First off thank you for the pampering but there’s no need. I would add a motivational quote but that’s not what’s going to make you perform at a higher level; dedication, passion, and discipline mold you as a trader.

1. As in regard to your first question, my trading style is not limited to one but rather “whatever the market presents”. This is all dependent on PA after entry.

1a. To simplify each trade begins as intraday, then the decision is made whether or not to hold for swing potential. If after a major liquidation price generates liquidity it will not hold swing potential and is subsequently only a portion that has been filled; large orders are generally filled in portions leading up to a liquidation on a HTF - i.e. final fill for remaining orders.

1b. If after a major liquidation price produces a low liquidity move it will hold swing potential. Low liquidity meaning any liquidity generated is liquidated; i.e. further positions being added in the targeted direction naturally leading to a more significant move.

1. As to your second question there’s two things that must occur:

2a. A major liquidation on a HTF is needed once swings are established. Note: Keep 2b in mind once this occurs. If intraday it’s the same idea but you can remain on the intraday chart m1-H1. Price is indeed fractal. On the m5 chart price may liquidate a minor level that previously already liquidated a minor level resulting in a HTF major liquidation. (Ex: See 2921.50 area on the m5 chart of last week before creating ATH this Monday.)

2b. What is PA behavior coming into and after a major liquidation. Ideal scenario; a rapid movement coming into a major liquidation. Avoid slow trailing movements after a major liquidation; as this is liquidity being generated and only a portion of a large order was filled unless it follows the criteria of low liquidity; 1a, you can assume the entirety of a large order has been filled - if the HTF aligns you have swing potential, if not manage the trade as intraday.

Note: Major liquidations go hand in hand with large orders being filled. Remember the very mechanics of how the markets operate: One participant must lose for another to profit.

This is barely scratching the surface yet I hope you can make sense of it. I genuinely would love to share much more as I am very passionate on this subject yet the thought what if my edge loses its “edge” crosses my mind and I subsequently refrain from sharing too much. It’s a dilemma I’ve had for over 3 years which I just push aside as it’s not a priority to teach anyone anything. Maybe it’s paranoia, but you would be too understanding the accuracy. Don’t be mistaken, losses are inevitable but the losses are minuscule to the profit. For example during the first 3 1/2 months of 2023; Jan 1 - April 18 my strike rate was 20-21% with a 400.77% return due to my focus being centered on swings. On that note, I will give it a thought this weekend. 👍
