My Best Liquidity Strategy:

1) 4H Liquidity

This is where most people skip and that’s why they get chopped. Higher-timeframe liquidity gives you intent. If you don’t know where the 4H highs and lows are resting, you’re basically guessing. Every real move I’ve caught started with price reaching for 4H liquidity. That’s where size sits.

2) 5-Min Liquidity Sweep

This is the money step. You’re letting price show its hand first. That sweep is stops getting run, late traders getting trapped. I’ve learned the hard way never to enter before this. If the sweep doesn’t happen, I don’t trade. Simple.

3) OTE (Fib Retracement)

Using the fib here is smart because you’re not chasing. After the sweep, price retraces into that 0.62–0.79 zone and that’s where entries feel uncomfortable but pay best. Most of my best trades looked “wrong” at entry.

4) 3RR

This is what keeps you alive. You don’t need to be right often with this structure. Even at 35–40% win rate, you grow. Early on I chased 1:1 and wondered why I was always stressed. Fixed RR changed everything.

If I’d add one thing from experience:

Only take this when session timing aligns. London and NY kill zones make this strategy sing. Outside that, liquidity is fake and spreads eat you.

Overall?

This is a professional setup.

Boring. Repeatable. Profitable. That’s the goal.
