I've lost so many trades due to not looking for that candle closure beyond the liquidity point, this setup it FIRE and it is what I will only be using from now on to become profitable, thanks for sharing this Casper that was very nice of you!

[@lebisque9194]

I always tarde my own accounts but I was looking to try a prop firm. In researching them I watched the video you posted today, June 12, 2024. After that I was headed to watch your Full ICT Course (I still intend to finish it) but this video came up and I was intrigued. Everything you said in the video today was me. But due to that, I am better able to understand these concepts. In the past ICT used to make my brain cloud over with fog. Thank you so much for making this crystal clear. I already use FVGs, OBs, FIBS and the dead cat bounce pattern which makes it so easy for me to see the MB candle. I am just floored on how much easier you made this for me to trade and take my trades to the next level. Thank you, again.

He says he discovered it himself. Just to show that there's nothing new under the sun. All of this stuff was around 100 years ago, just under different names. Every generation likes to think they've discovered something new, except that they haven't.

Thank you so much for the kind words and support! ❤️

[@leadlefthand]

Just a few things: 1) This entry model should only be sought between 7am - 11am NY time? Is it applicable to the PM session of NY an hour before close? 2) Is it safe to try this entry on EURUSD and GBPUSD in case NAS100 doesn't have a setup for the day? 3) Regarding timeframe correlation, you used M15 - M1, and then D1 - M15. If the POI is using H4 or H1, I'm assuming the entry is in M5?

[@aaronguerrerox]

This is awesome thanks for sharing! Question, So we know that the candle needs to close beyond liquidity, in HTF POI. How quick do the following candles need to displace to the opposite side in order to verify this as a manipulation block? 2,4,8? Does it matter?

[@aaronmohammed6486]

This is straight fire!. Thanks for sharing this insight.

[@caspersmc]

You're welcome! 🙏

[@mattia_marin]

great video honestly thank you so much. Just a question, does the manipulation block candle have to fit between the 1 and 0.75 on the fib?

[@realrykoszet]

I Invented it as well and I dont trade ICT. A lot of stuff that You are showing I invented as well. But I learn sometning new as well. Well done

[@caspersmc]

🙏🤝

[@DIYerGirl]

I feel more confident understanding this concept. I'm applying it to past sessions, and it's impressive how accurate it is. For me, getting the mechanics is the easy part; executing is the combination of mechanics/technical analysis, confidence and conviction to let 'er rip, with the SL in place, of course.

[@caspersmc]

That’s fantastic to hear!

[@ajr1247]

Casper, the MB is terrific. It works like a swiss watch. ❤

[@nikolakosanovic5180]

Hey man, great contetnt! Just one question, youre looking for single candle close and displacement on second candle, or its okay to have 1-2 candles below level of low that is swept ?

[@Kelvinatie]

Nice concept Casper. Good discovery. We can as well call it a CMB (Casper Manipulation Block). Thumbs up

[@caspersmc]

Thank you so much! 🙏🤝

[@DavidKizer-w2l]

What exactly? the candle closure liquidity sweep aspect?

[@EmogiBags]

definitely the sweep aspect

[@2b_0r_n0t_2b]

Holy shit this is gold, whipped up 4H NQ to optically back-test this - 4H manipulation block 16th October - PT 20927.25 on NQ which tags daily HTF ERL.

[@MikeSHogan]

A great video thanks and I look forward to testing it out next week. Just one question though, the HTF/LTF relationship is obviously important. In the example you used moving from daily to 15 minute might not have worked if you had jumped down to the 5 minute because that 15 minute candle would have been made up of 3 x 5 minute candles. So which HTF/LTF combo's do you recommend?

[@lancesinger8243]

Awesome video, cant wait to start to implement this. I always felt that I would get the direction right but not right away I would get stopped out and then the market would move in the direction I intended just like you said at the beginning of this video.

[@caspersmc]

Glad it was helpful!

[@mariaalexis2431]

Thanks a lot for clarifying that! Much appreciated.

[@T_Prodigy]

Awesome video! For a 15min FVG, is the 1min timeframe OR 5min timeframe better for locating the manipulation block?

Jessie I just want you to know that you have single handily changed my trading bro thank you

[@caspersmc]

Your words mean a lot to me, thank you. 🙏🤝

[@Viper_0930]

Also when drawing the fib are you drawing it off the the candle that has been engulfed or off the engulfing candle itself?

[@guztavomunoz9128]

Used this last night for $YM1 and sheeeesh, woke up with positions closed in TP. It makes sense why you have to use all confluences!! GOOD VID

[@caspersmc]

That's fantastic to hear!

[@keithconner2935]

Standard deviation measures the dispersion of a dataset relative to its mean and is calculated as the square root of the variance.. you are using your target of 4 as a unit of measurement comparative to the area you chose to measure with your zero to 1. -1 is a 1 to 1 risk reward, -2 is a 2 to 1 and your -4 is a 4 to 1 reward to Risk. It is not a std deviation of a data set. Not trying to be mean or to troll anyone but properly educating your viewers provides more legitimacy to the information you are providing.

[@caspersmc]

100% correct - in trading analysis standard deviation is a commonly used term for replicating a measured move. You are correct though in terms of data of course - which is not what we're talking about.

[@alanbond8147]

Agree. ICT misuses the term std dev.

[@SF-cv1sf]

@@caspersmc😂 commonly used in trading? why? Because ICT made a mistake, spread away and now the mistake becomes a “standard”? The famous bollinger bands uses the correct definition of standard deviation though.

[@marcinczytelnik3950]

Exactly 'measured move' should be used. IT is not a big deal to use 'standard deviation' the idea is the expansion comes from mb and this momentum is measured by the range of mb candle as if mb candle was a mean of the uptranding channel. IT also makes sense a a concept.

Hey wanted to ask what time frame is best for this and if we have fvg on 1H and 4H which one we using?

[@neckupfitness3274]

Is your example at 8:40 basically a iFVG? I get the strong down candle sweeping and closing, but that makes it a valid iFVG, correct? I guess like you said at the beginning of the video, there are a lot of ICT concepts and interpretations. Great video!

[@kbdigital8001]

Can i use the manipulation solely on higher TF swing highs and swing lows for entry,is it a necessity to consider IRL's when looking for entries?

[@mercyandtruth316]

I love this video, and I'm sharing it with friends. I wonder if you would share what you do when there are several successive Candles Closing into the Zone. How do you decide which one to trade from? And, if you have a loss from a reversal back against you, but then there are more candles that Close in the Zone, will you take more trades? Thanks again.

[@benitocelis]

Thank you for the information!!! Could you tell me what is the indicator you use to see the pair, your name and the TF at the bottom of the chart?

[@IamVengeance-lz4xs]

Sir if there is no Munipulative block and there is 1 min MSS , than how does the fib tool work , does it work in this condition ?

[@TheForexExpert]

Great video but a close on one TF is a wick on another so what is the time frame correlation? eg HTF 15 min LTF 1 min? Hope you get my meaning.

[@secrettrader-og4eb]

So what if theres no close below swing point, yet market goes way up from a simple pinbar candle that didnt close below swing point? Does this just work when it works? And other times market can shoot straight up even tho no candle closing below a swing point?

[@secrettrader-og4eb]

Or does the body of the pinbar only count, and not the tail? If thats the case the manip blosk almost closes below pin bar's body bui not quite, no matter what tf I use. 5m, 30m, hour, 4hr, dont matter what tf I use, the candle doesnt close below the swing point today at 12'20 pm on QQQ. It dug into OB and went up 3 dollars but no closing of any candles below swing point. I guess it's just not how it works on every swing back up? Some swings just dont get a manipulation block? Btw, thanks Casper for all your help.

[@omarpoda01]

Damn this has been there all along, if you check the charts almost every sweep has this type of candle Thanks Bro this changes everything n it works not only in fvg but also any other liquidity sweep

[@bensonmwamba6180]

Appreciate it, Casper🙏🏽Many thanks and keep up the good work

[@marcuswynn1448]

Correct me if I'm wrong. I have seen other teachings on this topic, but the main difference here seems to be 1) the piercing of the OB area or FVG and 2) the measurement is on the one candle that gets engulfed vs. the range that started the move up or down to the point of reversal. Hope this makes sense. I've watched the video three times, and this is my takeaway. I'd like to see some more examples of this unfolding in the charts.

[@ohaznessa2861]

Where did you see other examples

[@DeftDomain]

ICT himself kinda already taught this. He has always said that candle closing through liquidty is preferred for a "real" confirmed sweep. But what your highlighting is actually a CiSD (Change in State of Delivery) This is defined as a candle CLOSE sweep through a relative euqal highs/lows liquidity level and has sweep reversal confirmed by the first opposite color candle that closes past the full body of the liquidation candle.

[@faridumar1219]

okay? i guess

this is amazing. Gonna apply it from now on as looking back, this piece was missing from entries that got SO but then went in my direction. I LOVE WHEN YOU SHARE TID BITS THAT YOU NOTICE FROM ALL YOUR SCREEN TIME. Regarding the fib settings except for 4SD- Do you TP at those levels and/or watch for candle signatures at those levels for possible reversals?
