Order Blocks

WHAT IS THE ORDER BLOCK IN FOREX? 

Order blocks are special kinds of supply and demand zones formed when there is a block order.

***Banks use special orders for buying, selling, taking profit, and closing the orders. When banks want to open a position with volume, they do not randomly place a position to upset the price and trigger their order at a worse price that may result in lowering their profit.

***For that purpose, they try to split their positions into small and manageable blocks using order blocks.

Bullish and Bearish Order Block

Bullish order block

A bearish bar or candle is formed before an upward move takes place. It results in breaking the structure and making a new high or higher high. Such a structure is anticipated to render support to the price.

Bearish order block

A bullish bar or candle is formed before a downward move takes place. It results in breaking the structure and making a new low or lower low. Such a structure is anticipated to render resistance to the price.

How do you draw an order block?

For drawing a bearish order block, simply mark the high of the rally and the recent swing low and draw a rectangle around it. Now extend the rectangle to the right into an empty area of the chart where price will act or react in the near future.
