Pure Price Action Order & Breaker Blocks maps each order block, a zone where heavy accumulation or distribution preceded a strong move, and keeps watching after the level gives way: an invalidated block evolves into a breaker block, confirmed when price returns to mitigate it. Detection runs on pattern-based swing points with no predefined input lengths, so the zones follow structure rather than settings.

How to Trade the Pure Price Action Order & Breaker Blocks?

  • Fresh order blocks: potential support or resistance where significant orders accumulated after a strong move and consolidation.
  • Breaker confirmation: when price comes back to mitigate an invalidated block, the flipped zone frames retracement and continuation setups.
  • Historical Polarity Changes: optional labels replay past effective setups, most instructive in replay, and worth knowing they may repaint.

Swing detection is hierarchical: a short-term swing high is a peak surrounded by lower highs, its counterpart a trough surrounded by higher lows, and the intermediate and long-term ranks are refined layer by layer from those earlier detections.
