Setup, swing context, displacement, killzone

▭ FVG▭ iFVG┄ MSS━ OB━ PWH/PWL▣ Swept
A bullish Class A displacement forms after successive sweeps through Asian, PM, and London session lows, with the PDL taken at 31143 in the NYAM_SB killzone. Price traded into a concentrated FVG (31245.5–31251) that sits inside the displacement range (31119.75–31369.75), creating a compressed, high-probability liquidity structure. The swing sequence shows an ITH at 31466, followed by an ITL at the PDL sweep level, then a recovery ITH at 31294 before the displacement impulse to 31616.5—establishing a clear directional bias. Multiple iFVGs above the displacement (31350–31357.5, 31304–31315.5, 31273.75–31290) were created during the initial bearish leg and remain unmitigated. The MSS at 31269.75 anchors the bull bias. A student observing this structure should note how the concentration of liquidity hunts (PDH, Asian Hi, London Hi, PM Hi all swept) before the reversal establishes conviction: premium liquidity is often cleared before directional continuation, and the FVG formation immediately after the final sweep signals institutional accumulation into a defined imbalance.

Traditional TA perspective

VWAP / EMA stack / RSI / MACD / Volume

━ VWAP━ EMA 20━ EMA 50┄ EMA 200·━ RSI(14)━ MACD━ Signal
Price sits 92 points above VWAP with the 20 and 50 EMAs aligned above price, though the 200 EMA positioned higher creates a mixed stack structure. RSI at 67 reflects strong momentum without yet entering overbought territory. MACD line trades above its signal line with a positive histogram of 19.25 points, confirming upside momentum structure. ATR at 52.49 represents elevated volatility context for the timeframe. Volume at the firing bar registers 2.73× the 20-bar average—a material expansion that anchors conviction into the move. The combination of price above VWAP, bullish MACD histogram alignment, and RSI in the upper-momentum zone while volume dramatically exceeds baseline suggests sustained directional pressure, though the mixed EMA stack warrants observation of whether price can establish a cleaner continuation structure above the 200 EMA threshold.
