The Power of Three (PO3) describes how many moves unfold in three phases: accumulation (building a position in a range), manipulation (a sweep against the eventual direction), and distribution (the expansion move).
The three phases
- Accumulation: quiet, range-bound conditions
- Manipulation: a false move that grabs liquidity
- Distribution: the real, expansive move
How to use it
PO3 is a lens for patience — it reminds you that the first move is often the trap. Combine it with structure and risk control. Educational only; no outcome is guaranteed.
