Trading GBPUSD EURUSD | Judas Swing Strategy 29/09/2025This week, the Judas Swing strategy delivered another set of textbook lessons on patience, execution, and discipline. We had two clear setups unfold on FX:GBPUSD and FX:EURUSD and both gave us valuable insight into how the market manipulates liquidity before revealing its true direction. On Monday FX:GBPUSD initially consolidated during the Judas Swing period, giving us the perfect framework to anticipate manipulation. As the session started, we saw liquidity taken above the high of the Judas Swing zone. From there, we immediately shifted our focus to potential selling opportunities. Once structure broke to the downside, all eyes were on the retrace into the imbalance left behind. We knew from experience that patience is key here, sometimes price runs away without giving the pullback, and forcing an entry in those situations usually leads to regret. This time, we got the perfect retrace. Once price tapped back into the FVG and the candle closed, our short was executed with a clean 1% risk. The market briefly hovered near our entry, but the setup held strong. Soon after price dropped decisively, reaching our target and securing a solid 2% gain. On Tuesday FX:EURUSD gave us a slightly different picture but the same Judas Swing principles applied. Price first ran the zone lows, grabbing liquidity before reversing sharply. Once we spotted that break of structure to the upside, our game plan was straightforward: wait for the retrace into imbalance, and execute. The market made it easy this time, with zero to no drawdown, price quickly reversed in our favor, running straight to our target for another +2R trade. Both FX:GBPUSD and FX:EURUSD reminded us why the Judas Swing strategy works, the markets lure traders into chasing breakouts before reversing into the true move of the day. By waiting for the sweep, confirmation, and retrace, we put ourselves on the right side of the move with defined risk. Two trades, two wins, and another week of staying disciplined to the plan. Consistency doesn’t come from predicting every market move, it comes from following a strategy that stacks the odds in your favor.

Profitable Multiple Time Frames Smart Money Strategy For Trading In this post, I will share with you a very accurate and profitable SMC Smart Money trading strategy that combines top-down analysis, liquidity, imbalance, order block and inducement. Step 1 - Identify liquidity zones on a daily Liquidity zones are the areas on a price chart, where big players are placing their orders. From such areas, significant bullish and bearish movements initiate. Liquidity zones that are above the current price will be the supply zones, while the liquidity zones that are below the current price will be the demand zones. We will look for shorting opportunities from supply areas and for buying opportunities from demand zones. Here are the liquidity zones that I identified on EURJPY. Step 2 - Wait for a test of one of the liquidity zones Let the market test the liquidity zone. For buying, the price should reach a lower boundary of a demand zone. For shorting, the price should test an upper boundary of a supply zone. I underlined the exact levels that the price should test on EURJPY. Here is the test of the lower boundary of the demand zone. Step 3 - Look for inducement on an hourly time frame With the inducement, smart money make the market participants think that the liquidity zone that the price is testing doesn't hold anymore. When the price tests a supply area, an hourly candle close above its upper boundary will be a bullish inducement. With that, the smart money incentivize buying orders. When the price tests a demand area, an hourly candle close below its lower boundary will be a bearish inducement. With that, the smart money incentivize selling orders. The price closed below a lower boundary of a demand zone on EURJPY on 1H time frame. Step 4 - Look for imbalance on an hourly time frame After a violation of a supply area on an hourly time frame, look for a bearish imbalance. Bearish imbalance is a strong bearish candle with wide range and big body. With that candle, the market should return within a supply zone and closed within or below that. After a violation of a demand area on an hourly time frame, look for a bullish imbalance. Bullish imbalance is a strong bullish candle with wide range and big body. With that candle, the market should return within a demand zone and closed within or above that. Here is the example of a bullish imbalance on EURJPY. After a bearish inducement, the price formed a high momentum bullish candle and closed within the demand zone. The imbalance signify that a liquidity zone violation was a trap . With that, smart money simply was trying to grab the liquidity. That will be a signal for you to open an order. Step 5 - Look for an order block After the formation of the imbalance, the market becomes locally week and quite often corrects to an order block. Order block will be the closest hourly liquidity zone. After a formation of a bearish imbalance, look for a supply zone on an hourly time frame. That will be your perfect zone to sell . After a formation of a bullish imbalance, look for a demand zone on an hourly. That will be your area to buy from. Here is the order block on EURJPY. Step 6 - Set a limit order Set a sell limit order within a supply area after a formation of bearish imbalance on an hourly time frame. Set a buy limit order within a demand area after a formation of a bullish imbalance on an hourly. Here is your buy entry level on EURJPY. Step 7 - Select the target If you sell, your target should be the closest daily structure support: horizontal or vertical one. If you buy, your target should be the closest daily structure resistance: horizontal or vertical one. In our example, our closest structure resistance if a falling trend line. Step 8 - Set stop loss If you sell, stop loss will lie above a bullish inducement. If you buy, stop loss will lie below a bearish inducement. Here is a perfect point for a stop loss for a long trade on EURJPY. Step 9 - Trade Let the price trigger your entry, and then be prepared to wait. It took many days for EURJPY to reach the target. Trading Tips: 1. Make sure that you have a positive reward/ratio. It should be at least 1.2 2. Risk no more that 1% of your trading account per trade Being applied properly, that strategy shows 70%+ accuracy. Try it by yourself and let me know your results. ❤️Please, support my work with like, thank you!❤️ I am part of Trade Nation's Influencer program and receive a monthly fee for using their TradingView charts in my analysis.

SMC Concept: Defining the Trading Range (Step 1) On CADJPYCAD/JPY, 4H Timeframe (as demonstrated) This post outlines the first step in a methodology focused on identifying key market structure levels. The goal is to objectively define a trading range, using CAD/JPY as the example. The Process: Of a bullish Structure Identify the range Low: Locate the last retracement from the previous high, the low is deepest price level retraced to. Find the Inducement: Mark the low of the most recent pullback (retracement) before the price made a new high. Wait for Confirmation: The high is only confirmed once price returns to hit this inducement level. This validates the high as an official range boundary. A break of the confirmed high is a break of structure (BOS). A break of the confirmed low suggests a change of character (CHoCH), shifting sentiment. This is the foundational step for identifying future points of interest. The next step involves plotting POIs based on this confirmed range. This methodology is based on one that I learned from someone else on Youtube, but I have changed many details to suit my style. As a thank you note, I have referred to this person on other paltforms, but unfortunately, I don't think I can do this here as I might be violating this platform's rules. I will be posting the next steps that would lead to deciding on a trading position on step by step basis. I am already making videos but I might be using this platforms video option for later posts.

Daily Candle Analysis ($GU)Hi everyone. Firstly thank you to everyone who follow me here on TradingView and also on social media. I appreciate you all! Sharing my pre market open analysis here on GBP/USD. Keeping the markup very simple! only looking at the previous daily candle. I haven't got this marked on the shared chart, but price is currently within a daily Fair Value Gap, hence I reckon we could see a bullish reaction. Too early to say, but my current prediction for the opening is, that price will wick below the previous day low price and trade towards the price point of 1.35 as an initial bullish target. And then if at 1.35 further bullish confirmations form, then we could potentially see price trade a further leg up to 1.3525 & 1.355. Hope everyone has a good trading week ahead, keep risk managed, trade smart, and hope you found this brief analysis on GBPUSD helpful for your own analysis. Would also love to hear your guys opinions below in the comments. Kind regards, Aman
