BREAK OF STRUCTURE (BOS)
A Break of Structure happens when price breaks a key previous swing high or swing low, showing that the market may be continuing in a particular direction.
π Bullish BOS: Price forms Higher Highs (HH) and Higher Lows (HL), then breaks above the previous significant high.
π Bearish BOS: Price forms Lower Highs (LH) and Lower Lows (LL), then breaks below the previous significant low.
β οΈ Important: Not every small break is a valid BOS. Focus on clear, significant swing points, preferably with a strong candle close beyond the level. A wick alone can be a liquidity sweep or false break.
π‘ Trader Tip: BOS is stronger when combined with higher-timeframe bias, support/resistance, order blocks, FVGs, or Fibonacci levels.
