Description
OverviewThis strategy identifies Equal Highs and Equal Lows - key liquidity zones where stop losses cluster - and enters counter-trend trades when price taps these levels. Based on the smart money concept that institutions sweep liquidity at obvious levels before reversing.How It Works1.Level Detection: Scans the last 30 bars to find the highest high and lowest low2.Equal Level Identification: Counts how many bars have touched within tolerance of these extremes. If 2+ bars touched the same level, it's considered an "Equal High" or "Equal Low"3.Entry Trigger: When price touches an established equal level, the strategy enters a counter-trade (short at equal highs, long at equal lows)4.Exit: Fixed stop loss and take profit in pointsWhy Equal Highs/Lows MatterEqual highs form obvious resistance where retail traders place sell stops aboveEqual lows form obvious support where retail traders place buy stops belowSmart money "sweeps" these levels to trigger stops before reversingThis strategy fades the breakout, anticipating the reversal
