Using LS, BOS, and FVG, how is an entry typically sought?

• A. Wait for retracement into a FVG in the opposite direction of bias to enter
• B. Enter on a retracement into a FVG that aligns with bias
• C. Enter only when an OB is present
• D. Enter after a liquidity sweep alone

Answer: (A)

When you combine LS, BOS, and FVG, you’re reading how order flow creates a pullback opportunity after a directional impulse. A liquidity sweep shows where resting orders are likely being cleared, and a break of structure confirms that the market has committed to a new direction. After that shift, price often retraces into an area where liquidity was skipped—the fair value gap created during the move. Entering on that retracement into the FVG, but in the direction opposite to the immediate pullback (i.e., waiting for the price to dip back into the gap before jumping in with the trend), gives a clean, high-probability entry. The FVG provides a defined zone where banks’ orders and lack of price competition meet, offering a favorable risk level, while the move still runs in the direction established by the BOS. In short: LS and BOS set up the new directional bias, the FVG is the target zone for a retrace, and entering from the retracement into that gap aligns with the ongoing impulse and yields a solid setup.
