BOS

Built for swing traders who trade with conviction. BOS waits for the market to prove itself before drawing a range.



BOS Mode is based on a slower, more complete, and cleaner trend change.
It is mainly used by swing traders and is identified after a break, using the most extreme high or low between the previous range and the point of the break.


What it means: Trend continuation. The market has broken its most significant structural point, confirming directional bias.

In BOS mode, the counter point is conservative — it uses the most extreme level. You'll get fewer breaks, but each one carries more weight.


OB Placement in BOS Mode

The counter point is the most extreme swing high or low found between the break point and the previous range extreme — the lowest low for a bullish break, the highest high for a bearish break.

The OB candle is the last opposite candle before that extreme counter point.
The zone is wider and sits further from the break — the counter captures the full structural swing.
Fewer breaks fire, but each zone carries more weight. Best for swing entries where broader context matters.

INFO

Switching to MSB moves the counter to the most recent level — producing a tighter zone closer to the break.
