This lesson teaches students how to identify liquidity pools and understand why price may move toward them. A liquidity sweep occurs when price moves beyond a visible level, triggers orders, and then either reverses or continues based on context.
Students learn that not every wick is a meaningful sweep. Liquidity analysis requires structure, location, and follow-through. A sweep near a major level has more meaning than a random wick in the middle of noise.
Liquidity helps traders avoid entering at vulnerable areas and improves timing around reversals and continuations.
