A Simple and Effective Strategy to Outsmart Liquidity HuntingHave you ever encountered a scenario where the price hits your Stop Loss level first, only to then fully reverse and head in the direction of your target profit, ultimately reaching it? If the answer is yes, you’ve most likely fallen victim to what is commonly referred to as a 'liquidity grab'. In other terms, this phenomenon is known as 'stop-loss hunting', and it is an inescapable occurrence within the realm of trading. But why does it happen? The answer lies in the actions of big market players, such as banks and institutions, who need to fill their large positions. Simply put, for markets to function properly, there must be equilibrium - an equal number of buyers and sellers, a balance between supply and demand. For every buy-back and sell-off you conduct, there must be an opposing party willing to execute the trade with you. This is where brokers come into play, linking both sides of the transaction. When there is an imbalance between buyers and sellers, it leads to market inefficiency, which can result in excess supply or demand, distorting price movements. Market makers help prevent this by ensuring market stability and securing better pricing for executing large orders.
 For example, imagine you have analysed the sentiment and opened a SELL trade on USD/CHF at a key level, placing your Stop Loss just above the same zone. After some time, you notice the price impulsively moves towards your Stop Loss, triggering it and taking you out of the trade. Later, you watch the price flip and move in the direction you had originally predicted. Frustrated, you begin to blame the market, convinced it’s rigged against you. However, what really happened is that the price was pushed into an obvious pool of Stop Losses, allowing the positions you and many others sold to be bought back. This also enabled large institutional orders to be filled at better prices, while maintaining balance between buy and sell orders. How do you avoid this? The key is to better understand market dynamics and make more informed decisions. In this scenario, a smarter approach would have been to place your entry where the obvious pool of Stop Losses is located. By doing so, you could have captured a more favourable risk-to-reward ratio, perhaps achieving a 1:3 trade, as illustrated in the accompanying chart. So next time, before rushing into a trade, take a step back. Assess the situation with greater patience and clarity. Often, there’s an initial push, just as the price action indicates. This move entices traders into premature entries. Afterward, a sudden liquidity grab occurs, wiping out these traders before the market reverses in the anticipated direction. Be patient. Play it smart. Best wishes, Investroy

EW Breakdown of USDCHF: Eyeing a Move Toward 0.8620Timeframe: 4h (240 min) I have analyzed the wave count by examining a consolidation area with significant trading activity following a sharp decline in USDCHF. Observing the slope of the fall, it appears that this congestion area could represent a correction on the 4-hour timeframe. The wave count indicates that wave B has formed a contracting triangle, with wave (e) of wave B completing at 0.8396 . We are at wave (C), which has can be move forward after breaching a strong resistance of 0.85154 . The currency may have some pullback for the public participation, but it shouldn't exceed the low of wave B. The setup can be formed after the breakout of wave B, for the distance up to 0.8618 . Fibonacci Calculations are given below: Wave C = 1.618 of Wave A Wave C = 0.786 of the previous impulse Wave C = 1.618 of the previous impulse Additional information will be provided shortly.

The bias is to break to the downside. We look for a temporary move higher. Preferred trade is to sell into rallies. Early optimism is likely to lead to gains although extended attempts higher are expected to fail. We look to Sell at 0.8504 (stop at 0.8524) Our profit targets will be 0.8444 and 0.8434 Resistance: 0.8473 / 0.8490 / 0.8515 Support: 0.8440 / 0.8420 / 0.8396 Risk Disclaimer The trade ideas beyond this page are for informational purposes only and do not constitute investment advice or a solicitation to trade.

USDCHF Overview.The USD/CHF 1-hour chart shows a bearish setup where liquidity engineering at the 0.84801 level has already been tapped. This indicates that the market may have swept liquidity and is now preparing for a continuation of the downward trend. After this liquidity grab, the price has pulled back toward the support zone and is showing signs of weakness, suggesting that sellers are gaining control. Given the overall bearish structure and the recent break of structure (BOS) around 0.84400, it's likely that the price will resume its downward movement. The next significant move is expected to be a breakdown from the current consolidation, targeting the 0.83800 level as the final downside objective. So I think everyone should watch for a bearish rejection around the current support area, with a stop-loss placed slightly above the recent highs around 0.84600 to manage risk. OANDA:USDCHF

USDCHF SELL SHORT👉🏻 Understanding Market Dynamics: The Key to Effective Trading 📈 The USD/CHF chart you're viewing highlights a clear portrayal of market dynamics, essential for intermediate traders. Here's a focused breakdown: 1. Trend Analysis: We observe a distinct descending trendline that has been respected multiple times, indicating strong bearish momentum. The recent bearish price action after a retracement towards this trendline suggests that the downtrend may continue. 2. Support and Resistance Levels: The horizontal dotted line around 0.8650 acts as a crucial pivot point, serving both as support and resistance through various points on the chart. Currently, prices are testing this level again, indicating a potential turning point. 3. Potential Trading Zones: The pink shaded area above the current price level acts as a resistance zone. For traders looking to take short positions, this zone provides a good risk-to-reward ratio, targeting lower levels. Conversely, the blue shaded area suggests a potential buy zone if the price were to drop significantly, indicating a good area for long positions with tight stop losses below. 4. Risk Management: Remember, the essence of profitable trading lies in effective risk management. Protecting your capital should always be a priority. Set stop losses appropriately, and consider the current market structure before placing trades. 5. Strategic Outlook: Considering the overall market conditions and the current price action near key resistance, leaning towards short positions might be more favorable until a clear break above the trendline is observed. 👉🏻 Trading isn't just about predictions; it's about preparation.
