AIMS Box: Market Structure & Range Breakout
AIMS Box supplies structural boundaries and setup information. Read the completed candle against the relevant boundary, then check the Box state and filters before interpreting the combined Confluence assessment.
What You See on the Chart
The designed lesson separates a wick crossing a supplied boundary from a close beyond it. It does not reproduce fractal detection, Setup 1 qualification, filters or target calculations.
AIMS Box · boundary-reading schematic
Box: distinguish a wick from a close
- Upper boundary: 58
- Lower boundary: 48
- Supplied range: 48–58
Review context: Read the supplied boundary, completed close and product filters separately. No profit outcome is shown.
What was known
- After candle 4: Four completed candles and supplied boundaries 48 and 58 are available. No later break is known.
- After candle 5: The fifth candle reaches 62 but closes at 56, inside the supplied range.
- After candle 6: The sixth candle closes at 63, above 58. Geometry alone does not establish an eligible signal.
- After candle 7: Read the supplied boundary, completed close and product filters separately. No profit outcome is shown.
Candles: blue closes at or above the open; red closes below the open.
Read the supplied boundary, completed close and product filters separately. No profit outcome is shown.
A close beyond a boundary is different from a wick crossing it. Box lifecycle, filters and the combined assessment remain separate checks.

How to read the structure
- Identify the relevant upper and lower Box boundaries.
- Compare the completed candle's close with the boundary. A wick beyond the level is a different fact from a close beyond it.
- Read the Box tab's setup state and reason. A geometric break alone does not establish an eligible setup.
- Read Wave, Bubble, Banana and the combined assessment separately. Review your plan and risk before any decision.
A confirmed close can still be followed by a failed breakout. No chart marker guarantees continuation.
Visual Chart Elements
- Setup box: the supplied structural range.
- Boundary levels: references for reviewing completed price movement.
- Setup state and filter reasons: eligibility information, distinct from the visible geometry.
- Plan levels, where available: read the product's actual displayed values. This lesson does not substitute a fixed 2R line for the suite's trade plan.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why did a candle pierce the box level without confirmation?
A wick can cross a boundary while the close remains inside. Check the completed close and the product's actual setup/filter state; this illustration does not generate alerts.
Does a closed break guarantee a successful trade?
No. A close is a price fact, not a probability or outcome. Structure, context and risk remain separate checks.
