The rules never drift.
A research-backed scanner that reads market structure through price action — the same conditions on every candle close. When a setup qualifies, its entry, invalidation and target come out of the structure itself, and an AI research report explains what it found.

Illustrative structure · synthetic data · not a live market feed
You did not lose to the market. You lost to the clock.
By the time you have worked through the watchlist, drawn the levels, checked the higher timeframe and confirmed the rejection, the move has already paid the traders who saw it first. Structure does not wait for you to catch up.
The hours
Ninety minutes a session, flipping through charts to find setups a machine can evaluate on every candle close, on every instrument in the universe, simultaneously.
The blind spots
You find the setups you were already looking for. A watchlist is a filter you built out of habit, and it is filtering out the best structure available to you.
The wrong side
You have taken the break and watched it fail. That candle was not bad luck. It was a readable structure, and somebody read it.
The wrong size
And some losses owe nothing to the clock. You read the structure right, sized it wrong, and a manageable setback became one you could not sit through. Risk you do not define is risk that defines the trade for you.
A breakout that fails is not a failed trade. It is a trade.
Price clears a level. Positions enter on the break. The level does not hold. Those positions become fuel. Four stages, in order — though how fast they run, and what counts as acceptance, is not the same in an index future as it is in a currency pair.
- 01
The level
A price zone the market has repeatedly respected. Structural, not decorative — it earns its status through interaction, not through where a line looks tidy.
- 02
The break
Price clears the zone. Participation arrives. Late positions commit at the worst available price, because the break is the most visible event on the chart.
- 03
The rejection
Acceptance never comes. Price returns inside the range and closes there. The break has now become the evidence against itself.
- 04
The unwind
Trapped positions exit. Their exit is the move. This is the window the scanner marks, and it is the reason the structure is worth waiting for.
Most traders have experienced all four stages. From the other side.
Price action is the vocabulary. Not an indicator stack.
Price action is the study of what price is actually doing — where it went, where it was refused, and what it did next — rather than a reading taken from an indicator derived from that same price. These are the concepts the scan reasons within.

Read the full price action thesisMultiple markets. Deliberately bounded.
Coverage is focused on instruments with enough liquidity for structure to mean something. A scanner that watches everything produces a list nobody reads — and a level in an illiquid instrument is not a level, it is an absence of trading. What is live is listed as live; what is not, is not.
NSE · BSE
Every market fails at the same point in the sequence — the circled candle. That is the argument: the structure is identical, the instrument is not.
One structure. Three horizons.
The same structural sequence runs on all three timeframes, and each one answers a different question about how long you intend to hold. Pick the horizon you actually trade and the rest is noise you never see.
Intraday
5mStructure that forms and resolves inside the session. The fastest horizon, and the one where a level is tested most often.
Swing
1hSetups that develop across sessions. Slower to qualify, and read against the higher-timeframe range rather than the day's own.
Positional
1dThe widest structure, measured in weeks. Fewer setups by construction — a daily level takes far longer to earn its status.
One market. One context. One scan.
Systematic scanning does not mean treating every market the same. Markets differ in liquidity, volatility, session length and contract mechanics, so the same candle means different things depending on where it printed. Breakout Structure evaluates price action in the context of the market and instrument being scanned rather than forcing every market through one universal assumption.
Liquidity
Depth decides whether a level is defended or simply unvisited.
Volatility
The same range width is a coil in one market and noise in another.
Session behaviour
Opens, closes and handovers create structure that 24-hour markets never form.
Structure
How ranges build, mature and resolve differs by instrument class.
Failure behaviour
How a break fails — fast, slow, or in stages — is market-specific.
Trend vs mean reversion
Some markets carry; others revert. The default assumption cannot be shared.
Indian equities
Single names carry stock-specific liquidity and news sensitivity. A level on a mid-cap does not carry the same weight as the same level on an index constituent, and the thinner the name, the less a level means at all.
Indian F&O indices
Index derivatives trade on an expiry cycle. Range behaviour, and what counts as acceptance beyond a level, shifts as expiry approaches — the same structure late in the cycle is not the same event it was at the start.
MCX commodities
Gold, silver and oil run their own volatility regimes, their own contract mechanics and a materially longer session than the equity market. Range structure is often cleaner and failures frequently more decisive.
Forex
A twenty-four-hour market with genuine session boundaries. A London break and a Tokyo break are not the same event at the same price, so the session a structure formed in is part of what it means.
Crypto
No session close and no exchange holiday. Without session boundaries, range maturity has to be measured on a different clock entirely.
One universal rule across every instrument would be convenient. It would also be wrong.
The repetitive part, done for you.
The same eight steps run on every instrument, on every candle close. Nothing is skipped because a chart looked interesting, and nothing qualifies because it nearly did. The scanning stops being your job; the decision never stops being yours.
Market universe
Identify the liquid Indian instruments in scope. Coverage is bounded on purpose — structure needs participants to mean anything.
Market context
Establish the structure, volatility and session environment the instrument is currently trading in. An equity, an index derivative and an MCX contract are not read against the same backdrop.
Price action
Apply the structural thesis — level, break, rejection — in the context of that market, rather than one universal rule set borrowed from another asset class.
Setup
Surface potential structures — levels, breaks, rejections and the sequences forming around them. Deterministic: the same data produces the same setups.
Qualification
Evaluate each candidate against predefined conditions. Partial sequences are held, not published. There is no borderline score that lets one through.
Risk
Establish the entry, the invalidation level — where the structure would be demonstrably wrong — and the target, the nearest opposing structural level.
Position size
Translate your defined risk value into a suggested quantity — lots for derivatives and commodities, shares for equities — with the contract specification applied.
Evaluation
Present the structure with the reasoning that produced it, written by the AI from the deterministic facts. You see the working, then you decide.
The facts, plainly.
- Research and analysis software. Not investment advice, and not a recommendation to trade.
- You place every order yourself, through your own broker. There is no execution layer and no broker credentials.
- You set the risk. The sizing is arithmetic on the number you supply.
- The reasoning behind every setup is shown, so you can disagree with it on the evidence.
- Markets are uncertain. A qualified setup can reach its invalidation instead of its target.
You get the structure and the working. The decision stays yours.
Every setup arrives with its reasoning attached.
A qualified setup is not a line on a chart and a price. It opens into a full research report — written by the AI from the deterministic facts, checked against them before it is stored, and structured the same way every time so you always know where to look.

What the AI does — and what it cannot
- Reads the deterministic facts of a qualified setup: the level, the break, the rejection, the geometry.
- Writes the report: what formed, what it means structurally, what would invalidate it and what to watch.
- Is checked before anything is stored. Prices outside the real geometry, and observations not present in the facts, are rejected.
- Never finds the setups, and never decides whether one qualifies. Detection and qualification are deterministic and happen before the AI sees anything.

A rating is the AI's read on setup quality, not a probability of profit. It is written after the setup has already qualified and cannot change whether it qualified.
Research thesis
Price cleared the level, failed to hold beyond it and closed back inside the prior range. The break is now evidence against itself.
Risk factors
The range is young. A second test of the same level would carry more weight than this one.
Annotated market structure
The level, the failure extreme and the opposing level the setup travels toward, drawn on the chart.
Different markets use different units.
Your risk shouldn’t have to.
Percent, points, pips, lots, ticks — every market quotes profit in its own units, and none of them compare cleanly. Breakout Structure translates them all into R: one number, measured against the risk you set.
+2.8R is the headline: for every $1 you put at risk, you’re playing for $2.80 — or ₹280 for every ₹100. The same ratio in any market. The instrument detail ($560 · 2 lots or ₹5,600 · 42 shares) still sits underneath.
Every market, one language.
Know the position before you take the trade.
A setup without a size is only half an evaluation. You define what a single idea is allowed to cost you; the scanner carries that number through the structure it just qualified and shows the arithmetic that turns it into a quantity.
Your number, carried through
The risk value you set is the input. Nothing about the sizing changes unless you change it.
Instrument-aware
Lot and contract specifications are applied where the instrument has them, so the output is expressible as an order — lots for derivatives, commodities and FX, shares for equities.
Shown, not asserted
Entry, invalidation, risk per unit and the resulting quantity are all visible. There is no step you cannot check by hand.
You define it. Per idea, not per day.
Taken from the qualified structure.
Where the structure would be wrong.
The distance between the two — 24 pips.
One standard lot. Risk per lot: $240.
$500 ÷ $240. Arithmetic, not advice.
Illustrative figures. Position sizing is arithmetic performed on values you supply; it is not risk control, not a recommendation, and not a guarantee against loss. Slippage, gaps and liquidity can all cause a realised loss to exceed the risk you defined.
Risk comes before size.
You choose the risk. The structure determines the invalidation. Position size follows.
Why Position Size Matters
A good setup is only part of the trade. Position size determines how much that setup can actually cost you. The same entry and invalidation level can represent very different risk depending on how many shares or lots you take. Breakout Structure factors your defined risk into the evaluation and shows a suggested position size alongside the setup.
- 10 lots$500Matches the risk you defined
- 11 lots$55010% more risk, for the same setup
- 15 lots$75050% more risk, for the same setup
Nothing about the setup changed across those three rows — only the quantity did. That is the whole point: the setup tells you where you are wrong, and the position size tells you what being wrong costs.

Structure breaks while you are in a meeting.
The sequence completes on its own schedule, not yours. A setup reaches you the moment it qualifies — on your phone, and in Telegram — with enough context on the lock screen to know whether it is worth opening the app.
Telegram, with the full report
Telegram is the one channel that carries the complete setup — instrument, timeframe, entry, invalidation and target — so you can read it without opening anything.
Push, for the moment it happens
App notifications carry the instrument, level, timeframe and stage on the lock screen. Enough to decide whether this one is worth your attention.
You control the noise
Quiet hours, per-instrument mutes and stage-level thresholds. Decide once which stage is worth interrupting you, and it stops being a decision.
You are not choosing between this and nothing.

The questions worth asking.
Including the ones we would rather you did not.
It is a research-backed scanner built on a price action thesis. It continuously evaluates a bounded universe of liquid instruments, identifies structural events such as breakouts and breakout failures, qualifies them against defined conditions, derives the entry, invalidation and target from the structure itself, and has an AI layer write the explanation. It is analysis software — not an advisory service and not a trading system.
No, and nobody honestly can. Trading in securities, derivatives and commodities carries risk, including the risk of losing your capital. Structural analysis changes the quality of what you are looking at. It does not change the fact that any individual setup can reach its invalidation rather than its target.
No. There is no execution layer, no broker integration and no automated order placement, and we never hold, request or store broker or exchange credentials. The scanner surfaces structures and shows the working behind them; every order is placed by you, through your own broker, at your own discretion.
It explains — and only explains. Detection and qualification are fully deterministic: the same conditions produce the same result on the same data, every time. Once a setup has qualified, the AI reads those deterministic facts and writes the analysis: what formed, what it means structurally, what would invalidate it and what to watch. It cannot create a setup, or promote one that failed the conditions. Its report does include a setup rating and a confidence read, but those are written after qualification and change nothing about it — no rating can push a setup through the conditions, or hold one back that met them. Its output is also checked before it is stored — a price outside the real geometry, or an observation not present in the facts, is rejected rather than shown.
A candidate is an instrument or setup that has passed the scanner's initial conditions and been selected for further qualification. It is a shortlist entry, not a conclusion — and it is never a recommendation to trade. Some candidates never qualify. Some qualify and then fail. The word is deliberately unexciting because the thing it describes is deliberately unexciting: an item worth your attention next, nothing more.
It is the price at which the setup is demonstrably wrong. For a failed breakout it is the failure extreme — the furthest price reached beyond the level — taken unbuffered, because beyond that point the breakout did not actually fail. It is the same quantity a trader would call a stop, named for what it means structurally rather than for the order type you might use to act on it. It is always shown before the outcome, never after. In simple words, it is what most traders would call the Stop Loss.
It is the nearest opposing structural level — a real price the market has previously reacted to, in the direction the setup travels. It is deliberately not a multiple of risk: setting the target at, say, twice the risk would make the reward-to-risk figure true by construction and therefore meaningless. Because the target is a real level, a level sitting in the way simply becomes the target, and the reward shrinks honestly. In simple words, it is what most traders would call the Take Profit.
Equities, index derivatives, commodities, forex and crypto — over 300 instruments across those markets, on the venues listed in the coverage section. Three timeframes are scanned, each mapped to a trading style: 5m for intraday, 1h for swing and 1d for positional. Forex majors and minors and major crypto pairs are covered on the same three timeframes.
The structural thesis is the same everywhere — a level, a break, a rejection, in that order. What differs is the context it is read in: liquidity, volatility, session length and contract mechanics are not the same for an index derivative, a mid-cap equity and an MCX commodity contract, and a reading that ignored those differences would be convenient rather than correct.
You define the risk value for a single idea. The evaluation takes the entry and the invalidation level, derives the risk per unit from the distance between them, applies the instrument's lot or contract specification where one exists, and shows the resulting suggested quantity — lots for derivatives and commodities, shares for equities. It is arithmetic on values you supply, shown step by step. It is not risk control, not a recommended size, and it cannot prevent a loss larger than the figure you entered.
The study of what price is actually doing — market structure, levels, breaks, rejections, continuation and failure — read directly from price and its context, rather than inferred from an indicator calculated on that same price. The full thesis, the concepts it works with and its limits are set out on the price action page, which also distinguishes general price action education from what this scanner implements.
A screener filters on values — price above a moving average, RSI below a threshold, volume above an average. It has no concept of sequence. This evaluates an ordered structural sequence over time: a level must be established, then broken, then rejected, in that order, against defined conditions. A screener can tell you where price is. It cannot tell you what price did, and it does not hand you an invalidation level.
Traders who already trade and already know what a level, an invalidation and a lot are. A newer trader can learn from the explanation attached to each setup, but the product does not teach you to trade and decides nothing on your behalf. An experienced trader gets the part that does not scale by hand: consistent evaluation across the universe, on every candle close, without the standard drifting by the second hour.
The next failure is already forming.
Somewhere across the universe a level is being tested right now. You can find it by hand, or you can be told — with the invalidation already marked.
