STOP HUNTS MADE SIMPLE
You don’t need a fancy strategy to catch Turtle Soup setups.
All you need is liquidity + RSI Divergence to spot stop hunts and fade the fake move.
Here’s the simplest way to do it: 🧵👇 x.com
1/ What is Turtle Soup?
It’s just a stop hunt reversal.
Market makers run stops above a key high (or below a key low) to trap breakout traders, then price reverses.
Your job? Wait for the trap and take the other side.
2/ Keep It Simple – The ONLY 3 Things You Need
1️⃣ Liquidity Grab – Price takes out a previous high/low
2️⃣ RSI Divergence – Momentum disagrees with price
3️⃣ Rejection Candle – Fast reversal from the stop hunt
That’s it. No indicators, no complex rules. Just watch price do its thing.
3/ How to Spot the Right Turtle Soup Setup
📌 Step 1: Find a Fast Move That Fails
- Price breaks a recent high/low but instantly pulls back.
- The breakout looks strong at first but immediately hesitates.
📌 Step 2: Check RSI
- Price makes a higher high (for shorts) or lower low (for longs).
- RSI does the opposite → This signals the breakout is weak.
📌 Step 3: Enter After Rejection
- Wait for a strong rejection candle (e.g., engulfing, pin bar).
- Enter on the next candle after confirmation.
🎯 Stop Loss: Above/below the stop hunt wick
🎯 Target: Previous swing low/high or key level
4/ Why This Works (No Overcomplication Needed)
❌ You don’t need 10 indicators.
❌ You don’t need fancy confirmations.
❌ You don’t need to predict anything.
All you do is wait for a failed breakout, check RSI divergence, and take the reversal once price confirms.
Simple. Effective. Repeatable.
5/ Best Market Conditions for Turtle Soup
✅ Sideways markets – Stop hunts happen when price is chopping.
✅ HTF levels – Fakeouts happen at key price levels.
✅ NOT in strong trends – Avoid chasing, let the trap set up.
6/ 🔥 Final Takeaway:
Retail traders chase fake breakouts.
Stoic Traders fade the trap.
Next time you see a stop hunt + RSI divergence, don’t overthink, just execute. 🎯
7/ This is just one confirmation technique we use inside the Stoic Traders community.
