How I Identify Which Liquidity Price Will Target (LIQUIDITY SECRETS)

Brad Goh explains a method for ranking liquidity targets: identifying higher-timeframe trend, swing ranges, and internal vs. external liquidity to predict which liquidity price will hunt next. Demonst

Key Takeaways

  • Ranking liquidity by likelihood of being targeted is more valuable than simply marking it.
  • Use the higher timeframe to establish destination and trend, and the lower timeframe for entry timing.
  • Distinguish internal liquidity from external liquidity and recognize that price can sweep internal liquidity against the trend.
  • Build a narrative of price's objective before trading, and only act when multiple signals align.

What the video covers

  • Most traders can mark liquidity but fail to determine which liquidity price will actually target; the key skill is ranking liquidity rather than just finding it.
  • Every high and low carries some form of liquidity, so simply spotting liquidity is largely useless without context.
  • The closest liquidity is not necessarily the liquidity price targets; price may move past nearby liquidity to reach external liquidity first.
  • The framework uses the higher timeframe to determine destination and direction, and the lower timeframe to determine entry confirmation and how price gets there.
  • Traders should first identify trend direction, who controls price (buyers or sellers), and the current swing range established by a break of structure.
  • Internal liquidity within the range can be swept to fuel short-term moves against the directional bias before the larger move resumes.
  • Stop loss is placed beyond the liquidity sweep or invalidation point, with take profit at predetermined external or opposing liquidity.
  • Multiple confirming pieces of information should tell the same story; when the picture is unclear, staying on the sidelines is recommended.
  • The strategy is presented as applicable across asset classes (indices, crypto, forex, stocks, futures) as long as candlestick charts are used.
  • The video is aimed at intermediate traders and recommends prior study of inducement and liquidity basics, including a free mentorship training.

Answers

Questions about this video

Why does the speaker say the closest liquidity is not always the target?

The speaker explains that price may bypass nearby liquidity and instead reach deeper external liquidity before reversing. Traders who assume price will always take the closest liquidity often get caught off guard.

How should the higher and lower timeframes be used together in this framework?

The higher timeframe is used to identify trend direction, control, and the destination of price, while the lower timeframe is used to confirm entries and understand how price moves toward that destination.

What should a trader do when the market direction is unclear?

According to the speaker, traders should stay on the sidelines and observe, waiting for clearer signals or a clear side to develop rather than forcing a trade without multiple confirming factors.

Speaker A
Everybody always talks about liquidity. Liquidity this, liquidity that. But the truth is most traders don't actually understand liquidity. I mean like they say they do. Like they know what liquidity is. They know how to mark it out, but they don't actually know how to
00:18
Speaker A
trade it. Because the thing about liquidity is that it is literally everywhere. There's liquidity above price, below price, on the higher time frame, on the lower time frame. And if that's the case, how do you actually know which liquidity is price going to
00:33
Speaker A
target next? So, in this video, I'm going to show you exactly how I determine which liquidity is actually important, which liquidity is probably just noise, and how I built a narrative around where price is most likely to go
00:46
Speaker A
next. And most importantly, I'm going to show you this on real charts [music] so you can see exactly how I think about liquidity when I'm actually trading live. Now before this video starts, you must understand that this video is not
00:59
Speaker A
for beginners. Which means that if you don't understand inducements or liquidity concepts, I highly recommend you to check out this 1hour training that I did on liquidity concepts [music] as part of my free 33day market mechanics mentorship series. Right? So
01:13
Speaker A
go and make sure you watch that, you finish that, you understand how to swap inducements and liquidity. Once you do, you can come back and watch this video.
01:22
Speaker A
But yeah, if you don't do that first, you will not be able to understand anything that I'm talking about in this video. I I would sound like I'm speaking a foreign language other than English to you, right? So, make sure you go and get
01:34
Speaker A
that solid foundation built before you come back to this video. Now, if you do understand the basics of liquidity, i.e.
01:41
Speaker A
where liquidity is, what is actually liquidity, then you will really enjoy this video. Right? So the first thing you must understand is that every high and low technically has some form of liquidity, right? So there is uh buy
01:55
Speaker A
side liquidity above this high and then there is sellside liquidity below this low. So simply spotting liquidity is pretty useless. Like everybody can spot liquidity. The hard part is knowing which liquidity is most likely going to get taken and is going to be used to
02:11
Speaker A
fuel the move to the other side. And the biggest mistake that a lot of traders tend to make, including my students at the start before they met me, is that they tend to mark every equal high and every equal lows and every single swing
02:25
Speaker A
low and swing high that they see as available liquidity and they assume that price has to take all of this liquidity right here. The truth is some of this liquidity is actually meaningful and useful, right? Which means smart money
02:38
Speaker A
will eventually take those before filling the real move. But a lot of this is also just noise. Like in this example right here, price went up, pulls back, and then goes up and then starts pulling back. So this is where a lot of traders
02:52
Speaker A
will assume that all price is going to do is that it's going to come down here and take out the available liquidity below this low right here and then price can go up, right? So they assume that price is going to take the closest
03:04
Speaker A
liquidity when in reality that might not be the case because price can still come down here s the liquidity below this low right here the external liquidity which is a concept that I'm going to walk you through later before price goes up. So
03:17
Speaker A
the closest liquidity isn't necessarily the liquidity price is actually targeting. So remember this right? I want you guys to write this down somewhere. Your job as a trader isn't just to find liquidity. Your job is to rank liquidity. To ask yourself which
03:38
Speaker A
liquidity is most likely going to get taken first. What is the objective of price and how does this liquidity sweep fit in the objective the narrative as to like what price is potentially going to do. So with that being said, let me walk
03:52
Speaker A
you through my entire process in terms of how to actually spot and trade liquidity correctly. So right now we are analyzing US30 which is an indices but understand that this strategy works on all asset classes crypto forex stocks
04:05
Speaker A
futures whatever that you trade as long as it has a candlestick chart is going to work for you and I'm analyzing the charts on edge flow which is my discipline first trading platform where you can do your pre-market in market and
04:16
Speaker A
postmarket routine you can plan your trades here you can execute trades with discipline here you can journal your trades you can do everything you need to do as a trader on this platform itself right that's how awesome this platform
04:27
Speaker A
truly is. So yeah, shout out to Edge Flow and shout out to the founder who built Edge Flow, okay? Like this is one of those platforms that genuinely wants you to succeed as a trader that genuinely wants you to win, right? So
04:39
Speaker A
with that being said, enough of me shamelessly promoting my own platform. So let's get into the liquidity targeting framework. I mean, I had to come up with like a pretty cool name for this strategy. All right, so how this
04:49
Speaker A
strategy actually works is that it requires you to build a narrative of price, right? So it's a very sort of methodical framework in which you have to follow the steps that is laid out in here in this exact order in this exact
05:03
Speaker A
manner. So the first thing you must understand is that every single time frame serve a different purpose. The higher time frame and the lower time frame they should be used for different things. For me personally I like to use
05:15
Speaker A
the higher time frame to identify my trend direction to see who's in control of price supply or demand buyers or sellers. And then I like to use the lower time frame to look for my entry confirmation, my entry signal to tell me
05:27
Speaker A
when exactly to get in. Right? Which is why the first step of this entire strategy requires you to actually look at the higher time frame. To be very specific is to identify the liquidity on the higher time frame. So I believe that
05:41
Speaker A
you should use the higher time frame to determine the destination which is like where price is trying to go next and then use the lower time frame to understand how price might get there.
05:53
Speaker A
Right? So the lower time frame facilitates the higher time frame like price has to move first on the lower time frame before the higher time frame can actually shift. So before I care about you know the liquidity on the 1
06:04
Speaker A
minute or the 5m minute time frame the lower time frame I want to understand what the 4hour time frame or the 1 hour time frame is actually doing. So this is where I can obviously see price went up
06:13
Speaker A
came down swept the liquidity below this low right here you know our cheeky little liquidity sweep right there. So, I can just label that out as like a nice little liquidity sweep before price creates like this V-shaped reaction and
06:25
Speaker A
then goes up there and take out the last swing high just like this giving us a bullish break of structure to the upside. Right? So, when this happens, this tell us that obviously the bars are in control of price. Right? Price is
06:40
Speaker A
potentially going to create like a new higher low right here before price continue going up. So once again before you jump down to the lower time frame you really want to make sure that you identify your trend direction right and
06:52
Speaker A
you identify your swing range. So since this is the breakoff structure this becomes the swing low and this becomes the swing high which means this is the range in which we should pay attention to. Right? So we are not going to care
07:04
Speaker A
about what price does here or here or here. I'm only going to be caring about what price does within this range.
07:09
Speaker A
Right? This grounds you in the present moment so you can see the market for what it actually is. So this is where I'm analyzing the higher time frame and I'm looking at where price is currently sitting right now within the entire
07:20
Speaker A
larger structure that I've mapped out right here and where liquidity has already been taken and where liquidity has not been swept yet right like where is the available liquidity so in this case we already identified that price have already came down here and swept
07:35
Speaker A
the liquidity below this low right so this becomes the new protected low which is really just a term that says that a swing low has now swept liquidity on the previous low and is somewhat protected in a sense of like price is most likely
07:48
Speaker A
going to respect that level when it come back down to this level. With that being said, after all, it is still a swing low, right? Which means that is still a chance for price to sweep the liquidity below this low right here. So, this is
08:00
Speaker A
where we can identify that hey, there is liquidity sitting below this swing low right here and perhaps even above this swing high here as well. Right? So that is pretty much your external liquidity that you identify on the higher time
08:13
Speaker A
frame. So this is the question I always ask myself when I'm doing this. If I zoomed out and I couldn't see any lower time frame noise, where does price logically look like it's being delivered, right? Which means like where
08:25
Speaker A
is price most likely going to go just looking at this current price action that we have on a higher time frame structure, right? So in this case we know that price could potentially come down here respect this previous low and
08:36
Speaker A
then starts going up or if it's not enough right if there's not enough liquidity right here not enough fuel for price to go up price can come down here sweep this low and then go up as well right so it might want to come down here
08:48
Speaker A
and take the higher time frame external liquidity and then go up. So that could potentially happen too. So yeah once again that's the concept of external liquidity. External liquidity is generally around the extremes of the range, right? The extreme swing low, the
09:03
Speaker A
extreme swing high. And then internal liquidity is whatever liquidity that you can identify inside the range, right?
09:11
Speaker A
Between the swing low and the swing high. So, I'm going to put some examples of external liquidity on the screen right now. You got your major swing highs and lows like what I've identified right here. There's liquidity below this
09:22
Speaker A
low, liquidity above this high right here. uh at the extreme of the range itself, right? So for example, if there's a consolidation just like this, that is going to be liquidity above the high of the range and also below the low
09:34
Speaker A
of the range itself and also prior day high and prior day low right which means the previous day high and low like what the name suggests or the extremes that was formed during a specific session i.e. the London or New York session. So
09:50
Speaker A
yeah, that's the external liquidity right. So now we are pretty much done with step one and step two. We have marked our higher time frame external liquidity. We have also determined our higher time frame draw on liquidity which is like really the external
10:02
Speaker A
liquidity that is situated at a swing low and a swing high. The next step is to mark up the internal liquidity, right? Which is another concept I want to like walk you guys through. Now would you trust a trader who only ever shows
10:13
Speaker A
you hints [music] wins? I wouldn't. And that is exactly why I've been documenting my trading journey on YouTube for the past seven years, showing both the wins and the losses.
10:25
Speaker A
The system I kept refining over those seven years has helped me build a portfolio of over $10 million. And this November, I'm breaking down its foundations at the upcoming market mechanics [music] summit. From November 26th to the 28th, you will get three
10:42
Speaker A
intensive live days with me. On day one, I will show you how to see the market and understand what price is actually doing using market mechanics. On day two, we will turn the analysis into a mechanical trading system with specific
10:56
Speaker A
rules for your setups, entries, exits, and risks. [music] And then on day three, we will go deeper into advanced market mechanics concepts.
11:06
Speaker A
And I will map out my 90-day funded trader road map so you know what to focus on. as you build consistency, prepare for funding, and eventually scale. I'm also giving you some of the same workbooks and templates that I use
11:19
Speaker A
myself, so you can work through the lessons and start building the same type of structured trading routine that I use [music] on a daily basis. So, if you want to learn how to execute with the structure and discipline of a
11:31
Speaker A
professional trader, click on this video and grab your ticket right now. Right? Internal liquidity is pretty much like what I mentioned earlier, the liquidity between the swing low and the swing high. So you can pretty much just spot
11:45
Speaker A
the internal liquidity right now on this existing higher time frame without even jumping down to the lower time frame.
11:51
Speaker A
Right? So if you look at this, what happened was that price goes up, pulls back and then goes up, pulls back, goes up, pulls back and then goes up. Right?
12:01
Speaker A
So it create like this minor internal sort of retracements and pullbacks when price is going up just like this and we know that all of this right here is just liquidity right all of this low right here. So this becomes your internal
12:16
Speaker A
liquidity right which is like the smaller lows or highs that is from within the range right any sort of inducement that you can find in here any short-term liquidity any liquidity created during the delivery of price during the retracement of price right
12:32
Speaker A
basically like all the liquidity that we have in here in the range itself these are all like internal liquidity so like I said earlier internal liquidity acts as part of the journey rather than the final final destination, right? So, it's
12:46
Speaker A
like the internal journey is just the fuel that price needs in the short term for it to move in the direction it's meant to move in. Right? So, for example, during the continuation phase, price is going to be using whatever
12:58
Speaker A
liquidity that they can find below these lows right here to like just continue to fuel this move to the upside. And then during the retracement, during the pullback phase, price is going to build up some internal liquidity just like
13:09
Speaker A
this one right here. Came up there, swept the internal liquidity, swept the internal high right there. And then now it's going to continue going down, right? So it's like short-term fuel, right? In which price is going to take
13:20
Speaker A
advantage of so that it can fuel like the short-term move, right? So it can really once again fulfill the objective of the higher time frame. So like price can move against your directional bias, sweep internal liquidity and then
13:34
Speaker A
continue toward your external target before price go continue going up. So basically what I'm trying to say is that price can take internal liquidity on the way toward external liquidity. And a mistake that a lot of traders tend to
13:46
Speaker A
make is treating every single one of these little internal move right here as the ultimate destination for where price is going to go. When in reality it's just a in the entire machine. It's just a tiny piece of the puzzle, right?
14:02
Speaker A
It's just a little portion of the entire pie. So if you fail to identify your external liquidity, if you fail to look at the big picture and look at price from a high level like a bird eye view,
14:14
Speaker A
you might get lost in terms of like whatever that's going on right here on the internal liquidity on on the lower time frame itself. Let's jump down to the 1 hour time frame right now to make things a little bit more clearer for you
14:25
Speaker A
guys. And this is where you can see that we are pretty much in that pullback in that retracement phase right now because after a break of structure just like this we are expecting price to pull back. And where's price going to pull
14:37
Speaker A
back to potentially to this swing low right here. And if you guys use supply and demand you can also map these demand zones right here in which price is potentially moving toward next. Right?
14:47
Speaker A
Demand zones over here here and also over here. Right? So these are the zones in which price is going to move toward next. Bear in mind that at any point of time price can just come down here mitigate one of these zones and then
14:59
Speaker A
just switch bullish because there is enough fuel at that price point. So just to be clear right now the objective of price is that it has shifted bearish in the short term to facilitate the pullback which means that it's just
15:13
Speaker A
going to continue going down. And if it wants to continue going down, it needs fuel from the buy side, right? It needs buy side liquidity. Which means what's going to happen is that price going to come down here, pulls back, create like
15:25
Speaker A
an inducement, which is like a trap that is laid out by smart money to entice retail traders to enter for a position too early, right? You can see in this case, this is like a equal highs, right?
15:35
Speaker A
Classic LE liquidity sweep right here. Later on, price went up there, swept the liquidity above the equal highs and then start going down, right? So it swept the buy side liquidity and then starts going down. So this is a very classic example
15:48
Speaker A
of internal liquidity which also brings us to the next step which is identifying the liquidity that's already been taken.
15:55
Speaker A
Right? So in this case that is exactly what we have just covered right here where price went up there swept all of these highs that we have marked up right here. Swap all of those things before we got a sharp V-shaped reaction and price
16:07
Speaker A
actually started coming down. Right? So classic liquidity sw right here. Another example could potentially be this one right here where price goes down, pulls back, create like an internal high before price later on came up there, swep the internal high just like what we
16:20
Speaker A
have right here before continue going down. So don't just ask yourself where's the available liquidity. Ask yourself what liquidity has already been taken because like a liquidity sweep by itself means very little. What happens after the sweep matters much more. Like in
16:38
Speaker A
this particular example right here, price have pretty much went up there and take out the buy side liquidity and cause this significant reversal right here. So now I could potentially expect it to come down and sweep the available
16:49
Speaker A
liquidity below this low right here, which is the sellside liquidity. And just like that, it did exactly that, right? Price came up came down here. So the sellside liquidity right here before goes up and then remain stuck in this
17:03
Speaker A
consolidation here. And after liquidity is taken, what you really want to see is how aggressively price move away from that area. Right? So in this case, after price hit the highs right here, you can see there's a lot of selling pressure, a
17:14
Speaker A
lot of selling momentum causes price to do like a 180 and straight away just come down here and take out all of these lows right here. All of this liquidity here. So strong displacement, strong momentum just like this tells us that a
17:27
Speaker A
lot of sellers have actually stepped into the market right here, right? And this is where price is about to collapse. So this means that right now since price has already swept the buy side liquidity now we're expecting price
17:38
Speaker A
to come down and sweep the sellside liquidity right which is the on the opposing end which means we're expecting price to come down and sweep these lows right here. So if you are purely trading the internal liquidity internal
17:51
Speaker A
structure what you could have perhaps done in this case is to enter for a sell when price sweep all of these highs right here maybe place a stop loss above the protected high which is the high that's already swep liquidity and then
18:02
Speaker A
target the opposing side which is somewhere around here right which is where the sellside liquidity is at right you can see this would be like a pretty nice one is two hour trade so with that being said let's go back up to the
18:14
Speaker A
higher time frame just to see where price is at once again and you realize that price is still in the middle of nowhere, which means that it's really a lot more room for price to continue going down, right? So remember your
18:24
Speaker A
external liquidity below this low and above this high right here. So maybe before price wants to go up, it needs to get more fuel. And if there's not enough fuel at this area right here, it's going to come down here and set the liquidity
18:35
Speaker A
below this low right here and then goes up. And if there's not enough liquidity at this internal liquidity, it's going to continue coming down here and swap the next internal liquidity before going up. And then if there's not enough fuel
18:47
Speaker A
at this next one, then guess what? The only place you can go towards next is going to come down here and swept the external liquidity below this swing low and then cause price to go up. Right? So once again, that's the objective of
19:00
Speaker A
price. That's the destination of price. So right now, we just know that price is going to continue going down. So if I were trading this exact price action, I'm just going to be looking for shorts.
19:11
Speaker A
I'm just going to continue playing this pullback right here. But I'm not going to look for short randomly, right?
19:16
Speaker A
Because remember, I need to get my liquidity sweep taken. And in a pullback just like this, in a downtrend just like this, we want to see price sweep your buy side liquidity. And that is where we can look to get in for shorts. Right? So
19:31
Speaker A
in this case, like I said, if I'm trying to get in on this trade, I'm going down to the lower time frame. I'm identifying the internal liquidity just to make things more clearer for you guys. This right here was the last protected high
19:43
Speaker A
in the sense of that was the last high that swap liquidity. So this becomes the high of the range and this becomes the low of the range itself. So right now if we are trying to get in for a sell we
19:55
Speaker A
want to see price take out some available liquidity before continue going down. Right? So in this case price went up there pulls back goes up pulls back goes up pulls back and then goes up and then start coming down. So creating
20:08
Speaker A
all of these internal highs which means all of these are simply just liquidity building up above these highs right here. So ideally you should combine your liquidity concepts with your other market mechanics concepts. And if you do you will know that this right here is a
20:23
Speaker A
supply zone, right? And then all of these are also supply zone right here. And pretty much the same concept applies, right? Like whatever I just walked you guys through on the higher time frame, it literally applies right here as well. So in this case, we're
20:36
Speaker A
pretty much waiting for price to come up to either one of these supply zone right here. And then if it gets a liquidity sweep, right? If price take out the internal liquidity and there's enough fuel, you can potentially look to short
20:46
Speaker A
it down. And then you can look to target the opposing liquidity, right? So for example, in this case, if price comes up here, swift the liquidity above this high, above this internal low, I'm getting in for a sell right here if I
20:57
Speaker A
get my entry confirmation. And then I'm going to be pretty much placing my stop loss above the high right here and placing my takerit at the opposing end of the liquidity spectrum. Right? Which means if I'm selling at buy side
21:13
Speaker A
liquidity, I'm going to be taking profit at the next sellside liquidity, right? So I'm going to be like targeting probably somewhere around here or wherever the nearest swing low actually is. And that's pretty much the entry criteria and the exit criteria itself,
21:29
Speaker A
right? Stop loss beyond the liquidity sweep or whatever price point invalidate the trade ideal and take profit at the predetermined external liquidity or the opposing liquidity. So in this example, let's say there was not enough liquidity, right? So you actually
21:44
Speaker A
entered for a seller position right here. You try to target below this low right here, but then price actually came down here and I started reversing, right? halfway through your TP started reversing and continue going up and stopped you out. So in this example, you
21:58
Speaker A
must understand why you got stopped out. The reason why you got stopped out is because this internal liquidity was not enough, right? There was not enough fuel for price to continue going down. So as a result it might come here sweep the
22:11
Speaker A
liquidity that we have below this lows right here or something like uh do your sweep the buy side sell side liquidity and then starts going up here and then it's attracted to the next internal liquidity which is this one right here.
22:23
Speaker A
Uh and then if that one still doesn't have enough momentum it's going to go up here and sweep this one right here and then so on and so forth right until price eventually got the sell orders that it need eventually got the selling
22:34
Speaker A
pressure that it needs and cause price to continue going down. And like I said, if all of this internal liquidity is not enough, then guess where price is going to go next? It's going to go and sweep the external liquidity. So in this case,
22:47
Speaker A
on the 1 hour time frame, this was the 1 hour's high and 1 hour low that we have established, right? Within the entire range itself. And we know that there is external liquidity sitting above the high and the low, right? So internal
23:00
Speaker A
liquidity if it's not enough the only next place logically as to like where price will move toward next is going to be above this high right here right to sweep the final buy side liquidity before price actually reverse and then
23:16
Speaker A
if some reason there is still not enough liquidity right here for price to reverse then that's where we can expect a complete reversal and we get a market shift and price is going to shift from bearish to bullish. Yeah, you can see
23:26
Speaker A
how sequential this entire process is. It's like you want to see the internal liquidity get swept first and hopefully there's enough fuel for price to go down. If not, then we can expect the external liquidity to get taken out.
23:40
Speaker A
What you don't want to do is to assume that this internal liquidity sweep is the final liquidity swip like, oh, I'm going to enter for sale right here and price is just going to go down. No, that's not the case because if there's
23:51
Speaker A
not enough fuel, price can go up there and take the remaining internal liquidity. And if there's still not enough fuel, price can go up there and take the external liquidity and then go down. So once again, just to sum up the
24:02
Speaker A
entire process, what you don't want to do is, oh, there is equal highs here, so I'm just going to sell. Oh, there's equal lows here. I'm just going to enter for a buy. No, that's not how liquidity works, right? That's how stupid retail
24:15
Speaker A
traders trade. What you want to do is to start with the higher time frame trend direction and then identify the external liquidity so you can kind of know kind of gauge where price is gravitating toward next and then also what you want
24:29
Speaker A
to do is to look at what's already been swept right so you can identify the protected structure the places where price is most likely going to respect and then you can go down to a lower time frame or look at the internal structure
24:39
Speaker A
to find your internal liquidity to like what price is going to do right now and then if your entry confluences present itself you know you got entry confirmation h because you got a trade idea at a nice point of interest you got
24:50
Speaker A
your internal liquidity being swept right by all means you can go and execute the trade and manage the trade in this exact manner here so I want multiple pieces of information telling the same story rather than relying on
25:02
Speaker A
one concept right so I want to make sure that the internal and the external liquidity is kind of aligned in a sense of price needs to take the internal before it takes the external and I also want to make sure that the internal
25:14
Speaker A
structure is aligned with external swing structure so that you know I have like full trade alignment I have pretty much all the confluences all the evidence in the market for me to be confident in my trade bias. Now, with that being said,
25:27
Speaker A
before you go out there and try to think that this is a 100% win rate trading strategy, because Brett says so, no, it's not because like honest to God, sometimes I genuinely cannot even tell which side price wants to take and
25:42
Speaker A
that's completely fine. That that's okay, right? you if the structure is incredibly messy, you know, price is doing this weird consolidation price action where both sides have meaningful liquidity where price can sweep the buy side or the sell side and the sell side
25:57
Speaker A
and price just isn't showing any like intent and there's just like not a clear trading opportunity. What you don't want to do is to force a trade bias. What you don't want to do is to impose and just
26:10
Speaker A
manufacture a trade bias out of nowhere, right? just so that you need to trade, just so that you can make money for today, just so that you can actually, you know, freaking get to $10,000 a month as soon as humanly possible.
26:20
Speaker A
That's not what you want, right? What you want is to become comfortable with I don't know. Become comfortable with the uncertainty of the market, right?
26:29
Speaker A
Because like that's just the nature of the beast. And in those situations, if you really don't know what's going to happen, what you can do is to stay on the sidelines and just watch, just observe, right? Maybe wait for one side
26:41
Speaker A
to get taken out and let the reaction give you more information to tell you whether price is going to go down or go up and then decide what's the right cause of action based on whatever the market does. Because remember, being a
26:55
Speaker A
professional trader isn't about predicting every move. It's about knowing when you actually have an edge and when you don't, right? is about knowing when to trade but most importantly knowing when not to trade when to just stay out and just preserve
27:09
Speaker A
your capital so that when the opportunity do appear you can actually allocate your capital in the right way.
