📌 ICT Summary

text
LIQUIDITY PURGED: Below 5,145 ✓
CURRENT SUPPORT: AL (5,145) holding ✓
DOL (Draw on Liquidity): UP → AM (5,197) → AH (5,250)
DXY CORRELATION: Weak dollar = Tailwind for Gold ✓

✅ Direction: UP

According to ICT concepts:

"The algorithm has purged sell-side liquidity at AL. The next inefficiency is above at AM (5,197). With DXY weak at its AM, the path of least resistance is UP."

Expected move: 5,192 → 5,197 → 5,250

Wait for: Confirmation candle breaking above 5,192 with displacement for entry.
