Know where the 'Smart Money' is getting involved
Stop the guess work! You don’t have to be a statistic like ~90% of retail traders out there. Start to think like the smart money and know when to get involved. Large market players make a joke out of most retail traders by creating large order blocks and then taking price back to these zones just as the majority of retail traders start thinking the market is going into a new direction. Taking out your stops to create more liquidity for themselves and forcing the market back into the original direction. If this sounds familiar then stop what you have been doing and start playing the game the way they do.
Using this indicator you will be able to identify major Supply and Demand Zones as well as past and future areas of market imbalance typically referred to as fair value gaps. These gap zones typically end up getting filled due to the fact that as the market accelerate out of areas of accumulation and distribution with lot’s of liquidity in play not all market participants get’s equal chances to participate. This creates ‘imbalances’ or ‘fair value gaps’ in the market and price will eventually head back to these areas to give all markets participants a chance to explore fair-price. To understand more about this concept go read up or watch a few videos on ‘Fair Value Gaps’ and ‘Imbalance created by institutional trading’
.
How to interpret signals
The red and green zones are areas of liquidity (stops, orders etc.) and smart money will push price back through these areas to grab the liquidity before making a new move.
The areas of inefficiency is where unequal buying or selling occurred and will very often be filled at some point in the future.
