Break of Structure Entry Strategy
Enter in the direction of a confirmed BOS after a swing break. Use swingLookback for pivots and confirmClose to avoid wick-only breaks.
What is Break of Structure Entry?
Break of Structure (BOS) marks continuation when price closes beyond the last swing high (bull) or swing low (bear) per swingLookback. confirmClose requires candle close beyond level, not just a wick. stopBeyondSwing places stop past the broken swing. VaultCharts structure tools highlight swings and breaks — use trade plans to codify rules; no dedicated BOS script in-app.
