Price Structure
Market Structure: Highs, Lows, and Breaks
Market structure describes how recent highs and lows are forming and whether price is trending, ranging, or breaking structure.
Why it matters
This concept is part of live backend analysis and is used to explain market context, not to produce standalone buy or sell instructions.

How it is used in NotifyTrader
NotifyTrader detects swing highs, swing lows, higher highs, lower lows, structure breaks, and an uptrend, downtrend, or sideways structure label.
Core structure ideas
Higher highs and higher lows often suggest upward structure. Lower lows and lower highs often suggest downward structure.
A structure break happens when price moves beyond a recent swing area enough to change the interpretation of the prior structure.
Why structure is important
Indicators can conflict in noisy markets. Structure gives the assistant a direct view of how price is behaving.
Structure is especially useful around support, resistance, breakouts, and fakeout risk.
How NotifyTrader uses market structure
The backend detects market structure from recent closes, highs, and lows. Assistant answers can use structure to explain whether price behavior supports or conflicts with indicators.
Alert receipts can use swing highs and lows for breakout lines and range boxes.
Questions to ask the assistant
- Is SOL making higher highs or lower lows?
- Did BTC break market structure?
- Does structure support the current trend label?
