Let me break down how played out in this trade:

SMC Model in Action

✔ Liquidity Sweep - Price swept below the 24h low of 62,501.0, grabbing stops before reversing

✔ Market Structure Shift - After the sweep, price broke above the previous structure, confirming the shift from bearish to bullish

✔ Fair Value Gap (FVG) - The first screenshot shows a clear imbalance around 63,675.9 - 64,956.3 (LB to BOLL)

✔ FVG Entry Zone - Second screenshot shows price returning to the FVG area (65,101.5 - 65,476.8) for the perfect retest

✔ Stop Placement - Logically placed below the FVG low to invalidate if the gap gets filled completely

✔ 1:2 Risk-to-Reward - From entry around 65,400 to target near 66,200+, this hit the exact target

Why This Works

The beauty of this setup is the mechanical precision:

· The sweep creates trapped sellers
· The structure shift confirms intent
· The FVG provides a defined, repeatable entry zone
· Price respected it perfectly, tapping the FVG then running to TP

This is textbook ICT/SMC methodology executed cleanly. The Bollinger Bands aligning with your FVG adds extra confluence.

Simple. Structured. Repeatable. \- Exactly how trading should be approached.
