Full transcript
- 0:00all right this is attempt number two to
- 0:03make this video
- 0:04um we are currently in Miami right now
- 0:06and I recorded this
- 0:08I recorded this
- 0:09um out on the balcony but my uh computer
- 0:12overheated so this is going to be take
- 0:15two and probably a sloppier version of
- 0:18it but uh what's good Jets uh welcome to
- 0:21[ __ ] boot camp day I don't even know
- 0:2516 or 15 maybe four I have no clue what
- 0:29day it is
- 0:30um but yeah we're in this [ __ ] I think
- 0:32we tapped it what like uh we've stopped
- 0:36two weeks now right
- 0:38um but anyways today we're talking about
- 0:40fair value gaps
- 0:42um liquidity voids imbalances whatever
- 0:45you guys want to call them in the market
- 0:46and most of the time we would do this on
- 0:49like a little chart but as you guys know
- 0:51how we've been setting like this whole
- 0:52[ __ ] up uh for you know this boot camp
- 0:56I'm pretty much going to split up all
- 0:58those little building blocks into three
- 1:00separate videos
- 1:02um just so you guys have like a chance
- 1:03to take everything in and like actually
- 1:04properly understand the [ __ ]
- 1:07um so today it's literally just gonna be
- 1:08one-on-one me explaining what fair value
- 1:11gaps are why we want to use them how we
- 1:14can understand them in the market to you
- 1:16know actually be confident in taking a
- 1:19trade based off of it because for me I
- 1:21would much rather you know have a uh
- 1:25take a trade based off of actual like
- 1:27Market Confluence and orders being
- 1:29filled and actually seeing that versus
- 1:31oh it bounced off a floor or like it hit
- 1:34a ceiling so it's going to go down like
- 1:37are we being dead ass about that off of
- 1:38a drawing that you put on chart you know
- 1:40like I have no hate towards supporting
- 1:42resistance Traders it just doesn't make
- 1:43sense to me why you would you know
- 1:45essentially bet on something
- 1:47um like that but I mean hey some people
- 1:49make money doing it this just makes more
- 1:51sense to me it makes me feel safer about
- 1:52putting money into the market so with
- 1:55that being said let's get into fair
- 1:57value gaps part [ __ ] one boys
- 2:00um so what is a fair value Gap what's a
- 2:03liquidity void what's an imbalance it's
- 2:05literally all of those are pretty much
- 2:07the same thing so I like to call it just
- 2:09a liquidity void so similar to how we
- 2:12talked about liquidity in those past
- 2:13three trading videos that's where you
- 2:16know orders are residing that's where
- 2:17Market wants to Target to take out those
- 2:19orders to execute those orders at this
- 2:21certain price point this is quite
- 2:23literally the opposite this is a void a
- 2:26price range where there are no no
- 2:29contradicting orders so if we see a big
- 2:32move up right why are we seeing that
- 2:35move up in the first place because
- 2:36there's no sell orders through that
- 2:38price range that's the that's the
- 2:40liquidity void that's the imbalance
- 2:41that's the fair value Gap same thing to
- 2:43the downside right if we see a big drop
- 2:44to the downside with no like hesitation
- 2:47and it just dumps right that's a
- 2:49liquidity void that's the imbalance and
- 2:51why is why is it a liquidity void
- 2:53because there's literally no no resting
- 2:55buy orders throughout that massive drop
- 2:57down if there were resting buy orders
- 2:59price would go down oh pull up a little
- 3:01bit go down a little bit more yes maybe
- 3:03it's bearish and it still closes bearish
- 3:05but there's still resting buy orders so
- 3:07this is what
- 3:09um it helps us do we can actually be
- 3:11able to spot where there is no liquidity
- 3:13on the market and if we think about this
- 3:15logically right when we're within a
- 3:17trend and price obviously moves with
- 3:19higher highs and higher lows where are
- 3:22those higher lows going to draw to where
- 3:23are those retracements going to draw to
- 3:25you know probably into those areas that
- 3:29where liquidity was not before right and
- 3:32then what's going to happen once we get
- 3:34into those areas market makers can
- 3:36execute their orders because they know
- 3:37right there is a emptiness of liquidity
- 3:40they know that right when they Place
- 3:42their orders within there Market's going
- 3:43to move in their Direction so how is
- 3:45this beneficial to us how can we you
- 3:47know we'll talk about how we can spot it
- 3:48in two days on the next trading video
- 3:51but why is this beneficial to us one it
- 3:54helps us accurately kind of understand
- 3:55okay where does price want to draw to
- 3:58when it's retracing right fair value
- 4:00gaps are used for retracements I don't
- 4:01use fair value gas for
- 4:03like entries necessarily I use liquidity
- 4:08sweeps to understand where Market's
- 4:10going and then I use fair value gaps to
- 4:13kind of like
- 4:14figure out where price maybe wants to
- 4:16draw to or for like a secondary entry
- 4:18and we'll go into all of that stuff once
- 4:20we get deeper into strategy but
- 4:23um this is super useful because we see
- 4:26price in an uptrend drawing back down
- 4:28and we can find a liquidity void and
- 4:30then we see a reaction off of that or
- 4:32like a breaker structure on a lower time
- 4:34frame boom like why wouldn't you execute
- 4:36that because you know there's a lack of
- 4:38orders lying within there you know the
- 4:39trend is going up and if you see a
- 4:41breaker structure on a smaller time
- 4:43frame after a fair value gap or an
- 4:45imbalance or liquidity void getting
- 4:47filled on a larger time frame why
- 4:49wouldn't you enter there you know that's
- 4:51literally you know you see okay prices
- 4:53in this range where there's a lack of
- 4:55liquidity for opposing orders right if
- 4:58we're in an uptrend there's no sell
- 4:59orders laying within here and then we
- 5:01see a breaker Market structure on a
- 5:02lower time frame why wouldn't you
- 5:04execute right doesn't that make so much
- 5:06sense for you to execute on a trade like
- 5:08that versus oh price hit
- 5:12my
- 5:13[ __ ] ceiling are we being dead ass
- 5:16right now like let's use our let's use
- 5:19our brains okay
- 5:21um so I mean with that being said that's
- 5:23that that literally is what what fair
- 5:25value gaps are it's literally just a
- 5:27lack of orders within the market and
- 5:28that's what causes the imbalance to be
- 5:30made the
- 5:31um the big ass candle right you guys are
- 5:34and we'll talk about how to spot them in
- 5:35two days but when you guys like see them
- 5:38within the market most the time it's a
- 5:40big candle down why because there's
- 5:41literally no orders stopping it from
- 5:43dropping that far down
- 5:45um same thing with the upside there's no
- 5:47sell orders within there that's stopping
- 5:48it from pushing so high up
- 5:50um and then when price comes back into
- 5:52that range
- 5:53right it gives the market makers to you
- 5:55know the opportunity to keep pushing
- 5:57price in the direction that they want to
- 5:59um and again once we start getting all
- 6:02these pieces it's like you know I'm sure
- 6:04even after this video you'll you guys
- 6:07were so we'll start looking into that
- 6:08even more by just seeing okay we got
- 6:10liquidity sweep breaker structure we see
- 6:13the trend starting to form and then okay
- 6:15now I have a fair value Gap oh I notice
- 6:17it gets filled smaller time frame break
- 6:19of structure boom we're in okay and it's
- 6:23it's literally as simple as that like
- 6:24that people really make trading a lot
- 6:26harder than it has to be and you guys
- 6:28can really [ __ ] simplify it if you
- 6:30just say okay this is exactly how price
- 6:33moves you know what do we use for Value
- 6:35gaps for retracements cool when we see a
- 6:38retracement in the market figure out
- 6:39where the imbalance is scale down to a
- 6:41lower time frame find a break of
- 6:43structure continuation boom like come on
- 6:46like that [ __ ] is so easy
- 6:48um and then you know liquidity sweeps
- 6:50okay we see liquidity taken out of the
- 6:51market okay if we see a breakup
- 6:53structure perfect execute right all of
- 6:55these building blocks we I pretty much
- 6:57have the set up so it's like one size
- 6:58fits all right you can trade this on any
- 7:00time frame you can trade this
- 7:02with any [ __ ] pair right you can
- 7:05literally apply these Concepts to every
- 7:07Financial Market
- 7:08um because this is how price literally
- 7:10moves this is how the market moves and
- 7:13that's why I love the way that I trade
- 7:14because you can do this on any time
- 7:15frame if you can't sit on your computer
- 7:17for like two hours a day
- 7:20um you know like scalping or like you
- 7:23know actually monitoring it you can do
- 7:24swing trades where it takes several days
- 7:26to hit
- 7:27um and as we start adding all the
- 7:29building blocks you'll start to see like
- 7:31okay I can use this I can use this and I
- 7:34don't really understand this so I don't
- 7:35need it right that's the nice thing
- 7:37about this all of these are pretty much
- 7:38execution like pieces and it's just like
- 7:42which ones you want to use and the more
- 7:44that you know the better because then
- 7:45it's like holy [ __ ] now I have like five
- 7:47different confirmations that I can go
- 7:49off of that are all very high Confluence
- 7:51and that are all based off of actually
- 7:52like Market execution and orders being
- 7:54filled who wouldn't want to place a bet
- 7:58on that that's why I love trading
- 7:59because I can be like okay yeah I'm
- 8:00actually going to bet on this because I
- 8:02actually believe in this versus you know
- 8:05oh like I think it's going to go down
- 8:07because it you know like hit a ceiling
- 8:10just [ __ ] don't make no sense
- 8:12um so with that being said
- 8:14that's where value gaps explained we'll
- 8:16talk about how to spot them tomorrow no
