A trader explains how viewing price action as balance and imbalance zones, rather than traditional patterns, can improve profitability. The key is tracking where large volumes traded and watching for phases of price expansion and fair-value re-anchoring. Aligning chart analysis with money flow shows where capital actually exchanged hands.
Do this experiment at home, guys. I cannot explain how my vision of the market changed and how much this made me profitable. Try to see it as a series of areas of balance and areas of imbalance. Let's say the price action is this one. Instead of seeing it as higher high, higher low, higher high, higher low, and always be following price and always being quote unquote late on the party, you can simply look at where the big volume was traded. When you frame market as a series of price expansion, fair value, price expansion, fair value, you're gonna start looking at the charts like this. It's not just a visual reference. You're not simplifying just price. This is simplified based on the money. This is simplified based on where most money was traded. And that's how you should look at the market at.
