Trend Identification: Utilizing Higher Highs and Higher LowsTechnical Indicator - William Fractal
Setting - 20 period
About the Indicator : William Fractal is a technical analysis tool used by traders in financial markets to identify potential turning points and trends. It is based on the concept of fractals, which are self-similar patterns that repeat themselves on different scales. The William Fractal is formed when there is a series of five bars, with the middle bar having the highest high and the lowest low in comparison to the surrounding bars. Traders use this pattern to determine potential buy and sell signals, as a fractal forming at the bottom of a downtrend could signal a potential reversal, while a fractal forming at the top of an uptrend could signal a potential trend continuation. The William Fractal can be used in combination with other technical indicators to improve trading decisions.

Introduction to market structureHey everyone!👋
In this article, we'll dive into market structure, providing insightful examples to enhance your understanding of this concept.
Please remember this is an educational post to help all of our members better understand concepts used in trading or investing. This in no way promotes a particular style of trading!
Market structure is a basic form of understanding how markets move. It can be seen as the flow of the price between a series of swing highs and swing lows.
The market moves in trends. These trends are nothing but a combination of different structures.
The market structure allows you to be in sync with the market and avoid counter-trend trading, which enhances the probability of your setups.
There are broadly 3 types of structures:
1. Bullish (Uptrend)
2. Bearish (Downtrend)
3. Ranging (Sideways)
Illustration: Bullish market structure
Illustration: Bearish market structure
Illustration: Range market structure
📈 What is an uptrend?
✅ Characterised by a bullish market structure.
✅ Formation of higher highs followed by higher lows.
✅ For an uptrend to stay intact, it must preserve its ascending structure - higher highs must follow higher lows.
✅ Lower highs are allowed if the price goes into compression or re-accumulation.
📉 What is a downtrend?
✅ Characterised by a bearish market structure.
✅ Formation of lower highs followed by lower lows.
✅ For a downtrend to stay intact, it must preserve its descending structure - lower highs must follow lower lows.
✅ Lower highs are allowed if the price goes into compression or re-distribution.
⚡ What is a range?
✅ A range is a zone where the price finds itself bouncing between two levels.
✅ These levels are - range high and range low.
✅ The size of the range is dependent on different factors such as asset class, demand-supply, volatility, etc.
A lot of times, the structure won’t be as clear as you want it to be. Conversely, sometimes the structure will replicate the textbook. Hence, you need to be flexible in your approach.
Sometimes, trading in range-bound markets can be challenging due to the choppiness in price movements. However, when the price action is more defined, some traders may prefer to trade the range by executing breakout trades or mean reversion trades from the range high to the range low or vice versa.
It is better to combine market structure with other concepts/indicators for better results.
Thanks for reading! As we mentioned before, this isn't trading advice, but rather information about a tool that many traders use. Hope this was helpful!
See you all next week. 🙂

Beginners Guide to Market StructureMarket Structure is the most fundamental aspect of analysing charts, mastering it goes a long way in increasing one's reading of price. It provides us with a narrative with which to look at price. At a glance market structure looks quite simple but when studied in depth it has many nuances & can provide with very valuable information. Market structure is fractal in nature which means that the same pattern of price making higher highs & lower lows or vice versa repeats on all time frames. A bullish market structure on a higher time frame can have a bearish market structure on a lower time frame in its retracement leg. To analyse market structure a Top Down approach is used in which we start out by marking the structure on a higher time frame & then move down to lower time frames repeating the same process till we know where price is presently.

NIFTY WANTS TO GO UPWeaknesses is increasing in nifty day by day.
As you see in chart nifty made all time high @ 18887.6.
Also, Yesterday nifty tried to go up but it was a trap (we discussed it in my early post).
Now, In chart you can observe that nifty has strong resistance which is indicated with red line.
Today, nifty gave us false signal at point B.
So, we can consider Yesterday's low as support which is confirmed by today's low @ 14:15PM candle.
18550-18525 (Blue box) is considered as resistance for tomorrow.
At last point A is the most important.
Volumes in both candles are almost equal but last candle can't break second last candle's high.
In conclusion, Nifty is still in pressure.
Be Careful with Nifty50As I said in title that “Be Careful with Nifty50”.
9th December can be hard for some trader.
If you are new try to avoid trad for tomorrow.
As you can see in picture Point A was our first clue of trend.
After touched Point A nifty made New Low @ 18577.90.
Same situation in Point B, After Touched Point B it made new low @ 18564.5.
Now, Point C is little bit tough.
At Point C nifty can’t even break today’s low which is @ 18536.95.
According to me, 18600-18650 is trap.

BPCL long opportunityNSE:BPCL
Stock -> BPCL
TimeFrame -> Weekly
Hello all!
BPCL has been moving in a channel since Sep 2017. Its came back to its lower trendline, took support, bounced off and now has broken trendline 1 with good volumes. This makes for a good opportunity to go long!
Risk-averse traders should wait for a strong closing above the nearest swing high (yellow box). The stock will start trading above its 50-week EMA after it crosses the swing high and thus the probability of success would be much higher
*NOT A CALL*

United Spirits Long opportunityNSE:MCDOWELL_N
Stock -> United Sprits (McDowell)
TimeFrame -> Weekly
Hello all!
United Spirits had been moving in a Symmetrical triangle pattern since 2012. It finally broke out of it 9 years later in September 2021 post which it started moving in a flag and pole pattern. After a year in October 2022, it broke out of its flag. This makes for a good opportunity to go long!
The confluence of two bullish breakouts combined with support from 50-week EMA and both 200 and 50-day EMA further strengthens my conviction.
Risk to Reward ratio also seems decent.
*NOT A CALL*
