You are definitely making a whole lot of sense here...bit I wanna make one thing clear and that is....for a FVG to be of a higher probability setup ,it needs other confluences like support or resistance before the inefficiency leading to a BOS or COCH was created.... because the only reason why the demand zone works is because of it is also accompanied by a support or resistance level.
Great analysis. For me the difference comes from the asset you're using. In ICT, that last upclose candle that created the bearish FVG is an Order Block. Gold often uses imbalance theory and trades from the order blocks and rarely leaves imbalances before hitting next liquidity targets. Indices do not play as fair and can often tap once, twice, thrice into an fvg and may never fill the imbalance completely or the same day if there is enough volume or news. They are both really a matter of perspective and risk and reward.
Great teaching Sir. I saw this "conventional" way of trading FVG and it really never made much Sense until the explanation you have presented. I figure perhaps Trading FVG will only make sense if it coincide with a SND or SNR swap plus maybe a Liquidity sweep prior the entry. Thankyou Sir
Awesome video. The last statement you made at the end of this video is so important. I would love to see it an entire video expanding upon that last sentiment.
It is me from Myanmar. I just started learning trading and your each and every videos helps me to understand clearly. Thank you very much. God bless you.
Hahahaha Test everything I say in backtesting before trading it live. I drop some good wisdom… but the best way to validate it & trade it successfully is to test it for yourself 😎
I have been using his concepts. I will say have watched all of his 7-steps videos for beginners, watched ~75 - 80 percent of his UA-cam videos repeatedly more than 3 times. I have been smashing it back to back. Even the old videos like a year or two years ago, I had watch most of them repeatedly and during weekends, his videos are my "Netflix". People in his inner circle or academy must be enjoying big time. How I wish, James Edward could give a scholarship into his academy. With his concepts I analyze and send signals to a WhatsApp groups I belong to.
The point is, that an FVG or IMB is not an area of high volume, it is vice versa. The only thing that a so called FVG can do is to turn a previous SnR level - which contains the volume - into the an untested level to trade from - Support becomes Resistance / Resistance becomes support. This is what the FVG traders are trading without knowing it - the volume on the left side of the FVG.
Can you please explain in more detail using the weekly time frame and applying it on a smaller time frames so I can have a better understanding and what is the right time to execute the trades and one is the wrong time to do it.
Take a look at Arjo's concept of a sharp turn. An FVG was created going into that supply zone and and one going the opposite direction afte, FVG in FVG out, a sharp turn. Making it a hugher probability FVG
this is perhaps the best, fairest and clearest discussion of differences in real time with use of FVG vs. more simply "inbalances" (or "market inefficiences") . nicely done. now there are signficant differences in how "the draw on liquidity" is understood and analyzed (the focus on diff times as well as diff market conditions and their effects, i.e. FED speak days, key economic calendar days, etc. etc) then the more generalized approach of Wycoff supply and demand thinking. be great to hear you do similar tutorial , compare and contrast how to think in terms of analyzing for bias prior to taking a trade in the mkts (by that i mean how one implements these analytic tool sets to evaluate the general situation at the opening etc. etc.) -- (i.e. Smart Money Concept approach vs Wycoffian supply and demand approach). in any case, thanks again
I primarily trade order blocks/ imbalances. Do you feel that imbalances/ order blocks are a more guaranteed way of trading? What should you do if only the fair value Gap gets mitigated but the order block/imbalance doesn't get mitigated? Should I wait a month until it gets mitigated to trade off of it? The reason why I asked is because I've seen some imbalances not get mitigated for a long time
Great video bro . I learned the fvg but prefer imbalance yet for one particular asset I use fvg aligned with POI which imcludes round numbers. Thanks for another great video; bless
Imbalance and FVG is the same. It's a 3 candle formation with a gap between first high and third low (for a bullish one) and first low and third high (bearish one). And like every concept in trading not all fair value gaps gonna hold. Sometimes its overlaps with an Order block that's why price get to fill the fair value gap or imbalance before rejecting. We have to take into consideration higher timeframe bias or orderflow if you like and see the bigger picture. 😊
What they do is to go inside the Daily FVG and see if there’s a 15M flip. Then the SL goes below that 15M structure point. So not exactly blindly put a limit order on the FVG regardless of the timeframe. Now if you refine too much down to a 1M or 5M flip, since now the risks are small, entering on the FVG in those TFs can increase your chance of getting in.
The concept of "PDArrays" does address your concerns when you talk about trading the demand and supply zones .. aka .. imbalances ... what would be your take on that ?
It was there in books written a long time ago and supply and demand traders used to trade them as gaps way before and ICT gave it a fancy name. So no… we don’t owe it to ICT
I love your videos because they are simple, and your honest opinion about what you teach is what a lot of other people don't have. Would be nice to have a video on how you deal with profits and taxes, not as a financial advisor, but sort of like a guide you use to help beginners save some money from too much taxation
Absolutely everything I teach on my channel is completely the same for day trading & swing trading It’s all fractal price action, meaning it works just as well on the 1 minute chart as it does on the 1 month and everything in between, unless stated otherwise! 🫶
I think it should be good to enter at the FVG of lower timeframe when the price retrces back to it and place the stop losss below or above the demand or supply zones
Yes, there’s no right or wrong Just for me… and based on the examples I see every day including in this video, the risk reward is waaaay worse from FVG than it is just trading simple supply & demand But as I say, many ways to reach the same outcome, this is what I prefer but FVG is fine if it gives a person an edge 👌🏻
Only God will reward you for helping life also opening my eyes to the market You are a blessing God bless you more and more amen But I'm in a losing streak please do a video on how to control that when it's come🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😭
UA-cam offered this channel. Happy to see. No annoying music or any other noise. Very clean and perfect channel
Your teaching is too clear that even a beginner can easily understand the market
Thanks 👍

With consistent practice, I avoided using fair value gaps since before watching this video. Demand and supply zones are the best to take trade from.
been researching on fvg since 2023 never seen this much interesting video ever
really amazing video
You free vids are the only thing pushing me through the trading
James Edward's Humility humbles me... He's so good at communicating the substance he has. Thanks alot
Which is the best time frame to execute a trade. Am a beginner@JaeFx-c7z
Imbalance+s&d really changed my life thank u ❤😊
Every video adds something valuable. Looking forward to more! 🚀🔥

Hahahaha

I have been there done that. Wait for 45 to 60 minutes before getting into the trade. You will win 😂
Same 😂

You're very humble James, thank you for the video
I appreciate that!
What is the difference beteen a fear value gap and an imbalance plz ! THANK U VERY MUCH FOR U TEACHING! STAY BLESS
wow!!! this was amazing to watch, funny cause i was asking my self tons of questions about this "imbalance" term.. thank you for this
At last! you release this vid. im so confused with FVG and IMB. thanks!
We really appreciate your great support sir.
personally I struggle to pick the respected zone from multiple zones
Please make a video on this
I love your way of teaching and I've learnt a lot from you
Easy to understand thank you so much❤
Really great. An extra ordinary source of base knowledge for profitable trading.❤
i like this example chart 14:27 , great video all in all
JaeFX is the G.O.A.T. I really appreciate your contribution, brother.
This will be one of the best course so far 🎉
Great video. That cleared my concepts. Thanks bud.
Finally!!! Thanks for addressing this. Arjo has been preaching the gospel about FVG's.
What do you mean
@@MoPRZA. Arjo is another UA-camr that uses fvg as his strategy. He's a pretty respected trader but preaches fvg as the Holy Grail.
@@kpnitrl38 yeah I know him I wasn’t sure about if you meant it that way but I got it now

Happy to see a guy who trade the imbalance like me... 😊
Thank you very much, it was very useful and practical.

I'm loving your videos already 👏

My guy I've learned so much just from these videos. I need you to be my teacher
this is the video everyone was waiting for
Thanks a bunch...Always learning new things
Glad to hear it! 👊🏼
Bro! can you make a full video explaining market structure and pull back
Thank you alot sir. I just started few days ago and ur tutorials are amazing so far.
I just want to ask. What time frame will u suggest???
guys, what timeframe is good for technical analysis for crypto?
Fvg goes well with high of the choc or bos if buying or the low if selling
Too insightful and too powerful bro.. 🎓🎓Bravo👌👌👌👌👌
bruh ive been waiting on you to speak on this🙏🏿
@@changwemwenya9701 hope you enjoy ☺️
@@JeaFxForexTrading please consider Live trading sessions on youtube sometimes
Thanks man so clear
Thank you James🙏
You have made everything sir, thank you thank you🎉, we really appreciate and enjoy your teaching sir, long life and prosperity 🙏
Can you make a detailed video about volume? Btw thank you for the teachings 🙏🏻
Both are okay, FVG uses top down analysis which makes it more accurate. If Risk is high go to the lower time frame POI
which broker do you recommend to use in Canada for forex?
The concept of "PDArrays" does address your concerns when you talk about trading the demand and supply zones .. aka .. imbalances ... what would be your take on that ?
Thanks for making Forex trading simple.
I really appreciate your lessons.
Am really improving
@JaeFx-c7z Yes sure to hit the bell icon💣👌
Thank you very much sir!
Imbalance doesnt work 4 me. I trade fvgs while my mentor trades imbalance and we r both profitable so they both work fantastic just gotta practice
You are a real GOAT chief👍 i will appreciate it alot if you can drop a pdf course 😢
Thank you so much this helps
Is it work in 5 min candle and could you suggest me good trading strategies in 5 min for nifty 50
So do You use pending orders or do You wait for reaction? … and thanks for the video 🎉
we all owe Michael Huddlestone (ICT) for FVGs but you describe it much good thanks friend!
It was there in books written a long time ago and supply and demand traders used to trade them as gaps way before and ICT gave it a fancy name. So no… we don’t owe it to ICT
Thanks a lot bro, you just confirmed that for me.
Bro, do you have a fibonachi video . How to properly use them
How about size in small on FVG and size in more when it hits IMB?
I don't think FVG works with ranging market structure.
thank you man for the explenation
Youre the best bro🎉 i would love to make us a topdown analysis videos
Really like your way of explaining and trading! Thnx a lot. Also like your candle colours :D. May I ask what your colours and opacity are :)?
I love your videos because they are simple, and your honest opinion about what you teach is what a lot of other people don't have.

I love this bro ❤, you have good insight and ideas. Truly trading is only profitable and understood when you have good guidance like mines
good job, keep it going.
Thank you brother
best teacher thank you sir
Most welcome
What timeframe do you look for the imbalance sir
Thanks so much.. please what software do you use to screen record?
I just use Mac built in screen record 🫶
@@JeaFxForexTrading thanks sir 💯
What made the fair value gap imbalance
The market acts different when you are in a trade and when your not in a trade it trends
Hello, I saw your video about breakouts and fakeouts. Could that be used for intraday trading. If so what all would be the changes
Absolutely everything I teach on my channel is completely the same for day trading & swing trading
It’s all fractal price action, meaning it works just as well on the 1 minute chart as it does on the 1 month and everything in between, unless stated otherwise! 🫶
what's the difference between Imb and FVG
I think it should be good to enter at the FVG of lower timeframe when the price retrces back to it and place the stop losss below or above the demand or supply zones
At 13:40, would you trail your stops here and move your profit target up?
If we take imb like entry It will be formed an I-FVG and I-FVG work like support price move ?
Awesome video 👌🏼
This was golden
I m beginner . Sir I got concept . But i wa nt practice it much more with trading view software . With this which indicator I should have to use .
Master, is the inbalance zone renought or the we should include the order blocks to set the stops? Many thanks for share
I also noticed that the areas you marked using FVG the trades would've worked
Yes, there’s no right or wrong
Just for me… and based on the examples I see every day including in this video, the risk reward is waaaay worse from FVG than it is just trading simple supply & demand
But as I say, many ways to reach the same outcome, this is what I prefer but FVG is fine if it gives a person an edge 👌🏻
Isn't last red or green candle on turning point is an order block or imbalnace?
You will miss opps by going for the IB instead, but the trade-off is worth it. On LTF you get so many chances, that doesn’t matter anyway.
I'll be back for a good comment when I'm done watching 👍
Thanks jea 🙏.
Only God will reward you for helping life also opening my eyes to the market
You are a blessing God bless you more and more amen
But I'm in a losing streak please do a video on how to control that when it's come🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😭
Thank you 🙏
But jea, while using imb, one still need to trade alongside the market trend right?
@@Johntechacademy1 yes 👍
