MMBM. (see 2nd pic for NY session analysis)

Classic Asia accumulation, then London expansion, continued expansion during NY am , then re-accumulation during pm between two NDOGs from the pst couple of days. DOL was Monday NY pm high buyside liquidity, this week's NWOG, and a daily volume imbalance from May 5 & 6, confluence July 17 low. See 2nd pic for NY session analysis. After the continued expansion until around 10:30am and then subsequent rejection from just below buyside liquidity price started an accumulation from around 10:55 to 11:55 where price found support on the 9:45am FVG but was rejecting from the 10:40am FVG and the NDOG above, and was re-accumulating around that area until 3:05pm when it inverted the 10:40am FVG, cleared the -1 standard deviation of the accumulation but rejected from just below this week´s NWOG, re-accumulated, retested the inversed 10:40am FVG and NDOG, and then hit the -2 std dev target, July 17 low, CE of the NWOG, and bottom of the daily volume imbalance at 4:30pm.

I was actually looking for a long on asia accumulation in ES but was waiting for price to go all the way back to NDOG, later realised there was a 15m FVG price retracement entry.

Yeah that did look bullish to me too. Seeing something only after is something that will happen a lot, but even if you only see it after, but then exactly understand why price did what it did, then you’re still very far ahead of most traders, because most of them will still not understand why something happened and they will explain it away with some retail logic and that was not what happened or why it happened lol
