📘 Liquidity Sweep Trading Model
READ THIS FIRST:
Before using this model, you must have a clear daily bias.
If you haven’t already, go through the Daily Bias Model document first.
This model is only used after you know which direction you want to trade for the day.
💡 Important:
This model alone can make you profitable.
It’s the highest-probability model in trading and has been the #1 reason most students in
the program have become consistently profitable.
Follow this exactly—please don’t skip steps.
1. Start With Your Daily Bias
The liquidity sweep model is built on context. Without a daily bias, there is no edge.
- If your daily bias is bullish, only look for buys.
- If your daily bias is bearish, only look for sells.
What makes this model high probability is only trading in the direction of the bias after a
liquidity sweep (stop run) has occurred.
2. What Is a Liquidity Sweep?
A liquidity sweep is a stop run—price moves sharply in the opposite direction of your daily
bias, taking out stop loss orders, and then aggressively reverses.
- If bullish: price sweeps lows first, then moves up
- If bearish: price sweeps highs first, then moves down
You're looking for that quick and aggressive reversal—not a slow, choppy retrace.
⚠️Avoid price action that consolidates after the sweep or takes too long to reverse. Skip it.
3. Forget Market Structure
You do not need to analyze market structure. That will only confuse you and cause
hesitation.
What we’re looking for is simple:
- A clear sweep of a prior high/low (liquidity taken)
- A fast, aggressive reversal in the direction of the daily bias
If those two conditions are met—you have a valid setup.
4. Entry Timeframe = Trigger Timeframe
The liquidity sweep must happen on your entry timeframe.
As a general rule: the lower the time frame, the more liquidity sweeps there are but the less
reliable the price action.
No sweep = No trade.
5. Entry After the Sweep
Once the sweep happens against the bias and you see an aggressive shift into the bias
direction, you look to enter.
This is one of the highest-probability setups in all of trading.
🔑 Entry Options:
- Fair Value Gap (FVG) – Great for confirmation. If there are multiple FVGs, then pick the
highest FVG when bearish and the lowest when bullish.
- Order Block (OB) – Look for the last up/down candle before the reversal.
- Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) – Enter at the 0.705% level.
Choose what fits your style and confidence. All are valid.
6. Stop Loss Placement (Non-Negotiable)
Your stop must be at the liquidity sweep high or low.
- Bullish bias → Stop loss goes below the sweep low
- Bearish bias → Stop loss goes above the sweep high
You must put your stop loss at the liquidity sweep high when bearish and at the liquidity
sweep low when bullish. It is pointless to wait for a liquidity sweep if you don't do this!!!
7. Timing Matters
While the sweep can technically happen at any time, your entry must be within a key time
window to maintain the model’s edge.
You’ll learn the exact times to trade in later modules.
Note: Swing traders can avoid this and trade at any time.
8. Timeframe Significance: Not All Sweeps Are Equal
The model works on all timeframes—from scalping to swing trading. But keep this in mind:
- The lower the timeframe, the more sweeps you’ll see… but also the less reliable the price
action.
- The higher the timeframe, the fewer sweeps… but they’re far more reliable
A sweep on the 4H chart carries way more weight than one on the 1-minute.
9. Example Setups
🔼 Bullish Liquidity Sweep Example – XAUUSD (1-Min Chart)
- Daily Bias: Bullish
- Liquidity Sweep: Price runs below previous lows, grabbing stop losses
- Reversal: Sharp and aggressive move upward confirms the sweep
- Entry Zone: OB/FVG after the sweep
- Stop Loss: Just below the sweep low
- Result: High R/R continuation in the bias direction
🔽 Bearish Liquidity Sweep Example – AUDUSD (5-Min Chart)
- Daily Bias: Bearish
- Liquidity Sweep: Price breaks above previous highs, taking out stops
- Reversal: Immediate drop back down confirms the sweep
- Entry Zone: OB/FVG after the sweep
- Stop Loss: Just above the sweep high
- Result: Clean continuation downward, aligned with the bias
10. Recap

✅ Stop loss always at the sweep high/low
✅ Entry must occur during key time windows (unless swing trading)
✅ Ignore market structure—just follow the sweep
✅ This model has made the most students profitable
✅ This is the highest probability model in all of trading
