▭ FVG▭ iFVG┄ MSS━ OB━ PWH/PWL▣ Swept

A Class A bearish displacement forms after London Low swept at 29125.25, establishing a fresh downswing from 29145 to 29075.5. The structure presents a bearish FVG between 29115.25 and 29127.75, nested inside the displacement and carrying into off-hours. An iFVG (29113.75–29117.5) sits just above the MSS level at 29087, marking confluence between internal and external fair value. The London killzone sweep preceded this move, and multiple liquidity pools have now been cleared—PDH, PDL, Asian Hi/Lo, London Hi/Lo, PM Hi/Lo, NDOG, and NWOG. The swing sequence shows ITL at 29105.5 backing up against three recent ITH attempts (29243.5, 29279, 29215), suggesting controlled downside displacement. A student watching this setup should observe how the iFVG nests *within* the larger FVG while respecting the MSS: when external fair value and internal structure align over a major support level, the probability of reversal or consolidation mechanics increases—rather than blind continuation.

VWAP / EMA stack / RSI / MACD / Volume

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

Price closes 72 points below VWAP with the full EMA stack bearish—20, 50, and 200 all overhead and in descending order, confirming downtrend structure. RSI at 36.97 sits in weak territory, reflecting selling pressure without yet reaching oversold extremes. MACD shows the line at −9.76 now above its signal at −11.26 with a positive histogram of 1.50, suggesting early momentum deceleration within the broader downtrend rather than reversal conviction. Volume at 1688 contracts 1.49× the 20-bar average, indicating above-average participation on the move lower. ATR at 28.54 reflects elevated volatility typical of directional expansion. The combination of confirmed downtrend structure, weak momentum without oversold conditions, and MACD line recovery above signal—all with conviction volume—frames an environment where sellers retain control but momentum shows signs of settling.
