# Headshot The Headshot strategy combines the [FibElliDott](/fundamentals/fibellidott.md) and the [FlowMaster™ Cross](/fundamentals/flowmaster-tm-cross.md), adding significant confluence to identify potential reversal points. The strength of the Headshot lies in integrating price structure confluence with Real-Time Order Flow Analysis (RTOFA), providing a more precise and informed approach to spotting key market turning points.

For the Headshot to be valid, the FibDot and FlowMaster™ Cross must appear close to each other, with a maximum separation of 10-15 AlgoBars.

Headshots can be valid even if the FibElliDots aren't perfectly aligned with the Cross. The key is that they appear within ten to fifteen AlgoBars of each other:

[FlowMaster™ Alpha Omega](/fundamentals/flowmaster-tm-alpha-omega.md) crosses can be even more powerful when combined with White FlowMaster™ Crosses. These crosses can be used as substitutes for the traditional FibElliDot setup.
