🔍 ICT Concept #4: What Is a Liquidity Grab? 💥
If you've ever seen price spike above a recent high… only to drop hard, you've witnessed a liquidity grab — a smart money move designed to trap emotional traders. 🎯
💡 What Happens?
Retail places stop-losses above key highs/lows.
Institutions push price into these zones, triggering stops.
They fill large positions at premium levels… while retail panic buys or sells. 😵
📉 Example:
Price makes a “fake breakout”, takes liquidity from above a swing high, then reverses fast.
🧠 ICT traders anticipate this — we enter in the opposite direction AFTER the grab.

🧠 Learn This Rule:
“Never chase price — let it grab liquidity and return before you act.”
