# Advanced London Sweep Strategy (Step By Step)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LebCEScCkI

[00:00] Hey guys, it's Dmon and welcome back to the channel.
[00:03] In this video, I'm going to be taking you through my exact advanced London sweep strategy that I've been using for the last 3 to 4 years.
[00:08] And in fact, the last month, it did an average of a 75% win rate.
[00:14] Now, many of you understand the basic foundation of what the London sweep is.
[00:16] We simply look for our Asian range to be built up.
[00:18] We look for a sweep on either side of the market and we simply enter.
[00:24] But, what happens when you get two sweeps of the market?
[00:26] That is the issue that most of you are actually running into.
[00:30] Now, the way I've solved this entire issue, it's mechanical, it's simple, and it's step-by-step.
[00:35] And that's exactly what I'm going to be showing you throughout the rest of the video.
[00:38] And if you stick around to the very end, I'm going to give you my exact entry confirmation on how to deal with this problem.
[00:43] So guys, let's get straight into it.
[00:45] Now, before we get into the details of the actual strategy, I just want to give you the actual data to back it.
[00:48] Last month, as you can see, it had a 75% win rate overall, 12 wins, two break evens, four losses, with everything tracked and recorded and even journal to be honest.
[00:59] This is something that I like to do on a
[01:00] weekly basis just to make sure that I'm staying on top of my game with everything.
[01:05] Now, the first thing we've got to understand is what is the idea behind the actual strategy itself.
[01:10] And it really comes down to one single candle, and that is the daily candle over here.
[01:15] Now, essentially, what happens with the daily movement will really dictate what's happening on the lower time frames.
[01:20] So, let's just assume this one over here opened at this price, it closed over here, we had the low of the day at this point, and then we had the high of the day.
[01:30] What would that actually typically look like?
[01:31] Well, of course, if it was an uptrending candle, typically, we'll open up at this point over here.
[01:37] We'll start to see price sweep below the open of the day, continue upwards during New York typically, and then eventually, it will close around this area.
[01:43] Now, what we need to look at in particular is what happens around the low and what happens around the high of the day.
[01:51] For us who are going to be trading both London and New York session, this is the point that we're really going to be concerned with.
[02:00] It's actually catching the low of the
[02:02] day to be able to continue with most of the move.
[02:04] Cuz if you really think about it, this isn't going to be the majority of the move.
[02:08] This is not going to be the majority of the move.
[02:10] Where we see most of the actual volatility is going to be throughout the day.
[02:15] So, the key is this.
[02:17] If we can position ourselves around this low over here, right below the sweep of the daily open, that is going to be our high quality trade.
[02:25] So, what does that typically look like?
[02:27] Again, we've got to be looking at the specific timings.
[02:29] Typically, our Asia range is going to consolidate between 12:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m. UK time.
[02:36] Now, what that actually looks like in terms of EST, it would be is it would be roughly around 7:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m. EST.
[02:44] For London, that's going to be 12:00 a.m.
[02:49] So, around 5:00 a.m. BST.
[02:53] Then, from that point, what we typically look for is a sweep of one side of Asia range.
[02:58] So, in this particular example, we can see that we've actually
[03:02] got the high that's been swept.
[03:04] So, from that point, what we typically look for is a pullback and a continuation to the downside.
[03:10] But, one key thing you've got to know as well is it must be aligned with time.
[03:13] Now, in particular, what times are we going to be looking at?
[03:17] Our window is from 8:00 to 10:00 a.m. in the morning.
[03:20] This will be BST.
[03:23] And then, if we take that back as all, that will be 3:00 to 5:00 a.m. EST.
[03:29] Now, if it doesn't happen within that, we can actually have a half an hour window on either side.
[03:35] Typically, if it's before 8:00 a.m. open for London session, it won't be as high probability.
[03:39] But, if it's after, that's also okay as well.
[03:43] Now, one of the questions that you guys probably have is how do you execute on this?
[03:45] There's a few ways.
[03:47] You can obviously go for entry limits, which will be placed after the actual pullback, so the change of character over here.
[03:54] We could literally just enter an entry limit, which will look a little something like this.
[04:01] However, my preference is obviously going to be the
[04:03] pullback here, and then we look for them engulfing candles.
[04:05] Now, about engulfing candles, I'm going to show you a PDF in just a sec.
[04:09] And here it is.
[04:11] So, this is the engulfing candle rule strategy from start to finish.
[04:13] I've basically explained everything you're ever going to need in this free 48-page PDF guide.
[04:19] So, to get access to it, literally just click the link in the description for the free Telegram group, and you'll see everything over there.
[04:26] And so, now the question actually arises, what happens when we've got a tight Asia range and two sweeps of the market, one above and one below?
[04:31] Well, the answer is very simple.
[04:33] All we simply have to look for is another break of structure towards the downside or towards the upside.
[04:39] So, as an example, it will look a little something like this, where price may play about the center zone, and eventually it continues downwards.
[04:47] At that point, we are now clear.
[04:49] We are going to start to look for sales.
[04:51] All we simply wait for is that pullback up until around this region, and then we start to look for our entries specifically at this zone.
[04:57] So, this is the entire model.
[05:00] Let's actually get into a live example to show you how
[05:04] this actually looks like.
[05:05] So, guys, just a very quick one for a second.
[05:07] If you are looking to get funded with one of the top prop firms at the moment, then look no further than Ola Prime, because they are genuinely killing it when it comes to this entire thing.
[05:16] They have been the first prop firm out there, as far as I'm aware, to be third-party audited by Deloitte.
[05:20] So, if you don't know who Deloitte is, they essentially deal with all the auditing firms throughout the entire world.
[05:26] And what you can actually see is they've got zero payout denials, fully audited, fully confirmed, 98.3% of their payouts get paid out within one single hour.
[05:36] They're broker-backed.
[05:38] They have been confirmed now officially as the fastest payout prop firm.
[05:40] They're award-winning.
[05:42] Honestly, guys, there's not much else you need to know.
[05:45] Now, one of the biggest things going on at the moment is they are running an up to 50% off sale if you actually use the link in the description and one of the codes on the website.
[05:54] If not, use code DMO and it will probably get you the best deal as well.
[05:58] Honestly, just run to this.
[06:00] It's one of the best top prop prop firms at the moment and I've been using it myself and really been enjoying my time with
[06:05] them so far.
[06:07] So, let's get straight back into the video.
[06:09] So, as you can see in front of us, we've got this nice life case study example from EUR/USD of last month and I believe this was on the 14th of May 2026.
[06:18] So, for those of you want to check it out, here it is.
[06:20] Now, it happens during our London session.
[06:22] As we can see, we've got our Asia high and our Asia low being formed.
[06:26] At that point, we've got a sweep of the high and the low.
[06:29] So, this is where it causes a lot of confusion.
[06:31] So, here's rule number one.
[06:33] We have to wait for that break of structure and really and truly, it's all about waiting.
[06:37] We can't rush into something like this cuz then we're simply just going to be guessing.
[06:40] Now, an extra little bit of advice when it comes to this, we don't always have to wait for an engulfing candle on the lower time frames.
[06:47] So, what do I mean by that?
[06:49] On the higher time frames, you actually want this to fully engulf downwards to give you that confirmation.
[06:54] Even if it's a wick on the lower time frames, it's completely fine because this time frame is fractal.
[07:00] From that point, we're going to be waiting for our pullback.
[07:04] So, we are definitely confirmed that we're pushing towards the
[07:06] downside.
[07:07] We will then mark up our zones. As you
[07:09] can see, we've got two particular areas
[07:11] of interest. We've got this fair value
[07:13] gap lying just over there and then we've
[07:16] also got our supply zone on the 5-minute
[07:18] time frame. Now, this is the problem
[07:20] when it comes to entry limits because
[07:22] you don't know exactly where you're
[07:24] going to enter. Is it going to be the
[07:25] fair value gap? Is it the actual supply
[07:27] zone itself? So, the way to resolve this
[07:30] is actually just waiting for the
[07:32] reactions and this is what the engulfing
[07:34] candle rule is all about. Typically,
[07:36] what we're going to be waiting for at
[07:37] this point over here is we simply wait
[07:40] for price to come back to our supply
[07:42] zone. We do not enter on the first
[07:44] engulfing candle we see. We wait for
[07:47] that consolidation period to start to
[07:48] build up. And typically, we're going to
[07:50] get a very, very clear sign of an
[07:53] engulfing candle or moving away from the
[07:55] actual zone. So, let's wait for this to
[07:57] actually clear up.
[07:58] No entry so far.
[08:01] Let's see candle by candle.
[08:03] We've just passed our London key zone,
[08:06] which obviously we can extend by about half an hour to about an hour or so.
[08:10] That's completely fine as well.
[08:11] So, we've got our consolidation period.
[08:13] Our eyes are set on sales, and that's all we're going to be looking for.
[08:17] So, now we're approaching the low.
[08:20] As you can see, this candle forms over here.
[08:21] If we can potentially get the next candle,
[08:25] yep, that's exactly what we're looking for.
[08:27] All we're simply going to do at that point is we market execute.
[08:29] Stop loss just above the most recent high.
[08:31] Take profit, we are always going to be aiming for three risk reward.
[08:33] Now, some of you might be asking, why is it three risk reward?
[08:37] I've traded, I've tested this exact setup and this exact strategy over thousands of trades, up to 15 years of data I've tested for the past few years, and three risk reward I found is the most optimum.
[08:53] And simply, all we're going to do at that point is we set our take profits, 75% partials over there, stop loss above here, and we're good to go.
[08:58] And we literally just let the trade run.
[09:00] And that is as simple as it is.
