Build a little bit on ICTs orderblock theory

Micro-Market structure is very LTF charts

A lot of people say its noise, but thats actually impossible because its the same price and its all fractal

The 5m or 1m timeframe is the best for small stops, but you have to know what youre looking for otherwise you’ll get burned

A macro is a short list of processes that go into action to a liquidity pool or it rebalances

Wait for price to go away and show its hand, wait for a displacement during the killzone

The red orderblock has already been used because it tapped it and showed displacement, so then you would move to the next orderblock the blue one

Notice how this is ICT bearish pattern #1 from the core content (check that pattern here: Intraday Top Down Analysis - 4 Hour to 5 Minute)

Price only does 1 of 4 things: Sellside liquidity run Buyside liquidity run Inefficient run rebalanced Or run to make inefficiency

The 5th element is time

Its not the fibonacci that makes it good, the fib is just there to look for a good area to trade at. So the OTE lines are not a magic number, just like the projections are not magic numbers. Overlap it with PD arrays

If you dont study them all of these things wont matter and wont make sense

If its going up, price is either going up to rebalance something or take liquidity

A HTF narrative on micro trades like this is not that important as long as you have a HTF PD array, the bearish daily orderblock in this case. But if you want to filter out the bad trades then only follow the orderflow of the daily

Daytraders dont keep throwing the dice, professionals stop trading after taking that sellside, then your done for the day
