Change in state of deliveryCISDAdvanced
Price closing back through the opening level of the candles that started the last move, showing delivery has flipped direction.
What it means
If price rallied from a series of down candles, a close below the open of that series is a bearish CISD. It is often an earlier, tighter signal than a full market structure shift.
How to spot it
- Find the candle or candles where the last move began.
- Watch for a close beyond their opening price.
Common mistakes
- Using it alone, without a sweep or a session context.
