change in state of delivery is key to any entry model

A change in state of delivery is key to any entry model. Without it, there are no entries. How to identify a change in state of delivery (CISD) in 3 steps: (thread)

1) Liquidity sweep In order for a CISD to be valid, price must sweep highs/lows. In this case, you can see we swept buyside liquidity.

2) Candle closure In this case, CISD is validated on the closure below the series of upclose candles that swept highs. Note: all of these upclose candles are considered one orderblock (orderblocks can be multiple candles).

3) Probing orderflow If price validates a bearish CISD, we can anticipate price to neglect bullish PDAs. As you can see, price sweeps through this bullish FVG only because we changed the state of delivery.

Let it be known that a CISD alone doesn't validate a trade. Use this entry model: • Liquidity sweep • HTF PDA • LTF CISD • SMT
