IMBALANCE TRADING 101 - What it is, How to Find and Trade the Inefficiency Gaps

How to trade Imbalance aka inefficiency, liquidity voids, fair value gap (FVG) price action
Please watch my short videos on imbalance first so you can easier understand the concept while watching this longer video.

In this video I bring you my own view on imbalances, how I find and use them in my day to day trading. Trading is all about simplicity, you don't need to over complicate it.
Gaps can be used as points of interest such as for take profit and trade entries for your setups.

Imbalances are all over price action on every timeframe and can be used to your advantage easily because the market fills these gaps to balance the market and fill more orders.

Imbalances, inefficacies, liquidity voids, fair value gaps etc are caused by an overload of orders made by institutions that trade millions of dollars per trades. We, as normal trades, can not create such moves. So when you see such explosive candles in price action then that is your signal that the smart money/institutions are in the market pushing the price!

You should trade imbalances only following the market structure's trend, otherwise imbalances will get filled 100% and that can not be used for entries but if the trend is strong, the imbalance will nly get filled lesser than 60% or even lesser, that's why in most cases it should be used as point of interest for take profits areas.

Hope you'll use the imbalance indicator show at the end of the video for learning purposes and not trading blindly.
