US30 Long Setup | Targeting the Unfilled 4H Gap

🧠 Technical Analysis
🔹 Unfilled Gap (Target Area)
A large 4H imbalance/gap remains unfilled between 41,500–41,600, highlighted in yellow.

This acts as a magnet for price — the market often retraces to fill inefficiencies after structure is built below.

🔹 Breakout and Retest
Price has broken above a consolidation structure and returned to retest the breakout level.

The "Invalidation Zone" (~41,147–41,222) is clearly marked — if price breaks below this area, the long idea is invalidated.

Current candle shows strong bullish follow-through after testing the invalidation area.

🔹 Bullish Market Structure
The overall price action is forming higher highs and higher lows.

The recent impulse move confirms bullish momentum and continuation potential.

🛠 Trade Setup
Bias: Bullish

Entry: ~41,237.50 (current price)

Stop Loss: Below 41,147 (clear invalidation zone)

Target: 41,541.52 (unfilled 4H gap)

Risk:Reward: High (approx. 1:3+)

✅ Why This Trade Makes Sense
Clean structure breakout

Clear imbalance target above

Strong follow-through candle at breakout retest

Logical invalidation level below the range

⚠️ Risk Considerations
Watch for volatility around news events (US data, FOMC, etc.)

A close below the invalidation zone would signal failed breakout

🧭 Trading Plan
If price continues to hold above 41,200 and prints bullish continuation patterns (e.g., bull flags or strong engulfing candles), holding toward the 41,540–41,600 range remains valid.
