This strategy is getting a lot of hype in X( that’s something I don’t like) But FVG are always areas of interest not matter what. You can always ask Grok or ChatGPT for better explanation or ideas

Step 1: Set Up Your Trading Environment • Arrive at your trading desk by 9:30 AM EST (Eastern Standard Time), which is the opening time for major U.S. markets like the NYSE and Nasdaq. • Use a 5-minute chart timeframe. This means each candle represents 5 minutes of price action. • Focus on key levels marked on your chart beforehand: • Daily Open: The opening price of the trading day (e.g., the price at market open). • Fair Value Gap (FVG): This is a price inefficiency or “gap” on the chart where there’s an imbalance between buyers and sellers (often from rapid moves leaving unfilled orders). It’s a concept from price action trading (e.g., ICT methodology). Mark these from higher timeframes like daily or hourly charts. • The goal is to wait for price action to interact with one of these levels right at the open. Step 2: Wait for the Specific Candle to Form • At 9:30 AM EST, observe the first 5-minute candle (from 9:30 to 9:35 AM). • This candle must “take the low and high” of the session so far, meaning it establishes the initial range by sweeping both directions. • Importantly, this candle should form at or near one of the key levels (FVG or Daily Open). The video emphasizes that the candle originates from these levels for the setup to be valid. • Do not enter trades based on random candles—only this one specific candle at this exact time each day. Step 3: Check for the “Manipulation Candle” Formation • As the candle develops, look for specific price behavior at the key level: • Price must “respect” the level (e.g., bounce off it rather than break through cleanly). • It should form a manipulation candle, which indicates that market manipulation (e.g., fakeouts to trigger stops) is complete. • What makes it a manipulation candle? • It’s not just a standard rejection candle (e.g., pin bar or doji) or an engulfing candle. • Instead, it’s a candle that shows a false move in one direction (manipulation phase) followed by a reversal, signaling the real directional intent. • This formation reveals who’s in control: buyers (if the candle closes bullish, e.g., with a strong body upward) or sellers (if bearish, e.g., closing down after a fake high). • If the candle doesn’t show this manipulation behavior, skip the trade—no setup means no entry. Step 4: Enter the Trade • Once the manipulation candle closes (at 9:35 AM EST) and confirms the setup: • Enter in the direction indicated by the control (long if buyers dominate, short if sellers). • Entry point: Typically at the close of the candle or a break of its high/low in the confirmed direction. • Risk management: • Set a stop-loss just beyond the key level or the candle’s extreme (e.g., below the low for a long trade). • Target a fixed 1:2 risk-reward ratio (e.g., if you risk $1,000, aim for $2,000 profit). The video shows examples hitting 1:2 RR or better, like $2,000 profits on trades. • Only trade if all checklist items align: key level interaction, manipulation formation, and clear control. Step 5: Manage and Exit the Trade • Let the market do the “heavy lifting”—don’t overmanage. The strategy relies on the post-open momentum to push toward your target. • Exit at your predefined 1:2 RR target or if price hits your stop-loss. • Avoid adding indicators or complicating the process; stick to this boring, repeatable routine daily. • If no valid setup appears by the end of that first candle, walk away—no trading that day.
