how to go with 

d1 candle direction and targets.

of course it's not 100% but most of the time it works out, which is more than enough.

let's start with liquidity.

about candle fractal.
in mt 4 you have bill williams fractal which uses 5 candles.
3 candle fractal uses only 3 candles.
This goes hand in hand with the Market Maker Profile (Buy and Sell Model).
It is basically the same thing.
Lesson #10 Daily Bias
Hi ITB from Bila1947

I would like to highlight the 3 bar fractal has infused liquidity hunt in itself.

It has to have:

Bearish scenario: 
1. a LH to the left, 
2. HH in between (taking out liquidity of yesterday high), and 
3. a LH to the right
Bullish scenario: 
1. a HL to the left, 
2. LL in between (taking out liquidity of yesterday low), and 
3. a HL to the right
what Bilal had attached was the video showing
what happened to the right of daily candle 1.
what i had shown was a 3 day look back
liquidity purge to the left of the daily candle 1,
also to the right.

took me a while to search for this one.

can watch from 14:45. enjoy.
Here it is in action.
I wont go too into the details, but the biggest takeaway is how a candle is formed and
thus by extension,
why we look to enter a bearish candle above the open and
a bullish candle below the open.
How do you know the candle will be bearish (C<O) or bullish (C>O) ? You don't.

But you have a daily bias.

So if your bias for today is bearish you are expecting the daily candle to have a be red (C<O).
Therefore, you ideally want to get in above the Open in order to short.

So if your bias for today is Bullish you are expecting the daily candle to have a be green (C>O).
Therefore, you ideally want to get in below the Open in order to long.

Please note in ICT it is not distribution but it is the range expansion.

To find out what is distribution watch the below Michael video till the end

Blue box in the picture is distribution towards the end of the day collapsing their short positions for day
trade.
Ending cycle of day trade.
