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.
