Trend's heartbeat
BOS = price taking out the last swing in the TREND direction. Continuation confirmed. Each BOS re-arms the trend; a missing BOS is the first silence before the turn.
Check yourself
In an uptrend, a bullish BOS is…
- A lower low
- A close through the last swing high correct
- Any green candle
Structure speaks in swings. Clearing the prior swing high = the uptrend renewing its lease.
