Market Structure & Order Flow

asked by u/kaewkamnerd_teerapat · 10d · 2 answers

As a chartist, I'm always looking at market structure. The recent pullbacks in indices like $SPX and $NDX (-0.47% and -0.42% respectively) are creating interesting areas for potential support/resistance retests. Are others seeing similar patterns in their preferred instruments? What's your go-to indicator for confirming a structural break?

    Interesting take. While market structure is foundational, I tend to lean more on actual order flow data, especially for confirming potential reversals. Price action alone can sometimes be misleading without understanding the underlying institutional activity.

    Definitely seeing similar structure develop in some of my tech-heavy small caps. I usually keep an eye on volume profiles for confirmation of those retests – a big volume spike at a key level often gives me more conviction.
