Today we'll go through:

• Break of structure
• Change of character
• Internal & External Structure

Lets go!

🔹 BOS

BOS is short 'Break of Structure' and indicates a trend continuation.

• Appears in up- and downtrends.
• Is needed to form new HHs or new LLs
• Also called 'bullish BOS' and 'bearish BOS'

Let's have a look at the uptrends.

🔹 Bullish BOS

In a uptrend price constantly forms new:

HHs ↠ expansion
HLs ↠ correction

I order to have a continuation of trend, you want to see price break the previous high.

A successful break is called 'bullish BOS'

🔹 Bearish BOS

Vice versa in a downtrend price forms new:

LLs ↠ Expansion
HLs ↠ Correction

So to see a continuation of trend, you need to see price break the previous low.

As mentioned before this is called a 'bearish BOS'

🔹 CHOCH

CHOCH is short for 'Change of Character' and is the first indicator for a trend reversal.

• 'bearish BOS in uptrend ↠ reversal
• 'bullish BOS' in downtrend ↠ reversal

Sounds complicated but check the visuals, Its simple AF!

🔹 Bearish CHOCH

Uptrend ↠ Downtrend 

If you see a 'bearish BOS' in a uptrend, you're witnessing a CHOCH.

• Price forms a new swing low ↠ LL expansion 
• Followed by a lower high ↠ LH correction

🔹 Bullish CHOCH

Downtrend ↠ Uptrend

If you see a 'bullish BOS' in a downtrend, you're witnessing a CHOCH.

• Price forms a new swing high ↠ HH expansion 
• Followed by a lower low ↠ LL correction

Makes sense doesn't it?
