▭ FVG▭ iFVG┄ MSS━ OB━ PWH/PWL▣ Swept
MNQ11 3m BULL shows a bullish displacement forming after the Asian high sweep at 31121. Price rallied from the displacement bottom (31097.5) through 31138.75 MSS and into the upper range near 31143.5, creating a bullish FVG (31129.75–31131) on the break of structure. Two iFVGs sit nested beneath: one between 31124.5–31129.25 and another at 31111.25–31122.75, both printed during the initial sweep phase. The setup sits in off-hours session, well above the PWL (30356.5) and consolidating beneath the PWH (31282.75). The swing sequence reads ITH→ITL→ITH (31138.75), with price now probing above the most recent displacement top. A student observing this structure should note how multiple iFVGs within a single displacement often compress liquidity; when price breaks decisively above the upper FVG boundary, it signals commitment through that imbalance, and subsequent retracement into those nested levels can reveal secondary entry geometry or continuation bias depending on order flow at the MSS level.

Traditional TA perspective

VWAP / EMA stack / RSI / MACD / Volume

━ VWAP━ EMA 20━ EMA 50┄ EMA 200·━ RSI(14)━ MACD━ Signal
Price sits 102 points above VWAP with the EMA stack in bullish alignment—20, 50, and 200 all stacked higher in sequence—establishing a clean uptrend structure. RSI at 61.70 reflects strong momentum without overbought compression, while MACD's line trades 0.26 above its signal with positive histogram, confirming directional conviction. ATR at 11.89 points represents typical volatility for the timeframe, neither contracted nor expanded. Volume at 2102 contracts slightly versus the 20-bar average of 1690, printing a 1.24 ratio—average conviction by retail standards. The setup shows momentum aligned with trend and price premium to VWAP, with RSI room to extend and MACD histogram still building. The muted volume print suggests the move is methodical rather than volatile, leaving the posture intact but without aggressive participation at the bar.
