eBacktesting - Learning: Liquidity GrabseBacktesting - Learning: Liquidity Grabs highlights moments when price pushes just beyond a recent swing high or swing low (where many stops tend to sit) and then quickly returns back inside the level. This behavior is often called a stop run, sweep, or liquidity grab.
Traders study these events because they can reveal:
- Where liquidity is “resting” (obvious highs/lows)
- A quick sweep and rejection (often a wick)
- When a breakout attempt is actually a trap
- A full candle close through the level, followed by an immediate reversal back inside (classic breakout trap)
- Potential areas where price may reverse or accelerate after stops are taken
Use it as a training tool to build pattern recognition and improve your patience around key levels, especially during active sessions where sweeps happen frequently.
These indicators are built to pair perfectly with the eBacktesting extension, where traders can practice these concepts step-by-step. Backtesting concepts visually like this is one of the fastest ways to learn, build confidence, and improve trading performance.
