How to Trade Liquidity Sweeps into Order Blocks with CISD

Setup in 3 lines:

- 1H bias + POI + liquidity sweep = direction

- 15min CISD at Order Block = confirmation

- Displacement upward = entry

Hi @godswill, please what is the concept behind CISD?

Trade triggered, let's see how it goes

Here's how far our trade is going

Nice one but still dont understand what CISD is about, maybe its your secret formula 😂

Change in state of delivery.

It's similar to Change in market direction.

Hey traders,

I took a buy on AUDNZD and here’s exactly why

- The daily chart was bullish. Price had been making higher highs and higher lows overall.

- Instead of continuing straight up, price retraced (pulled back) and landed perfectly inside a daily Order Block

What is an Order Block?

It’s a zone where strong buyers (institutions/smart money) previously placed big orders. When price returns to this zone, it often acts like a floor (support) because there’s leftover buying interest there.

So on the daily chart: bullish trend + retracement into demand zone = higher probability area for a bounce.

While price was sitting inside that daily order block, on the 1-hour chart we saw a sweep

What is a sweep?

Price quickly dipped below a recent low (or equal lows), took out stop-loss orders from traders who went short, and then reversed strongly upward. This is classic liquidity grab , smart money sweeping weak hands before the real move.

After the sweep, buyers stepped in.

I dropped to the 15-minute chart for precision and saw two confirming things:

- Another sweep on the 15m (price wicked below the recent lows, cleared stops, then reversed).

- Change in State of Delivery (CSD), price broke a previous high on the 15m, showing the short-term structure had flipped from bearish to bullish.

This gave me a clean confluence:

- Daily bullish bias

- Daily Order Block support

- 1H sweep (liquidity taken)

- 15m sweep + structure shift

That’s when I entered buy immediately.
