GME Solid V: The Transition — From Sons to Guns Of LiquidityPreface
This is not a prediction.
This is a structural update.
GME is not in confirmed markup — but for the first time in a long time, the behavior is no longer purely compressive. What we are seeing now is a potential transition phase in the broader regime.
This builds directly on prior ideas I’ve referred to as the “Sons of Liquidity” and the “Guns of Liquidity.”

Macro Context
On the 3M structure, price remains in the upper portion of Quadrant 2 .
This is historically an area of:
• supply interaction
• acceptance battles
• regime decisions
Quadrant 2 has consistently acted as a ceiling in prior cycles.
That makes current behavior here meaningful.
---
From Sons to Guns
In prior posts, I described:
Sons of Liquidity → passive / defensive participants
• defending levels
• absorbing supply
• preventing breakdown
Guns of Liquidity → initiative / offensive participants
• pushing price
• creating expansion
• driving trend
For most of this structure, GME has been dominated by Sons of Liquidity — holding the line, but not advancing it.
What we are beginning to see now is:
early evidence that the Guns may be stepping in

Phantom Pain Trendline — Structural Shift
The “Phantom Pain” trendline has acted as a long-term suppressive structure.
Recent behavior:
• Weekly close above the trendline
• Follow-through acceptance above it
• No immediate rejection back below
This marks the first sustained break in that suppression.
---
Anchored VWAP Ladder
Two key anchored VWAPs define the current structure:
• August 2024 AVWAP → now acting as support
• May 2024 AVWAP → acting as resistance
Recent behavior:
• Acceptance above the August AVWAP
• Repeated tests into the May AVWAP
• Wicks into resistance, but no breakdown
This is no longer passive defense alone — this is pressure building upward.
---
Fib Channel — 0.382 Acceptance
Price has now shown sustained acceptance above the 0.382 fib channel band .
Historically:
• This level rejected price
• Acceptance was not sustained
Now:
• Multiple weekly closes above
• No immediate failure
This is a change in behavior, not just a test.
---
Volume Behavior
Key structural pushes are occurring on:
• Volume above the 20-period average
• Increased participation on upward moves
This suggests a shift from:
defensive absorption → early initiative demand
---
Current Structure
Price is now positioned between:
• Lower support → August 2024 AVWAP
• Upper resistance → May 2024 AVWAP
• Above Phantom Pain suppression
• Holding above key fib structure
This is not pure compression anymore.
This is controlled consolidation after a structural break .
---
Interpretation
This is not confirmed markup.
This is:
transition
A possible shift from:
• Sons of Liquidity (defense)
→ toward
• Guns of Liquidity (initiative)
But the transition is not complete.
---
What Confirms the Shift
For this to evolve into true expansion:
• Acceptance above the May 2024 AVWAP
• Continued holds above 0.382
• Expansion into lower-volume areas above
• Higher lows forming above current structure
This would signal that initiative demand has taken control.
---
What Signals Failure
If the structure breaks:
• Loss of the August 2024 AVWAP
• Breakdown below 0.382
• Return below Phantom Pain
Then the market reverts back to:
Sons of Liquidity only — defense without progression
---
Takeaway
For most of this cycle, GME has been defined by defense.
Now, for the first time in a while, it is showing signs of transition toward offense .
That does not guarantee direction.
But it does change the environment.
And in changing environments:
process and patience matter more than prediction.

NNDM — Channel Structure, Volume Compression, and the Next TestThis chart is intentionally simple. The only indicators shown are volume, volume profile, the 8/13/48 EMAs, and the rising price channel . I’ve also marked a Supply and Demand (SnD) zone between $2.10 and $2.27 .
The goal here is to focus on structure and participation , not indicator clutter.
Note: I linked the previous NNDM charts.
Indicator Legend
Green EMA = 48 EMA
Pink EMA = 13 EMA
Red EMA = 8 EMA
Volume Compression
Volume has been consistently below both the 20MA and 50MA of volume , which indicates participation has been declining as price has climbed.
This does not necessarily invalidate the move, but it tells us something important: the markup phase so far has been driven more by lack of selling pressure than strong buying pressure .
Low volume during a climb can work for a while, but eventually the market needs participation to sustain momentum.
Channel Structure
Despite the lower participation, price has been respecting the upward channel very cleanly .
The structure is currently producing:
Higher highs
Higher lows
Pullbacks finding support within the channel
This is constructive behavior and suggests the market is still in a recovery phase after the 2025 breakdown .
However, the strength of this move still needs confirmation.
EMA Behavior
The 8, 13, and 48 EMAs are all trending upward and are currently acting as dynamic structure levels.
Price is interacting with them in a fairly typical pattern for a controlled trend:
The 48 EMA is acting as deeper support
The 8 EMA and 13 EMA are acting as near-term resistance or compression points
This compression often precedes expansion, but the direction of that expansion will depend on how price handles the next key area.
Liquidity Vacuum
Between the current price and the $2+ range , the volume profile shows relatively thin participation .
This creates a liquidity vacuum , meaning price can move quickly through this area if momentum builds.
But once price reaches the $2.10–$2.27 zone , the situation changes.
The Supply and Demand Zone ($2.10–$2.27)
I’ve marked this region as an SnD zone .
For this move to demonstrate real strength, price must:
Enter this zone
Establish support somewhere within it
If the market can accept value inside this range, the probability increases that price will continue higher and eventually challenge the larger structural level.
Until that happens, this area should be viewed as overhead supply .
The Bigger Picture
Above this zone sits the larger test:
$2.51 — the regime change level
Until price can reclaim and establish support above $2.51 , the macro structure remains unresolved.
For now, the market is moving upward within a well-defined channel, but it still needs to prove that buyers are willing to accept higher value.
GME Solid V: The Phantom Structure — Process Over Noise
Personal Preface: Process and Patience
At some point in trading, the noise becomes overwhelming.
You realize both price and fake financial gurus ("FURUs") are trying to lead you — and if you let them, they will lead you straight into financial oblivion.
Modern markets are heavily influenced by algorithms designed to exploit emotion and reaction. Meanwhile many FURUs amplify the noise because their goal is selling courses, subscriptions, or Discord memberships.
What traders actually need is something very different:
A community and a process that emphasize patience, structure, and disciplined thinking.
When you trust your process, the noise fades.
It doesn’t disappear — but it stops influencing your decisions.
An important realization follows:
A process is not immutable. It evolves.
Markets evolve.
The algorithms interacting with those markets evolve.
Your tools and frameworks must evolve with them.
When you truly trust your process, you begin to enjoy refining it. You experiment. You test ideas. You explore tools others overlook.
Eventually you develop ways of seeing structure that bring clarity — even when others disagree with the conclusion.
And that clarity is what matters.
Process vs Patience
Process is actually the easy part.
Patience is much harder.
Especially when FURUs constantly shout predictions like:
• "GME is going to $17."
• "GME is going to $33."
Point & Figure charts helped me develop patience because they remove the constant distraction of time and focus purely on price structure and participation.
The clarity this provides can be surprising.
Markets love forming large structures — and within those structures they form smaller ones.
These nested structures can fake traders out repeatedly. Without patience, traders react to the smaller moves and lose sight of the larger framework.
Macro Structure on GME
This chart highlights how clear the structure becomes when you step back.
The upper panel shows the Point & Figure structure , which removes time and emphasizes price movement and participation.
The lower panel shows the monthly candle structure for additional context.
Several structural elements stand out.
1. Overhead Supply
The red zone represents persistent supply that has capped multiple advances since the 2021 impulse move.
Point & Figure makes this structure very clear — repeated columns failing to expand through the same region.
2. Demand Structure
The green zone highlights an area where responsive buyers have repeatedly defended price.
Each test of this region has produced a reaction higher.
This behavior suggests demand absorption, but not yet decisive markup.
3. Structural Compression
The descending trendline shows how supply continues pressing downward toward demand.
At some point these forces intersect.
Markets do not remain in compression forever.
4. Structure Within Structure
Inside the larger macro structure, GME continues forming smaller structures that repeatedly:
• test demand
• test supply
• produce false breakouts
Without understanding the larger framework, traders can easily get chopped up reacting to these smaller moves.
Takeaway
The macro structure here is actually quite clear.
GME is trading inside a large compression regime defined by:
• persistent overhead supply
• responsive demand support
• progressively tightening structure
Environments like this tend to produce noise, fakeouts, and emotional trading decisions.
But when viewed through the lens of process and patience, the structure becomes much easier to understand.
And that clarity is the real advantage.
GME Solid: Sons of Liquidity — Weekly Structure
Note:
This is part of a series this chart references prior charts so you might want to read them to better absorb the information presented
Note on Current Noise Around GME:
There has been a noticeable increase in social media noise around GME lately — particularly bold directional claims made without structural context. This post is not an attempt to predict where GME is headed. The goal is to frame the current structure so traders can identify higher-quality entries, exits, and risk management points.
Blanket calls that GME is “going to $17” or “going to $33” — without clearly mapping the intervening levels and conditions — oversimplify a very technical tape. While those outcomes are always possible in a volatile name like GME, they ignore the reality that price typically interacts with multiple decision zones along the way.
Based on the current structure, levels such as 20.41, 25.48, 28.13, and 31.83 represent meaningful areas where order flow and participation can shift. Price may accelerate through them — or pivot sharply at any of them.
As much as I would like the price to go to 17 for cheap accumulation, we value process and patience over prediction, emotions and calling out the low.
Having said that let's proceed.
Preface
This is a weekly structural read, building on the prior macro and monthly work. The focus here is price behavior around key inflection zones and what current participation suggests about regime conditions.
This is not predictive and not financial advice — the goal is to document structure, not forecast outcomes.
Weekly Context
On the weekly timeframe, GME continues to trade within the broader corrective structure outlined in prior posts.
Price has largely rotated between:
the 0.382 retracement (~20.41) of the 2024 impulse
and the golden pocket resistance region
More recently, price has also spent time below the 0.5 retracement, reinforcing the idea that upside momentum remains contested.
The “Sons of Liquidity” — Demand Defense
One of the more notable behaviors on the weekly is the repeated responsive defense near 20.41 (0.382) and the associated demand zone.
These responsive buyers — what I’m referring to as the “Sons of Liquidity” — have consistently appeared as price approaches lower channel structure.
Key observations:
Demand tests tend to show higher relative volume
Downside probes are often contained and reclaimed
Price repeatedly rotates back toward equilibrium after tests lower
This behavior suggests active demand participation at lower levels.
Supply Behavior (The Phantom Pain Still Exists)
At the same time, overhead supply — the previously identified Phantom Pain structure — continues to cap advances.
However, relative to demand behavior:
Supply rejections have generally occurred on lighter volume
Upside failures have lacked strong expansion
Price has continued to compress rather than trend cleanly lower
Taken together, the current tape suggests that demand defense has recently been more active than supply pressure, though neither side has achieved decisive control.
Regime Read — Declining Energy Absorption
The most consistent interpretation of the current structure is declining energy absorption within a controlled range.
Evidence supporting this view:
Repeated demand defense without sustained markup
Overhead supply still respected
Weekly volume flattening (and declining on shorter averages)
CVD behavior remaining compressed rather than trending
Price continuing to rotate between key retracement bands
This profile aligns more closely with late-stage compression than with clean distribution or confirmed re-accumulation.
Momentum Context (RSI)
Momentum has improved modestly on the weekly.
RSI has:
previously shown bullish divergence
reclaimed the EMA
moved back above the 50 midpoint
and has so far held that region on pullbacks
This represents momentum repair, but not yet full bullish regime expansion.
For a stronger momentum confirmation, RSI would need to:
hold above 50 consistently
and begin pushing into higher bull-range territory
Bottom-Line Read:
Current weekly structure continues to reflect:
active responsive demand near lower structure
persistent but not dominant overhead supply
and gradually declining participation within the range
Until one side achieves clear acceptance beyond the current boundaries, the tape continues to favor rotation and compression over directional expansion, and trade efficiency remains limited in the middle of the structure.
