Lesson 15 of 25

The obvious setup is often the bait

Inducement is the clean, tempting entry placed before the real level, to collect orders and stops.

What you see
  • A textbook setup that appears too easily.
  • Weak, overlapping break candles.
  • No imbalance left behind.
Why it happens
  • Institutions need counterparties.
  • The easiest way to get them is to offer a setup the crowd will take.
How to trade it
  • Ask what is below or above this level.
  • If a deeper untapped level exists, that is the real one.
Journal it: Write down whether your entry was the easy one or the patient one.
