Order Blocks

What Order Blocks show

Order Blocks highlight price zones where volume clusters. They help you spot likely support/resistance and decision points. They also work well as TP/SL reference areas.

Order Blocks on chart

Strength levels (Soft / High / Loud)

Order Blocks are grouped into three strength levels. Higher strength blocks are usually more meaningful.

Soft

Lowest strength. More frequent. Best used as minor, “in-the-noise” levels.

High

Mid strength. Good default for most setups. Often respected during normal market conditions.

Loud

Highest strength. Less frequent. Best used for bias and key levels.

If the chart feels cluttered, start with High + Loud only.

How to read an Order Block

Each block can show two metrics. They answer different questions.

Relative % of Volume

This is a normalized share of volume across the blocks shown. The values add up to 100%. Higher % means the block stands out versus others.

Data + Volume

This is the raw volume value contributing to that block.

Block metrics, bullish vs bearish split, and volume delta

The green/red bar shows the bullish vs bearish volume split. The Δ (delta) is the difference between bullish and bearish volume.

Since Pine Script can’t access order book data, Order Blocks are inferred from volume analysis.

Quick workflow

1

Pick a clean starting view

Set Max OBs (defaults to 4) to control how many blocks are visible. Fewer blocks means less noise.

2

Choose the generation style (Dynamics)

Use Original for more “natural,” lightly filtered blocks. Use Attuned for cleaner spacing and more uniform blocks.

3

Use multi-timeframe blocks when you want stronger levels

Enable MTF Timeframe and pick a higher timeframe. A good rule is 4× your current chart timeframe (1H chart → 4H+ blocks).

4

Filter for the blocks you actually want to trade

Use Sensitivity to filter by:

• Strength (Soft / High / Loud)

• Direction (bullish / bearish)

Settings reference

Display

Max OBs / Show last

Controls how many Order Blocks you see at once. Default is 4.

Higher values can surface weaker blocks. Lower values keep only the most relevant ones.

Dynamics

Original vs Attuned

• Original: less filtering, more organic blocks.

• Attuned: cleaner output, more regular sizing and spacing.

Sensitivity

Strength and direction filters

Use this to show only what matches your plan:

• Strength: Soft / High / Loud

• Side: bullish / bearish

MTF Timeframe

Multi-timeframe Order Blocks

Displays blocks derived from another timeframe. Higher timeframes usually produce stronger, more “macro” zones.

Block metrics

What shows inside the block

Use the toggles to show/hide the metrics inside the block. This is where you enable Relative %, Volume, the split bar, and Δ.

To display Order Blocks, the asset must have volume data.
