Why Higher Timeframe Analysis Increases Your WIN-RATE!Many traders focus too heavily on lower timeframes, chasing setups without any real context. But what if the secret to improving your consistency was as simple as zooming out? In this video, we break down why analyzing higher timeframes—and trading in their direction—can significantly increase your win rate across Forex, crypto, stocks, and futures. This isn’t just a theory. It’s a principle used by institutional traders, prop firms, and consistently profitable independent traders. ✅ Here’s what you’ll learn in this deep-dive: The real purpose of higher timeframe analysis and how it acts like a GPS for your trading decisions. How to identify structure, liquidity, and key levels on the daily, 4H, and weekly charts Why trading against the higher timeframe flow often leads to premature stop-outs or fakeouts The power of multi-timeframe alignment: how to sync HTF bias with LTF entries How trading with higher timeframe momentum helps filter noise, reduce overtrading, and increase conviction A walkthrough example showing how to use HTF context to validate a lower timeframe setup Whether you're trading ICT concepts, Fibs, RSI, VWAP, or your own system—this principle applies. Trading in alignment with the higher timeframe doesn’t just increase your odds, it adds structure, patience, and confidence to your process. 📌 Key takeaway: When you understand what the market is doing on the higher timeframe, you stop guessing and start positioning yourself with the move—not against it. 🛠️ Helpful for traders using: Smart money concepts (SMC) ICT-based models (like AMD, OTE, and NDOG) Supply and demand strategies Price action or indicator-based systems PRACTICALLY ANY TYPE OF STRATEGY OR METHODOLOGY So, I hope the video was insightful for you.

EURUSD - Potential Bearish ContinuationEURUSD recently tapped into a 4-hour Fair Value Gap, aligning perfectly with a prior liquidity sweep just above the recent swing high. This zone acted as a magnet for buy-side liquidity, and price reacted sharply once that liquidity was taken out. The rejection confirms this area was used by larger players to offload positions rather than push higher. Rejection and Structure Shift After the sweep and tap into the FVG, we saw an immediate and aggressive bearish reaction, signaling a clear rejection of higher prices. Momentum flipped decisively, breaking smaller structural points on the way down. The rejection is not just technical, it’s reactive, showing that the intent was never to sustain the breakout. Break of Support Zone and Bearish Setup Price is now testing the critical mid-range structure marked in red. This zone previously held as support multiple times, but it is now under pressure. If we get a clean 4H close below this area, it confirms a market structure shift and opens the door for further downside. Bearish Target and Liquidity Zone Below If the break confirms, the next logical move would be a push down into the broader support area below. That zone holds untapped liquidity and marks the base of the recent rally. A sweep of those lows would align perfectly with the narrative of a failed breakout, followed by a deeper correction. Conclusion The rejection from the 4H Fair Value Gap, combined with a liquidity sweep and a pending structure break, builds a clean bearish case. A confirmed close below the marked zone would shift this into a continuation setup, with expectations for a move toward the lower support and a potential sweep of the lows.

Bitcoin - Bears in control: Back to $103kPrice just swept the 1-hour and 4-hour swing highs, grabbing liquidity from anyone who had stops above the high. This was followed by an immediate and aggressive selloff, showing a clear bearish displacement. That move confirms smart money was unloading into retail longs, and we now have a shift in momentum pointing down. Liquidity Sweep and Displacement Context The sweep of the high was immediately followed by a strong bearish displacement. There was no hesitation after the breakout, which confirms this wasn’t a real breakout but a stop hunt. The reaction tells us that price was tapping into a key supply area or simply running out of buying interest above the high. This kind of rejection usually signals that smart money is positioning for a move lower. Fair Value Gap and Pullback Zone The drop left behind a clear 1-hour Fair Value Gap, sitting just below the swept high, between roughly $105,600 and $106,000. Price hasn’t returned to it yet, which opens the possibility for a short-term retracement back into that imbalance before continuation. That FVG becomes the main short entry zone, if price trades back into it, it’s likely to reject again. Bearish Target and Market Structure Outlook If we retrace into the FVG and reject, I expect a break of the recent short-term low around $104,300. That level will act as the first sign of bearish continuation. If that goes, there’s clean liquidity sitting below near the higher-timeframe low in the $103,600 zone. That’s the larger target for this setup, sweeping those lows would complete the move. Conclusion This is a clean high sweep followed by strong displacement and an unfilled FVG. If price trades back into that imbalance and shows rejection, I’m expecting continuation lower, with targets at $104,300 and ultimately down to $103,600. ___________________________________ Thanks for your support!

EUR/GBP at a Tipping Point: Key Demand Zone or Breakdown Ahead?The EUR/GBP cross is currently trading in a key technical area, hovering around 0.8427, showing signs of mild recovery after a bullish reaction from a previously tested demand zone. 📊 Technical Analysis Price action reveals a compression phase within a descending channel (corrective flag), followed by a breakout to the upside last week. Price reached the supply zone between 0.8480 and 0.8535, which triggered a strong bearish candle rejection. Currently, the pair is testing support around 0.8400–0.8380, a level previously defended by buyers. The RSI bounced from oversold territory, suggesting the potential for a consolidation phase or sideways movement, rather than a clear divergence. 📌 Key Levels Dynamic Resistance: 0.8480 – 0.8535 Structural Support: 0.8380 – 0.8285 Upside breakout target (if momentum builds): 0.8660 📅 Seasonality Historically, June tends to be slightly bullish for EUR/GBP, especially on the 5-year and 10-year seasonal patterns. Curves indicate upward pressure between the second and third weeks of the month, suggesting that any retracement could present a seasonal long opportunity. 💼 COT Report Euro FX Non-Commercials reduced both longs (-1.7K) and shorts (-6.7K) → signaling indecision or rebalancing. Net positioning remains positive, but momentum is fading. British Pound Non-Commercials added significantly to longs (+14.2K) and slightly to shorts (+2.8K) → GBP is attracting bullish interest. This could reduce upside pressure on EUR/GBP in the short term. Overall, COT data currently favors the British Pound in the near term. 📈 Retail Sentiment Retail traders are heavily skewed to the long side (74% long), which may create contrarian downside pressure if the market moves against the crowd. The average entry price is around 0.8481, meaning many traders are currently underwater. 🎯 Conclusion & Bias Outlook Short-term bias: Neutral to bearish down to 0.8380 Mid-term bias: Moderately bullish if price holds above 0.8380 with higher lows confirmation Ideal long entry could emerge from a retest of 0.8380 with bullish confirmation (candlestick or RSI support) Alternatively, a clear H4 close below 0.8380 could open space down to 0.8280
