ICT says that because the candle bodies stop dead at the 0.625 level of Thursday’s ORG, it indicates that the SSL at 24892.5 will not be taken out.
Then it’s time to look for premium levels to be reached, so turn bullish.
He also says that the 09:33 candle was not the F.P. FVG of the day, even though it was the first imbalance.
His reasoning is:
Because that candle did not displace below the 9:30 opening price, it did not trade down into the March 10 ORG at all.
If I tell you I’m bullish, what do I want to see?
Displacement to the upside.
A dead stop at the ORG low, followed by displacement higher and the creation of a BISI, is exactly what we would want to see if we are bullish.
He also says that if liquidity is taken out to the downside (SSL) after this lower displacement, then the marked SIBI should stay open. If it does not stay open, then price is not going to take the liquidity; instead, it will reverse and use it as an IFVG.
When the 10:21 a.m. candle low refused to touch the SIBI, which would now act as an IFVG+, and instead retested the RTH low and continued higher, that was an indication that we are strong and that order flow is extremely bullish.
Then the 08:58 SIBI acts as an IFVG+, and the candle bodies stay above the C.E.
That’s strong. That’s bullish order flow.
Then the same thing happens with the F.P. FVG — it refused to close below the C.E. in candle body terms.
These were HRLR conditions, but an experienced trader can trade them.
