Market Structure Mapping
Learn systematic rules for mapping market structure and confirming breaks
Why Map Market Structure?
Creating clarity in complex markets
By formally mapping market structure, we can track structural ranges and monitor trends.
This ensures we're never caught on the wrong side β direction is always clear.
Mapping can be subjective without rules. The best approach is systematic.
Rules reduce discretion and create a repeatable process for identifying structure.
Systematic mapping = Clarity + Consistency
Swing Candles
Use swing candle formations to identify consistent HH/HL/LH/LL points for your mapping.
Hard-Close
For strongest confirmation, wait for a hard-close candle that opens AND closes beyond the level.
Extreme Points
Use the lowest low (bullish) or highest high (bearish) in pullbacks for conservative invalidation points.
