▭ FVG▭ iFVG┄ MSS━ OB━ PWH/PWL▣ Swept

RTY! 1m presents a bull Class A after a sweep of PM Hi at 2928.3. The displacement runs 2932.1–2935.4, with an iFVG (2932.6–2933.2) formed during the initial pullback, now overlaid by a bull FVG (2932.6–2933.7) that sits inside the displacement zone. The MSS level anchors at 2935.2. Swing structure shows ITH at 2933.7, ITL at 2932.1, then a fresh ITH attempt near 2934.2–2934.0, establishing higher ground after liquidity was cleared across Asian Hi, London Hi/Lo, and PM Hi. The setup unfolds during off-hours killzone. The bull bias holds across 15m, 30m, and 60m HTF filters. A student observing this would note the compression of the FVG within the displacement—how tightly price oscillates between 2932–2934 after clearing premium—signals potential for either a re-test of the MSS or a break higher, depending on whether the next sweep seeks additional liquidity above or consolidates within the current range.

Traditional TA perspective

VWAP / EMA stack / RSI / MACD / Volume

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

Price sits 5 points above VWAP with the EMA 20, 50, and 200 stacked in bullish alignment, establishing an uptrend structure. RSI at 62 signals strong momentum without overbought extremes. MACD presents a mixed picture: the line has crossed below its signal line with a negative histogram, suggesting momentum may be cooling despite the uptrend foundation remaining intact. ATR at 0.70 reflects low volatility—typical for this contract—meaning the current price action is moving within a compressed range. Volume at 29 contracts against a 20-bar average of 11 represents a 2.6× expansion, showing conviction behind the bar despite the momentum divergence. The setup shows buyers defending the EMA stack and VWAP, but the MACD crossover hints at a potential consolidation or pullback phase rather than continued acceleration.
