Bullish Market Scenario
On a GBP/USD 1-hour chart, an uptrend begins after a CHoCH signals a shift in market structure. The bullish bias is then confirmed by a BOS, indicating trend continuation. Before pushing higher, price revisits an Inducement Zone, collecting liquidity before continuing the upward movement.
Bearish Market Scenario
On a USD/CAD 1-hour chart, a CHoCH signals a bearish market reversal. Price retraces into an Inducement Zone to absorb liquidity, followed by a strong downside move. The formation of a BOS confirms bearish continuation and validates the short-side setup.
