Last updated 11 days ago

The X Model in trading is a methodical approach that combines key market behaviors to identify promising trading opportunities.

A prime example is the Market Maker X Model (MMXM), which focuses on analyzing price action, liquidity zones, and shifts in market structure to predict future price movements.

Key Components

Previous Daily High/Low Run

Determines if the previous day's high or low has been broken, signaling potential shifts in market direction.

15-Minute Market Structure Shift

Examines changes in market structure on a 15-minute chart to confirm the trend direction established by the previous day's high/low breakout.

Smart Money Technique (SMT) Confirmation

Utilizes SMT indicators to verify the market structure shift, ensuring alignment with institutional trading patterns.

1-Hour Fair Value Gap (FVG)

Focuses on finding an optimal entry point by targeting the 1-hour Fair Value Gap, especially around the 50% level of the previous day's price range.

The X Model emphasizes the importance of understanding liquidity dynamics and price behavior to refine trading decisions.

Many traders use tools such as the MMXM Indicator on MetaTrader platforms to automate the identification of these key zones and signals, streamlining their trading strategies.
