Lecture Notes: External and Internal Range Liquidity Model
Key Concepts
- Internal Range Liquidity: Refers to fair value gaps within a range. Examples include bearish and bullish fair value gaps.
- External Range Liquidity: Involves swing highs or swing lows outside the range.
- Price Movement Relationship: Price is expected to oscillate between internal and external range liquidity.
- Trend Shift or Movement: Changes the cycle of oscillation between liquidity ranges.
Process Overview
-
Higher Time Frame Bias
- Determine if price is expected to move higher or lower.
- Look for internal range liquidity (fair value gap) or external range liquidity (high/low swing).
-
Lower Time Frame Analysis
- Look for a stop raid and change in the state of delivery.
- Target a 2:1 risk-to-reward (2R) trade.
- Ensure all actions are within a "Kill Zone."
Example Walkthrough
Example 1: Gold on the Weekly Chart
- Higher Time Frame: Weekly chart bias is bullish; anticipating a move to previous week's high.
- 4-Hour Time Frame: Look for displacement towards objective with fair value gap or low sweep.
- 15-Minute Chart: Confirm change in state of delivery; target external range liquidity.
Example 2: Daily Chart Analysis
- Daily Chart: Swept daily low; looking for bullish price movement the following day.
- Hourly Chart: Internal range liquidity is a fair value gap; external range liquidity is identified as highs.
- 5-Minute Chart: Identify change in delivery state; manage entries for 2R target.
