Shadowing Practice: ULTIMATE Supply and Demand Masterclass (Beginner to Pro) - Learn English Speaking with Video

In this masterclass, I'm going to teach you everything that you need to know about one of the best concepts in trading, supply and demand.

We are going to go through all of this and by the end of the video, you will fully understand the theory of supply and demand and how to apply it to find great trades.

So with that said, let's get into the video.

To briefly explain the theory of supply and demand, this is the thing that drives all markets.

So we're looking at a price scale here And when demand increases, so this will be our demand line, we see an increase in the price of an asset.

So let's peg this to gold for this example.

As demand for gold increases, the price of gold also increases.

This happens because the supply of gold that's available, ready to trade in the market, declines with the increase in demand.

Now, why does this happen?

Why does supply fall as demand rises? as well.

It's because of course

if there are lots of people trying to buy an asset

i.e. there is lots of demand then there are going to be people buying

that asset taking available supply off of the market.

So that means as demand increases more assets are bought up and the supply will decrease.

A lower supply creates higher scarcity and a higher scarcity demands higher prices

because of course

if something is rare versus something that's not rare the price is going to be more expensive for the rare item.

Okay.

That is simply how it works.

It's a very simple format.

If we then saw demand start to slow down, so we saw the market coming back down in terms of demand,

this would mean people are selling their assets.

Now, if they're selling their assets, the supply is going to increase.

Okay.

And as supply increases, of course, there are more readily available units in the market, which generally means if there is less scarcity,

the price is therefore going to decrease.

So as we see an increase in demand, we see supply lowering because the assets are being bought up.

When we see demand decrease, we see more assets being sold to the market.

Therefore, a lower price comes in due to the fact that there is now more available supply, less scarcity, and simply the fact that if demand's low,

pretty much means no one wants the asset.

To bring supply and demand into our actual trading and our technical analysis, we do this using zones.

So this here and this here indicate supply and demand zones.

A demand zone is an area in the market before a large upward move.

So when we see a sideways bit of price action, can be an individual candle, show you some examples in a moment, and then a large push away, this creates a demand zone.

When we see the same, that kind of sideways price action of one candle or maybe more before a large move down, this creates a supply zone.

Now to talk about the theory as to why this happens, basically the reason that we use this as our demand zone

or our supply zone is because it's showing us where buying and selling pressure came into the market.

Now in order for the market to slow down, kind of recoil and consolidate before a large push up, that tells us that this region here,

where it slowed down, where it went sideways, is where massive buying orders have been placed.

That is why the market drove higher because demand kicked in here, supply was bought up the price appreciates because of that increase in demand and decrease in supply.

In the supply example here we see the area of consolidation

before a large move down as essentially a point where new supply has entered the market.

Demand has declined, more assets have been sold readily available to trade, therefore with more supply and lower demand the price depreciates.

Now the way that we actually trade these then is to buy demand zones

when the the market returns to them or to sell supply zones when the market returns to them as well.

So in the case of a demand zone, knowing that this area here is an area where significant buying has taken place, we know that this is what we could call a discount price.

Traders before saw this as a very good price to buy this asset.

So they stepped in in mass and we saw that large drive of momentum.

If we then get up to this point and we start to slow down, this is telling us

that the price up here is no longer seen as a discount price to buy

and it's no longer seen as a good price to purchase this asset.

However we know, we have solid confirmation that this area here was indeed seen as a good place to buy from, a good price level to purchase this asset.

So the theory is and the concept is

if the market is to return to this price range again

we are likely to see a second phase of buying coming in because this is a discount price region.

If it was a good price to buy before and now the market's appreciated, you can be damn sure it's going to be seen by a lot of people as a good price to buy again.

The same goes for supply, except this is what we would call a premium price level.

So this was a premium price to sell your assets at, whether you are taking a buy trade and you're closing out for profit,

or you're getting into a short sell position where you've sold with the intention of profiting from a down move.

regardless it's a premium price to sell from and now the market's lower so

if you're holding a buy maybe you don't want to sell it down here you'd rather sell it up here

because the higher you sell it for the more profit you're going to get and

if you want to get into a short position to profit

from a down move well you don't want to do it down here

because if you do it from up here you're going to get a much better entry

which means more profits this entire range you could actually profit

from instead of just you know selling all the way down here and hoping the market doesn't return.

So therefore with this understanding that this is a premium price to sell from

if the market is able to return to this level again

this is going to be a prime place to place a short order and to profit therefore from the move down.

So that is how supply and demand zones work.

Let's take a look at those on real charts.

So here we have a market that is in a downtrend.

We're going to identify a supply zone

and show you what it looks like in the real markets on a real candlestick chart.

So we can see we have this big push to the downside.

This candle here is an area of consolidation.

Now how do we indicate an area of consolidation or indecision?

Generally when we are plotting supply

and demand the simple rule is to use an indecision candle and I like to use the last candle before the impulse.

Okay so what this means is I don't care what color the candle is, but I want to see the last candle before an impulsive move away.

So if we take a look at this one here and we take a look at this one here, these are indecision candles.

They are indicated as indecision by the fact they have large wicks and very small candle bodies.

Wicks show rejected prices.

So what we're seeing here with these wicks is attempts to go higher, attempts to go lower.

And what we see with a small candle body is pretty much failure to get far in one direction either way.

Okay, we didn't get high, we didn't get low in this given period of price action.

So this creates an indecision candle.

Now we are looking for the last indecision candle before an impulsive move.

An impulsive move is a strong bearish or bullish candle or a series of strong bearish and bullish candles.

So you can see the candle I've just marked here, this is a impulsive candle.

It's a large sell candle with no resistance from the buyers.

We see as well, this one after this indecision candle is a large selling candle with clear strength from sellers.

Okay.

No resistance from buyers.

So that is how we're going to be plotting these in real time.

We want to see the last indecision candle before the impulse.

Last candle before the impulse is the rule I use.

100

Now, if you've learned supply and demand anywhere else before, you might have the last down candle before the up move, the last up candle before the down move as a rule.

101

I don't use that, I use the last candle before the impulse.

102

The reason I do this is because it is this candle here where the selling pressure has accumulated, okay?

103

It's not the last up candle where the selling pressure came in.

104

This was a strong bullish candle.

105

It's here.

106

It's the very last candle before the impulsive move.

107

It's exactly where the momentum has built up to create a selling move.

108

It's the selling pressure.

109

So that is the rule, last candle before the impulse.

110

It's going to be the one that we use for our supply zones okay

111

so now to show you this example we're going to focus

112

in on this one we're going to talk a bit more about differentiating zones a bit later

113

but for now we've got our supply zone to mark a supply zone we find

114

that last candle before the impulse

115

and we want to mark the high to the low

116

that includes the wicks

117

so our supply zone would be this okay we've just gone

118

high to low of this candle what we would then expect is for the market to return to this level

119

and then sell off from there because we know that that's where the selling pressure has been previously.

120

We know this is a premium price to sell from

121

so we would expect that to take place once again and this is going to be a supply zone.

122

So we're going to market SZ.

123

Why is it supply?

124

Because it's in a downtrend.

125

It's a selling move.

126

Demand is obviously when we pull back to a buying zone.

127

Supply is when we pull back to a selling zone.

128

So this is a supply zone.

129

So what we could generally expect to see from here then, having plotted that correctly, would be the market to return to here.

130

We would look to sell there and then we would profit from a new low being formed as the market falls.

131

So just as a very simple example trade, we would have our entry there, stop above the zone and our target down at the low.

132

We're going to get more into all of this stuff soon, but first brief example, here it is.

133

So there we go.

134

We see the market push into the supply zone.

135

And what actually happens here

136

when the supply zone is hit is a new wave of selling pressure comes in because of that discount price level.

137

Because that premium price has been hit, sellers that sold here before are more than happy to sell here again.

138

And you get this nice positive movement straight down to your target, which is, of course, how we make profits from supply and demand.

139

Now, one very important thing about supply and demand is that you use it in line with the overall trend direction.

140

So we can see this market is falling.

141

It's creating lower lows and lower highs, meaning every low is lower than the previous one and every high is lower than the previous one as well.

142

So what this tells us is that the market is in what we call a downtrend, okay?

143

And in a downtrend, we only want to focus on selling supply zones.

144

We do not want to buy demand zones.

145

If we take a look at this market, we have multiple areas we could see potentially as demand zones.

146

But if we were to buy these every time the market came into them, we would be destroyed, okay?

147

All of these areas would classify as demand zones.

148

But if you were buying here on the way down, you're buying here, you're buying here, you're going to get killed.

149

You're going to lose loads of trades.

150

So the kind of sneaky thing about supply and demand is that supply and demand zones visibly appear everywhere, but you need to trade them in context.

151

So in a market that is moving down, we only want to sell from supply zones.

152

We do not want to focus on demand zones.

153

Now I'm going to give you a very quick class on market structure to explain it.

154

Let's go.

155

So through this phase of price action, just here we can see the market is creating higher highs

156

and higher lows okay

157

so a higher high very simply is just a high like

158

this that's been printed in the market that's higher than the previous one

159

higher lows again it's just a low that's higher than the previous one

160

so as the market is creating higher highs and higher lows

161

that puts it in an uptrend and

162

that means the only thing we should focus on doing here

163

is buying demand zones we should not sell supply through here so this is an uptrend.

164

We want to buy demand and that is how we trade when the market is forming higher highs and higher lows.

165

At this point we see the market shift and it actually breaks into what we call a lower low.

166

How do we get this?

167

Well simply this low is lower than the previous one therefore it's a lower low

168

and through any phase of price action where we can clearly define the market as creating

169

lower lows as well as lower highs, we want to be selling supply.

170

So if the lows start to form lower than the previous ones, and if the highs start to form lower than the previous ones, this puts us into a downtrend.

171

And during a downtrend, we want to pretty much ignore demand zones.

172

And in here, we want to sell supply.

173

Now, there will be a card in the top corner of this video.

174

If you really want further depth on market structure, lucky for you, I have a full masterclass on that as well.

175

Click in the top right somewhere and that'll take you to it.

176

So here we have a market that is creating lower lows and lower highs.

177

Therefore, what would we want to do?

178

We would want to sell from supply zones.

179

Now, an extra little lesson woven in here.

180

I'm going to use this sideways candle, this pullback candle, this kind of indecision candle in this downward move as supply.

181

As we can see in this example, there is a little wick here that extends further on the next candle.

182

So I would actually use this candle to mark my range, the blue one, but I will extend the high of the zone to the wick that's been created by the next following candle.

183

Okay.

184

So we use the high there down to the low here that creates our supply zone.

185

So the idea is then we are going to sell supply because the market is currently downtrending, creating new lows and new lower highs consistently.

186

So that would be pretty much where we get into a trade from that point onwards.

187

and as we see the market coming down of course we could then just continue selling supply zone

188

so we see again indecision candle the market pulls back to supply

189

that would be another opportunity to sell okay

190

so that's the general idea as to how we focus on a downtrending phase of price action

191

now as we can see coming in from this point we

192

are starting to push to the upside taking a look at the structure we actually pushed over this high

193

so we have a high lower low lower high lower low

194

lower high lower low lower high lower low the market's pushed up

195

and now it's created a higher high

196

so this actually puts us into an uptrend okay meaning what

197

do we want to do in uptrends we want to buy from demand

198

so here's our indecision candle our sideways candle before the impulse

199

last candle before the impulse is what i use for my zones

200

and what we want to do at this point is buy from demand meaning any supply zones

201

that form will be ignored okay you can see

202

that demand zones did form in this move up

203

but we ignored them and focused on selling supply

204

because the market direction was down now

205

that we've shifted up we want to focus on buying demand

206

and we want to ignore supply because the market direction is up and we are moving with the market direction

207

using supply and demand to make our executions.

208

So in one moment, you will see market returns towards this area of demand, and then we get a tap in and a push away into new highs.

209

So that is how we use supply and demand in line with the trend, with a real example there of a downtrend, selling supply, and an uptrend, buying demand.

210

So in order to validate a supply or demand zone, we need to make sure there is something we call an imbalance.

211

If there is no imbalance into a zone, then it's not a zone that we want to look at.

212

If we take a look at where I'm drawing these black lines, we can see just above this candle here, this blue candle, is going to be our supply zone, okay?

213

It's the last candle before this impulse to the downside.

214

Now, we can see what we have beneath the low of that candle, and then above where price currently is, there is an imbalance, right?

215

An imbalance is an open price range.

216

It's this area here.

217

Basically, what it is, is an area that hasn't been filled yet with wicks.

218

If this candle had pushed up and hit

219

that area then this would have created what we call efficiency

220

and removed any imbalance into that zone but

221

because we still have this open price range here that means

222

that there is imbalance into this supply zone

223

so this would be a good supply zone to sell from okay

224

and we would expect

225

when the market comes back to it we could happily sell from this point

226

because that would fill the imbalance

227

and then the market would be likely to move lower now you have to have an imbalance to your supply

228

or demand zone otherwise it's not really valid so

229

if we take a look above we've got here this indecision

230

candle this is the last candle before an impulse to the downside

231

and just to clean it up let's get rid of this we'll get rid of this

232

but the problem with this zone is there is no imbalance into it anymore right

233

so here we have our supply zone we have a push away the market's pulled back filled in balance

234

and pushed down so initially if you were looking at this supply and you wanted to sell it here, that would have been okay.

235

But now that this has already been filled, now that there is no imbalance, this would not be a good supply zone to try and sell the market from.

236

For two reasons.

237

Number one, the market probably isn't going to get there because it's probably going to react from the area with the imbalance.

238

Number two, if it does get there, because the imbalance has already been filled, there's a high likelihood of it actually pushing higher,

239

which means it's low probability and probably isn't going to give you a good trade.

240

So we need to trade from supply or demand zones that still have imbalances, okay?

241

If we look in this leg of price movement, there is no imbalance up here.

242

There's no open price ranges.

243

Every wick is touching previous wicks, right?

244

So we have this wick pushed up, touch this wick.

245

We pull back down.

246

We have these wicks being filled by these wicks, but then we have a push down and we have a gap here where the wick is not meeting the wick.

247

So that is basically going to create our imbalance, making this the high probability point to sell from and to show you that in action.

248

That's the kind of movement we would expect, a fill of the imbalance, and a push to the downside.

249

And a rule that goes alongside that is, of course, that a zone is only really good on its first tap-in, okay?

250

So here we, of course, had the first tap-in at this point.

251

So we created supply, pushed down, pulled back, and then sold off.

252

However, if the market was to come back into this supply zone again, we wouldn't want to trust that for a trade because it's already been hit.

253

And basically, what we're looking for is for the supply zone to absorb all of the new sell orders

254

and drive lower like the one we're currently looking at we

255

have supply the market has pulled back filled imbalance as soon

256

as we hit supply we absorb all the selling orders new sell orders

257

that come into the market we go and make a new low

258

which means this supply zone is pretty much redundant now the

259

actions we would then want to take would be to start

260

looking at you know the next imbalanced supply zones for example maybe like this one

261

but if the market was to return to that supply zone again so

262

if we came up to here we definitely wouldn't want to

263

look for another sell okay the more times a supply zone is hit even

264

if it doesn't break the first time the more likely it is

265

that soon it's going to break through and actually go the other way

266

so let's take a look what happens next not 100 sure on this one

267

but we can definitely take a look at that we can see that if the market comes up to this level

268

we don't want to sell there again

269

because there is a high likelihood as you can see there

270

that the market's going to go through it

271

so although we had this supply zone prepped up we had the first trade

272

which would have been a great trade

273

but then the second tap we don't want to sell here

274

this is not likely to get us into new lows as you can see it didn't do

275

that third tap we don't want to sell there fourth tap we don't want to sell there

276

and then on the fifth tap it actually breaks through

277

so a supply zone is only really good for its first retest right after

278

that ignore it and the Same goes for demand.

279

If we're in a buying example, of course, we only want to use the first tap of a demand zone.

280

Then we move on to other zones to validate next trades because the more times that demand zone is remet, it's essentially showing us that the buying pressure is not strong in here anymore.

281

And it's showing us sellers are really attempting to push this lower and eventually they will likely win.

282

So crucial tips to remember when trading supply and demand, always trade it in line with the trend.

283

Only trade imbalanced zones.

284

So any zones that aren't imbalanced are not worth trading.

285

and only trade the first tap of a zone.

286

If a zone has been hit three, four, five times, do not trade it, it will likely break.

287

Okay, now that we've covered all that, I wanna talk about different zones.

288

So we're gonna talk about extreme zones first of all, and then how to approach multiple zones.

289

So this market is downtrending.

290

Okay, we had a break of structure here.

291

The market has created a new lower low at this price point.

292

Say we wanna sell this, how are we gonna select which zone to sell from?

293

First, we can follow the rule of imbalance.

294

We say we want to see imbalances into a supply zone, otherwise there is no reason to take a trade from that point.

295

If we take a look anywhere, pretty much from the top of the movement down to here,

296

we can see there is no remaining imbalanced zones inside of this price move.

297

So every single one of these zones here has been retested by a wick.

298

There is no candle where the wicks to wicks are not meeting each other.

299

Therefore, there is no imbalance.

300

Okay.

301

Now there was some slight imbalance created here, but we see that the market filled that range and retested just here.

302

So all imbalance before this point is filled.

303

There is no imbalance ahead of this level.

304

That's going to lead us to look at this area just here.

305

And in here, there are two areas that we could look at as our trade entry to sell.

306

The first is this one at the top, this indecision candle before this impulsive move down.

307

This is what we call the extreme zone.

308

Now an extreme zone is simply the furthest zone from price in the existing leg of movement.

309

So if there was an imbalance zone up here, being within this leg of movement from the top down to the bottom,

310

the extreme zone would be whichever the furthest one from where price currently is, is up here.

311

However, there isn't any imbalanced areas up here.

312

so the furthest zone from price inside of this existing leg

313

of price action from this point we're at now is going to be this one

314

that we've drawn the red arrow to

315

because this is the final imbalance zone therefore basically

316

if the market gets past this we can expect

317

because there's no real supply anywhere in here

318

that the market has a pretty good likelihood of actually just moving into new highs okay

319

so if we're looking for the highest probability place to sell from

320

we can do

321

that from just here now there is of course a level

322

just beneath as well it's going to be this little bit

323

of indecision before the continued sell-off now it's not really the greatest supply zone

324

and what we still have here is imbalance above

325

which is pretty clear which leads us through to a pretty significant point being

326

that extreme zone so in an example like this we would definitely want to focus on this zone over this zone.

327

However, that's not to say that we have to completely write off any possibility of finding a position from this lower zone.

328

We could still maybe see the market flip.

329

So what we can do inside of any zones

330

when we have a situation where there are multiple zones is we can use what we call a standard confirmation

331

or a confirmation entry.

332

That's going to be a pattern like what you see here, which is basically where we're looking for a lower time frame structural shift

333

and then if the market goes from creating higher highs

334

and higher lows inside of this existing trend for example where

335

we start here create a high higher low higher high

336

if we trend it up like this

337

and then we had a shift in this higher high higher

338

low structure into a lower low here then we would use

339

fractal supply zones to sell again then we could use this

340

area a supply zone inside of the smaller price section here to actually get an execution to take the market down.

341

Okay.

342

So if we approach it this way, basically, if the market confirms a reversal in here, we get a trade.

343

If it doesn't confirm a reversal, so if the market just comes up and goes straight through, then because we waited on that confirmation, we actually don't take a loss.

344

We just don't take any trade at all because it hasn't confirmed.

345

So the extreme zone is the highest probability point to sell from or buy from when it comes to supply and demand.

346

We would be happy in this instance then to place a

347

sell order in the terms of a sell limit at this level.

348

If you're going to be placing sell limits and buy limits, the best place to do that is extreme zones.

349

And if you're going to be approaching the market with confirmation or you're approaching a market that has multiple potential zones,

350

then you're going to want to use confirmation on pretty much all of them except the extreme zone.

351

Now, when we see the market come up into this area.

352

We do however get a confirmation entry

353

and I want to walk you through it now so you can see what it looks like in the real markets.

354

So we're going to remove that for now, the hypothetical sell limit idea, and we'll take a look at this structure that we have right here.

355

We've hit the supply zone just there

356

which gives us what we want to see to have confidence and clarity to start selling.

357

Now the confirmation entry has actually arisen inside of this price action.

358

So if we mark the low to the high to the low, this is going to be our trending structure right now.

359

Okay.

360

We then have basically smaller trending price action like that.

361

This is the kind of trend that we have.

362

Okay.

363

By marking the highs and lows of this bullish movement, we're then basically looking for this to shift bearish to provide us confirmation to sell into this market.

364

Now, as we can see then, our swing lows or our higher lows are going to be pretty much this point here

365

and then a more significant one will be this one here.

366

Now we can see with this bearish candle we've had a closure beneath both of these lows.

367

So what this actually does is allow us to sell into this

368

because we are seeing with the formation of this lower low that we've just got here, we are seeing the market shifting to bearish, to a selling setting.

369

We're seeing it shift to a downtrend which agrees with the high time frame narrative of of course this bearish trend idea.

370

So what we do here by bringing this in is actually use kind of the big picture

371

and then a more refined smaller picture to build a scenario in the market where the high

372

and the low timeframes are in complete agreement.

373

When we have that, we can sell with confidence

374

because now we know the high time frame is telling us the market is bearish.

375

The low time frame has also now agreed and told us the market is bearish.

376

We actually use supply and demand here in a fractal nature.

377

So fractal essentially means the same patterns will form on all different timeframes.

378

They will form in all different scenarios regardless of whether you're looking at the daily, the weekly, regardless of whether you're looking at the high time frame, zoomed out price action or the more refined zoomed in price action.

379

It's all going to work the same.

380

So the big picture trend, which is going to be this one that we're looking at, this is bearish and we have our supply zone which we wanted to sell from.

381

Now the smaller picture trend, which is going to be this one here, has also now shifted bearish.

382

And what it's done in doing so is provide us with a supply zone to sell from, right?

383

Now, the supply zone in question here is the last indecision candle before the impulse away.

384

Very simple stuff.

385

That means we can therefore place our sell limit on this area, target down into the low or wherever we want this to go to.

386

And for this, we don't have to put the stop over this swing high

387

because we have new confirmations inside of this structure.

388

So we can actually put our stop loss over this high, and that's going to provide a very safe trade as well.

389

but this time we have that kind of double confirmation.

390

We've had that shift standard confirmation here, we've sold on this retest here

391

and now we'd be looking for the market to roll over

392

and make a new low given that it's reacted from supply once

393

and then reacted from the second supply providing two supply reactions and as you can see that is exactly what happens.

394

So in a general market scenario you want to focus primarily on the extreme zone

395

which is going to be the last imbalance candle in this leg of price action.

396

For this scenario it's this one here.

397

If there are other zones to focus on such as this one here then the best way to approach these

398

if you want to focus on these zones at all is to go in with the standard confirmation

399

which as you've just seen is actually what we've got going on here.

400

This pattern of shifting from higher highs and higher lows into a lower low

401

and then pulling back and selling from supply can be utilized not only from the extreme zones

402

but from the smaller zones within.

403

If you see this pattern formulating in one of the other

404

zones in a scenario where there are multiple supply zones to choose from then

405

that can give you the confirmation you want in order to get into a trade that is likely to win. But

406

if there is no confirmation such as there wasn't any in

407

this zone then you simply avoid taking the trade meaning in most cases you're going to avoid taking a loss

408

and then you can take your trades comfortably from the extreme zone

409

or if you really want to you can use

410

that confirmation from there anyway and

411

that a lot of the times is going to provide you with a good entry to get in okay

412

but I just want to give you a warning confirmation entries

413

while they are very very strong are not going to happen all of the time

414

if we take a look back at the price action here

415

okay I'll jump it back just to show you at this

416

point our extreme zone was this candle here this indecision candle

417

we had this big push to the downside we have no imbalances above we have no other zones left open.

418

So our extreme zone is the one that we are looking at just here.

419

If you were going to wait for a confirmation from this zone, you would then want to see the market pull in

420

and make a shift in structure like this that would allow you to get into a trade.

421

However, as you will see, and as you may have already seen, there was no confirmation given.

422

In fact, the confirmation for this trade is actually going to be when the market returns all the way to this supply.

423

But this is going to mean you're not able to profit on this entire move down.

424

You're going have to wait for the pullback to get it.

425

So essentially that becomes a missed opportunity.

426

So you can't avoid that from happening.

427

If you focus on extreme zones, as I say, sell and buy limits, most of the time are going to be good from these.

428

It's not always going to work.

429

Sometimes the market will flip on you, but the risk reward you can get from these, you know, if you sold this extreme zone, stop above the zone, target down into, you know, wherever you want it to go.

430

You've got potential 5%, 6%, 7% trades coming in here, which means even if this only won half of the time,

431

you're making a significant profit overall due to the fact that every time you risk $100, you're making $700 in return, right?

432

So they stack up from a risk reward perspective, but that confirmation entry is a really solid way to, number one, double confirm the trades if you really feel like you need it.

433

So, you know, getting in from around this point after this market confirmation has occurred.

434

And number two, you can use this

435

if you're not trading from the extreme zone and if you're looking at a more refined zone as well.

436

So that is kind of how you differentiate between multiple zones.

437

The extreme zone is always the highest probability, the highest reward, the most favorable zone to buy or sell from.

438

But if there are other areas that you might want to look at, just go at it with that confirmation perspective.

439

As long as you wait for

440

that you're going to get what you want you're going to have the confirmation you'll have the confidence

441

and the clarity to get into the trade now just to

442

quickly show you what this looks like from a bullish perspective

443

then we would have instead a demand zone here demand zones

444

retested market pushes up we get a bullish break of structure this time

445

so the market pushes over these lower highs

446

and then pulling back we want to utilize the demand zone the last kind of for the impulse that broke the structure, that's where we're going to be getting into a trade there.

447

You can trade that up to the next highs or beyond if you want to.

448

That is a breakdown of extreme zones, confirmation entries, and how to approach supply and demand zones in real markets where things aren't as clean as theory talk.

449

So hopefully that's valuable.

450

Let's move on.

451

Now, something really cool about supply and demand is that this is a fractal theory.

452

Fractal means that the concept works on pretty much any time frame you want to look at, whether you want to look at the weekly, the daily, the four hour, the five minute, the one minute, it's all the same.

453

So let's take a look at some examples.

454

I bet you couldn't guess what timeframe these three different examples are from.

455

Now, obviously they all look very similar.

456

The market follows price action regardless.

457

These are the monthly, the one week and the one hour.

458

No, I'm just kidding.

459

It's the hourly, the four hour and the one minute timeframe.

460

And I do that to show you

461

that really you are never going to guess what timeframe a supply

462

or demand zone is formed on just by looking at it, which is a great thing because it means whether you're day trading, swing trading, position trading, scalping,

463

these concepts will work regardless of the time frame.

464

So don't worry, you don't have to use a specific time frame to use supply and demand.

465

You can use it anywhere.

466

All right, so one big thing that you should bring into your trading is top down analysis,

467

which is pretty much the idea of using multiple different time frames to work out where the market's going to go.

468

You go from the top down in the weekly and daily to build narratives, and you go to the lower timeframes and actually find setups.

469

Supply and demand can be used in this context and it can be used for two things.

470

First of all it can be used to identify target areas.

471

Second of all it can be used to identify where trades are likely to take place from and lead into.

472

So we're taking a look at an example here on EuroCAD.

473

We're on the weekly time frame.

474

As I've shown you with Fractals it doesn't really matter what kind of time frames you're working on

475

but this is a breakdown as to how you can take advantage of the targets

476

and entries and building narratives on the high time frames using supply and demand.

477

Here on the weekly I've just marked out a supply zone, I've just marked out a demand zone.

478

Because the weekly time frame moves so slowly and it covers so much ground, we're not really looking for massive movements on a time frame like this.

479

What we're looking for is generally to find areas the market could lead into as targets and as trade entries.

480

So if we build this picture, supply and demand, we've now got a clear range as maybe the market could go up to here.

481

If it did, and we got confirmation, we could sell down to here.

482

Or maybe the market could go down to here.

483

And if it did, we would then look for opportunity to buy up to here.

484

And these ranges being weekly ranges are actually pretty big.

485

So if we were to look for a sell from here down to here, we're looking at over 130 pips.

486

That's a pretty big range that you can trade through that will give you some very big trades.

487

And then the run from this zone to this zone is actually 400 pips, which again is a very big range that you can find one very large or multiple smaller trades within.

488

Now, if we then run this market forward, obviously it's lower timeframes where you'll actually be doing the analysis,

489

but you're going to see that we actually do build narratives and ideas here because number one, clear and balanced demand.

490

Well, if the market is showing weakness down to this level, selling here would be a good trade to look for.

491

So that's going to be a position that you could profit from.

492

Number two, when the zone is filled, we know the next likely move for it to make is probably going to be a drive to the upside.

493

So you could start looking for buying opportunities from there, given lower timeframe confirmations.

494

Now let's say we get into the point that we're at right now.

495

We've had again, a break of structure where the markets came and created a higher high.

496

We have our standard confirmation pattern looking like this.

497

and now we would say we're looking for a long position.

498

So what do we do?

499

Well on the weekly we would identify an area of demand like

500

so and then on the lower time frames

501

because we've now got this high time frame narrative of pulling back to here

502

and buying we could look for opportunities to sell from where

503

we are throughout the week using lower time frames daily for our

504

and then when we meet this area we could start looking for opportunities to buy.

505

So if you build your high time frame narratives, all you literally need to do is use very simple ranges and very simple supply and demand.

506

And as you can see by how this market is forming right now, it's going to fit into your analysis and going to give you some very, very good trading opportunities.

507

Number one, in the form of sells down into demand zones or buys up into supply zones, as we saw here.

508

But number two, once the range is outfilled and once these demand zones and supply zones are hit, well, then you've got clear entry opportunities because you understand the probability is

509

that that zone will hold and we will likely lead through towards the next area with the next movement in price action.

510

Weekly timeframes and daily timeframes for building narratives of supply and demand, very strong stuff.

511

Super, super simple and very effective as well.

512

You can start to trade range to range using the supply and demand format.

513

It really simplifies your high timeframe analysis and gives you biases to work with inside of each week.

514

So to lead on and elaborate on one of the concepts we just discussed there.

515

This is the idea of using supply and demand not only for entries, but also for targets.

516

We've gone to a completely polarizing opportunity.

517

We are looking at the two-minute time frame to highlight

518

that supply and demand works the same on every single time frame that you look at, okay?

519

For our setup like this, the opposing move is basically going to be this push down, right?

520

Or in the real example here, we're looking inside of here to find areas of supply.

521

Let's take a look from the low then.

522

Well, we have this one, but this has been hit.

523

This is efficient.

524

There is no reason to look at this anymore.

525

As we know, when the market hits a supply zone or demand zone more than once, it becomes essentially useless, which is also good news, by the way, for forecasting the strength of this trade,

526

because the fact we've gotten back into this supply zone again

527

and traded higher than we did previously and closed higher than we even did

528

when we formed the supply zone tells us this is a strong move.

529

So they can actually be used, multiple retests on supply or demand zones to indicate strength against the zone

530

which allows us to get more clarity for trades like this one but obviously

531

that then is going to write off this supply well then

532

there is no imbalanced supply zone here there's a supply zone here

533

but it was filled with this wick okay

534

and then there is an imbalanced supply here this indecision candle before this impulse down

535

so we're going to follow the same rule we're going to mark out the low to the high of

536

that supply zone and what we are going to do as we've done in these previous examples

537

and as I've showed you we're going to cover the high of the wick of the next candle as well.

538

So that's our supply zone.

539

So now yes we could target the overall high but

540

if the market wanted to slow down inside of this supply

541

or if we wanted the simplest and most probable high probability trade

542

that we can get well then we could go with this as our target

543

which would be a one to five risk reward.

544

the idea then being if we get our fill

545

if the market's going to reverse it is very highly likely

546

at this point to at least get to the supply zone before it reverses

547

and of course a supply zone is the highest probable point for a reversal to take place

548

because this is indication that sellers stepped in here before

549

so there is therefore the kind of forecasted potential

550

that sellers could step in here again when they do

551

that what happens the market goes down so if we want the cleanest possible trades, we can actually use supply and demand to identify the highest probable points to get in,

552

but also the highest probable points for sellers to step in against our trade, or the highest probable points for reversals to take place.

553

And then if we simply trade within that range, from demand to supply, as we are here, you know, there is no imbalance supply anywhere here,

554

there is here, so there's very high likelihood of us getting to this point, but there is also a reasonable likelihood that this is where the market reverses.

555

So by understanding this, We have a clean trading range.

556

We can be in at demand, extreme zone, no imbalances left beneath, high probability entry, and we can be out at supply, extreme zone, high probability reversal,

557

high probability exit, no imbalance beneath this, which creates a very high probable range for us to push through, okay?

558

Now, I'm going to run this.

559

You're going to see what happens when the supply is hit.

560

We get a small push through, good sign to begin with, but then we have this pretty dramatic sell-off, okay?

561

Now, obviously, in some cases, the market is going to drill straight through those zones and take you up towards your targets.

562

But in some of these cases, we are going to get these selling movements, and this can lead us back into new bearish moves.

563

So if you target from demand to supply or from supply to demand, you're basically setting yourself up with the most simplified positions that you can possibly take,

564

and you avoid getting killed

565

when the market does stuff like this reverses on your trade

566

after getting very very close to the target you know

567

if you held this trade all the way up here well

568

you're going to miss out on this entire move now

569

because it's all the way back down to entry but

570

if you just focused on demand to supply trading number one

571

it's very simple it's very easy number two you're going to be out of these trades

572

because the market is highly likely to trade from range to range it's only

573

when new ranges are met

574

that significant reversals can take place making this the most simple way to use supply and demand as targets and entries.

575

So that's pretty much everything you need to know about supply and demand.

576

Now, if you want to get results like these and master supply and demand fast, head to the link in the description and join my trading academy.

577

If you don't want to do that, I have a free course called Seven Steps to Profitable Trades, where I'm going to help you to build systems, simplify your trading, improve your trades, and ultimately find success.

578

There is a link to that at the top of the description as well.

579

And if you don't want to do either of those things, watch this masterclass on market structure.

580

581

and demand and help you to become a masterful trader.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
