22 setups at a glance
Each is a complete idea on its own. Combine two or three into confluence and your win-rate climbs.
PDH / PDL sweep
Price runs the previous-day high or low to grab stops, then snaps back inside — enter on the reversal toward the day's mean.
Quarter-level bounce
Split the previous-day range into quarters; buy reactions at 0.25, sell reactions at 0.75, target the 0.50 midpoint.
Asian range breakout
Mark the Asian high/low; London's first move usually sweeps one side — fade the sweep or follow the displacement.
4H order-block retest
Wait for price to return to a 4-hour order block that caused a break of structure, then enter on the reaction.
Fair value gap fill
Trade the retracement into an unfilled FVG in line with the trend; the gap acts as support/resistance.
BOS pullback
After a clean break of structure, enter on the first pullback to the broken level or the order block behind it.
CHoCH reversal
At a key level, a change of character on the lower timeframe signals the turn — enter on the retest.
Equal-highs / equal-lows raid
Price is drawn to obvious equal highs/lows; trade the reversal after the liquidity above/below is taken.
Daily pivot rejection
Fade a clean rejection of the daily pivot back toward the prior session's range.
Premium/discount fade
In a bullish bias, buy only from discount (below range 50%); in a bearish bias, sell only from premium.
Session open drive
A strong displacement candle at the London or NY open often continues — join the move on a micro-pullback.
Round-number reaction
Big round numbers (e.g. gold at x,x00) pool liquidity; trade the reaction, not the touch.
Trendline liquidity sweep
Obvious trendlines hold retail stops; trade the break-and-reverse after the sweep, not the obvious bounce.
Inside-bar breakout
A daily inside bar signals compression; trade the break in the direction of the higher-timeframe bias.
Engulfing at a level
A strong engulfing candle at a key support/resistance is a clean, simple reversal trigger.
Double-tap demand/supply
Price taps a demand/supply zone twice; the second reaction with a structure shift is the entry.
News-fade reset
After a high-impact news spike and stop-hunt, wait for structure to settle, then trade the resulting direction.
Weekly-open gap
Price often returns to the weekly open; fade extreme Monday moves back toward it.
Mitigation block entry
Re-enter from the last opposing candle that price 'mitigates' on its way to continuing the trend.
Liquidity-to-liquidity run
Map one liquidity pool to the next; once one side is swept, ride the move toward the opposite pool.
3-candle CRT model
Range candle → manipulation sweep → distribution; enter on the distribution leg toward the opposite extreme.
Break-of-day-range continuation
Once price breaks and holds beyond the prior-day range, trade pullbacks in the breakout direction.
