Advanced Orderblocks

🔍 Order Block Types

MarketSync Elite identifies two types of order blocks:

  • Bullish Order Blocks: Areas where significant buying has occurred, typically shown in green. These often act as support when price returns to them.

  • Bearish Order Blocks: Areas where significant selling has occurred, typically shown in red. These often act as resistance when price returns to them.

⚙️ Order Block Settings

  • Line Width: Adjust thickness of order block lines (1–4)

  • Line Style: Choose between solid, dashed, or dotted lines

🧠 Mitigation Settings

  • Mitigation Method: Choose how order blocks are considered "mitigated" (when price returns to and invalidates them)

    • Touch: When price touches the level

🛠️ Practical Application

Order blocks are powerful support and resistance areas that often lead to price reactions. They serve several purposes:

  • Entry points: Look for bullish order blocks during uptrends for potential long entries

  • Exit points: Use bearish order blocks as potential take-profit areas

  • Stop-loss placement: Place stops beyond order blocks for protection

  • Trend confirmation: Multiple bullish order blocks suggest strong buying interest
