THE BASICS
BULLISH MARKET STRUCTURE BEARISH MARKET STRUCTURE
The formation of Higher Highs and Higher Lows in succession (uptrend). The formation of Lower Lows and Lower Highs in succession (downtrend).

A Higher Low is only confirmed once the previous High is broken (BOS) A Lower High is only confirmed once the previous Low is broken (BOS)
which then leads to the creation of a new Higher High. w h i c h t h e n l e a d s t o t h e c r e a t i o n o f a n e w L o w e r L o w.

After a BOS - we expect a pullback on that timeframe 💡

BULLISH MARKET STRUCTURE (a significant pullback KEY POINTS 👇
that meets your pip size rule)

IN A BULLISH TREND:

SWING LOW: Lowest point that caused the Swing High

SWING HIGH: A significant pullback that meets your pip size rule

IN A BEARISH TREND:

SWING HIGH: Highest point that caused the Swing Low

SWING LOW: A significant pullback that meets your pip size rule

EXAMPLE:

A minimum Swing pullback on EURUSD must be at least:

H4 —> 80 pips
M15 —> 30 pips

MARKET STRUCTURE MASTERCLASS

3 TYPES OF MARKET STRUCTURE👇

1. SWING

Swing is King and should always be our main focus taking precedence over all types of Structure (BOS)

Mapping - Candle Body Close

2. INTERNAL

Internal Structure is larger movements/swings in price contained within our Swing Range (iBOS)

This helps us navigate our way through price action when Swing Ranges become large & complex

Mapping - Candle Body Close

3 . F R A C TA L

2 Open a new chart layout for the exercise (top right) and start with a completely blank chart with only Japanese Candlesticks showing.

3 Now decide on the timeframe you want to analyse (e.g. Daily or H4) and start the exercise from the beginning of 2022 (or before).

4 If you are analysing EURUSD you can use the pip rule guideline below for mapping your swing structure or create your own rules (see page 7).
