Components

Price Action Model Components

The Price Action Model utilizes a variety of visual components drawn directly onto your chart. Understanding these components is essential for reading the model correctly.

Market Structure Elements

  • Solid/Dashed Lines (CHoCH & BOS): Horizontal lines projected from pivot points.

    • A line labeled CHoCH denotes the initial, defining shift in the trend direction.

    • A line labeled BOS highlights the continuation of the trend after the CHoCH.

    • The color of the line (Bullish or Bearish) indicates the direction of the break.

Liquidity & Setup Elements

  • Liquidity Lines: Thin, customizable lines representing resting liquidity at previous pivot highs and lows. These act as magnets for price.

  • Sweep Area (S-Area) Box: A shaded rectangular box that appears when a liquidity line is broken and subsequently reversed. It highlights the exact area where the stop-run (liquidity grab) took place.

    • Green Box: Sell-side liquidity sweep (Bullish setup).

    • Red Box: Buy-side liquidity sweep (Bearish setup).

Trade Management Elements

  • Trailing Stop Band: A dynamic, shaded ribbon following the price action.

    • Its width expands and contracts based on trend strength and ATR (Average True Range).

    • Use the upper/lower edges of this band as a mechanical guide for trailing your stop-loss.

  • Dynamic TP Targets: Horizontal lines extending forward from the point the model forms. They are labeled sequentially (TP1, TP2, TP3) and represent logical, volatility-adjusted zones to scale out of your position.

Higher Timeframe (HTF) Overlays

  • Ghost Candles: Faded, semi-transparent blocks overlaying the chart. These represent the open, high, low, and close of Higher Timeframe candles, allowing you to track HTF development without switching charts.

  • HTF FVG Zones: Lightly shaded zones highlighting unmitigated Fair Value Gaps from higher timeframes. These zones act as strong areas of support, resistance, or magnets for price.
