October 20 — NQ Close Above, Then Higher.

Price is inside the 4H bullish FVG and just swept the London low inside it. That makes this a no-short area until the liquidity above is taken. I'm looking for a 1H closure above, then a run up through the midnight open into the London / overnight high, with the 10/19 highs above that. No closure, no long.

NQ 4H — 4H — Inside The 4H Bullish FVG. No Shorts Here

Price is inside the 4H bullish FVG (BISI) and just took the London low 10/20 inside it, around the C.E. This is a no-short area until the liquidity above is taken out: the London high 10/20, the Asia high 10/19, the 1H high 10/19, and the previous day high 10/19.

NQ 1H — 1H — Looking For A 1H Closure Above

The London / overnight low got taken and we got a reaction. Now I'm looking for a 1H candle to close above. That's the trigger. From there the path is up through the midnight open into the London / overnight high 10/20, with low-resistance liquidity above that into the 1H and Asia highs from 10/19.

The One Thing To Respect

A bullish array tells you where not to short. It doesn't tell you when to buy. The 4H FVG says no shorts here until the liquidity above is taken. The 1H closure is what turns that into a long.

Direction being obvious is never the same as an entry being available. No 1H closure above, no trade.
