How SENSEX is measured
Zone Terminal tracks SENSEX on finished 5-minute candles. A Break of Structure needs a candle to close beyond a confirmed swing level; the last opposing candle before that move becomes the Order Block, kept only when a Fair Value Gap or a strong displacement confirms it. From there the terminal derives the zone (Z), the invalidation level and the next untouched liquidity pools.
This page describes measurements only. It is not a recommendation to trade SENSEX or any derivative on it.
