Market structure curriculum
A progressive path from swing literacy to trade framing — the backbone of every Dev Frame lesson.
The curriculum is not a certificate mill. It is the shared sequence we use so intensives, workshops, and private reviews speak the same language.
Stage 1 — Swing literacy
Identify swing highs and lows without forcing symmetry. Distinguish impulsive legs from corrective pulls. Practise leaving whitespace on the chart instead of labelling every wick.
Stage 2 — Structure shifts
Define break of structure versus a simple probe. Recognise change of character after a trend exhaustion. Write the minimum evidence required before calling a bias flip.
Stage 3 — Liquidity and draws
Map equal highs/lows, session extremes, and obvious stop clusters. Ask where price is likely to seek orders before expanding. Separate “magnet” levels from personal hope.
Stage 4 — Framing the trade
Translate structure into entry criteria, invalidation, and partial management. Size only after the map is written. Accept that many sessions produce no trade.
Stage 5 — Journal and review
Replay the day with the original marks visible. Note where impatience overrode the checklist. Bring two annotated charts to any follow-up review.
Where this appears in lessons
The Market Structure Intensive walks all five stages across six evenings. The weekend workshop compresses stages 1–3. Private reviews usually start at whichever stage is breaking down in your live trading.
Preparation we ask for
Bring three months of charts on your primary market, a notebook, and a short list of recent trades you still argue with. No proprietary indicator pack is required.
