Inducement

Smart Money

The bait

An obvious little pullback low gets formed right before the real zone. Retail sets stops under it, smart money sweeps it, THEN the real move leaves from the deeper level. The trap before the entry.

Check yourself

Inducement exists to…

  1. Confirm retail entries
  2. Manufacture liquidity just before the true reversal point correct
  3. Slow the market

The obvious level gets raided first, funding the move from the real one. Bait, sweep, launch.
