9EMA Trading Setups · Neutral

Liquidity Sweep

Identify liquidity grabs and potential reversals.

This is the liquidity-sweep setup already documented for 9. Price trades beyond a prior high or low and then closes back inside the range.

This is an example of how traders often plan the pattern. It is not a promise that price will reach the target.

Identification

  • A prior high or low is visible.
  • Price trades beyond that level.
  • Price then closes back inside the prior range.

Market context

The educational entry is after the reclaim, in the opposite direction of the sweep. The sweep can be above a high or below a low, so the direction is not fixed.

Entry example

Price trades beyond a prior high or low, then closes back inside the range. The educational entry is after that reclaim, in the opposite direction of the sweep.

Stop-loss example

Beyond the wick that swept the level.

Target example

The opposite side of the range, or the middle of the range. Neither outcome is guaranteed.

Common mistakes

  • Entering while price is still outside the range.
  • Treating every wick through a level as a completed sweep.
