▭ FVG▭ iFVG┄ MSS━ OB━ PWH/PWL▣ Swept

A Class A ▼ forms after displacement broke below the MSS at 7681.5, sweeping the ITL at 7657.75 and leaving a series of bear FVGs in its wake. The recent ITH at 7764.75 represents the last bullish structure before the break; price has now printed lower, establishing a new ITL near 7681.5 that aligns with the MSS level itself. The displacement span (7679.5–7703.25) contains three overlapping FVGs: a bull iFVG (7690.75–7694.5), a bear FVG (7689–7692.5), and a fresh bear FVG (7685–7688) formed during the descent. The 7685–7688 FVG sits deepest and most recent, positioned below the MSS and within the lower half of the displacement. Price currently trades in off-hours killzone, where momentum can contract and reversals often initialize. A student watching this structure should observe whether price respects the 7685 FVG floor as support or, conversely, whether a secondary sweep below the MSS triggers liquidity hunts before any directional commitment forms.

Traditional TA perspective

VWAP / EMA stack / RSI / MACD / Volume

━ VWAP━ EMA 20━ EMA 50┄ EMA 200·━ RSI(14)━ MACD━ Signal

Price sits 11.89 points below VWAP with the EMA stack bearishly aligned—20, 50, and 200 all stacked in descending order—confirming a downtrend posture on this timeframe. RSI at 41.57 reflects subdued momentum without oversold extremes, leaving room for further weakness. MACD shows the line trading below signal at –1.27 versus 0.50, with a negative histogram of –1.77, indicating momentum is neither expanding nor contracting sharply. ATR at 8.29 points represents typical volatility for this context. Volume at 3949 contracts sharply against the 20-bar average of 13,137—a ratio of 0.30—suggesting conviction is light and participation thin at this bar. The combination of price below both VWAP and the full EMA stack, paired with weak RSI and below-signal MACD, aligns with downtrend structure, though the muted volume and RSI reading suggest the move lacks aggressive follow-through momentum.
