A liquidity sweep is when price briefly pushes past a level where many orders are resting (usually stop losses above a high or below a low), triggers them, and then reverses. On NAS100, sweeps often happen right before the day's main move.
The more obvious the level, the more orders tend to cluster there.
Large orders need liquidity to be filled. Stop orders resting beyond a level provide it. When price runs those stops and immediately rejects, it often signals that the move through the level was not genuine.
Not every move through a level is a sweep. A genuine breakout holds beyond the level and continues; a sweep fails and closes back inside. Waiting for confirmation is what separates the two, and it is why patience matters more than speed.
