I know your mentor might not have told you this, but I will.
The first few minutes of a new trading week shouldn’t be spent looking for entries.
They should be spent understanding the story the market is telling.
Before I risk a single dollar, I ask myself:
• What did the Weekly just tell me?
• What has the Daily confirmed?
• Is H4 in agreement?
• Is H1 simply providing the execution?
Only after those questions are answered do I start looking for an entry.
Most traders do the exact opposite.
They open the charts and immediately start hunting for setups.
That’s why they end up forcing trades.
The entry is the easiest part of the trade.
Building the narrative is where the real edge is.
If you can learn to read the story before looking for the setup, you’ll stop chasing the market and start executing with confidence.
Trade the narrative, not just the candle. 🤝🦅
Happy New Week!
Go And Prosper! 🎉
IF YOU DO NOT HAVE TRADING CAPITAL — HERE ARE 3 THINGS YOU CAN DO TO GENERATE CAPITAL RIGHT NOW:
1. Learn a High-Income Skill (Even With ₦0)
You don’t need money to start, you need focus.
Use free platforms like YouTube and X to learn skills like video editing, copywriting, or content creation.
But don’t just watch, practice immediately.
Edit videos with free apps, rewrite captions, or create content daily.
Then do what most people avoid: work for free at first.
Offer your skill to small traders or creators for a few days just to get experience and results. That becomes your proof.
Once you have results, start charging small and scale from there.
Skill = leverage. And leverage is what brings capital.
2. Offer Signal Services
Start by sharing your setups and trade ideas. You don’t even have to charge immediately, offer it for free at first to build trust and credibility. When people begin to see your consistency, discipline, and results, they’ll naturally be willing to pay for access.
The key here is transparency and consistency. Don’t fake results, don’t overhype, just show up daily and let your work speak for you.
3. The smartest way to make money is by becoming a solution to someone else’s problem.
Money does not move randomly, it moves toward value and problem solvers.
If people are confused about the market, your signals become valuable.
If traders struggle to grow their pages, your editing or content skill becomes valuable.
If beginners lack direction, your experience and guidance become valuable.
So instead of focusing on “I don’t have capital,” shift your mindset to “What problem can I solve right now?”
Because once you become useful, you become valuable… and once you’re valuable, capital starts to flow to you naturally.
Stop waiting for ‘big’ capital before you start.
Use what you have, build around it, and let it grow.
Capital isn’t always the starting point… sometimes it’s what you create along the way.
Every chart has a moment where retail gets baited.
Every chart has a moment where liquidity gets collected.

Detail Explanation Of CRT
Part 10
The image is essentially showing how price behaves inside a candle’s range from Open → High → Low → Close—and how smart money uses Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution to engineer liquidity and deliver the final close.
This is pure CRT structure.
Every candle no matter the timeframe has four key levels:
• Open
• High
• Low
• Close
CRT teaches that price does not move randomly between these levels.
It moves in phases, each with a purpose:
1. Accumulation → Build orders
2. Manipulation → Take liquidity
3. Distribution → Deliver the close
This image visualizes that exact sequence.
Accumulation:
In the image, the first shaded block is labeled ACCUMULATION.
This is where:
• Price stays close to the Open
• Smart money builds positions quietly
• Liquidity pools form above and below the small range
• Retail traders think nothing is happening
This is the Candle 1 behavior slow, controlled, engineered.
The market is preparing fuel for the real move.
Manipulation:
Next, price explodes upward into the area labeled MANIPULATION.
This is the classic CRT liquidity grab:
• Price runs above the Accumulation highs
• Sweeps buy stops
• Creates the Candle High
• Induces breakout traders to enter late
• Smart money offloads positions into that liquidity
This is the Candle 2 expansion the engineered move that creates the wick.
The purpose is NOT to trend
The purpose is to take liquidity.
Distribution:
After the manipulation spike, price reverses aggressively into the shaded DISTRIBUTION zone.
This is where:
• Smart money distributes the positions accumulated earlier
• Price delivers toward the Low of the candle
• The final Close is engineered
This is the Candle 3 delivery the real direction of the candle.
The market is now delivering the true intention of the session.
I only trade from 8:10–9:30am EST.
That’s where CRT gives me the clearest directional bias.
First, I let the market set the CRT High and CRT Low.
Then I watch which side gets swept that’s my bias.
After the sweep, I wait for the inversion and breaker to confirm the real intention.
One window.
One CRT range.
One direction.
One setup.
This is how high-probability opportunities are engineered when this method is executed correctly on NQ.
1. Mark Asian High & Low
2. London sweeps one side
3. Define bias opposite the sweep
4. Wait for NY session
5. Look for displacement + structure shift
6. Enter on pullback
7. Target opposing liquidity
