[00:01] with Orion Fund and while I was here I was trading and managed to earn more than €5,000 in just one trade. Stay here because I'm going to explain it to you. To take this trade I relied solely on three things: times, some
[00:14] macroeconomic data that had just been released, and liquidity. I set my maximum, in this case of 5 minutes, and I went down to this timeframe because right at that moment some
[00:27] right at that moment some very positive data came out for the dollar. I'll leave it here for you. Look at the green data we had for the CPI in the dollar. Therefore, the euro could fall. Therefore,
[00:40] I waited for the price to reach that liquidity point, and besides, the price had also left me liquidity in the form of a trend line here below these lows. What I waited for was for the price to reach this liquidity point
[00:54] here, this peak, and I moved down to a lower timeframe, in this case to one minute. What you can do here is wait for the price to change its structure, which in this case leaves it here. And then the
[01:11] price, see how it will alleviate this void, this imbalance that leaves us here. You could have posted your entry here to search for sales. And you can place your take profit towards the next liquidity zone, towards the
[01:25] lower lows, or at the lows we have here on the one-hour timeframe. This is what we have here, and you can easily extend it to 1 to 6, or if you don't want to complicate things, just to 1 to 2. And that's the trade I got
[01:41] while I was in Madrid to record a podcast with Orion. Yeah.
