FX🏛️ ICT ORDER BLOCK (OB) MODEL 🎯
"Don't trade the candle; trade the institutional intent. 🏦✨"
In the ICT methodology, an Order Block is not just any "supply or demand" zone. It is a specific price level where Smart Money has deliberately placed massive orders to change the state of price delivery. It is the true "footprint" of the 1%.
The ICT Validation Blueprint:
The Context: Price must first raid a key level of Liquidity (Old High or Old Low) to collect the "fuel" needed for the move.
The Displacement: A violent move away from the candle, creating a Market Structure Shift (MSS). This proves the big players are now in control.
The FVG Anchor:
A high-probability ICT OB is almost always accompanied by a Fair Value Gap (FVG) immediately after it. This signifies urgency.
Mean Threshold: For ultimate precision, look for price to respect the Open or the 50% (Mean Threshold) of the OB candle. If price closes past the 50% level, the OB is likely "invalid."
