Master Equal Highs and Equal Lows — engineered liquidity targets that smart money uses to fill large orders.

Master price imbalance — gaps between candles showing institutional aggression and areas price must return to fill.
Master Fair Value Gaps (FVG) in Smart Money Concepts. Learn to identify bullish and bearish FVGs, institutional imbalance, entry models, multi-timeframe analysis, and advanced execution strategies with real trading examples.
