Check out the new article: Optimizing Liquidity Raids: Mastering the Difference Between Liquidity Raids and Market Structure Shifts.
This is an article about a specialized trend-following EA that aims to clearly elaborate how to utilize trading setups after liquidity raids. This article will explore in detail an EA that is specifically designed for traders who are keen on optimizing and utilizing liquidity raids and purges as entry criteria for their trades and trading decisions. It will also explore how to correctly differentiate between liquidity raids and market structure shifts and how to validate and utilize each of them when they occur, thus trying to mitigate losses that occur from traders confusing the two.
These imbalances/inefficiencies are created when there are rapid price movements in either direction, indicating strong buying or selling pressure, primarily from institutional players. In simple terms, this trading pressure often leads to a scenario where traders do not have equal opportunities to place or execute trades; therefore, in a bullish inefficiency, where price has left a point with force and speed toward higher prices and sellers have not had enough time or opportunity to execute them, while in a bearish inefficiency, where price has left a point with force and speed toward lower prices and buyers have not had enough time or opportunity to execute them, this area is called an unbalanced price range, as there has been no price movement in the opposite direction from where the expansion came from.
This can be explained most clearly through painter's logic: when a painter paints a wall, they must paint it with equal, or even similar, brushstrokes in opposite directions so that the paint is applied evenly and is balanced, or rather, of high quality. This same logic applies to price. When a bullish candle expands and breaks through a price point, for example, from 1.3010 to 1.3030, a bearish candle must also break through that price point to balance the price, and if it doesn't, it becomes an imbalance. Often, if not always, the price will return to this point eventually. This may occur in any timeframe.
