Entryinside 08:30-11:00 America/New_York time, price first sweeps the 20-candle low and closes back above it, then a candle closes above the highest high of the last 10 candles (market-structure shift), then a LATER candle in the same window completes a bullish fair value gap → limit at the 50% level of the sequence's fair value gap, valid until the session window closes (filled at the level, or at the open on a gap)

Differences from the video

Shown on every result

The rules are taught in videos, not in a page that states them as numbers; the lookbacks above (20-candle sweep, 10-candle structure shift) are stated explicitly here and executed as written, and a secondary write-up is cited alongside the channel.

"Previous day's low" as the swept level is approximated by the lowest low of the previous 20 five-minute candles.

Long side only: the mirror short sequence cannot be executed on Spot.

"Next liquidity level" is approximated by a fixed 2R target, because the published rule is a judgement call on the chart.
