Market Structure Fractals
The structure layer MetaTrader 5 was missing
Most traders stare at candles and draw structure manually — imprecisely, inconsistently, and always too late. You know what a fractal high and low look like. The question is whether you can spot every one, mark it cleanly, and track it the moment price breaks through. You can't. Market Structure Fractals can.
| MetaTrader 5 shows you price. It doesn't show you structure. That gap — between a candle pattern and a confirmed break of structure — is where traders miss entries, misjudge trend direction, and trade against the market. Market Structure Fractals closes that gap automatically, on every bar, on every timeframe. |
What It Does
| Automatic Fractal Detection Every confirmed fractal high and low is identified using a symmetric lookback window. No repainting. A fractal is only marked once its right-wing bars are closed. | Live Break of Structure Alerts When price closes above a fractal high or below a fractal low, the label updates instantly to "bos ↑" or "bos ↓". You see the break the moment it's confirmed. |
| Clean Structure Lines A horizontal line extends from every fractal to the bar where structure breaks. Unbroken fractals extend live to the current bar. The chart stays readable — no clutter, no expired drawings. | Contradiction Filtering A low fractal above a high fractal is structurally impossible. The indicator detects and removes contradictory fractals automatically, keeping your structure map clean and valid at all times. |
| Adjustable Fractal Period Control how strict the fractal window is. A smaller period catches more frequent, minor structure. A larger period filters out noise and highlights only the key swing highs and lows that matter. | Full Visual Customisation Set line style (solid, dashed, dotted), line thickness (1–3 px), color, and how many bars right of detection the line initially extends. Adapts to any chart layout or personal preference. |
Works on any symbol and any timeframe. No additional indicators required. Zero repainting.
Also Available on TradingView
