Liquidity sweeps: trading the manipulation, not the move

Retail traders cluster their stop losses at obvious levels — equal highs, equal lows, round numbers, swing highs/lows. This creates a predictable pool of pending orders that institutions and large participants can sweep to fill their own positions. On V75, the algorithm-driven nature of the instrument means these sweeps are mechanical and highly consistent. The setup: wait for price to sweep an obvious level, wait for the reversal candle (often a strong engulfing), then enter in the opposite direction.
