How to spot a TRUE reversal in 3 easy steps. #trading #forex #crypto #gold #smc #ict

Summary

The video presents a three-step price-action framework for identifying a potential reversal using liquidity and market-structure concepts:

1. Liquidity raid: Price takes a prior high, reaching for buy-side liquidity and potentially trapping traders.
2. Displacement and structure break: Look for a strong move after the raid. Displacement is described as confirmation of a shift, not an entry by itself. A displacement candle closing through the nearest swing low is the stated confirmation of a break in market structure.
3. Retracement entry: Rather than chasing price, wait for it to return to the imbalance—identified as a fair value gap—in the price leg that caused the break. An order block overlapping that gap is presented as added entry confluence. The proposed target is the opposing liquidity pool.

Key Cautions

• Don’t force a reversal or enter based on displacement alone.
• Wait for market-structure confirmation and a retracement.
