so what we're going to do in this video

is go through

mitigation and exactly what it is

because

it's basically how the markets need to

move in order

to you know function properly

so let's get straight into it so what is

mitigation well in simple terms

mitigation is a close of current

positions from you know large banks and

institutions

the market makers will return price to

let's say an order block for example to

collect their orders close out of them

orders

you know from current or previous

positions and then stack on

more orders which is why we usually see

price reverse

from these order blocks or why these

order blocks

you know are respected which you can see

on this chart here which we get into

um but price will usually get

manipulated in order to close out their

positions

before reversing price as just mentioned

so below we have a chart of gold

which is showing a great example so what

we're going to do

is go through this chart and

identify where mitigation

takes place so if we just start

from the bottom and just work our way up

from this whole move

as we can see you know we're clearly

trending to the upside

higher highs and higher lows so if we

just start here

we had this move down which was probably

due to you know a bit of news from that

candle

but then saying that we are on gold

which can move you know aggressively

but anyway we have this move down on

this candle we left some you know

imbalance and

you can see price pulled back to half

of this candle before then pushing down

and then what we can see is here we had

this move up now

this isn't considered a break of

structure because

we had this lower low here and then we

can say our

swing point or our lower high would be

somewhere up here

or even this wick okay so we

pulled back but we did not put in a new

lower low

so price did not break this lower low

here

okay so this these highs is not

confirmed as you know a lower high

so we pushed up with this move but it

hasn't

this is not a break of structure because

we didn't get a confirmed lower high

from here

okay so this is not considered an order

block so what you may have is the last

down candle

which would be here but it's not

considered

valid for valid for me because we didn't

break we didn't break this

lower high here okay

so if we just move on you can see we

push up but then we do pull back

then we do break structure that's a

valid breaker structure for me

so i mark it on we can see not with that

candle there but the next candle

actually broke the high okay so

breaker structure

so what does that mean well once we

broke structure we have the last down

candle

which is here so price is likely

to come back it doesn't have to it can

be left unmitigated and then price can

continue

but that just means it is used for a

later date if anything

so what we can see is we broke structure

we put in a new higher higher

which really was up here new higher low

last down candle

before the up move this is a bullish

order block

price came back in and this is a

mitigation okay

so money money came into the market here

you know larger orders

price then came back into that level

mitigated their orders or any

cell positions that they had prior

came back into that area we had a bit of

imbalance in price

that was mitigated basically meaning

filled

and more orders are being you know

entered here from you know large

interests of money

and then you can see price reversed from

that area

so you know this this is not just

happening by luck

you know it's all calculated and

yeah that is a mitigation so if we carry

on

the next valid break of structure would

be here

now again it wasn't with that candle but

the move did start from here because we

pulled back

then we had a quite an impulsive move up

we had a doji here but then we had

another candle momentously breaking

that high there okay so break of

structure

which is that high so prior to this we

had a higher higher

higher low a mitigation of that order

block

higher higher higher low and

we have the exact same thing here so we

have a bearish order block which is the

last down

sorry the bullish order block which is

the last down candle but we can refine

it

as we've learned in previous videos we

can refine it to that candle because

this hasn't actually engulfed the order

block

so that's the candle that we can look at

okay

then we broke structure we had a wick

mitigation

okay so is that is that by chance that

we come back in to fill

you know at least 50 of that order block

or you know

their orders closing out some orders

and then stacking more and then

continuing price

okay so it's just textbook and

you know this is basically how the

markets need to move

so this is just the market makers

manipulating price

you know closing out previous positions

mitigation

any imbalance that was left which you

know is important in some degree but

imbalance isn't always

needed um but yeah moving on

where would be the next valid sort of

point or you know break structure

well as we have you know this is a bit

messy we have wicks on both sides

you know wicks wicks but this is the

most recent higher high

and then we have a higher low here now

bear in mind

in these order blocks and you know these

mitigations we do have

lower time frame entries that we can

take but i'm not going to get into that

in this video

this is just showcasing you know

mitigation and why price is doing this

okay so if we just carry on

this is the most recent higher higher so

where did price break

where it was on this move here okay so

again breakthrough structure

we broke that wick we put in a new

higher high

so if we go back to the very first video

you know supply and demand where is

the consolidation and where is the

expansion

well we have a clear range or a

consolidation here

so you see price is moving sideways

what we can see is we have this move

that's that is moving up

so we can we can sort of disregard this

and then we can look at

moves from you know say here because

this is where price is moving sideways

so we can see a clear demand level

you know this is just building liquidity

and you know price is getting ready to

initiate out

okay so what we have here is a range or

you know our consolidation

price then initiates initiates out which

basically means moving away and breaking

structure

and then we have a mitigation which is

as we've discussed

price comes back in mitigates

fills orders more orders being placed

and then finally the fourth

um what happens next is basically

continuation

okay so where could we mark on our range

well we could look at this but that's

the move that was

was continuing up is sort of from here

so we can take the sort of highest point

and the lowest point of the range

before price moves out now of course we

do have an order block which would be

this little candle

refined to that candle there but in this

example that's quite a small area to be

looking at so what we can do

is take the range from the higher to the

low and then look

for long opportunities within that area

um

on you know the lower time frames so

again price cam comes in to mitigate

rebalance all of these sort of moves

here

you know because we definitely do have

more buyers than sellers

now you could be asking well this is the

last down candle here before you know

some clear momentum

which to some degree is correct

but it hasn't really broken structure

or it isn't a valid break for me because

it's just one candle

and the move has started from here this

is where price initiated out

that broke the high and also another

thing to

look at is look how price came into

into this level here you can see a lot

of momentum

a lot of bearish pressure and you know

there's no

there's no entries on a lower time frame

in this area here

so you know it's better to wait for you

know lower time frame confirmation and

look to see where your actual areas are

where price will you know more than

likely need to mitigate before

continuing and we can see it's here

clear demand and you know that's what

happened

so one thing we can see on the hourly

time frame is

price came in but then closed above

the demand so what this wick basically

means

is he's just breaks of structure on

lower time frames because at one point

price was down here

but then it closed up here so what does

that say on a lower time frame

well that basically means we've got

bullish candles

on a lower time frame that's you know

breaking structure

and one thing to

look at as well if we was to drop down

to a lower time frame which i won't do

but we will have areas

you know on the 15 and 5 on this move

here so what we can see is

we have the exact same thing we can take

so we have the exact same thing as here

so we have the the range

break of structure so this is the same

but it's on a smaller degree

and if we was to drop down to a lower

time frame we could see this we have a

range

on this these candles here initiation

out which broke structure

and mitigation of that area

and then the continuations so we have

entries within entries

um and then you can see what price is

doing now is

you know continuing and this is showing

us you know clear order flow to the

upside

and you know

there's no real saying price won't

continue up

brake structure again um

so you know whether it be this move here

or price will

you know build liquidity range

consolidate

and then initiate out but there's no

saying that we couldn't you know

put in another break of structure and

then see this happen again you know

mitigate rebalance more orders being

placed

looking for them demand areas then order

blocks

and because that's where price is you

know more than likely

going to gravitate to before we do see

continuation

so i thought i'll do this video just to

cover up a few you know questions that i

get on a daily basis about

you know mitigation order flow you know

and things of that nature but i hope

this video helped

and i will be expanding on this video

you know with future we look at

different

different pairs and maybe take you know

a downtrend

um for the next sort of example

um but yeah mitigation um

any questions you have let me know in
