Core Concepts
Internal Structure
Everything between two swing points — breaks within this range are complex pullbacks, not trend changes
Internal structure refers to all price action between two true swing points (swing high and swing low). Breaks of structure within this range look like trend changes on lower timeframes but are actually complex pullbacks delivering price to supply in premium or demand in discount. Internal breaks MUST happen for price to reach the zone it needs to mitigate. Only when the actual swing high or swing low breaks does the trend change — everything else is internal navigation.
✓How to Recognize
- •Identify the true swing high and swing low of the current leg — everything between them is internal structure
- •Internal breaks of structure to the upside within a bearish leg are complex pullbacks to premium supply
- •Demand levels created during internal bullish structure within a bearish leg will fail once supply is mitigated
- •The correction ends when price mitigates a significant supply or demand zone in the correct premium/discount area
⚡How to Avoid
- →Flipping bias on internal breaks — a break within the swing range is NOT a trend change
- →Trading internal demand levels within a bearish leg as if they will hold long-term
- →Confusing lower timeframe bullish structure with actual swing structure change
- →Expecting internal breaks to produce extended moves — they deliver price to zones, not create new trends
