How to Know When the Market Has Actually Changed
How to tell when something has actually changed in the market.
Before you start: No prior concept needed.
Part of the MY EDGE framework — refined through thousands of hours of chart study.
Market structure is often the first thing traders think they understand — and the last thing they actually master. It isn't about whether price is printing higher highs or lower lows. It's about how this framework defines directional bias and expected price delivery, within a clear hierarchy from the monthly level down to execution.

- Context
- Confirmation

Frequently Asked Questions
What does Market Structure mean in this framework?⌄
It defines directional bias and expected price delivery across a hierarchy from monthly bias down to daily bias, and covers how to recognize a genuine market structure shift (MSS) rather than just any swing break.
How do I know if a swing break is a genuine MSS?⌄
Check three things at once — was a liquidity sweep present before the break, did the break close with displacement rather than just get tagged by a wick, and does it align with the current draw on liquidity; only then is it a real MSS.
Is every break of a swing high or low a market structure shift?⌄
No — the market makes dozens of minor breaks a day, and most aren't structurally significant; declaring every one an MSS is one of the most common mistakes this document warns against.
Does Market Structure tell me when to actually enter a trade?⌄
No — it deliberately covers structure only; execution rules belong to the Decision Engine and Trade Preparation Checklist, since structure tells you what has changed, not whether that's enough for a trade.
