Technical Analysis
Eleven free lessons on reading a chart before you ever look for a trade, structure, liquidity, sweeps, gaps, candles, and timeframes. Each article is a full lesson with examples and mistakes, not a glossary line.
How to read this category
Technical analysis here means one skill: looking at price and being able to say what already happened. Not a prediction. Not an indicator recipe. A chart prints candles. Those candles make highs and lows. The sequence of those points is structure. Stops cluster beyond the obvious points, that is liquidity. When price runs those stops and fails to hold, that is a sweep. When it closes beyond and holds, that is a break of structure. The rest of the category is vocabulary for the same job.
Read in this order if you are new: What is technical analysis?, Candlesticks, Highs and lows, Market structure, then Liquidity and Liquidity sweeps. Open US30 (or the index you actually trade) and find one example of each idea before you skip to Fair Value Gaps. A gap without a map is just a hole in the candles.
These lessons are free on purpose. They are the public language of the Academy. They will not teach you the Stage 4 execution framework. They will make the Academy’s language make sense when you get there.
