ICT Order Blocks v2 (Debug) ICT Breaker Blocks v2 (Break Refined) Indicator Explanation
This document provides a comprehensive overview of the ICT Breaker Blocks v2 (Break Refined) indicator, which is designed to identify and visualize Breaker Blocks in trading. A Breaker Block represents a prior Order Block that has failed to hold price, indicating potential institutional support or resistance levels. The indicator highlights these flipped zones, allowing traders to anticipate future price reactions based on previous market behavior.
Purpose
The primary purpose of the ICT Breaker Blocks v2 indicator is to identify Breaker Blocks, which are crucial for understanding market dynamics. When price decisively breaks through an Order Block, it can change its role from support to resistance or vice versa. This indicator helps traders visualize these changes, providing insights into potential areas for price reactions.
How it Works
The indicator operates through a series of steps on each bar:
1. Identify Potential Order Blocks (OBs)
The indicator continuously searches for the most recent potential Order Blocks based on basic price action:
Potential Bullish OB: The last down-closing candle before an upward move that breaks its high.
Potential Bearish OB: The last up-closing candle before a downward move that breaks its low.
It retains the price range (high/low) and location of the most recent potential OB of each type.
2. Detect the "Break" of a Potential OB
A Breaker is confirmed when the price fails to respect a potential OB and moves decisively through it. The indicator checks:
If the current price closes above the high of the stored potential Bearish OB.
If the current price closes below the low of the stored potential Bullish OB.
3. Apply Displacement Filter (Optional)
To enhance the accuracy of break detection, traders can enable the "Require Displacement on Break?" filter in the settings. This filter adds a condition that the candle causing the break must have a larger body size than the preceding candle, indicating stronger momentum.
4. Store the Active Breaker Block
When a valid break occurs (and passes the displacement filter if active):
A Bullish Breaker (+BB) is confirmed if a potential Bearish OB is broken to the upside, storing the high/low price range of that original Bearish OB.
A Bearish Breaker (-BB) is confirmed if a potential Bullish OB is broken to the downside, storing the high/low price range of that original Bullish OB.
The indicator tracks only the most recent valid, unmitigated Breaker Block of each type, replacing the previous one when a new one forms.
5. Mitigation (Invalidation)
The indicator checks if the currently displayed Breaker zone has been invalidated by subsequent price action. The mitigation rules are as follows:
A Bullish Breaker is considered mitigated and removed if the price later closes below its low.
A Bearish Breaker is considered mitigated and removed if the price later closes above its high.
Visualization
For the currently active, unmitigated Breaker Block of each type (if enabled in settings):
A box is drawn representing the price zone (high/low) of the original Order Block that was broken.
The box starts from the bar where the break was confirmed.
If "Extend Breaker Boxes?" is enabled, the box extends to the right edge of the chart until the Breaker is mitigated.
A small label ("+BB" or "-BB") is added to the box, with colors and border styles configurable in the settings.
This indicator automates the identification of significant "flipped" zones, allowing traders to incorporate Breaker Blocks into their ICT analysis effectively. It is essential to evaluate the indicator's effectiveness on your chosen market and timeframe and consider using the displacement filter to refine the signals.
OB
MTF OB Supply Demand ZonesHello everyone,
This exceptional indicator provides you with visual representations of bullish and bearish order blocks or supply and demand zones across multiple timeframes. In simple terms, bullish order blocks are represented by a small red candle followed by a large red candle, while bearish order blocks are depicted as a small green candle followed by a large red candle. Supply and demand zones are drawn by using order blocks.
Features:
Display order blocks from up to three different timeframes.
Customize the maximum number of boxes shown and the colors of the zones.
Choose from three different modes: OB (Order Block), Extended OB, and Supply/Demand.
Mode Descriptions:
OB: Includes the body of the candle.
Extended OB: Encompasses the body and wick of the candle.
Supply/Demand: Covers the body, wick, and half the body of the large candle.
Usage:
Ensure that charts 2 and 3 are set to a higher timeframe. For modes 2 and 3, it’s recommended to reduce the maximum number of boxes shown. The zones or boxes are transparent, allowing for overlap. This feature aids in identifying reversal zones or confirmed zones. The more intense the color, the stronger the confirmation. If a green zone overlaps a red zone (or vice versa), it signifies a reversal zone.
Thank you for checking out this indicator!

Additional Information:
Order blocks refer to specific price areas where large market participants, such as institutional traders, have previously placed significant buy or sell orders. These clusters of orders can impact price movement, liquidity, and market sentiment.
Order blocks are a strategic approach to identifying key levels of support and resistance based on the behavior of institutional traders. These key levels are then utilized as entry or exit points for trades.
An order block is an area where there has been a large concentration of limit orders awaiting execution. These blocks are identified on a chart by observing previous price action and pinpointing areas where the price experienced significant movement or abrupt changes in direction.
Order blocks are used in the following popular trading philosophies:

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. :)
[FrizLabz]FVG Bar
For those of you that like to keep your charts nice and tidy for your Technical Analysis!
FVG = Fair Value Gap
Fair Value Gaps are when impulse movements create an imbalance in price leaving unfilled orders.. they are popular because after one is created we often observe price return to fill these unfilled orders
3 candles make a FVG
When the high/low of most recent candle is lower/high than the low/high of the bar before last
Similar to my other FVG indicator but this one allows you to delete Filled FVGs and have them adjust when filled
Uses a line whose x1 and x2 are on the FVG bar and adjust the size of the FVG with line width because line width on line.new()s doesnt have a cap on line width like plot()s do
Not much too it I made this because a few people were asking if they could delete the FVG after it was Mitigated and since my other uses plots it wasnt possible
so I hope this works for those who were asking about it
hope you enjoy please let me know if you have an idea or find a bug,
Thank You! -
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.
Ehlers Adaptive Commodity Channel Index V1 [CC]The Adaptive Commodity Channel Index V1 was created by John Ehlers (Rocket Science For Traders pgs 236-237) and this is the typical Commodity Channel formula with the introduction of adaptive lengths based on his earlier work with indicators such as the Mother of Adaptive Moving Averages. For longer term signals you would get a bullish signal when CCI is above 0 and a bearish signal when CCI falls below 0. For shorter term signals you would get a bullish signal when crosses over it's overbought level or when it crosses above it's oversold level or vice versa. I have included both signals to make it easier.
