Imagine you trade a system that makes 50% winning trades, but another 50% are losing trades. If you increase your odds of winning by only 20%, that would make 70% winning trades and 30% losing trades.
This is practical demonstration on how to effectively use our Acuity Research Terminal on the FXPesa portal. Traders will be pre-exposed to the common tools they can use to sharpen their analysis skills as they venture into trading.
In today’s tutorial we will explain exactly how to analyse Market Structure, as well as the best Forex Market Structure Trading Strategy.
Understanding market structure patterns is important in any price action forex trading strategy, so make sure to watch today’s video so that YOU can spot these patterns in the market yourself.
One of the most misunderstood but one of the most important aspects of trading is that of market structure. Having the ability to properly identify market structure is one of the easiest ways to take your trading to the next level. When you’re aware of the current structure of the market, then you can adjust the trades you take to increase their probability and see much better trading results.
So what exactly is Market Structure? Market Structure is simply a way of categorising price movement, so that we can more accurately determine what the market is likely to do next, {which we’ll be going over shortly}. The fact of the matter is that PRICE HAS MEMORY. Markets do not move in a completely random fashion, day after day. But rather they move in similar ways that they have moved in the past, and if we can effectively identify this price movement then we can greatly increase the probabilities of the trades we take.
So the first type of price movement you will commonly see is the uptrend. In an uptrend price will be forming a pattern of making higher highs and higher lows. So we have a low here, and a high here. Price pulls back and reverses at this point, making a higher low than the previous low. It then pushes upwards further, which gives us our higher high. This swing high is higher than the previous swing high.
These price moves to the upside are called impulses. And these smaller price moves to the downside are called pullbacks. When an impulse move ends and a pullback begins, these turning points in the market will give us our swing highs. And when a pullback ends and the next impulse move beings, this will give us our swing lows. It’s quite common to see previous swing highs in the uptrend form a level of support, and when price pulls back into support it will often reverse and continue higher.
This is the basic market structure of an uptrend. But please note, this is just an illustration of an IDEAL uptrend. In a live market, price movement will NOT always be this smooth, so make sure to keep that in mind.

My name is Etienne Crete (from Montreal, Canada). I’m a swing Forex trader and help aspiring Forex traders develop a trading method that works for them so they can produce income allowing them to live with more freedom.
I blog at www.desiretotrade.com and host the Desire To Trade Podcast. I was fed up with the “fake” millionaire traders and the “get-rich-quick-trading guys”. That’s why you can expect more free content from me than what other people charge for!
If you truly want to succeed in Forex trading, I believe you need to keep working on yourself so you can improve your strengths, but also your weaknesses. Do not focus solely on what you’re good at.

BEST and EASIEST Forex Price Action Trading Strategy that will change your trading career. GAAAAAAAAAAAAANG GUYS.
This is a price action strategy I developed over the last few years of my trading career. It’s actually VERY SIMPLE…which is what trading should be all about. A lot of people make trading complex with indicators and scanners and all of this extra BS crap.
Strip the charts naked, and purely look at price. That’ll give you more of an idea on the direction more than anything.
At the end of the video is a slide that shows my exact strategy from 1-6. Hope you enjoy the video! 🙏🏾
