Order Blocks (SMC/ICT)

Order Blocks (SMC/ICT) — TradingATH

Precision. Intent. Structure.

This refined tool automatically detects and displays Order Blocks (OBs) with clean, institutional clarity—mapping the exact zones where displacement originated and where price is most likely to rebalance or react. Built for SMC/ICT Traders, it presents bullish and bearish OBs with disciplined visuals, mitigation logic, and efficient performance on any timeframe.

What You’ll See

• Bullish Order Blocks in balanced green shading with a mid-line, borders, and a compact label.
  
• Bearish Order Blocks in refined red tones, equally annotated and visually consistent.
  
• Controlled Extension of zones for a chosen number of bars—or dynamic extension until mitigation.
  
• Configurable Labels with selectable position (Top/Bottom, Left/Right) and custom label font color per side.
  
• Mid-Line (Average) through each OB for precise reference and execution alignment.
  

Features

• Volume Pivot Logic: OBs are derived from a volume pivot length, focusing on zones that matter where displacement had participation.
  
• Mitigation Methods: Validate via Wick or Close, adapting to different liquidity conditions and your SMC playbook.
  
• ATR Size Filter: Enforce minimum/maximum size (×ATR) to remove insignificant zones and retain only the highest-quality blocks.
  
• Extend-Until-Mitigated: Keep active zones projected into future bars until price mitigates—ensuring they remain actionable.
  
• Clean Plotting: Size-safe arrays, time-anchored boxes/lines, and efficient updates for smooth operation in intraday and swing contexts.
  
• Alert Suite:
  
• OB Formed: Bullish/Bearish OB creation.
  
• OB Mitigated: Zone filled/invalidated.
  
• Price Entered OB: Live notification when price re-enters the most recent OB.
