Liquidity I - LTA vs HTA
All of these weak areas, unless they continue structure, are seen as targets. We are not going to be trading away from these low resistive areas. The goal is to trade directly into them.
Theory
That is usually where the order flow displacement occurs. This is when either an accumulation or distribution of orders occur. In simple terms, where institutions are transacting in/out of the market.
Now let’s talk about low resistance runs. Here we touch upon the concepts I refer to as high and low traffic. Basically, when aggressive acceleration happens in either direction, it leaves behind this “void.” Everything that builds up towards this void is considered as low resistance, LTA, low traffic area. Once we reach our first PDA, it will switch to high resistance, HTA, high traffic area.

After price expands into an untapped area, which we call a protected low, it creates a liquidity void. This void is then split up in different areas if price doesn’t continue expanding. LTA and HTA. Everything up until your first PDA, in this case bearish confluences, is considered low resistance, LTA.
Once we reach that first bearish PDA, we are in high resistance. In this case our first bearish order block.
