market-structure
Read and analyze market structure for any trading instrument like a professional trader. Use when the user shares a chart, price data, or asks for a market structure analysis. Covers trend identification, swing highs/lows, Break of Structure (BOS), Change of Character (CHoCH), liquidity zones, order blocks, Fair Value Gaps (FVG), and bias direction.
Why use this skill?
Analyze market structure like a pro with OpenClaw. Identify trends, order blocks, BOS, and liquidity zones using professional SMC and ICT trading methods.
Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/dromlakhani/market-structureWhat This Skill Does
The market-structure skill transforms your AI agent into a professional technical analyst specializing in Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and ICT methodology. It provides a structured, multi-layer framework to evaluate price action, identify institutional footprints, and determine the high-probability direction of the market. By processing chart data through its five-layer core framework—covering trend identification, swing points, BOS/CHoCH signals, and liquidity zones—it helps traders avoid retail traps and align with institutional order flow.
Installation
You can install this skill directly via the OpenClaw CLI:
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/dromlakhani/market-structure
Ensure your agent has access to chart images or historical price data pipelines to maximize the utility of the analysis.
Use Cases
This skill is ideal for professional and retail traders who require objective, data-backed analysis. Use it to:
- Analyze daily, 4-hour, and 1-hour charts to establish a macro bias.
- Identify potential reversal points via Change of Character (CHoCH) alerts.
- Pinpoint high-probability entries using Order Blocks (OB) and Fair Value Gaps (FVG).
- Detect liquidity pools (EQH/EQL) that institutions are likely to target before price movement.
- Validate trading setups by confirming trend-following Break of Structure (BOS) signals.
Example Prompts
- "Analyze this 4H chart of BTC/USD. Identify the current trend, mark the latest BOS, and point out any unmitigated order blocks."
- "Look at the EUR/USD price action over the last week. Has the trend changed? Please highlight any recent CHoCH levels or liquidity sweeps."
- "Where are the key liquidity pools on this chart? I see equal highs building up—should I expect a sweep before a reversal?"
Tips & Limitations
- Hierarchy Matters: Always analyze your macro bias on a higher timeframe before attempting to trade lower-timeframe structure. Skipping this step often leads to trading against the institutional trend.
- Context is King: A CHoCH is only valid if it occurs at a significant area of interest, such as a major support or resistance level or a liquidity sweep.
- Not Financial Advice: This skill provides objective technical analysis based on SMC/ICT methodology. It is a decision-support tool, not a financial advisor. Always manage your risk properly, as market structure analysis can be invalidated by sudden fundamental news events.
