Max RR strategy using Market Structure and Flow

This is the simplest sniper strategy, offering maximum risk-to-reward potential. It allows us to capture full swing moves from top to bottom and vice versa. Handle with care.
Max RR strategy using Market Structure and Flow Max RR strategy using Market Structure and Flow

My Rules and Notes:

  • In all the reversal entries we will use the 1-minute timeframe. (Like Sniper Entries)
  • There are two strategies in Market Shift (MS) model. The first is the normal market shift method in 1-minute timeframe and the second is the liquidity sweep wick method in 4H timeframe.
  • I should be active to make decision and fast to calculate the lot size on every new higher low (HL) for example. As there are very few seconds to calculate the lot size or the price will move directly without giving a pullback and I will miss out the trade and Max RR.
  • I should be ready with the RR Tool to calculate the lot size as price is approaching to do a liquidity sweep.
  • Do measure the extra pips for stop-loss buffer according to currency pairs.

What is Max RR Strategy?

In this Max RR Strategy, we aim to catch the full move from top to bottom or vice versa, starting from the beginning of the reversal.

Using Market Structure to figure the Market Shift (MS) and Flow in the direction of the reversal move.

Timeframe for Max RR Strategy

  • 4H timeframe to get the market bias (Trade Direction and for target). Also, using 4H Swing High and Low to capture full move.
  • 1min timeframe to get into sniper entry and use Market Structure concept to get entry on the first Market Shift (MS).

Understanding the logic behind the Max RR Strategy

Here we take multiple calculated risk trades until we catch one biggest RR move trade. Also, we must be patience and monitor (manage) the trade as the running position can take between 1-Day to 1-Week to reach the target.

The best part of this strategy is that we can trade in any major or minor currency pairs, where I can see a big move is still flowing and time it with the strategy to enter for a full reversal.

Understanding the Three Reversal Entry for Max RR Strategy

Note: In all the reversal entries we will use the 1-minute timeframe.

  1. The Zone Entry using the same Supply/Demand marking method. (Use Buy and Sell limit orders.)
  2. Using pattern like doji, hammer, engulf. (Use Buy and Sell market orders.)
  3. Using Market Shift (MS) model. (Use Buy and Sell stop orders.)

Important Note: There are two strategies in Market Shift (MS) model. The first is the normal market shift method in 1-minute timeframe and the second is the liquidity sweep wick method in 4H timeframe.

1st: Market Shift (MS) method

In this 1st normal Market Shift (MS) method, we use the 1-minute timeframe and draw a horizontal line to identify a break with a candle close, confirming the market shift visually.

In a bullish trend, we look for a bearish market shift (MS), and vice versa. For example we mark the higher Low (HL) with a small horizontal line, as price creates new (HL) we move the horizontal line at new (HL).

Once the candle closes with a body below the horizontal line we confirm a bearish market shift (MS) and take the entry.

Steps for Market Shift method: Normal

  • Check the trend and trade in the direction of the trend.
  • Open 4H timeframe, figure out and mark the high or low we are targeting.
  • Confirm the market structure once again and news events.
  • Now shift to the 1min timeframe for the main sniper strategy.
  • Use a small horizontal line to visually confirm the candle close with body for market shift.
  • Once market shift is done, quickly put the RR Tool and calculate the lot size & check the reward.
  • If everything looks satisfying, take the reversal entry and target the 4H high/low according to the direction of the trade.

Important Note: I should be active to make decision and fast to calculate the lot size on every new higher low (HL) for example. As there are very few seconds to calculate the lot size or the price will move directly without giving a pullback and I will miss out the trade and Max RR.

2nd: Market Shift (MS) method

In this 2nd liquidity sweep Market shift (MS) method, we use the concept of liquidity sweep in higher timeframes such as 4Hours.

In this strategy, we need to draw small horizontal line at 4Hours completed candle at high or low according to where we want the liquidity sweep and wait for the price in the next candle to do liquidity sweep and again see price to reverse in the same candle.

As soon as price reverse the horizontal line again, we knew that it is a liquidity sweep and we put on our RR Tool and take entry using (Buy or Sell stop orders).

Here, again we have two strategies but follow any one as I am a beginner. Read the steps below to find out (A and B model).

Note: I should be ready with the RR Tool to calculate the lot size as price is approaching to do a liquidity sweep.

Steps for Market Shift method: Liquidity Sweep (A-Model)

In 4Hours timeframe, we know that market change can totally change the trend for a long time and create multiple swings. Also, we are doing the reversal trade.

Decide: Do we want to trade continuation (In trend direction) or reversal (opposite to trend direction). For this example we will use reversal and assume that market is going bearish and creating multiple 4Hours Bearish BOS. I want to catch the reversal (Bullish side).

  • Open the 4H timeframe and figure out which direction we want to take the trade. Here we are trading the reversal (opposite to trend direction).
  • Mark the Swing high or low accordingly to confirm the our target.
  • Draw a small horizontal line at the completed candle high or low. (Look the image to understand.)
  • In the next 4Hours candle, wait for the price to cross the horizontal line and again cross back the horizontal line in the same candle.
  • Be ready with the RR Tool once is crosses the back the horizontal line, we knew it swept the liquidity.
  • Use (Buy or Sell stop orders) for entry and target latest 4H High or low according to my setup.

Steps for Market Shift method: Liquidity Sweep (B-Model)

In this (B-Model), we should use the same approach as in 4Hours as above and use the marking too. The only thing we should do is as soon as the price breaks the horizontal line in 4Hours, shift to the 1 minute timeframe and use the market shift method for even more RR (Rewards) and the target is the same 4H swing high as in the image above.

Probability Enhancer: The liquidity sweep should be at key Supply Zone or Demand Zone to increase our win rate and works better if this conditions is met.

Note: Do measure the extra pips for stop-loss buffer according to currency pairs.

Best Forex Session to apply Max RR Strategy

We can use this Max RR Strategy during any forex session, but the London and New York sessions are best suited as they tend to have strong directional movement, and news events during these times often help complete the price structure.

Be careful about the news timings or I could get a rule violation on my account. Also, I can remove the target values in the MT5 temporarily during the news events.

Inspiration for creating this Max RR Strategy

I was inspired by Jawaad Hussain Forex (Tradewise) and JeaFx trade approach on how to capture biggest moves. So, I combined knowledge from both of them and developed this Max RR Strategy on my own.

Closing Comments

This strategy can get me into taking bigger unwanted risk per trade. I need to stick to same 1% risk per trade as I am a beginner.

I will do my best to live practice and maintain the journal. There is no need to rush. That’s all.
