Order Blocks Finder [TradingFinder] Major OB | Supply and Demand🔵 Introduction
Drawing all order blocks on the path, especially in range-bound or channeling markets, fills the chart with lines, making it confusing rather than providing the trader with the best entry and exit points.
🔵 Reason for Indicator Creation
For traders familiar with market structure and only need to know the main accumulation points (best entry or exit points), and primary order blocks that act as strong sources of power.
🟣 Important Note
All order blocks, both ascending and descending, are identified and displayed on the chart when the structure of "BOS" or "CHOCH" is broken, which can also be identified with "MSS."
🔵 How to Use
When the indicator is installed, it plots all order blocks (active order blocks) and continues until the price reaches them. This continuation happens in boxes to have a better view in the TradingView chart.
Green Range : Ascending order blocks where we expect a price increase in these areas.
Red Range : Descending order blocks where we expect a price decrease in these areas.
🔵 Settings
Order block refine setting : When Order block refine is off, the supply and demand zones are the entire length of the order block (Low to High) in their standard state and cannot be improved. If you turn on Order block refine, supply and demand zones will improve using the error correction algorithm.
Refine type setting : Improving order blocks using the error correction algorithm can be done in two ways: Defensive and Aggressive. In the Aggressive method, the largest possible range is considered for order blocks.
🟣 Important
The main advantage of the Aggressive method is minimizing the loss of stops, but due to the widening of the supply or demand zone, the reward-to-risk ratio decreases significantly. The Aggressive method is suitable for individuals who take high-risk trades.
In the Defensive method, the range of order blocks is minimized to their standard state. In this case, fewer stops are triggered, and the reward-to-risk ratio is maximized in its optimal state. It is recommended for individuals who trade with low risk.
Show high level setting : If you want to display major high levels, set show high level to Yes.
Show low level setting : If you want to display major low levels, set show low level to Yes.
🔵 How to Use
The general view of this indicator is as follows.
When the price approaches the range, wait for the price reaction to confirm it, such as a pin bar or divergence.
If the price passes with a strong candle (spike), especially after a long-range or at the beginning of sessions, a powerful event is happening, and it is outside the credibility level.
An Example of a Valid Zone
An Example of Breakout and Invalid Zone. (My suggestion is not to use pending orders, especially when the market is highly volatile or before and after news.)
After reaching this zone, expect the price to move by at least the minimum candle that confirmed it or a price ceiling or floor.
🟣 Important : These factors can be more accurately measured with other trend finder indicators provided.
🔵 Auxiliary Tools
There is much talk about not using trend lines, candlesticks, Fibonacci, etc., in the web space. However, our suggestion is to create and use tools that can help you profit from this market.
• Fibonacci Retracement
• Trading Sessions
• Candlesticks
🔵 Advantages
• Plotting main OBs without additional lines;
• Suitable for timeframes M1, M5, M15, H1, and H4;
• Effective in Tokyo, Sydney, and London sessions;
• Plotting the main ceiling and floor to help identify the trend.
Orderblock
Implied Orderblock Breaker (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Implied Order Block Breaker (Zeiierman) is a tool designed to identify enhanced order blocks with imbalances. These enhanced order blocks represent areas where there is a rapid price movement. Essentially, this indicator uses order blocks and suggests that a swift price movement away from these levels, breaking the current market structure, could indicate an area that the market has not correctly valued. This technique offers traders a unique method to identify potential market inefficiencies and imbalances, serving as a guide for potential price revisits.
The indicator doesn't scan for imbalances in the traditional sense — where there's an absence of trades between two price levels — but instead, it identifies quick movements away from key levels that suggest where an imbalance might exist. Relying on crossovers and cross-unders in conjunction with pivot points and examining the high/low within the same period provides an innovative method for traders to spot these potentially undervalued or overvalued areas in the market. These inferred imbalances can be crucial for traders looking for price levels where the market might make significant moves.
█ How It Works
Bullish
Crossover: The closing price of a bar crosses above a pivot high, which is an indication that buyers are in control and pushing the price upwards.
New Low Within Period: There is a lower low within the same period as the pivot high. This suggests that after setting a high, the market pulled back to set a new low, potentially leaving a price gap on the way up as the price quickly recovers.
Bearish
Crossunder: The closing price of a bar crosses under a pivot low, indicating that sellers are taking control and driving the price down.
New High Within Period: There is a higher high within the same period as the pivot low. This condition suggests that the market rallied to a new high before falling back below the pivot low, potentially leaving a gap on the way down.
█ How to Use
The enhanced order blocks are often revisited, and the price may aim to 'fill' the potential imbalance created by the rapid price movement, thereby presenting traders with potential entry or exit points. This approach aligns with the idea that imbalances are frequently revisited by the market, and when combined with the context of Order Blocks, it provides even more confluence.
Example
Here, if the price drops rapidly after setting a new high—crossing under the pivot low—it may skip over certain price levels, creating a 'gap' that signifies an area where the price might have been overvalued (imbalance), which the market may revisit for a potential price correction or revaluation.
█ Settings
Period: Determines the number of bars used for identifying pivot highs and lows. A higher value gives more significant but less frequent signals, while a lower value increases sensitivity but might give more false positives.
Pivot Surrounding: Specifies the number of candles to analyze around a pivot point. Increasing this value broadens the analysis range, potentially capturing more setups but possibly including less significant ones.

Order Blocks | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Volumized Order Blocks indicator! This new indicator can render order blocks with their volumetric information. It's highly customizable with detection, invalidation and style settings.
Features of the new Volumized Order Blocks indicator :
Render Bullish & Bearish Order Blocks
Enable / Disable Volumetric Information
Enable / Disable Historic Zones
Visual Customizability
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Order blocks occur when there is a high amount of market orders exist on a price range. It is possible to find order blocks using specific formations on the chart.
The high & low volume of order blocks should be taken into consideration while determining their strengths. The determination of the high & low volume of order blocks are similar to FVGs, in a bullish order block, the high volume is the last 2 bars' total volume, while the low volume is the oldest bar's volume. In a bearish order block scenario, the low volume becomes the last 2 bars' total volume.
🚩UNIQUENESS
The ability to render the total volume of Order Blocks as well as bullish / bearish volume ratio is what sets this Order Block indicator apart from others. Also the ability to combine overlapping Order Block zones will result in cleaner charts for traders.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Volumetric Info -> The volumetric information of the Order Blocks will be rendered if activated.
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Order Block Invalidation.

Breaker Blocks | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Volumized Breaker Blocks indicator! This new indicator can render breaker blocks with their volumetric information. It's highly customizable with detection, invalidation and style settings.
Features of the new Volumized Breaker Block indicator :
Render Bullish & Bearish Breaker Blocks
Enable / Disable Volumetric Information
Enable / Disable Historic Zones
Visual Customizability
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Breaker blocks form when an order block fails, or "breaks". It is often associated with market going in the opposite direction of the broken order block, and they can be spotted by following order blocks and finding the point they get broken, ie. price goes below a bullish order block.
The volume of a breaker block is simply the total volume of the bar that the original order block is broken.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator can not only detect breaker blocks, but it can also detect them with their volumetric information. Volumetric information can be crucial when considering an breaker block's strength, which can be a crucial form of confluence in certain trading strategies.
⚙️SETTINGS

Order Blocks W/ Realtime Fibs [QuantVue]The "Order Blocks W/ Realtime Fibs" indicator is a comprehensive tool combining the concepts of order blocks with Fibonacci retracement. The combination can be a powerful tool for identifying entry and exit points, and potential target areas.
Order blocks indicate where major players have likely placed their orders, while Fibonacci levels provide a mathematical basis for potential support and resistance areas.
What is an Order Block?
An order block in trading refers to an area on the chart in which it is believed a substantial number of orders (buy or sell) collected over a short period. Typically, these are identified as a range of consecutive aggressive bullish or bearish bars (candles). They represent areas where significant market players have entered the market, creating a footprint of their activity.
The indicator is highly customizable allowing user to select the number of consecutive bars and minimum price movement required for an order block, along with other settings like requiring a new order block in the opposite direction before finding a new order block.
Fibonacci Retracements
Fibonacci retracements are popular among technical traders, based on the idea that markets often retrace a predictable portion of a move, after which they continue to move in the original direction.
Once an Order Block is detected the indicator will automatically draw Fibonacci levels and continue to update those levels in real time until the user selected retracement level has been hit or a new more relevant order block has been found.
The combination of order blocks and Fibonacci retracements in this indicator can be used as a method for spotting potential reversal zones.
Indicator features:
🔹Custom Order Block Parameters
🔹Mitigation Type
🔹Custom Colors
🔹Select Retracement Levels
🔹Alerts for Order Blocks & Retracements

OrderBlock [kyleAlgo]The principle of this indicator
ATR (Average True Range) Setting: The code uses ATR to help calculate the Supertrend indicator.
Supertrend Trend Direction: Identify bullish and bearish trends with the Supertrend method.
Order Block Recognition: This part of the code recognizes and creates order blocks, visualizing them as boxes on the chart. If the number of blocks exceeds the maximum limit, old blocks will be deleted.
Function to prevent overlapping: check whether the new order block overlaps with the existing order block through the isOverlapping function.
Order block color setting: The code sets the color according to whether the block is bullish or bearish, and whether it breaks above or below. Afterwards the color of the existing order blocks will be updated.
Sensitivity settings: Through the input settings of factor and atrPeriod, the sensitivity of Supertrend and the detection of order blocks can be affected.
Visualization: Use TradingView's box.new function to draw and visualize order blocks on the chart.
Practicality:
Support and Resistance Levels: Order blocks may represent areas of support and resistance in the market. By visualizing these areas, traders can better understand when price reversals are likely to occur.
Trading Signals: Traders may be able to identify trading signals based on the color changes of blocks and price breakouts. For example, if the price breaks above a bullish block, this could be a signal to buy.
Risk Management: By using ATR to adjust the sensitivity of Supertrend, the symbol helps traders to adjust their strategies according to market volatility. This can be used as a risk management tool to help identify stop loss and take profit points.
Multi-timeframe analysis: Although the code itself does not implement multi-timeframe analysis directly, it can be done by applying this indicator on different timeframes. This helps to analyze the market from different angles.
Flexibility and Customization: Through sensitivity settings, traders can customize the indicator according to their needs and trading style.
Reduced screen clutter: By removing overlapping order blocks and limiting the maximum number of order blocks, this code helps reduce clutter on charts, allowing traders to analyze the market more clearly.
Overall, this "Pine Script" can be a powerful analytical tool for trend traders and those looking to improve their trading decisions by visualizing key market areas. It can be used alone or combined with other indicators and trading systems for enhanced functionality.
TradeMaster ProTrading effectively requires a range of techniques, experience, and expertise. From technical analysis to market fundamentals, traders must navigate multiple factors, including market sentiment and economic conditions. However, traders often find themselves overwhelmed by market noise, making it challenging to filter out distractions and make informed decisions. To address this, we present a powerful indicator package designed to assist traders on their journey to success.
The TradeMaster indicator package encompasses a variety of trading strategies, including the SMC (Supply, Demand, and Price Action) approach, along with many other techniques. By leveraging concepts such as price action trading, support and resistance analysis, supply and demand dynamics, these indicators can empower traders to analyze entry and exit positions with precision. Unlike other forms of technical analysis that produce values or plots based on historical price data, Price Action brings you the facts straight from the source - the current price movements.
The indicator package consists of three powerful indicators that can be used individually or together to maximize trading effectiveness.
⭐ About the Pro Indicator
The Pro indicator is the cornerstone of the package, offering a comprehensive range of functions. It's strength lies in our unique structure calculation, which is based on real price action data, capturing every ticks from small intraday fluctuations to the significant high timeframe movements. The Pro Indicator reflects our personal use and deep comprehension of Smart Money Concepts. It provides streamlined tools for tracking algorithmic trends with modern visualizations, without unnecessary clutter.
In the ever-evolving trading landscape, mainstream methods and strategies can quickly become outdated as they are widely adopted. Liquidity is constantly sought after, and the best source for this is exploring and exploiting trading strategies that are widely accepted and applied. Currently, one of these strategies is the SMC (Supply, Demand, and Price Action).
It's no coincidence that our educational materials incorporate concepts such as liquidity grabs (LG) and Smart Money Traps (SMT). As the application of SMC gains popularity among retail traders, trading with this approach becomes more challenging. Therefore, the recent focus has been on reforming the SMC methodology, as it is the only method that relies on real price movements and will always work when applied correctly.
▸ What does proper application of SMC entail?
Many SMC traders associate their key areas of interest with the market structure, which is generally considered acceptable. However, depending solely on a single foundation can lead to significant deviations, which may cause notable impacts on trading results. Moreover, if the basis for the market structure calculation is inaccurate, the consequences can be even more severe. It's akin to risking money on a lottery ticket, believing it will be a winner.
Our methodology is different, and it may ensure longevity in the financial markets. The structure remains crucial, but it is not the sole foundation of everything; instead, it serves as a validation tool. Each calculation, such as order blocks (OB), Fair Value Gaps (FVG), liquidity grabs (LG), range analysis, and more, is independent and unique, separate from the structure. However, validation must ultimately come from the structure itself.
We employ individual and high-quality filters: before a function calculation is validated by the structure, it must undergo rigorous testing based on its own set of validation conditions. This approach aims to enhance robustness and accuracy, providing traders with a reliable framework for making informed trading decisions.
▸ An example for structure validation: Order Block with "Swing Sensitivity"
These order blocks will only be displayed and utilized by the script if there is a swing structure validation with a valid break. In other words, the presence of a confirmed swing Change of Character (ChoCh) or Break of Structure (BoS) is essential for the Order Block to be considered valid and relevant.
This approach ensures that the order blocks are aligned with the overall market structure and are not based on isolated or unreliable price movements. Whether it's Fair Value Gaps (FVG), Liquidity Grabs (LG), Range calculations, or other functionalities, the same underlying principle holds true. The background structure calculation serves as a validation mechanism for the data and insights generated by these functions, ensuring they adhere to the specific criteria and rules established within our methodology. By incorporating this robust validation process, traders can have confidence in the reliability and accuracy of the information provided by the indicator, allowing them to make informed trading decisions based on validated data and analysis.
👉 Usage - the general approach:
Determine your trading style using the Pro Indicator and build your basic strategy. This indicator helps you understand your trading style, whether it's swing trading, scalping or another approach. By analyzing the Pro Indicator, you gain valuable information about potential market trends, entry and exit points, and overall market sentiment.
👉 Example of usage:
In the following chart, you'll notice how we've utilized the indicator to formulate a strategic trading approach. We've employed Order Blocks equipped with volume parameters to identify crucial market zones. Simultaneously, we've leveraged swing/internal market structures to gain insights into potential long and short-term market turnarounds. Lastly, we've examined trend line liquidity zones to pinpoint probable impulses and breakouts within ongoing trends.
Now we can see how the price descended to the order block with the highest volume, which we had previously marked as our point of interest for an entry. As the price closed below the median Order Block, we noted its mitigation. After an internal CHoCH, it's directing us towards the main Order Block as a target.
👉 Smart Money Concepts Functions
Market Structure: identifies and marks key structural changes in the market, in order to visually highlight shifts in market trends and patterns. This feature is designed to alert you of significant changes in the market's behavior, signaling a potential shift from accumulation to distribution phase, or vice versa. It helps traders adapt their strategies based on evolving market dynamics.
Order Blocks: pinpoints crucial zones where large institutional investors ("smart money") have shown strong buying or selling interest recently. Order blocks can serve as a tool for identifying key levels for potential trade entries or exits.
FVGs (Fair Value Gaps): detects discrepancies between the perceived market value and actual market price, revealing potential areas for price correction. With its mitigation settings, you can fine-tune the FVG detection according to the magnitude of value misalignment you consider significant.
Liquidity Grabs: helps track "smart money" footprints by identifying levels where large institutional traders may have induced liquidity traps. Understanding these traps can aid in avoiding false market moves and optimizing trade entries.
Automatic Fibonacci Tool: Simplifying the task of identifying key Fibonacci retracement and extension levels, this tool ties Fibonacci levels to the structure for you. It aids in recognizing significant support and resistance levels, providing a clearer understanding of potential price movements.
The Smart Money Concepts trading strategy - combined with these dynamic features - becomes a powerful analytical asset for any trader, providing in-depth insights into market dynamics, trends, and potential opportunities.
👉 Algorithmic trend and dynamic support and resistance
Trend Rainbow: This proprietary feature uses our unique TRMA** method to define short-term, medium-term, and long-term market trends. It incorporates state-of-the-art visualization techniques to render the trend information in an intuitive, easily interpretable manner. It's a 21st-century tool designed for the modern trader who values both precision and simplicity.
Multi-Timeframe Moving Averages: This feature allows traders to simultaneously monitor moving averages across multiple timeframes, providing a comprehensive perspective on market trends. It helps identify dynamic support and resistance zones, key levels where price movements are likely to slow down or reverse. This function not only aids in planning potential trade entries and exits, but also calculates the precise percentage distance to these levels. Can be as well crucial for risk management, enabling traders to set stop losses and profit targets based on solid, data-driven analysis. The Multi-Timeframe Moving Averages function is a versatile tool that combines strategic planning and risk control into a single, easy-to-use feature.
👉 Unlock the Hidden Market Dynamics
Market Sessions: This feature - by default - provides a clear representation of the four major global trading sessions. Each session is distinctly marked on your trading chart, helping you visualize the specific time periods when these markets are most active. Recognizing these sessions is critical for understanding market dynamics, as the opening and closing of major markets can lead to significant price movements. Whether you're a day trader looking to exploit intra-day volatility or a long-term investor wanting to understand broader market trends, the Market Sessions feature can be a useful tool in your trading toolkit.
Divergence Functions: allow the use of unique indicators along with our proprietary ones to detect potential price reversals. As each asset has a different market maker, divergences can vary greatly across different charts and timeframes. With our Divergence Ranking Table, you can quickly determine which divergences have the highest success rates and which are the least successful on a given chart. This feature allows you to adapt your strategies to the most effective signals, enhancing your trading decisions and boosting your potential profits.
Volume Profile with delta: This feature may give traders an edge by providing an in-depth view of market activity. It illustrates the amount of trading volume at different price levels, combined with the 'delta', which is the difference between buying and selling volume. This information allows you to see areas of high trading activity and understand whether the volume is pushing the price up or down. This real-time insight into the market's supply and demand can be instrumental in identifying key support and resistance levels, predicting potential reversals, and recognizing where the market is likely to move. Similarly to Fibonacci tool, Volume Profile can be tied to the current market structure.
👉 Improve Trading Decisions
Range: This innovative feature assists traders in determining discount, premium, and equilibrium zones. It provides a unique way of visualizing price areas where a security could be overbought or oversold (premium or discount zones), and where the price is expected to be fair and balanced (equilibrium zone). Distance from current price is displayed in percentage terms, which can assist traders with crucial data for risk management and strategic planning. The Range function helps you identify the most favorable price zones for entries and set your stop-loss and take-profit levels more accurately.
Previous OHLC: This functionality offers the capability to display the previous Open, High, Low, Close values. It is primarily set on the daily timeframe and serves as an important reference for traders. Having an overview of these key levels from the previous day gives you a solid foundation on which to base today's trading decisions. Recognizing these levels can help you predict potential turning points in the market, providing an advantage in your trading strategy.
Smart Money Zones: our secret weapon for swing traders. Similarly to order blocks, these zones can accurately identify crucial areas of strong buying or selling interest by large institutional investors. However while Order Blocks focus on recent price action, Smart Money Zones take the whole chart into consideration, resulting in more established support and demand zones.
The summary graph combines six unique indicators (Momentum, Trend Strength, Volume, Volatility, Asset Strength, and Sentiment) along with Structure and Sessions. These indicators use our TRMA** method to provide a comprehensive overview of market dynamics. By consolidating these indicators into a single graph, traders can gain valuable insights into the overall market landscape.
** TRMA (Trend Rainbow Moving Averages) is a complex but customizable moving average matrix calculation that is designed to measure market trend direction, strength and shifting.
⭐ Conclusion
We hold the view that the true path to success is the synergy between the trader and the tool, contrary to the common belief that the tool itself is the sole determinant of profitability. The actual scenario is more nuanced than such an oversimplification. Our aim is to offer useful features that meet the needs of the 21st century and that we actually use.

The algorithm operates on data from Options and Darkpool markets, which is first exported to Quandl DB and then imported to TradingView using an API. The indicator also identifies patterns based on volume, volatility, and market movements, increasing the number of identified institutional activities on the markets.
Order Blocks GenieThe purpose of this Genie Algorithm Indicator is to identify Zones of institutional interest , including Order Blocks , while marking the Full Range Zones as well, with powerful smart tracking algorithm to mark and remove the appropriate levels to take for entries.
Order Blocks can be observed at the beginning of a strong, aggressive move, leaving behind a zone to be revisited later for "balance" the market. Therefore, these are interesting levels to place Limit/Market orders (Sell the Peaks or Buy the Valleys).
A Bullish Order Block is the last Bearish candle of a downtrend before a sequence of Bullish candles (thus forming a "Valley"). While a Bearish Order Block is the last Bullish candle of an uptrend before a sequence of Bearish candles (thus forming a "Peak").
Prices of the levels could be printed on the Price Scale, as well as many detailed configurations of what activates these Peak/Valleys (Zones) such as a Breakout, Close, Hard Close or Full Close. See the Tooltips in the Settings for all details of each option.
The strategy is to take the Untested Levels as long as the chart is maintaining the trend (ladder), preferably going with the trend for a higher win rate (or against it for a quick scalp). Be mindful of the breaking of a ladder or building of a new one. A ladder breaks with a hard close of a candle across the closest two levels; a ladder builds by not breaking back down across the levels it has tested. Strong ladders will have a few untested levels and come back to wick them but still retain the structure of the laddering direction (trending with Lower Lows + Lower High or Higher Lows + Higher Highs).
------------
Definitions:
1st Zone: The zone between the start of the initial candle of the Full Range (backside edge) to the 50% of Full Range Line (Average, aka. Equilibrium).
2nd Zone: The zone between 50% of Full Range Line (Average, aka. Equilibrium) to the 50% of Order Block (final candle left behind in the range before the aggressive move out).
Full Zone: 1st + 2nd Zones together.
Line: placed first at 50% of Full Range, and in specific cases gets moved to the 50% of Order Block.
Rules (in order):
- Wick Line: Mark Line Tested (light color)
- Close Beyond the Zone: Invalidate Full Zone (Remove Full Zone + Remove Line)
- Hard Close anywhere inside the Zone: Invalidate Full Zone (Remove Full Zone + Remove Line)
- Close inside 2nd Zone: Invalidate Full Zone (Remove Full Zone + Remove Line)
- Close inside 1st Zone: Shrink 1st Zone + Keep 2nd Zone + Move Line to 50% of Order Block
- Wick inside (or beyond) 2nd Zone before shrinking: Shrink 1st Zone + Keep 2nd Zone + Move Line to 50% of Order Block
Order Blocks & Breaker Blocks [LuxAlgo]The Order Blocks & Breaker Blocks indicator detects order blocks that can be turned into breaker blocks on the chart automatically once mitigated.
Users can determine the amount of bullish and bearish order/breaker blocks that display on their chart from within the settings menu.
🔶 SETTINGS
Swing Lookback: Lookback period used for the detection of the swing points used to create order blocks.
Show Last Bullish OB: Number of the most recent bullish order/breaker blocks to display on the chart.
Show Last Bearish OB: Number of the most recent bearish order/breaker blocks to display on the chart.
Use Candle Body: Allows users to use candle bodies as order block areas instead of the full candle range.
🔹 Style
Show Historical Polarity Changes: Allows users to see labels indicating where a swing high/low previously occurred within a breaker block.
🔶 USAGE
We have published several scripts covering the detection of order blocks previously, however, the concept of breaker blocks was not yet introduced.
When price mitigates an order block, a breaker block is confirmed. We can eventually expect price to trade back to this breaker block offering a new trade opportunity.
We can see that this is similar to a change in polarity, where a support becomes a resistance after a breakout and vice versa.
This script highlights regular order blocks as solid extended areas on the chart and breaker blocks as dashed lines with dual-colored areas. The color change and dashed line starts at the location where the order block was mitigated.
Using a higher "Swing Lookback" setting will return longer term order/breaker blocks on the chart.
Users can optionally enable "Historical Polarity Changes" labels within the settings menu to see where breaker blocks might have provided an effective trade setup previously.
The "Historical Polarity Changes" setting is disabled by default & is most effective using replay mode as the labels are backpainted.
The order blocks & breaker blocks themselves can be used in real-time as they are detected based on the swing length & previous breaker blocks being mitigated.

Average Line Style: Line style of the average order block level.
Average Line Width: Line width of the average order block level.
Mitigation Methods: Method used to determine how an order block is mitigated. "Wick" will mitigate order blocks if the candle wick goes outside of the order block and "Close" will mitigate order blocks if the closing price goes outside of the order block.
Usage
It is common for more significant market participants to execute orders incrementally in order to avoid overwhelming the market and cause significant price movements. This practice allows the orders to be executed more efficiently and effectively, reducing the impact on the market and minimizing the potential for price volatility.
Order blocks are price areas where these orders are executed incrementally and are commonly used as areas of support/resistance for traders.
Bearish order blocks occur during a downtrend, while bullish order blocks occur in an uptrend. Bullish order blocks range from the price low to the median price, while bearish order blocks range from the median price to the price high. The median price is used as an equilibrium point.
Users can highlight the bars where an order block was detected from the style settings by toggling on the 'Bull OB' or 'Bear OB' selections.
Note that in order to confirm a peak Volume Pivot Length bars are needed, as such note that order blocks are shown retrospectively.
Candlestick OB FinderIntroduction
Hello, this here is a non-repainting candlestick indicator which is able to detect OB looking candlestick formations.
Usage
It can be used to confirm entries, but be aware that it produces a lot of false signals.
Somehow the swings tend to reverse at these points.
I recommend the 10–15 minutes timeframe.
I hope you enjoy this small indicator. :)

The TradingWolf Premium Smart Money Concept is a unique and enhanced selection of ideas designed to help give you an edge on the markets.
Within this one indicator you will have access to Fair Value Gap, Order Blocks, Break of Structure, Forecasting, Supply & Demand.
Below find each explanations on how to use each indicator
This script comes with the 'TradingWolf Premium' to get access, read the Author’s Instructions below.
There are extensive explanations on how to use this in our documentation on the website but we will give a simple overview here.
Order Blocks
There are several different ways people like to calculate order blocks, one of the ways we like is by using pivot points to identify levels of importance, from there we either highlight the highest/lowest closed candle or the wick. The user has the option to choose this in the settings.
As seen in the image above, you can see these levels are well respected and give people an opportunity to help where the market marker is placing their orders.
Fair Value Gaps
Fair value gaps can be a very useful concept in price action trading. They detect instances in which there are inefficiencies, or imbalances, in the market. In this case, we define imbalance as an instance in which buying and selling is not equal. This is often visualised as a large candle whose neighbouring candles’ wicks do not fully overlap the large candle. Below are a few examples of Fair Value Gap.
If price is in a downtrend and there is a fair value gap above, a trader might look to go short when that FVG fills. Inversely, if price is in an uptrend and there is a FVG below, a trader might look to go long when the FVG fills.
In this script we decided to highlight both types, one is simply marking up all technical FVGs which is the gap produced by the large candle, the other more commonly traded ones are market structure breaking ones.
These ones tend to be more respected so note they are highlighted in a separate colour to make them more visible.
If a FVG has been filled that box will dim away so it's not in your way.
ChoCh
‘Change of Character’ Hugely used by professional traders although they may not have heard of it called by this term. This is where price/market structure is trending in a certain direction but price starts to reverse.
This first happens when there is a break of structure, instead of another Lower High formed, price makes a Higher High like in the image above. This is where we highlight a break of structure or some people will just refer to this as the Choch line, once we have this we can look for an Order block / supply zone below to find an entry.
This is a hugely powerful tool dating back to one of the simplest and first concepts of trading where Market structure is King.
Peaks & Troughs
This tool helps you find potential reversal points in your support/resistance area, Simple candlestick patterns but incredibly powerful when used in confluence with our other tools.
FXC Order Block Finder █ OVERVIEW
The FXC Order Bock Finder finds and draws institutional order blocks according to the Smart Money Concept. Order blocks are zones where institutions have most likely left some orders that need to be filled at a later point in time. In These order blocks or POIs can be used to either place limit orders or to look for instant entries as price comes to retest the zone. It works on all time frames but higher time frames tend to be more precise.
█ HOW DOES IT WORK?
The indicator waits for a break of structure (BOS) and then prints a zone if there's an engulfing pattern and an open imbalance. Basically it draws zones where a fake move followed by aggressive buying or selling happened and Imbalances were left open.
█ WHAT MAKES IT UNIQUE?
Apart from the fact that I haven’t found any indicator that is able to properly draw order blocks most indicators do re-paint which doesn’t make any sense in the case of the Smart Money Concept.
Furthermore does this indicator have settings that let’s you adjust how the order blocks are drawn. From wick to end of the imbalance or candle close to imbalance. Also you can set how many candles it takes into consideration for the imbalance in case the imbalance starts after the engulfing pattern has formed. And you can set how many candles have to checked to determine a BOS or an internal BOS by using fractal breaks.
█ HOW TO USE IT?
Either place sell limits at the lower end of the order block with SL slightly above the OB and buy limits at the upper end of the OB with SL slightly below the OB. Target a fixed Risk Reward Ratio or trade it to the next order block. By using multi time frame analysis you can determine the overall direction of the market and prevent low probability trades. Also worth mentioning is that order blocks that have been created during high volume sessions tend to result in way better trades than with order blocks that have been printed during the Asia session.
█ ADDITIONAL INFO
As soon as price retested an order block the order block is mitigated and therefore not valid anymore. Also order blocks that are too far back in time are less probable to deliver good trades. In general the win rate tends not to be too high using this method but more often than not there's a reaction as price taps into an order block and trades with high RRR are quite often. As always in trading, proper money management and risk management is key.
█ DISCLAIMER
This is not financial advice. The Indicator spots these zones according to the smart money concept . However there's absolutely no guarantee that a nice order blocks results in a good trade.
█ Examples
Extreme Bars"Extreme Bars" is a simple but useful indicator that marks overbought and oversold candles. This indicator paints candles that fall far above the average red, and the candles that rise above the average green. Of course, they can change these colors if they want. "Extreme Bars" can be interpreted in many different ways. The starting points of colored candles can often be good support or resistance. In addition, it would be wise to close the positions opposite the colored candles and to maintain the positions compatible with the colored candles. It is also possible that the gaps formed by the colored candles will be closed in the future. The sensitivity of the indicator can be changed in the settings section.
Order Blocks Indicator By ForexBee V.1
What are Order Blocks:
Order blocks in forex refer to the collection of orders of big banks and institutions in forex trading. The big banks do not just open a buy/sell order but distribute a single order into a check of blocks to maximize the profit potential. These chunks of orders are called order blocks in trading.
Types of order blocks
Order blocks are categorized into two types in trading based on order types.
Bullish order block
Bearish order block
Bullish order block
When a bullish impulsive wave forms after the break of a ranging market structure or block, it indicates the formation of a bullish order block.
When the price returns to the order block zone, we’ll open buy orders to trade with institutions.
Bearish order block
When a bearish impulsive wave forms after the break of price range or block, a bearish order block forms. We’ll open sell orders from the bearish order block zone when the price returns to this zone in the future.
How to draw an order block zone in trading?
To draw an order block, you should first learn to identify the chart’s price range or price block.
In the next step, mark the highest point and the lowest point of the price range
Draw a horizontal zone meeting the high and low of the order block zone. This will act as an order block zone.
Smart Money BusterAfter daytrading for a while i came into conclusion that price action trading is the most successful way to trade for me and this project was for me to simplify my way of trading at the beginning. Eventually it got big and turned into a very useful helper indicator for me to setup on different pairs for alerts and only look at the charts to decide for entry when the alerts come from 120 different pairs that i set it up. Since i always looked at indicators for a way to make my job simpler and give me more time to do more important things for me rather than drawing lines on different pairs eveyday i think it got to a point where it works to my liking and making me gain time, thus more money.
This indicator uses smart money concepts like Market Structure, Order Blocks, Quassimodo Levels, Structure Breaks, Pumps and Dumps, Imbalances(In the works will be added in first update) to help trader catch what the whales are thinking and how to enter in the right time for swing trading, catching bottoms and tops.
Here are some of the features as of release:
Detects Market Structure and draws zig-zag lines and keeps note of pivot points.
Detects Order blocks and draws boxes when the conditions met
Detects the quassimodo levels and changes the color of the box to signal double confluence meaning stronger signal
Draws structure break lines
Setting to set structure break percentage before drawing boxes to get the boxes drawn if you want to be more 'sure' about the Order Block Levels.
Setting to change depth and backstep values for zigzags to be able to let you fit the system for different time frames.
Setting to set MSB trigger point between High and Low, Close and Open or hl2 values.
Setting to set Signal Triggering Range between Start, Middle and End meaning eg. if you set it to Middle it will wait for MSB trigger point to hit the middle of the box before giving you a signal.
Setting for changing HH-LL pivot points lookback count, 5 as default. Increasing this value will make you compare your pivot points with more data, really useful in lower time frames where will be a lot of zig-zags and highs and lows giving you a method to avoid false signals. Recommended to keep it lower values on 30 min and higher and increase it in lower Timeframes according to market volatility.
Setting to add a Box limit where the box of order block will be set invalid after certain candles and it still didn't trigger. Default value of 0 means it's disabled.
Setting to set Candle volatility percentage value to avoid big candles getting opposite signals on fast pump or dump schemes and bust those market makers schemes. Gotta say this came out really handy in crypto markets :)
As an end you can set alerts for 'Buy' , ' Sell ', ' Buy and Sell' together or if you wish you can connect it to bots via webhook as an entry. Although haven't connected to any bots myself as i think the best method of trading is human and machine working together. Since we have the creativity and out of the box thinking and machines have the ability to brute force calculation and huge bandwith that we don't currently have. At least until Elon Musk turns is into a cyborg, which i am not very eager about.
Planned Features:
- Add ability to detect imbalances(fair value gaps) to add third confluence to detect dragon fruit entries. This will make the system work with triple confluence.
- Add more settings so humans can command the ai better.
- Maybe a strategy version after i write my own dynamic take profit algorithm to give system ability make quantitative decisions based on current position profit levels.
- Although i think i fixed almost all the important bugs if there ever comes up one bugs will take priority for updates.
- And some things i may decide to add later. I will keep working on this project since it works well for me.
And like always, happy trading.
Market Structure Break & Order Block by EmreKbThis indicator shows the market structure break (msb) and order blocks (ob). Msb occurs after the breakout old high when the price make lower lows or occurs after the breakout old low when the price make higher highs. OB occurs after the msb, ob is the last bullish candle before high if msb is bearish but if the msb is bullish then ob is the last bearish candle before low.
Zigzag Lenght - A number for the zigzag calculation
Show Zigzag - Show/Hide Zigzag lines
Fib Factor - Fib level for the breakout confirmation. For example if new high larger than old high to low fib 1+fib_factor when the down trend then it's a breakout.
Supply and Demand - Order Block - Energy CandlesSupply and Demand - Order Block - Energy Candles
Description
An experimental script, designed as a visual aid, to highlight the last up or down candle before a fractal break. We can assume these candles where the point of origin that generated enough strength to break recent structure. By using them as reference points, traders are expected to follow their own set of rules and mark higher probability supply and demand zones in the area.
How to use:
Expect a potential retest in these areas, and if they fail, a potential retest in the opposite direction. The greater the number of times a zone is tested, the more likely it is to break. A fresh zone that has not yet been tested will have a higher probability of a bounce.
Fractal period and candle break type can be personalised in settings. Can be used on all timeframes (higher the better).
Indicator in use:
Extras:
An option to flip candle colours if current price is above or below them has been added.
Order Flow Analysis - MultiThis version of Order Flow Analysis tracks delta for six symbols.
The first ticker is the same symbol as the chart. Other tickers, the number of delta bars, location, font sizes and colors can be configured in settings. This also identifies top tick volume and lists in each bar.
Please do not refresh the browser or else values may be reset. Also, ignore the first delta bar values.
Auto Order Block by D. BrigagliaThis indicator finds trend following engulfings, and draws order blocks based on the 1st candle's range (the first candle of the engulfing pattern).
It does filter the trend with simple moving averages of 21 and 55 periods, but it doesn't filter for retracements in the trend (you should consider only the order blocks that are coming from engulfings after a retracement)
Makuchaku's Trade Tools - Order BlocksOrder blocks are a 2 candlestick pattern
Bullish order block : down candle getting engulfed by an up candle
Bearish order block : up candle getting engulfed by a down candle
