The Forex Master Pattern is an alternative form of technical analysis that provides a framework which helps you to find and follow the hidden price pattern that reveals the true intentions of financial markets. This mater pattern is formed by 3 phases, which complete 1 market cycle.

The Phase 1 is the contraction point (or Value). It is defined as simultaneous higher low and lower high.

On Phase 2 we get higher timeframe activation (also called Expansion), which is where price oscillates above and below the average price defined on Phase 1.

On Phase 3 is where we get a sustained deviation from value (the Trend).

How do you trade this?

The basic strategy is very simple. Your higher timeframe provides a stable directional bias. It is important to have a good separation between HTF and LTF, for example 4H and 15M, 4H and 5M or 1H and 1M are good combos.

When your HTF is above value, you buy your LTF below value.

When your HTF is below value, you sell your LTF above value.

Yesterday was a day full of high impact news releases and it would have been wise taking the day off of trading, but look how this framework still allows us to make sense of the market even in a day of supposed panic and uncertainty:

I'm glad to see you're interested in expanding your trading knowledge, gktrader. The Forex Master Pattern method explained by Gauer certainly provides a unique approach to understanding market movements. I don't know where exactly Gauer learned this method, but you might find it in advanced Forex trading books or online courses. It could also be beneficial to review chart patterns and technical analysis as they are the base of such methods. As always, remember to backtest any new strategy before applying it to your live trading. Keep up the good work in seeking out new learning opportunities!
 
would this best be described as an offshoot of ICT?? The orderblocks and mitigations look similar. would be interested to see how this pans out via extensive backtesting and a bit more detail on execution.

This is explained by ICT since the Scout Sniper series in which he already talked about the Market Maker models.

Market maker models start with a draw on liquidity after a range area, they make up to 3 legs and, then, they normally create a break in market strucuture with deep penetration. Afterwards, price will come back and will offer the popular OTE entries and also the 2022 Mentorship ones in many cases.

The main idea resides in the fact that within your structure and internal liquidity you have to find your setups. It fosters the idea of creating setups in HTF from their internal liquidity into external liquidity beyond them. What we call the markup or mardown expansions.

These HTF areas will be used to refine your entries in LTF ones, where you will have very high probabilty shots till the equilibrium levels in your reference ranges and, in other occassions much beyond it, when reaching external liquidity.

Michael does not use trendlines anyways. We see them as DOL levels (draw on liquidity), we do not trust them. With market structure you have more than enough and it tells you the direction of price instantly, for next minute, day, month or year.
