One of the simplest ways I analyze a downtrend is by focusing on market structure. When price consistently forms lower highs and lower lows, it provides a framework for understanding the market's direction instead of relying on emotions or guesswork.

In this video, I break down how I identify a healthy downtrend and why I wait for the market to confirm the trend before looking for selling opportunities.

Topics covered:

• 📉 Identifying lower highs and lower lows
• 📊 Reading bearish market structure with confidence
• 🎯 Waiting for trend confirmation before selling
• 🛡 Avoiding trades that go against the prevailing trend

A clear understanding of market structure can help you stay patient, avoid chasing price, and focus on higher-probability setups.

Question for the community:

What's the biggest mistake you see traders make when trying to identify a downtrend? Do they enter too early, ignore market structure, or rely too heavily on indicators?
