A very-short YouTube micro-tutorial by Jesse Rogers that lists and briefly defines five core trading concepts (swing points, trend structure, fair value gaps, engulfing candles, and liquidity sweeps) intended as foundational primitives for understanding market movement.
The five most important trading concepts in 50 seconds 1. Swing points when the middle candle is higher than the candle to its left and its right. This is a swing high and vice versa for a swing low. Number two A trend Lower Highs and lows are a bearish market and show a downtrend. Higher Highs and higher lows are a bullish market and show an uptrend. 3. Fair value gaps when the market moves so quickly that a candle leaves a gap between the wick of the candle before it and the candle after it, you can use these levels to enter a trade for an engulfing candle. When a candle's body completely covers the previous candle's body, this shows a shift in the market. 5. A liquidity sweep when price takes out a high or a low and immediately reverses, this traps traders on the wrong side and you can expect an explosive move in the opposite direction. If you master these five concepts, you'll understand everything you need to know about how the markets move. Comment below which ones you use the most.
