Supply & Demand Trading — The Full Breakdown (Why Most Traders Get It Wrong — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00Most traders, they just see this area
- 0:02here as simple resistance. Either skip
- 0:04it completely or enter it wrong and get
- 0:07stopped out. I'm going to show you today
- 0:08exactly why that happens and how to
- 0:11trade supply and demand correctly and
- 0:13why it's the backbone of each trade I
- 0:15take. Stay until the end because I'm
- 0:17going to show you a real setup from this
- 0:18week and exactly how I managed it.
- 0:20Before I get into the trade breakdown,
- 0:22this is the exact trade I took this
- 0:24week. I entered in this area of supply,
- 0:27targeted that lower low, and as you can
- 0:29see, pretty much zero drawdown straight
- 0:32to TP. This wasn't luck, this was
- 0:34predetermined ages before. And by the
- 0:36end of this video, you're going to know
- 0:37exactly how to spot these for yourself.
- 0:40So before doing anything, you need to
- 0:42determine the trend, okay? Are we in an
- 0:45uptrend? If we are in an uptrend, I'm
- 0:48solely looking for areas of demand. This
- 0:51is high probability. If I am in a
- 0:54downtrend, I only want to look at areas
- 0:57of supply, okay? This is high
- 1:00probability. And why is this important
- 1:02and how does this work? You see, when
- 1:04price shifts, let's say we're in a
- 1:06downtrend, you can see we respect
- 1:09supply. Then as we push higher, we start
- 1:13to respect
- 1:14demand. So let's look at this from a
- 1:16structural basis and see what is going
- 1:19on. Once price shifts structure, all
- 1:22right, you can see if we look at the
- 1:23external highs and lows, low, high, low,
- 1:27high, low, high, low, high high. This
- 1:31shift here tells us that price has gone
- 1:33into an uptrend. We stop looking at
- 1:35supply and purely look at demand. On
- 1:37this leg down, we're purely looking at
- 1:39supply. On this leg up, we're purely
- 1:40looking at demand. Now we know that
- 1:42demand is in control, what happens? We
- 1:45still have valid areas of supply. This
- 1:49is a valid area of supply, but this we
- 1:52just expect price to pull back into
- 1:54where? An area of demand because we're
- 1:57in an uptrend to get the real move. As
- 2:00you can see here, we tap into an area of
- 2:04supply. But this area of supply is just
- 2:06going to provide a pullback into this
- 2:08area of demand
- 2:10where we can get the real move. So why
- 2:12trade the small movements when we can
- 2:14trade the big movements? How do we know
- 2:17where the big movements are going to
- 2:18come? Because it's the ones in direction
- 2:20of the trend. So remember, uptrend only
- 2:23look for demand, downtrend only look for
- 2:25supply. Here's where 90% of traders mess
- 2:27up. Now they know that, they just start
- 2:29drawing random areas. They see this as
- 2:31an area of supply, I'm going to enter
- 2:33from here. This is an area of demand,
- 2:35yeah, I'm going to enter from here. Or
- 2:37this is my area of supply here, yeah,
- 2:39let me enter from here. This doesn't
- 2:42work. You need specific criteria to
- 2:44ensure they are high probability zones.
- 2:46So what is this criteria? Well, the
- 2:48first one is price needs to create a
- 2:51break of structure. So if we're in an
- 2:53uptrend, price needs to break some sort
- 2:56of structure to the upside so we can
- 2:58have that area of supply. If we are in a
- 3:01downtrend, okay, price needs to break
- 3:04some sort of low, the price needs to
- 3:05break an external low to validate this
- 3:07area of supply. If there's no break of
- 3:09structure, there is no valid area of
- 3:12demand or supply. For example, people
- 3:14here may mark this area of demand here.
- 3:18We can see it gave a big move up and
- 3:20even left behind fair value gaps within
- 3:22this leg. However, would I use this
- 3:24based on this criteria? No, because high
- 3:28low high low high. Did this area of
- 3:33demand break structure? As we can see it
- 3:36didn't. So if the area of demand has not
- 3:38caused a break of structure, it is not
- 3:41valid. Now as price returns into this
- 3:43area, you can see it gets smoked because
- 3:46this wasn't strong enough for us. Well,
- 3:48how about this area of demand here? This
- 3:51area of demand I can see actually
- 3:54took out external structure. So, this is
- 3:57a lot more higher probability now. If I
- 3:59enter my longs in this area of demand
- 4:02targeting higher prices, I know it has a
- 4:04lot more strength. It's a lot more
- 4:05likely to work. And as we can see, it
- 4:07already tapped, gave a new high, and it
- 4:09continues to rip from there. Now, the
- 4:12second step is it needs to have
- 4:14liquidity. No liquidity, the zone is
- 4:17useless. You will be the liquidity. Here
- 4:20we have an area of supply.
- 4:23Okay. And we can see that it pushed
- 4:27price lower. However, this gets
- 4:28absolutely smoked. Why? There was no
- 4:31liquidity resting below here for price
- 4:33to sweep and then dump. That means no
- 4:36orders to take out, no movement. This
- 4:39zone is likely going to be used as
- 4:41liquidity. Let's focus on this area of
- 4:44supply here. Why is this amazing? Well,
- 4:46we can see it broke structure to the
- 4:48left.
- 4:49All right. Low high, low high, low. It's
- 4:53broken structure. That's valid. Step
- 4:56two, liquidity. Look at this.
- 4:58High here, high here, high here. We have
- 5:01all this liquidity formed within this
- 5:04area of supply, too. Now, this is an A+
- 5:07zone for you to take a trade from to
- 5:10target lower prices. We have that break
- 5:12structure, we have that downtrend, we
- 5:14have that liquidity sweep, and as you
- 5:16can see, as I play price out, it does
- 5:18dump all the way to this external low
- 5:21here, and you smash take profit. Now,
- 5:23let me show you exactly how I put this
- 5:25all together in a real live trade this
- 5:28week. I'm finding my trend, finding my
- 5:30area of supply / demand, and validating
- 5:32it. And as you can see, members are
- 5:34using this exact supply and demand
- 5:36criteria to pass their funded accounts,
- 5:39get payouts, and trade like they never
- 5:42have done before. So, getting to this
- 5:44trade breakdown, like I said, as always,
- 5:45the first thing we want to find is the
- 5:47trend and direction. I can see low,
- 5:49high, lower low. Price is pushing to the
- 5:52downside. I have decided to look for
- 5:55sells and look for areas of supply. So,
- 5:58I want to find an area of supply that
- 6:00was responsible was the criterion. First
- 6:02one was a break of structure. An area of
- 6:04supply that gave me this break of
- 6:06structure here. Now, we have really two
- 6:09areas. We have this area of supply here
- 6:12and we have this area of supply here.
- 6:16Two clean areas of supply that gave the
- 6:18break of structure. Now, what was the
- 6:20second step? Liquidity. I noticed that
- 6:23this here didn't really have much
- 6:25liquidity, whereas this lower zone was
- 6:27acting as perfect liquidity for this
- 6:30higher zone. So, while a lot of people
- 6:32were into here, I was seeing this as
- 6:33this is where we're going to fake out
- 6:35traders coming to here to get the real
- 6:37move. Everyone who limits their order
- 6:39here is going to get cooked.
- 6:44Another little step is this is
- 6:46completely fresh and unmitigated. If
- 6:48price had already returned into my area
- 6:50of supply and demand before I took a
- 6:51trade, then it becomes invalid.
- 7:00So, now as price has swept this
- 7:02liquidity, you can see we take out this
- 7:04zone. Everyone who shorted in this area
- 7:07here above this supply zone get stopped
- 7:09out. We come into to mitigate our real
- 7:12area here. I was waiting for this small
- 7:14area of demand
- 7:16to break as my confirmation, as well as
- 7:19inversing this slight 5-minute fair
- 7:22value gap here. So, now I know that this
- 7:24supply has kicked in. We have broke
- 7:26demand. We broke fair value gap. This is
- 7:28the place for me to take my trade. Stop
- 7:30loss above this high. Final target being
- 7:33that external low here. As we play trade
- 7:35out, we can see how great of a supply
- 7:37zone that was because it gave zero
- 7:39drawdown, zero fight back, beautiful
- 7:41supply that smashed to take profit. Now,
- 7:44here's where I want to be honest with
- 7:45you. I just gave you the entire full
- 7:47framework. You understand this
- 7:49conceptually, but I already know what's
- 7:50going to happen next for those watching
- 7:51this. You're going to go to your charts,
- 7:53you're going to try to draw these zones,
- 7:54and 2 weeks later, you're still going to
- 7:56be upset and angry because you can't
- 7:57quite do so. Not because the strategy is
- 7:59wrong, but because there's a gap between
- 8:01understanding something and actually
- 8:03being able to execute it live,
- 8:05especially when pressure and real money
- 8:07is on the line. That gap is exactly what
- 8:09I work on with people with my
- 8:10mentorship. I'm not in there teaching
- 8:11you supply and demand from scratch. I'm
- 8:13sitting with you and your specific
- 8:14charts, your specific mistakes, your
- 8:16specific psychology, and fixing the
- 8:18exact thing that's keeping you stuck. I
- 8:21worked with loads of traders who
- 8:22understood this stuff technically for
- 8:23years and were still blowing accounts.
- 8:25But within 8 weeks, they were
- 8:26consistently profitable, and knowledge
- 8:28was never the problem. If you want to
- 8:30apply for that, the application is in
- 8:31the link below. It'll take you no longer
- 8:33than 2 minutes, and I read every single
- 8:35one personally. If it's a right fit,
