Market Structure CHoCH/BOS (Fractal)

Market Structure CHoCH/BOS (Fractal) rebuilds the structure map from fractal patterns instead of classic swing points, labeling a change of character where a trend may be reversing and a break of structure where it extends. Fractals yield shorter, more frequent labels that adapt quickly to market changes — the trade-off is stricter swing recognition, which can leave some reversals unlabeled. An experimental build, and openly framed as one.

How to Trade the Market Structure CHoCH/BOS (Fractal)?

• CHoCH: the character of the move is shifting — treat it as a signal of potential trend reversal.
• BOS: price sets a new high or low in the prevailing direction, suggesting continuation.
• Support & resistance: optional levels drawn from the lowest and highest points within each detected structure's interval, akin to order blocks; a circle marks where a level is breached and stops extending.
• Length trade-off: higher settings target longer-term fractal patterns for a broader structural view, at the cost of later labels.

The built-in dashboard reports structure as a percentage of fractals detected — a quick sanity check on how well the fractal method is resolving into usable labels on the current market.

• Show Dashboard with Location & Size: the statistics table and its placement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why use fractals instead of swing points?

Fractal patterns give a more granular, adaptive read with more frequent structure labels. The cost is restrictiveness: qualifying swings are stricter, so some genuine reversals never get labeled — worth testing against your market before committing.

How does it compare with the classic structure approach?

The classical swing-point method lives in Smart Money Concepts; this build is its experimental fractal-based counterpart. Running both, the dashboard's structure-to-fractal percentage helps quantify the difference.

Is Market Structure CHoCH/BOS (Fractal) free to use?

Yes — it's freely available on the LuxAlgo Library. Quant, LuxAlgo's AI, can backtest it for you straight from this page.
