight. That, or...
Hello everyone! Today I want to discuss with you a very interesting topic - the traps of market makers. Let's get started. Traps… How often did you encounter this - you opened a position, and why did the price go sharply against you, knocking out your stop loss, and as soon as your position was closed with a loss, the price turned around again and went where...
I'm going to do my best here at explaining the basics around a liquidity grab (some times called a stop hunt), why it happens and how it works (ignore the chart I'm using, I'm not saying this is a manipulated move just showing you an example of how it works) I often refer to this in my playbook as an STL "Sweep The Legs" coupled with a picture of Johnny Lawrence...
I made the trading idea about this coin about trading in the channel this afternoon, and I remembered the miracles on the roller coaster of 2.5 years ago on this coin. After all, such games rarely come across in the market to leave such a colorful mark in memories. You do not often see pumps at 19 and 82 x, after accumulating 88 and 100 days. The numbers are not...
🎡 FOREX MARKET MANIPULATION 👾 What is the first thing you learned when you started your journey in the forex market? I will answer for the majority, Support/Resistance, trendlines, chart patterns and etc Have you ever asked yourself why is it so common? When we are introduced to the foreign exchange, we are thrown in a deep ocean with a lot of...
Traps : When price is manipulated in order to capture liquidity, with misinformation, for instance in this case the buy orders @ 139.800 were completely hidden from the market, meaning information is not available at all for retail traders, why did they do this? In order to accumulate liquidity and give fake hopes to buyers, accumulating all positions with "Fake...
The markup says it all. Do YOU believe in forex patterns? I don't.
Another example of price manipulation. To put it in simple terms, most traders lose money. Ever wonder why? Well... Look at the charts! Don't take my word for it. I don't control the price... But I know who does! Who has the most money? It ain't retail traders.
First of all, thank you to TradingView for allowing me to stream! In addition, hello and welcome to all the newest followers! Here is a prime example of market manipulation that I explained the other day on my first TradingView Stream. I look forward to showing you guys more examples in the future! Have a blessed day, Jon Fibonacci
Yesterday, there was a big dump 📉. Who would have expected that? Well --- you could say that after the battle, everyone is a general. But in this case, there were some decent clues which were, perhaps, ignored? I looked at the situation retrospectively. After the rally, a small retracement hasn't managed to establish strong bottom support yet to bounce even...
Here is a chart of the put to call ratio when compared with NASDAQ's ETF, QQQ. When the line is at the bottom of the PC chart, that means market participants are net short. When at the top, they are net long. I'm sure we've all heard the saying that market makers usually take the other side of the trade. This chart shows that this is a true. When stocks are...
