STABLE/USDT, here is an analysis applying The 3 Candle Model (Candle 1 = Range, Candle 2 = OB + Break + OTE, Candle 3 = KOD).
The charts show a clear sell-side liquidity grab (price spiked to 0.04185) followed by a strong rejection and breakdown.
Applying the Model to the 1H/4H Structure
Candle 1: Range
· Identification: Before the move down, price was consolidating between roughly 0.033–0.038.
· Role: This was the equilibrium zone where institutions likely accumulated positions. The range high is 0.04185 (the obvious liquidity level).
Candle 2: OB (Order Block) + Break + OTE (Optimal Trade Entry)
· Break: Price broke below the range low (0.033) aggressively.
· OB: The Order Block is the last bullish candle before the drop. Looking at your 1D/1H data:
· The EMA5 crossed below EMA10 (from 0.0335 → 0.0324).
· The MACD turned negative (MACD: -0.000855, DIF < DEA).
· Implied OB zone: 0.0325 – 0.0338 (where sellers first entered aggressively).
· OTE: The optimal retracement of the breakdown leg (from 0.04185 down to ~0.0305) would be the 0.618–0.705 fib level.
· This retracement zone is roughly 0.0345 – 0.0370.
· Current price (0.03059) is below the OTE – meaning price never came back to retest. This indicates extreme bearish momentum (a "gap" down in liquidity terms).
Candle 3: KOD (Kill Order Block / Kill Other Dealers)
· Current State: The KOD is active but not yet complete.
· Evidence:
· Price is trading below all EMAs (5,10,30) on multiple timeframes.
· Bollinger Bands are widening downward (LB: 0.0209 – 0.0223).
· RSI is extremely low (~4–40 depending on timeframe), showing oversold conditions structurally, not just a dip.
· What KOD requires: A shallow retrace into the OB/OTE zone (0.0345–0.0370) , then a continuation down to take out the low of Candle 2 (~0.02607 or lower).
Specific Trade Setup (Based on your screenshots)
Element Level
HTF POI (High Timeframe Point of Interest) 0.02607 (24H Low) – This is the buy-side liquidity to the downside. Price wants to sweep it.
LTF TS (Low Timeframe Trend Shift) Look for a CISD + MSS (Change in State of Delivery + Market Structure Shift) upward first.
LTF IFVG (Inversion Fair Value Gap) The gap between 0.0324 – 0.0338 (where price fell through without retracing).
Entry: FVG Enter short only after price retraces into the 0.0324–0.0338 IFVG and shows rejection (e.g., a bearish engulfing on 5m/15m).
Target Opposite liquidity = The low at 0.02607 (24H Low). Potential move: ~20% from entry.
Summary of Chart's Current Signal
The 3 Candle Model is in progress. Candle 2 (Breakdown) is complete. We are waiting for Candle 3 (KOD) entry – a retrace into the IFVG/OB zone (0.0324–0.0338) to short down to 0.02607.
Critical warning: The current price (0.03059) is not an entry according to this model. You must wait for the pullback into the order block. If price continues straight down without retracing, the model is invalidated.
