← All signalsAfter a sustained bearish displacement from 1.16705 down through multiple session lows (PDL, DL, London LO at 1.15975), price swept the Asian LO and reversed into a Class A bullish displacement. The MSS level sits at 1.16395, with a bull FVG nested between 1.1635–1.16365 formed after the displacement bottom at 1.16335. Two iFVGs (bearish) sit slightly above this structure at 1.1637–1.16375 and 1.1635–1.1636, compressed into the same killzone. The swing sequence shows an ITH at 1.16595, ITL at 1.1631–1.1620, then a minor ITH at 1.1620—characteristic compression before displacement. Asian killzone is now active, and the structure presents with the bull FVG as the primary mitigation level beneath price action; the iFVGs overhead represent trapped bearish orders from the reversal candle. A useful observation: when a Class A displacement forms after a deep liquidity sweep and the FVG nests *below* the MSS rather than above it, the subsequent retest often honors both levels as a confluence zone before further displacement. Price sits precisely at VWAP with all three major EMAs aligned above, establishing a clean uptrend structure across timeframes. RSI reads 59.45—comfortably in the strength zone without overextension—indicating momentum remains present but not yet saturated. MACD line sits marginally above its signal with a small positive histogram, confirming directional conviction without aggressive separation. Volume at 185 represents a 47% lift over the 20-bar average, showing material participation at this level. The ATR reading of near-zero reflects minimal recent volatility, suggesting either a consolidation phase or the precision of price touching VWAP exactly. The convergence of price with VWAP alongside the EMA stack alignment and elevated volume creates a technical backdrop where trend continuation mechanics are visible, though momentum expansion remains modest. Traders observing this setup would note the absence of overbought conditions alongside solid structural alignment.
