⚡ Impulse Legs — Ride the Move Before the Crowd Does 🧠🚀
⸻
What Is an Impulse Leg?
An Impulse Leg is a strong, one-sided move that breaks structure and creates inefficiency.
It’s where smart money commits and retail gets left behind 🧳
This leg becomes the blueprint for:
✅ Fair Value Gaps
✅ BOS levels
✅ Order Blocks
✅ Future trap zones
⸻
🧲 Why Impulse Legs Matter:
🔹 Show real intent by institutions
🔹 Always create FVGs = sniper entries
🔹 Break structure → define trend direction
🔹 Build internal liquidity on pullback → fuel next move
📌 If you’re not anchored to the last impulse leg, you’re just guessing.

📉 How to Spot a Valid Impulse Leg:
✅ Strong momentum with long-bodied candles
✅ Breaks a major structure (BOS)
✅ Leaves a Fair Value Gap (FVG) or imbalance
✅ Clean directional move (not choppy or indecisive)
⸻
🎯 How to Trade an Impulse Leg:
1. Identify the Leg
• Look for the big move that broke structure
• Mark the full leg from origin to end
2. Mark the FVG & OB Inside the Leg
• FVG = imbalance fill zone
• OB = institutional entry zone
• Look for overlap = high confluence area 🔥
3. Wait for Pullback Into the Leg
• Price returns → tapping FVG or OB
• Internal liquidity builds during pullback
• Reversal reaction confirms re-entry
4. Enter With Structure
• Confirm with wick rejection, delta shift, or volume spike
• SL behind leg origin → Target = external liquidity
⸻
💡 Pro Trick:
📍 After every impulse leg, draw:
• BOS level (top or bottom)
• FVG inside the leg
• Order block (start of the move)
• Liquidity above/below end of leg
This gives you the entire trade framework — all from one clean move 📐
