The setting we’ve been waiting for has officially been activated. We have perfect alignment of demand on the higher time frame and structural confirmation on the lower time frame.
SMC Checklist
• HTF Easing: The price took advantage of the first half order block perfectly, sweeping up local liquidity before finding strong demand.
• MSS (Market Structure Shift): Confirmed. The price broke the 15m structural high, turning the trend from bearish to bullish within the HTF POI.
• IDM (temptation): The inside lure has been taken, paving the way for a clear move higher.
• RSI Divergence: We have a nice bullish divergence at the lows, confirming that the momentum has officially shifted in favor of the buyers.
Trade execution
• Entry: Now entering the retest of the MSS/Breakout zone.
• Stop Loss (SL): Below the last swing low inside H1 OB (62,340).
• Take profit 1: 63,420 (instant liquidity).
• Take profit 2: 63,800 (main structural target).
Strategy
This is the opposite of textbook SMC. By waiting for the MSS, we got the “green light” that demand for H1 holds. We trade with the new flow of the market rather than trying to catch a falling knife.
The confluence of the MSS + RSI Divergence gives us a high probability setup with a tight risk to reward ratio.
