HOW FOCUSPROFIT
READS THE MARKET

PHILOSOPHY

FocusProfit is an analytical method built on understanding market structure and Smart Money Concepts (SMC). This is not a set of entry prompts or a ready-made trading recipe. We show which phase the market is in, which zones of interest are at play, what the priority scenario is, and why — so you make decisions with full context.

The Trade Model indicator and the analytics can be used independently or together: the indicator automates structural markup on charts, while the analytics provide global context and trade plans. The final call is always yours — we give you the tool to make it an informed one.

BOS & CHoCH

Markets don't move randomly — they follow the logic of liquidity and institutional interest. The approach is built on reading price behaviour through two key concepts:

Based on these two concepts, the market organises itself into ranges — price zones with defined boundaries.

TRADING RANGES

The 4-hour range is the base unit of analysis. Each range has an upper and a lower boundary. These boundaries are formed at the moment the range begins — on the close of the candle that initiates a new structure — and remain fixed until a new range starts.

Inside the range, price seeks liquidity at zones of interest, forms reactions at local extremes, develops corrections, and retests levels. The boundaries act as priority targets: bounce from the lower boundary or rejection from the upper. A close beyond a boundary on the opposite side initiates a new range. Each range is tracked cohort-style — which makes it possible to follow the history and repetitive logic of structure.

MTF CONTEXT

The higher timeframe sets the direction and constraints for lower ones. The analytical hierarchy:

• 1MGlobal context and long-term liquidity targets.
• 1WIntermediate trend and major ranges.
• 1DLocal movements and daily structure.
• 4HCurrent ranges — the primary working timeframe.

If the monthly context is bearish, price may correct upward on the weekly or daily — but the monthly's downside targets won't be negated. Every pullback is an opportunity to reassess the scenario. On the 4H, imbalances (FVG) and reactions from higher-timeframe fractals are identified to determine priority targets.

HOW ALERTS WORK

When a new 4-hour candle opens a new range, a Telegram notification is sent: the instrument, structural direction, boundaries of the new range, and the formation time. This is not a trade prompt — it is an entry point for analysis, a reason to look at the chart in the context of monthly and weekly plans.

On average, 3–5 new ranges per month form across the four instruments currently covered:

The primary delivery channel is a private Telegram group. Additional channels may be added in the future.

GLOSSARY

• BOS (Break of Structure) — a break of the last local swing high/low in the direction of the trend; trend continuation.
• CHoCH (Change of Character) — a shift in market direction; trend reversal from bullish to bearish or vice versa.
• Range — a price zone with upper and lower boundaries; formed at the open of a new structure, boundaries remain fixed until a new range begins.
• FVG (Fair Value Gap, Imbalance) — a gap between candles with unfilled volume that price may return to fill.
• Liquidity — clusters of orders (stops, supply/demand levels) that price is drawn towards.
• MTF (Multi-Timeframe) — simultaneous analysis of market structure across multiple timeframes.
• RB (Reaction Zone) — a price reaction zone at a higher-timeframe fractal.
• Smart Money Concepts (SMC) — an analytical approach based on institutional player behaviour and liquidity hunting.
