The Structural SVM Ranker puts a number on market structure. Every break of structure (BOS) and change of character (CHoCH) it detects from pivot highs and lows is scored 0–100 by a model inspired by linear support vector machines: relative volume against its 20-period average, RSI distance from the 50 midpoint, and the ATR-normalized distance price closed beyond the pivot are weighted, combined, and passed through a sigmoid. The score separates meaningful structural shifts from breaks that merely look the part.

How to Trade the Structural SVM Ranker?

  • Solid BOS lines: structure broke in the direction of the prevailing trend. Continuation candidates, more dependable with scores of roughly 60–70 and above.
  • Dashed CHoCH lines: structure broke against the trend; a CHoCH scoring above 70 flags a reversal backed by volume and momentum.
  • Scores below 30: weak participation. Treat the break as a possible false breakout or liquidity sweep rather than a signal.
  • Dashboard: a real-time table summarizes recent structural breaks and their scores without inspecting each label.

As one of the machine-learning tools in the library, its role is filtering: rather than reacting to every BOS or CHoCH, you act where volume, momentum, and expansion agree.

Structural SVM Ranker Settings

  • Pivot Lookback: bars required to confirm a pivot; larger values map broader swings, smaller ones catch intraday shifts.
  • Show BOS / Show CHoCH: listed in the settings, but BOS and CHoCH lines and labels are currently always drawn.
  • Relative Volume Weight / RSI Momentum Weight / Break Distance Weight: how much each feature influences the final score.
  • ATR Length: period of the ATR used to normalize break distance.
  • Dashboard / Position / Size: the on-chart ranking table and its placement.
