When price enters into a new trading range, this means you will
most likely have a new Point of Interest to trade from.

This is a big struggle for many traders but sometimes you just got
to bite the bullet and take the trade.

No Risk = No Reward.
Be Reactive = Not Predictive.

In this example, the market impulses and then retraces back to the
order block to fill the remaining buy orders..

That pullback phase (once tapped into the order block) can be
considered as a mitigation, to put things simply.

So, when it comes to Liquidity, it's essentially just Money, it's the Fuel for the
Markets just like Gas is for a Car, & a Car without Gas, isn't going anywhere.
The first example is equal highs & equal lows. When it comes to trading these,
we're often taught to sell at double tops & buy at double bottoms. Yeah we may
see a short lived move, don't get me wrong, but as we know, the markets like to
target liquidity, so in the long run, these tops & bottoms will be taken.

We also have trend line liquidity which is pretty much just as we know, buy / sell
on third touch, wait for breakouts etc.. Again this just creates a bunch of
liquidity waiting to be taken.

Next up is range, otherwise known as the typical support / resistance. If the


price is ranging, it's essentially just gathering a bunch of liquidity waiting to be
taken. We're taught to buy from support, sell from resistance & so on.

WWW.ZCFXTRADING.COM
@ZEUSCAPITAL

Trend lines are probably one of the most common ways of trading,
so having an understanding on drawing up trend lines will definitely
give you that informational edge in the markets.

WWW.ZCFXTRADING.COM
@ZEUSCAPITAL

Another great example on trend line liquidity but in a bearish


scenario, we can actually use liqudity as targets.

WWW.ZCFXTRADING.COM
@ZEUSCAPITAL

So the question is, can you spot the liquidity? If not, then you
probably are the Liquidity.

Try going on your charts now and mark up where the relatively equal
lows / highs are, draw up trend lines, draw up S/R levels, dig deep
into it, go back in time and look at what happened once the equal
lows / highs etc was formed.

I like to use the M15 & H4 for marking up Liquidity areas. Just note
that there is Liquidity behind every structural swing point.

WWW.ZCFXTRADING.COM
@ZEUSCAPITAL

In order to find imbalances, it consists of 3 candles. In a Bullish Scenario, It is where there is a


gap between the top wick of the first candle & the bottom wick of the third candle do not meet.

As for a Bearish Scenario, it is where there is a gap between the Lower Wick of the first candle &
the top wick of the third candle do not meet. & then when it's balanced, it's simply where there is
no gap between the first & third candle wick.

I don't trade 'only Imbalances', I use it to look for valid POIs along with other concepts for
precision.

Now, people may have different inputs as to what it may be, but the way I view it is, for example
when price picks up in momentum & moves fast, the orders didn't get filled so the market will
reverse to rebalance itself.

Another example is when both buyers & sellers did not get a fair chance to liquidity, therefore,
the market will have to re balance itself.

You can use it for confluence & other things, but I just prefer to use it to assist locating valid
POIs.

WWW.ZCFXTRADING.COM
@ZEUSCAPITAL

Here is a real live chart example of imbalances.

WWW.ZCFXTRADING.COM
@ZEUSCAPITAL

I see so many traders getting caught on the wrong side of the market
so thought I would just share this to remind you.

This can be avoided by having an understanding of why, how &


where the liquidity is potentially testing.

Higher time frame demand zone gets respected causing a change of


character to the upside which will allow us to look at potential LTF long
opportunities once the downside liquidity has been swept leaving only
upside liquidity which can later on be collected.

@ZEUSCAPITAL

Just a bullish perspective from the last slide.

WWW.ZCFXTRADING.COM
@ZEUSCAPITAL

Starting to notice something before the entries? Entries seem to be only


once the Liquidity has been taken, right? Why? Because Liquidity is
FUEL for the markets.

A car wouldn't move without Fuel.

RISK ENTRY VS
CONFIRMATION ENTRY
LTF

HTF
RISK CONFIRMATION

@ZEUSCAPITAL
The main difference between a risk entry and a confirmation entry is that
risk entries are mainly based around limit orders, you simply set a limit
order (or even instant execution) on the zone…

Whereas for a confirmation entry, it requires you to drop to the lower


time frames and look for a change of character in the OPPOSITE
direction once price reaches the htf zone.

CHOCH - CHANGE OF CHARACTER

What's the difference?

Well, as you can see, a BoS (break of structure) carries on in the same
direction it was initially heading in whereas a CHoCH (change of
character) can be viewed as the Markets turning point I.e. Bullish to
Bearish, Bearish to Bullish.

WWW.ZCFXTRADING.COM
@ZEUSCAPITAL

So as you can see, we wait for a CHoCH similar to this, to happen on the LTF
before entries.

Just remember that there won't always be opportunities that present


themselves.

But pretty much we wait for a shift from weak to strong hands when price
mitigates a HTF zone, I.e. wait for a HL to be taken, just like the example. (or
a LH in a Demand Delivery example).

Without that shift in structure & momentum, there is no trade.

I actually did a YouTube video on this one which I highly recommend you

It mainly is self explanatory so please just really look close to understand the

HTF TRADING RANGE

@ZEUSCAPITAL
So pretty much as price mitigates a Higher Time Frame Zone, we switch to
the Lower Time Frame to look for a Change of Character (CHoCH) in the
opposite direction.

So in theory, let’s say that we have a H4 Supply Zone & price is pulling back
to that zone, creating higher highs & higher lows on the 15M, once price
reaches that Zone, wait for a Higher Low to fail / break below it & then we
look for a newly created Supply Zone & that's the one you want to trade from.

It’s also great to factor in liquidity, because as we know, that fuels the
markets!

USD CPI was just some news that was released which caused that move.
Again, look at the little details, there was a huge shift in momentum, what did
price pull back to?

Please note that when trading flip entries, make sure it’s a continuation of
the current trend.

Pretty much it’s when supply loses control & demand takes control. So to
keep things simple and a great way to view it would be this: supply failed to
hold which caused a demand for price.

The preferable entry would be after the CHoCH had occurred.

EXPECTATION

@ZEUSCAPITAL

Price does certainly not move from A to B in a straight line, nor does it move
like the example for expectation, it actually moves more like the Reality.

Now of course it's not going to be the exact same as this example but you
get the idea, putting it simply, it moves up & down.. a lot.

You just have to find the best place to enter the market & preferably, follow
the Market Structure for better psychological stability.

WWW.ZCFXTRADING.COM
@ZEUSCAPITAL

WWW.ZCFXTRADING.COM
@ZEUSCAPITAL

Keeping things simple, identify the structure & then draw up your p / d range
& if in a bullish structure, look for buys in the discounted area.

If in a bearish structure, look for sells in the premium area. You only need 0 -
50 - 100 displayed on your Fibonacci tool.

I'm relating this to all candles, especially higher time frame candles, just
more so that you're aware of what happens inside a candle & how the market
moves on the lower time frame to produce that certain candle.

I guess it just helps you get more of an insight.

P.s. it may look advanced or confusing, but if you look at the tiny details, it's
fairly simple for the average trader to understand.

To close things off, I just thought this was a great way to view how us
traders at ZCFC view the markets. We're not looking to be like the small fish
and trade like the majority of the people, we look to trade in a unique way
with an in-depth understanding into how the market works by simply tagging
the coattails of the institutions.

Hey, how you finding it?

Learn something new? I hope so! Keep this on


you, print it out if you need to, keep it by your
side, customise it, get creative, but more
importantly, read it every day.

Why every day? Well, it's the same as when we


do our daily affirmations, we are reprogramming
our beliefs and subconscious mind.

@ZEUSCAPITAL
I also wanted to mention that I have put together
some public playlists on my YouTube for you
guys of my mentors like Bob Proctor, Jim Rohn,
Zig Ziglar etc. These are great people to study
and listen to. Just trust me.

But anyways, before I move on, I also quickly


want to mention that even though having a
system that works in the markets is good and
what not, it's also really important to control your
emotions, this will mainly develop over time and
experience but I thought I would throw in some
things that you may find helpful in terms of
psychology.

There will be some designs, quotes etc, enjoy!


WWW.ZCFXTRADING.COM
-Do more of what works and less of what
doesn't.

-If you don't plan your time, someone else will


help you waste it.

@ZEUSCAPITAL
-It's not whether you're right or wrong that's
important, but how much money you make
when you're right and how much you lose
when you're wrong.

-In investing, what is comfortable is rarely


profitable.

-The biggest risk of all is not taking one.

-Investing should be more like watching paint


dry or watching grass grow. If you want
excitement, take $800 and go to Las Vegas.
