Introduction to Market Structure.
Welcome to Mentorship 1.0 In this session, we’re focusing on the foundation of trading success —
Market Structure.
Understanding market structure is key to identifying trends, entering with confidence, and avoiding
losses. It shows how price moves through highs and lows to form patterns.
There are three main types of market structure:
1. Bullish Structure – Price making higher highs and higher lows.
2. Bearish Structure – Price making lower lows and lower highs.
3. Consolidation – Price moving sideways between levels.
If you master this, your entries, exits, and overall analysis will improve drastically.
Bullish and Bearish Market Structures
Bullish Market Structure
In a bullish market:
• Each high is higher than the previous high
• Each low is higher than the previous low
This shows buyers are in control, pushing price upward.
Pattern:
HH → HL → HH (Higher High → Higher Low → Higher High)
Tips: • Look for buy setups at HL (pullbacks)
• Wait for Break of Structure (BOS) to confirm trend
Bearish Market Structure
In a bearish market:
• Each low is lower than the previous low
• Each high is lower than the previous high
This indicates sellers are dominating, driving price down.
Pattern:
LL → LH → LL (Lower Low → Lower High → Lower Low)
Tips: • Look for sell setups at LH (pullbacks)
• Confirm with a BOS before entering
Consolidation & Key Notes
Consolidation (Sideways Market)
In consolidation:
• Price moves sideways, trapped between resistance and support
• There’s no clear direction
• It often leads to fakeouts and indecision
Avoid trend trading during consolidation.
Instead, wait for a strong breakout to determine the next direction.
Impulse & Correction — The Core of Price Action.
Welcome back, traders! In this session, we focus on how price moves — through impulses and
corrections.
What is an Impulse?
A strong, fast move in one direction (up or down). It shows clear momentum and trend
strength.
What is a Correction?
A smaller, slower move in the opposite direction during a trend. It’s not a reversal — just a
pause or pullback.
Why It Matters
Recognizing impulses and corrections helps:
• Time entries better
• Avoid chasing trades
• Predict where price may react next
Think of this:
1. Market drops fast → impulse
2. Rises slowly → correction
3. Drops again → next impulse
Reading Higher Timeframes Like a Pro.
Looking at weekly and monthly charts gives clarity Market broke structure to the downside
• Created new lows with strong impulses
• Key highs/lows
Weekly Chart
• After a big drop, price pulls back = correction
• Forms a lower high, then drops again
• Move looks bullish short-term, but it’s part of a bigger bearish trend
How to Catch Moves During Correction.
Zooming into Daily
To trade effectively:
1. Mark Points of Interest (POI) using rectangles
2. Use Fibonacci retracement (50%-79%) to spot imbalance zones
3. Look for a pullback to form a higher low = short-term buy
Daily Chart
• Mark highs/lows
• Target weekly POI
• Short-term buys, but expect long-term sells from that level
Banks often step in at weekly POIs causing sharp drops.
Summary Tips
• Plan on higher timeframes
• Enter on lower ones
• Practice live — structure is everything
What is the Fibonacci Tool in Forex?
The Fibonacci retracement tool is a powerful indicator used by traders to find potential reversal
or retracement zones in the market.
What Does It Do?
It helps us:
• Measure how far the price may pull back before continuing the trend
• Identify zones where buyers or sellers might take action
How It Works
The tool is drawn from:
• Low to High → when the market is moving up (for buying)
• High to Low → when the market is moving down (for selling)
It automatically shows key levels like:
• 0% (start of the move)
• 50% (fair value)
• 61.8%, 79%, and 100% — retracement zones
Key Concept
In your unique approach:
• 50% = Fair Value
• Above 50% = Premium Area → Good for Selling
• Below 50% = Discount Area → Good for Buying
“Buy low in the discount zone, sell high in the premium zone.”
Understanding Imbalance in Price Action.
Welcome to the fourth part of our series! Today’s concept is simple but powerful: Imbalance in
the market.
The Basic Rule of Trading
“For every buy, there must be a sell.”
Whether you’re trading currencies, stocks, or commodities — every transaction has two sides.
Understanding this helps you see the true market dynamic.
What is Imbalance?
Imbalance occurs when buyers or sellers overpower the other side, causing price to move
quickly in one direction — without much resistance.
Example (Bullish Imbalance):
• Price shoots up with strong candles
• A gap or “space” is left between a wick of the first candle and the wick of the third
• This area is called imbalance — it signals aggressive buying
Example (Bearish Imbalance):
• Price drops suddenly
• Similar wick gap forms in opposite direction
• Indicates sellers are dominating the move
Imbalance zones often get filled later as the market “corrects” itself.
How to Spot Imbalances on Chart.
1. Look for strong directional candles
2. Find the first candle’s wick and the third candle’s wick
3. The space between them is the imbalance
4. Use rectangular boxes to mark them
5. Wait for price to return and react to these areas
Price usually returns to imbalance zones to “fill” them before the next big move.
These zones become stronger when aligned with supply & demand.
Understanding Supply and Demand Zones.
In trading, the market moves because of buyers (demand) and sellers (supply). To trade like
professionals, we need to understand where big players (banks, institutions) place their buy
and sell orders. These areas are called Supply and Demand Zones.
What is a Supply Zone?
A Supply Zone is an area on the chart where a lot of selling pressure is expected. It’s where
institutions or big traders have sold in the past — and they may sell again.
Think of it like this:
When price enters a supply zone, sellers become active, and price usually drops from that area.
Features of a Supply Zone:
• Found above current price
• Sharp drop in price from the zone
• Often created after a strong push down
• Traders look to sell here
What is a Demand Zone?
A Demand Zone is an area where buying pressure is expected. It’s where smart money has
previously bought, and they might buy again.
Think of it like this:
When price enters a demand zone, buyers become active, and price tends to rise.
Features of a Demand Zone:
• Found below current price
• Sharp rise in price from the zone
• Created after a strong push up
• Traders look to buy here

Understanding Liquidity in Forex.
Liquidity is one of the most powerful concepts in trading. It helps you understand why price
moves the way it does — not randomly, but with a clear goal: to hunt liquidity.
What is Liquidity?
In simple terms:
Liquidity = Orders waiting in the market (mostly stop losses and pending orders).
Big players (like banks and institutions) look for these zones to:
• Fill their huge trades
• Trap retail traders
• Then reverse the market
Where Is Liquidity Found?
Liquidity is usually hiding:
• Above resistance ➝ Buy-side liquidity (stop-losses of sellers)
• Below support ➝ Sell-side liquidity (stop-losses of buyers)
But it also hides in common chart patterns that many traders trust — and that’s exactly why
smart money targets them.
Types of Liquidity Patterns:
1. Double Bottom Liquidity (Sell-side).
Many retail traders believe a double bottom is a strong support — so they go long (buy) with
stop losses just below.
Smart Money sees this as a liquidity pool.
They push price below the double bottom, grab liquidity, and then reverse upwards.
Tip: Wait for the sweep of the double bottom, then look for confirmation to buy.
2. Double Top Liquidity (Buy-side).
Retail traders often think double top = resistance, so they short (sell) and place stop losses
above it.
3. Trendline Liquidity.
Trendlines are another trap for retail traders. They trust trendlines too much — and place
trades or stops around them.
There are two types:
Bullish Trendline Liquidity:
• In uptrend, traders place buys along the trendline
• Stop losses are below the trendline
Price often breaks below trendline to grab those stop losses, then moves up again.
Bearish Trendline Liquidity:
• In downtrend, traders sell at the trendline
• Stop losses are above
Price breaks above the trendline, grabs liquidity, then drops.
Pro Tip: Trendline breaks are not always reversals — they’re often liquidity
sweeps.

Introduction – Mentorship 2.0
Welcome to Mentorship 2.0 of FX Jers Academy.
If you’ve completed the 1.0 Mentorship, you’ve already built a strong foundation
in price action and market basics. Now, it’s time to take your trading mindset and
skills to the next level.
Each topic in this e-book is directly taken from our video lessons, simplified for
quick learning and backed with chart examples so you can apply it instantly to
your trades.
Remember: This is not just about trading setups — it’s about developing the
patience, mindset, and clarity needed to become a consistently profitable trader.
Let’s begin your journey into the smart money world — where precision, timing,
and understanding price behavior will set you apart from the crowd.
1. Uptrend (Bullish Structure)
In an uptrend, the market forms higher highs and higher lows, creating demand
zones where buyers step in.
Before entering, we wait for a break of structure to the upside to confirm bullish
momentum.
In the diagram:
• Demand zones are marked where price reacted.
• Breaks of structure show bullish continuation.
• Buy entries are circled at demand zones.
• Potential short-term sells are marked at highs before price returns to demand.
This structure shows how buyers control the market in an uptrend.
2. Downtrend (Bearish Structure)
In a downtrend, the market forms lower highs and lower lows, creating supply
zones where sellers take control.
We wait for a break of structure to the downside before selling.
In the diagram:
• Supply zones are marked where price dropped.
• Breaks of structure confirm bearish momentum.
• Sell entries are circled at lower highs.
• Potential buys are shown at lows before price returns to supply.
This helps identify ideal sell setups in a bearish market.
3. Consolidation & Liquidity (Buy & Sell Example)
In consolidation, price moves in a range without breaking structure up or down. It
forms equal highs and lows, creating liquidity pools.
Buy Example:
Price sweeps sell-side liquidity (equal lows), then targets the upside. We wait for a
reaction at demand before buying.
Sell Example:
Price grabs buy-side liquidity (equal highs), then targets the downside. We wait
for confirmation, then sell targeting sell-side liquidity.
Traders often get trapped in these zones. The key is to wait for breakout and
confirmation before trading.
Chapter 2: Trading with Imbalances – Entry with Confirmation
In the previous e-book, we discussed what imbalances (FVGs) are and why they
act as magnetic zones where price tends to return.
Now, in this lesson, we’ll focus on how to take high-probability entries using
imbalances — the smart way.
But remember:
We never enter blindly.
Every trade needs clear confirmation.
Buying Scenario – Entry from Imbalance.
When price moves aggressively upward, it often leaves an imbalance (a gap
between candles). Later, price returns to that imbalance to fill the gap before
continuing its upward move.
Your Entry Confirmation Checklist:
1. Mark the imbalance zone.
2. Wait for price to tap into the zone.
3. On a lower time frame, wait for a break of structure (BOS).
4. Identify the final demand zone after the BOS.
5. Enter from this refined zone and target the recent high.
Selling Scenario – Entry from Imbalance.
When price drops aggressively, it creates a bearish imbalance. Price often retraces
back to this imbalance before continuing down.
Your Entry Confirmation Checklist:
1. Mark the imbalance zone.
2. Wait for price to tap into the zone.
3. Drop to a lower time frame and look for a break of structure (BOS) to the
downside.
4. Identify the supply zone after the BOS.
5. Enter from this refined zone and target the previous lows.
This chapter shows how imbalances + confirmations = precision entries.
By practicing this structure — mark → tap → BOS → refine → enter — you’ll
remove guessing and trade with real clarity.

Chapter 3: Understanding Timeframes in Forex.
Choosing the right timeframes is the key to planning your trades with precision.
Timeframes help you understand the bigger picture, spot clean zones, and choose
the best entries without confusion.
Let’s break it down into two styles of trading: Swing Trading and Intraday Trading.
1. Swing Trading Timeframe Structure
Swing trading is all about holding trades for several days or even weeks. It
requires a bigger picture view and strong patience.
Use these timeframes:
• Analysis: Daily and Weekly
→ For trend direction, major supply/demand zones, and overall structure.
• Entry: 4H or 1H
→ For refined entry points, confirmation, and smaller risk.
This method helps you catch larger moves with high accuracy, especially when
combined with imbalance or liquidity concepts.
2. Intraday Trading Timeframe Structure
Intraday trading focuses on trades that are opened and closed within the same
day. It requires faster decisions and sharper entries.
Use these timeframes:
• Analysis: 4H and 1H
→ For short-term structure and identifying key zones.
• Entry: 30M or 15M
→ For pinpointing entries with confirmation and precision.
This method is great for traders who want quick profits and are able to monitor
the market actively.
Understanding Normal Supply & Demand Zones
Supply and Demand (S&D) zones are key areas where big players enter the
market — either to buy (demand) or sell (supply). These zones represent the
footprints of smart money.
• Demand Zone: An area where buyers enter and push price up.
• Supply Zone: An area where sellers step in and push price down.
These zones are identified when price makes a strong move away from a certain
level, leaving behind a clear base or consolidation before the move.
Key Signs of a Valid Zone:
• Strong push away from the level (aggressive candles)
• Small base before the move
• Clean structure (not in the middle of a messy range).
Entry Module 1: How to Enter Using S&D Zones
Once a valid S&D zone is identified, here’s the entry process:
Entry Steps:
1. Mark the zone on timeframes (30m/15m)
2. Wait for price to return to that zone.
3. Wait for price to return to that zone then take entry
Note- Confirmations not necessary in normal s&d zones
Understanding Confirmation-Based S&D Zones
Unlike normal S&D zones that are traded directly after a strong move,
confirmation zones require the market to return and react before we take a trade.
These zones are more refined and only become valid after price confirms them
by:
• Returning to the zone
• Showing rejection
• Breaking structure on a lower time frame
This approach gives us extra safety because we’re not predicting — we’re reacting
to the market’s behavior.
Entry module 2 Steps to Trade Confirmation S&D Zones:
1. Mark a potential S&D zone on the higher time frame.
2. Wait for price to return to the zone.
3. Drop to the lower time frame (15M/5M).
4. Look for a reaction (wick rejection, slowdown).
5. Wait for a Break of Structure (BOS) in your direction.
6. Mark a refined zone after the BOS inside the reaction.
7. Enter on the refined zone and target the next structure level.
Key Difference:
• Normal S&D: Trade from the zone directly.
• Confirmation S&D: Wait for price to confirm the zone with BOS and reaction
first.
Entry Module 3: Aggressive Entries on S&D Zones.
Understanding Aggressive S&D Zones
Aggressive S&D zones are used in less clean or high-risk conditions where quick
decision-making is required.
These zones may not always follow the ideal clean structure, but they are still
actionable based on momentum, volatility, or urgency.
Aggressive Entries are Applicable When:
• The zone has already been mitigated once
• Price is in a messy range, not giving clear structure
• During high-impact news events, where price moves rapidly
• Market is moving fast and there’s no time to wait for confirmation.
Steps for Aggressive Entries:
1. Identify the S&D zone on your chart (even if it’s messy or previously touched).
2. Wait for price to approach the zone quickly or impulsively.
3. Enter immediately on touch, based on previous reaction or imbalance.
4. Keep a tight SL, just beyond the zone.
5. Target the nearest structure or liquidity level.
6. Use secret tools like ganbox,fibonnaci retracement.
Important Notes:
• These entries are higher risk but often come with higher reward.
• Best suited for experienced traders who can manage trades quickly.
• Not every aggressive zone will work — it requires market awareness and
confidence.
Use this entry method only when structure is not clean, or you’re trading
momentum moves or news spikes.
Understanding Counter S&D Zones
Counter S&D zones are used to trade against the current trend — meaning you’re
entering buys in a downtrend or sells in an uptrend.
These zones are usually temporary reversal zones, where price reacts sharply
before continuing the main trend.
They are not long-term reversal points, but they offer high R:R scalping setups if
timed correctly.
When to Use Counter Zones:
• After an aggressive move with imbalance or liquidity sweep
• When price taps into a higher time frame zone
• When a lower time frame BOS occurs against the current trend
• To catch a pullback before the trend resumes
These trades require extra confirmation since you are trading against momentum.
Entry Module 4: Counter Zone Entry Steps
Countertrend Entry Flow:
1. Identify the main trend direction first.
2. Spot a strong opposite zone on a higher time frame (e.g., 1H or 4H).
3. Wait for liquidity sweep or imbalance tap in that area.
4. Drop to a lower time frame and wait for a BOS against the trend.
5. Mark the refined S&D zone after BOS and enter from there.
6. Target short pullbacks — don’t hold for long runs.
Entry Module 1. Liquidity Concepts and How to Take Entries.
Liquidity is where most traders place their stop losses — often seen around
double tops, double bottoms, and trendlines. These areas become targets for
smart money before price moves in the actual direction.
1. Normal Liquidity
These are obvious retail zones — clean highs/lows that attract stops.
• Bullish Example:
Price breaks below a double bottom, grabs liquidity, then moves up.
• Bearish Example:
Price breaks above a double top, grabs liquidity, then drops.
How to Take Entry on Normal Liquidity:
1. Wait for liquidity to be taken (stop hunt).
2. Look for a Break of Structure (BOS) in the opposite direction.
3. Enter on the pullback with a tight stop.
Note - No confirmations needed in 1st entry module
Entry Module 2: Liquidity Pools
Liquidity pools are zones where large numbers of stop losses or pending orders
build up — usually around equal highs/lows, trendlines, or session highs/lows.
These areas act like magnets for smart money, leading to sharp moves after the
grab.
Bullish Example:
Price slowly drops toward equal lows or a bearish trendline. It breaks below, grabs
liquidity, then shows a Break of Structure (BOS) to the upside — confirming a
reversal.
Bearish Example:
Price climbs toward equal highs or a bullish trendline. It breaks above, grabs
liquidity, then forms a Break of Structure (BOS) to the downside — signaling a
bearish move.
How to Take Entry on Liquidity Pools:
1. Identify liquidity zones — equal highs/lows, trendlines, or session levels.
2. Wait for price to break the liquidity area.
3. Look for BOS in the opposite direction of the grab:
• BOS up → bullish entry after sell-side liquidity is taken.
• BOS down → bearish entry after buy-side liquidity is taken.
4. Enter on the pullback, with SL beyond the liquidity grab.
Entry Module 3: Trendline Liquidity
Trendline liquidity is created when price respects a trendline multiple times —
causing retail traders to trust it and place entries or stops around it. These zones
become major liquidity targets for smart money before real market direction
begins.
What the Diagram Shows:
1. Bullish Example (Right Side):
• Price respects a bearish trendline multiple times.
• Each touch adds more buy-side liquidity above it.
• Smart money breaks above the trendline (grabbing stops).
• Enters Supply Zone, causes BOS down → market drops.
• Final reaction at Demand Zone after sweeping sell-side liquidity.
• Clean bullish reversal starts after BOS to upside.
2. Bearish Example (Left Side):
• Price follows a bullish trendline, building sell-side liquidity.
• Trendline gets broken — liquidity swept.
• BOS confirms reversal.
• Entry taken aggressively after sweep, targeting opposite zone.
How to Take Entry on Trendline Liquidity:
1. Identify a clean trendline with 3+ touches.
2. Wait for price to break the trendline and grab liquidity (fakeout).
3. Look for a quick Break of Structure (BOS) in opposite direction.
4. Enter on the pullback to the zone (Supply/Demand).
5. SL just beyond the liquidity grab — keep risk tight.
Pro Tips:
• Trendline liquidity works best when paired with:
• Supply/Demand Zones
• Imbalance
• Sharp BOS
• News volatility or false breakouts
Understanding GanBox and How It Works
The GanBox is a powerful tool used by smart traders to refine entries inside
Supply & Demand zones. It is mainly used for aggressive entries, helping you
identify the most high-probability entry level within a zone — especially in volatile
markets or during liquidity grabs.
What is the GanBox?
The GanBox is simply a box placed inside a Supply or Demand Zone, splitting the
zone into key levels — typically 25%, 50%, and 75% areas. The 50% level (midline)
is considered the sweet spot for aggressive entries.
Aggressive Entry Using GanBox:
1. Mark your Supply/Demand Zone based on BOS or Liquidity Grab.
2. Draw a GanBox inside the zone.
3. Focus on the 50% level (mid-point of the zone).
4. Enter aggressively if price taps midline or deeper with:
• Sharp rejection
• BOS on lower timeframe
• Wick rejections or engulfing candles
Best Practices:
• Combine GanBox with liquidity sweep + BOS.
• Use lower timeframe confirmation if unsure.
• Keep SL tight — just above/below the full zone.
• Works best when higher timeframe bias is clear.
