Institutional Order Flow Strength Classifier

Institutional Order Flow Strength Classifier detects unmitigated order blocks at confirmed structure breaks and grades every zone from 0-100%, so the levels most likely to carry institutional order flow stand apart from ordinary pivots. The score blends two weighted measures: displacement (how far price expanded away from the zone relative to its size) at 60%, and the zone candle's volume against its 20-period average at 40%.

How to Trade the Institutional Order Flow Strength Classifier?

• Above 70%: strong displacement on above-average volume, candidate zones for limit-order entries and major supply or demand.
• 40-70%: continuation-grade zones, commonly used for pullback entries, scaling, or stop placement within a trend.
• Below 40%: weak displacement or thin volume, zones that often behave as internal liquidity and get swept rather than respected.
• Strongest OB background: the solid filled area marks the highest-ranked active block within your buffer, a fast reference for bias and risk decisions.

Mitigation keeps the map current: a bullish zone is removed once price crosses below its bottom, a bearish zone once price crosses above its top. The Zonal Overlap system hides redundant boxes that stack in the same price region, leaving one representative zone per area.
