Structure has been refined with a key OB in play. Price is approaching mitigation, and I’ve been tracking this level closely since last week.

Price structure is clearly bullish with strong intent. Looking to ride momentum as price continues toward 30M and 4H highs.
LTF Confirmation (30M):
Structure has been refined. Price swept sell-side liquidity and cleanly mitigated a key 30M OB — now I’m monitoring for LTF alignment to catch the continuation.

Targets: 5M highs, 30M highs — trailing based on delivery and momentum
Mindset Note: No emotion, no forcing. Waiting for alignment from Smart Money and letting price invite me in. Clarity leads, execution follows.
EURUSD| Bullish Bias - Refined OB Play into ContinuationPair: EURUSD

Bullish structure remains intact — recent break to the upside was followed by a healthy pullback. Now price is continuing the push toward external 4H highs.
LTF Confirmation (30M):

Entry Zone: 5M CHoCH flip followed by pullback into demand zone

Mindset Note: Keeping it clean and reactive. No guessing — I’m tracking Smart Money flow, structure shift, and waiting on my cue.
GBPJPY| Bullish Bias - Range Play Before The SweepPair: GBPJPY
Bias: Bullish
HTF Overview (4H):
Structure remains bullish, but price is currently sitting inside a tight top-of-range formation. No clear breakout yet — still waiting on a deeper sell-side liquidity sweep to fuel the next leg. Until then, the focus is on how price dances within mid-range liquidity.
LTF Confirmation (30M):
Still watching for a clean sweep of previous internal lows from last week. 30M OB is refined and marked — once it’s mitigated, I’ll wait for LTF confirmation.
Entry Zone: Will monitor for 5M shift and intent after OB mitigation.
Targets: Initial target = 5M highs; extended = 30M highs depending on price delivery.
Mindset Note: Sitting on hands until Smart Money shows its hand. No rushing range plays. Patience = precision.
XAUUSD | Bullish - Deep Liquidity Grab + OB MitigationPair: XAUUSD
Bias: Bullish
HTF Overview (4H):
Structure remains bullish, with continuation expected toward prior 4H highs. Last week’s strong bullish intent signaled Smart Money’s directional commitment. Price reached deeper to seek liquidity beneath major sell-side lows, setting the stage.
LTF Confirmation (30M):
Price cleanly mitigated a 30M order block resting just under the swept liquidity. This reinforces the bias, and I’ll now be watching for LTF confirmations once the market opens.
Entry Zone: Within or just above the 30M OB
Targets: 5M and 30M internal highs. Trailing targets will depend on how price delivers.
Mindset Note: Patience is key here. I’m waiting for clean confirmation before executing — no rush. The story is written. I just need the trigger.
GBPCAD a short-term long trade into a HTF short area.GBPCAD presents a potential LTF long trade into a HTF short area. I am overall still bearish biased, but considering we have gaps to the top of the structure we might get an opportunity for a short-term counter long trade to finish the consolidation before we see the next bigger move to the downside.

AUDUSD looks promising for a continuationThis pair presents a potential trade opportunity in the form of a short continuation. The price did reach a significant Area of Interest (AoI) in form of an expanding 3-touch structure before turning around. Price did close outside the structure on the H4 with a candlestick reversal pattern and printed a bearish high-test candle on the daily timeframe. This clearly shows a shift in momentum and I am now waiting for a lower time frame (LTF) continuation pattern to confirm the direction and a valid candlestick pattern for entry.

UJ| Bullish Structure Ride | 5M Demand ExecutionPair: USDJPY
Bias: Bullish
HTF Overview: 4H structure stayed bullish with clean intent. Internal liquidity resting above prior highs, and price is still pushing through the 30M range toward those 4H targets.
LTF Confirmation: 30M showed a clean continuation range with a lower high (LH) inside structure — price never broke character. I tracked it into 5M where the OB was sitting patiently.
Entry Zone: Tapped into the 5M OB with a short-term sweep right before — no need for extra confirmation. The move had structure, inducement, and momentum on its side.
Target: TP hit at the 5M highs, but overall I’m watching for the 30M LH to go first, then ultimately expecting price to run the 4H internal highs this upcoming week.
Mindset Note: When the story is clear on the HTF, all you need is one clean LTF entry to ride with conviction. I’m letting the higher timeframe breathe and staying ready.
XAUUSD Locked In| Waiting for 5M OB SparkPair: XAUUSD (Gold)
Bias: Bullish
Timeframes: 30M / 5M
Gold has followed structure beautifully — top-down alignment from 30M into 5M is clear. Price respected the 30M OB and showed intent, but now we’re approaching the moment of truth.
I’m watching the 5M OB for entry — this is where execution mode activates. No rush. I’m in analysis mode right now, but the shift is coming.
Entry zone is mapped, structure’s in place, order flow is aligned — all I need now is price to do what it always does: respect the blueprint.
Entry Zone: 5M OB
Target: 5M highs
Mindset Note: Patience before the spark. I don’t force entries — I wait for the market to hand me the move it already hinted at. ⚡️
Nasdaq Bullish Flow | 5M OB Execution PendingPair: NAS100
Bias: Bullish
Timeframes: 30M / 5M
Price remains heavy bullish — structure aligning perfectly across the board. Ever since the 30M OB was mitigated, I’ve been following Nasdaq’s order flow step-by-step.
I was watching for full-bodied confirmations inside the 30M zone, but instead, price gave clarity through the lower timeframes. That 5M flip gave away smart money’s intent — showing me exactly where accumulation is happening.
Now waiting for price to tap into the 5M OB to shift into execution mode. This setup has been mapped with precision — no guessing. Once entry presents itself, I’ll follow through.
Entry Zone: 5M OB
Target: 5M highs
Mindset Note: Still in analysis mode — patience until price hits my zone. Smart money doesn’t rush, it accumulates. So do I. 💼
UJ Exexcution Flow| 5M OB Setup in MotionPair: USDJPY
Bias: Bullish
Timeframes: 30M / 5M
Top-down structure respected cleanly across the board — from HTF to LTF, price has been flowing exactly as forecasted. After confirming the bearish LH break and structure flip, we’re now in a bullish leg with intent clearly shown on the lower timeframes.
Currently waiting for price to mitigate the marked 5M order block for precise execution. Entry is valid and backed by structural logic — no guessing, just following what price has already confirmed.
Entry Zone: 5M OB (confirmed after LH break + LTF intent) Target: Clean 5M highs
Mindset Note: Analysis mode done. Execution mode engaged. I let price lead — I just follow structure.
ALPINE / USDT : looking bullish ALPINEUSDT Analysis:
The price is currently retesting the downward trendline. This is a crucial point where the price may either bounce off or fail to hold the trendline, signaling the next major move.
Bullish Scenario:
Trendline Retest and Bounce: If the price holds above the trendline and shows bullish momentum, we could see a rise towards 1.099 (125.45% potential upside).
Confirmation: Look for strong buying volume during the retest to confirm the bounce.
Bearish Scenario:
Trendline Breakdown: If the price fails to hold the trendline and breaks below it, this could trigger a downward move.
Target: Watch for the next support levels to gauge the potential downside.
CADJPY - The Bulls Are Stronger than Ever!Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst.
📈CADJPY has been overall bullish trading within the rising wedge pattern marked in red.
This week, CADJPY has been retesting the lower bound of the wedge.
Moreover, the green zone is a strong weekly support.
🏹 Thus, the highlighted blue circle is a strong area to look for buy setups as it is the intersection of the lower red trendline and green support.
📚 As per my trading style:
As #CADJPY approaches the blue circle zone, I will be looking for trend-following bullish reversal setups (like a double bottom pattern, trendline break , and so on...)
📚 Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management.
Good luck!
All Strategies Are Good; If Managed Properly!

NASDAQ100| - Bullish Bias RemainsPrice didn’t give me the deep candle retrace into my 30M OB — just a wick tap — but that was enough. That wick shows me smart money touched in.
Dropped to the LTF and got my shift in structure confirming bullish intent.
Now I’m locked in, watching for price to sweep a 5M sell-side liquidity pocket into a clean LTF order block for the next entry.
🎯 Target: Short-term 5M highs
🚀 Bias: Still bullish unless structure breaks
This is a patience game now — execution only after confirmation.
USDJPY| - Bullish Setup Loading30M price action remains heavy to the upside. Structure is intact — no lows invalidated. Currently sitting on a refined 30M order block, I’m patiently watching for price to dip back into the zone and sweep short-term liquidity (SSL).
Once that sweep happens and we pull back into the OB, I’ll be looking to ride the bullish momentum:
🎯 First target: 5M highs
🚀 Final target: 30M highs
Feeling confident — just waiting on smart money to confirm it’s time.
XAUUSD| Smart Money Confirmations LoadingBias: Bullish
HTF Overview: Price has just tapped into the 30-minute order flow zone after clearing out sell-side liquidity. This area aligns cleanly with bullish intent and prior structure.
LTF Focus: Currently waiting for lower timeframe confirmation — ideally a clear CHoCH or internal flip. Once smart money confirms this zone with a shift, I’ll look to enter and ride the momentum.
Target: Initial focus is on the 5-minute highs as a short-term objective. While price could continue toward 30-minute highs, structure suggests the recent 5M high is a more immediate and realistic target, making it a smarter move to secure profit around that level.
Mindset Note: Not in a rush — letting price speak first. The confirmation is what separates a guess from a smart move.
