Takeaways

  • 💡 在金融市场交易时,从错误中学习是成功的关键。
  • 📈 订单区块在特定条件下更有效,能够产生利润。
  • 🔍 有效的订单区块需要满足特定条件,包括市场结构的内外部概念。
  • 📊 订单区块是买卖订单驻留的区域,市场一旦拒绝这些水平,返回这些水平时可能会再次对它们做出反应。
  • 🚀 有效订单区块的首要规则是存在效率不足,表明聪明的资金已经进入市场并影响了价格。
  • ✂️ 第二个规则是打破市场结构,表明创建该移动的供需区域不是普通水平,而是市场结构中的有影响力区域。
  • 🧲 流动性是关键因素,结合订单区块可以加深对市场动态的理解并为战略决策提供宝贵信息。
  • 🔖 标记订单区块时,我们标记在极端牛市或熊市移动开始之前的最后一个蜡烛作为我们的订单区块区域。
  • 🔄 继续订单区块在价格趋势向上或向下时形成,并与主导趋势一致。
  • 🔀 结合市场结构概念使用订单区块,进行自上而下的分析以全面了解当前市场状况和未来动向。

Q & A

  • 什么是订单区块(Order Block)?

    -订单区块是金融市场中买卖订单聚集的区域,市场一旦拒绝这些水平,当价格返回这些水平时,可能会再次对它们做出反应。每个订单区块都是供应或需求水平,但并非每个供应和需求区域都符合订单区块的资格。

  • 有效订单区块需要满足哪些条件?

    -有效订单区块的条件包括存在低效率(即不平衡和公平价值差距),市场结构的突破(比如在看涨情况下,价格动作突破最近的市场结构并且收盘在近期高点之上)。

  • 什么是公平价值差距?

    -公平价值差距是在买家和卖家之间产生的不平衡时形成的图表模式,这种不平衡显示智能资金已经进入市场并影响了价格。

  • 如何在图表上有效标记订单区块?

    -有效标记订单区块的方法是标记在剧烈的看涨行动开始之前的最后一个蜡烛图,无论蜡烛颜色如何,都认为决策是在这个蜡烛图期间做出的,使其成为购买订单所在的重要区域。

  • 什么是市场结构概念,它与订单区块有何关系?

    -市场结构概念包括趋势、反转、公平价值差距、流动性区域等元素,与订单区块的结合有助于提高交易决策的有效性。

  • 什么是流动性抓取模式,它如何增强订单区块的作用?

    -流动性抓取模式是市场在达到供需区域之前,朝当前趋势的方向抓取止损位的常见模式。这种模式的出现增强了订单区块作为交易机会的有效性。

  • 订单区块在趋势中如何被利用?

    -在趋势中,订单区块可以被视为与主导趋势一致的交易机会,例如,在上升趋势中,沿途形成的每个需求订单区块都是一个做多的机会。

  • 如何使用ATR指标来判断订单区块的大小?

    -如果订单区块的蜡烛图小于ATR(平均真实范围)的60%,则需要将订单区块区域扩展到两侧的一个ATR。

  • 为什么进行顶层分析对于成功交易很重要?

    -进行顶层分析,通过分析多个时间框架来获得对当前市场条件和未来运动的全面理解,是确保交易成功的关键因素。

  • 什么是反转和范围内的订单区块?

    -反转订单区块是在主导趋势反转时形成的,具有巨大的风险收益比潜力;范围内订单区块是在价格在一定范围内波动之前市场形成的,当价格返回这些区域时,预期市场会拒绝这些区域并继续向上推进。

Keywords

💡金融市场

金融市场是交易各种金融工具(如股票、债券、货币等)的场所。在视频中,讲解者通过分享交易金融市场时的经验,强调了从交易中学习和避免重复错误的重要性。这表明金融市场不仅是资金和资产交易的平台,也是交易者学习和成长的环境。

💡订单区块

订单区块是一个交易概念,指的是市场上具有大量买卖订单集中的区域。视频中解释了订单区块如何在特定条件下更有效地运作并产生利润,这些条件包括市场结构的理解和如何在图表上标记和交易这些区块。

💡学习错误

在视频中,强调了在金融市场交易中犯错误是不可避免的,但最大的错误是从这些失败中学不到任何东西。这强调了持续学习和从实践中改进的重要性。

💡市场结构

市场结构是指市场的组织方式和运作规则。视频中讨论了内部和外部市场结构的概念,这些概念对于与订单区块结合使用至关重要,以更好地理解和预测市场动态。

💡有效订单区块

有效订单区块是指在特定条件下被市场尊重的订单区块。视频中解释了确定有效订单区块所需的条件,例如市场结构的破坏和价格效率的存在,以及如何在图表上标记这些区块。

💡不平衡

不平衡是指买卖方之间存在的明显差异,导致市场价格快速移动。视频中提到,当大量资金进入市场并创建买卖之间的不平衡时,就会形成价格效率差异,这些差异是识别有效订单区块的关键。

💡市场结构破坏

市场结构破坏指的是价格移动突破最近的市场高点或低点,从而改变市场趋势。视频中强调,当价格突破并关闭在最近的高点或低点之上时,它表明产生这一移动的供需区域不是普通水平,而是市场结构中的有影响力区域。

💡流动性

流动性指的是市场中可用于交易的资金量。视频中提到,将流动性概念与订单区块结合使用,可以增强对市场动态的理解,并为战略决策提供宝贵信息。

💡风险管理

风险管理是指识别、评估和优先考虑风险,并协调资源以最小化、监控和控制不确定性的影响。视频中提到,在特定场景下标记订单区块时,考虑到风险管理非常重要,如在包含较小订单区块的情况下设置较大的止损。

💡顶部-向下分析

顶部-向下分析是一种分析方法,从宏观角度开始分析,然后逐步深入到细节。视频中提到,为了全面了解当前市场状况和未来走势,总是将顶部-向下分析应用于图表,涉及使用多个时间框架来识别市场方向、关键水平和供需区域。

Highlights

订单区块是买卖订单集中的区域。当价格返回这些区域时,市场可能再次对它们产生反应。

并非所有的供需区域都符合订单区块的条件。订单区块通常伴随着某些条件,比如价格间隙、结构破裂等。

我们总是在绘制市场结构图时标记价格间隙。这是识别有效订单区块的第一条规则。

当价格运动打破最新市场结构,关闭在最近高点之上时,形成该价格运动的需求区域变得非常重要,标志着结构性反转。

与订单区块概念相结合的流动性概念可以增强我们对市场动态的理解,为战略决策提供有价值的信息。

hey guys when trading in the financial

play00:02

markets you're going to make a lot of

play00:04

mistakes learning nothing from those

play00:07

mistakes is the mistake after numerous

play00:10

trades on multiple pairs it became

play00:12

evident to us that order blocks operate

play00:14

more effectively and generate profits

play00:16

when they are accompanied by certain

play00:19

conditions so in this video we are going

play00:21

to simplify the concept of order blocks

play00:23

in trading we are going to explain a

play00:25

rule-based approach toward the order

play00:27

blocks that are being respected by the

play00:28

market we will will explain what

play00:30

conditions are required for a valid

play00:32

order block how to effectively mark and

play00:34

trade them on the chart and also the

play00:37

internal and external Market structures

play00:39

Concepts that are required to combine

play00:41

with the order block

play00:42

play00:58

knowledge

play01:05

welcome back and let's get started

play01:08

generally order blocks are areas where

play01:09

the buying or selling orders

play01:12

reside the market has rejected these

play01:14

levels once so when it returns to these

play01:17

levels it might react to them

play01:19

again every order block is a supply or

play01:22

demand level but not every Supply in

play01:24

demand area qualifies as an order block

play01:26

let me show you how every reaction to a

play01:29

price level creates a supply or demand

play01:31

area it shows that for whatever reason

play01:33

Traders have opened massive buy or sell

play01:35

positions which cause significant price

play01:37

movements so when the price returns to

play01:40

these levels we closely monitor the

play01:42

price action to find Possible Trading

play01:45

opportunities but trading every supply

play01:47

and demand area would not be effective

play01:50

through time and witnessing repetitive

play01:52

patterns on the chart we have noticed

play01:53

that when supply and demand areas are

play01:55

accompanied by certain conditions the

play01:57

chance of working significantly improves

play02:00

one of the key supply and demand areas

play02:01

is order blocks so first let's see what

play02:05

conditions are required to consider an

play02:06

area of valid order block to trade then

play02:09

I will show how to effectively mark them

play02:10

on the chart so let's continue with the

play02:13

rules of a valid order block the first

play02:15

rule is having

play02:18

inefficiency inefficiency imbalance and

play02:21

fair value gaps are highly similar

play02:23

Concepts when a large amount of money

play02:25

enters the market and creates an

play02:27

imbalance between the buyers and sellers

play02:29

the fair value Gap patterns form between

play02:31

the candles creating a phase of

play02:33

inefficiency these movements on the

play02:35

chart show that smart money has entered

play02:36

the market and affected the

play02:38

price price often returns to these areas

play02:41

to accumulate the remaining orders which

play02:43

creates a trading opportunity the price

play02:46

takes off after reaching order blocks

play02:48

but only if there exist remaining orders

play02:51

so a supply or demand area that created

play02:54

the fair value gaps becomes a strong

play02:56

level we always Mark the fair value gaps

play02:59

on the chart when mapping the market

play03:00

structure which is the first rule of

play03:02

identifying a valid order

play03:05

block the second rule for having a valid

play03:08

order block is breaking the market

play03:11

structure in the bullish scenario when a

play03:14

price movement breaks the latest Market

play03:16

structure and closes above the recent

play03:18

High the origin of the price movement

play03:20

becomes highly important it shows that

play03:23

the demand area that created this

play03:24

movement is not an ordinary level but an

play03:27

influential area in the market structure

play03:29

with all being said a supply or demand

play03:32

zone is considered a valid order block

play03:34

that leads to a structural

play03:37

break the same concept is applied to the

play03:39

bearish scenario when a price movement

play03:42

breaks the latest Market structure to

play03:43

the downside the origin of the price

play03:45

movement becomes highly important it

play03:47

shows that the supply area that created

play03:50

this movement is not an ordinary level

play03:53

but an influential Zone in the market

play03:54

structure so these demand areas are

play03:56

considered valid order

play03:58

blocks here we have a moving uptrend

play04:02

this is the most recent break of

play04:03

structure which shows that the demand is

play04:05

still in

play04:06

control all these demand areas are

play04:08

considered an opportunity to go short

play04:11

but here is an important point the

play04:13

origin of this bullish price movement is

play04:15

highly important and provides the best

play04:17

trading opportunities there is a high

play04:19

chance that the rest become a victim of

play04:21

liquidity grab that's why we have to use

play04:23

a lower risk when placing trades in

play04:25

these

play04:26

areas if you have any doubts about

play04:28

identifying a valid break of structure

play04:30

or reversal make sure to watch our

play04:32

previous videos about Market structure

play04:34

Concepts which are linked in the

play04:36

description let's move on to the next

play05:10

play05:12

sure to check the link in the

play05:15

description last but not least the

play05:19

liquidity liquidity is where the stop

play05:21

losses reside combining the liquidity

play05:24

concept with order blocks enhances our

play05:26

understanding of market dynamics and

play05:28

provides valuable information for

play05:30

strategic decision-making grabbing

play05:32

liquidity in the direction of the

play05:34

current Trend before reaching a supply

play05:36

and demand area improves the quality of

play05:38

that area there are three common

play05:41

liquidity grab patterns that happen

play05:43

every day on the chart forming each one

play05:46

before reaching our order block

play05:47

increases the chance of success for our

play05:50

trade let's start with the first one the

play05:53

first liquidity grab pattern is when we

play05:55

have fair value gaps and an order block

play05:57

Zone precisely below our demand area so

play06:01

there is a high chance that the first

play06:02

demand area becomes the victim of a

play06:04

liquidity grab movement and then the

play06:06

price takes off when it reaches our

play06:08

order block Zone this will make our

play06:10

order block Zone even more powerful

play06:12

because right now the market contains

play06:14

the required liquidity for future

play06:17

movements for example here we have a

play06:20

demand area and a potential trading

play06:22

opportunity to go long but looking at

play06:24

the left side we can spot this gap

play06:26

between the candles precisely below the

play06:28

demand Zone

play06:30

now this Gap will act as a magnet for

play06:31

the price to come and fill it restore

play06:33

the balance grab the liquidity and

play06:36

continue pushing upwards when it

play06:37

mitigates the order

play06:40

block so here comes an important point

play06:43

before placing any trade you should look

play06:44

at the left side to see the market

play06:46

structure conditions to avoid this kind

play06:47

of unnecessary risk so when this kind of

play06:50

scenario forms on the chart there's a

play06:52

higher chance for this move to be just a

play06:54

liquidity grab and does not necessarily

play06:56

mean a reversal is coming making our

play06:58

order blocks Zone more powerful and a

play07:00

perfect trading opportunity to go

play07:03

long the second liquidity grab pattern

play07:06

happens by forming equal highs and lows

play07:08

equal highs and lows are interesting

play07:10

trading areas for traditional support

play07:12

and resistance traders in the bullish

play07:14

scenario below the equal lows contain

play07:16

lots of liquidity if the correction move

play07:19

consists of this kind of support area

play07:21

this is another confirmation that the

play07:23

conditions are ready for smart money to

play07:24

grab the liquidity and continue pushing

play07:27

forward when the price reaches the

play07:28

demand Zone

play07:32

the same concept is applied to the

play07:33

bearish scenario above the equal highs

play07:36

contain lots of liquidity if the

play07:38

correction move consists of this kind of

play07:40

resistance area this is another

play07:42

confirmation that the conditions are

play07:44

ready for smart money to grab the

play07:45

liquidity and continue pushing downwards

play07:47

when the price reaches the supply

play07:50

Zone defining precise rules for every

play07:52

scenario that happens on the chart is

play07:54

tough yet as you engage in back testing

play07:57

and live trading the key ize in

play07:59

adjusting your trading system to align

play08:01

with the optimal conditions that work

play08:03

most effectively for you back testing is

play08:06

necessary to obtain the performance of a

play08:07

trading setup but unfortunately it can

play08:10

take a lot of time that is why we use

play08:12

Trader Edge we use the trader Edge

play08:15

play08:19

in using Trader Edge as your back

play08:20

testing tool be sure to check out the

play08:22

link in the description

play08:24

below now that we have discussed the

play08:26

rules for identifying a valid order

play08:28

block let me show you how to effectively

play08:30

mark them on the chart we Mark the last

play08:33

Candlestick before the start of a

play08:35

drastic bullish move as our order block

play08:37

Zone regardless of the candle color we

play08:39

believe that the decisions are made

play08:41

during this candle which makes it an

play08:42

important area where the buying orders

play08:44

reside when the price Taps into this

play08:46

area again we will open a buy position

play08:49

and set our stop below the Zone in some

play08:51

cases we even look for more

play08:53

confirmations and entry setup in the

play08:54

lower time frames which we will discuss

play08:56

in the future

play08:58

videos

play09:00

same concept for the bearish scenario we

play09:02

Mark the last Candlestick before the

play09:04

start of a drastic bearish move as our

play09:06

order block Zone this is the basic form

play09:09

of marking the order blocks on the

play09:12

chart but in some scenarios we would

play09:14

have some adjustments for example

play09:17

sometimes a wick grabs the liquidity

play09:19

below the order block Candlestick which

play09:21

makes us add this Wick to our Zone but

play09:24

the problem is we would have a large

play09:26

order block to trade that's why in

play09:28

situations like this we will look for

play09:30

more confirmations in the lower time

play09:32

frames to execute trades at a better

play09:35

price sometimes the Candlestick that

play09:38

created the order block is a very small

play09:40

one there is a chance that the price

play09:42

will mitigate this Zone and respect the

play09:43

low but it is not a law if you trade

play09:47

this on the real chart you will notice

play09:49

that many times the market will break

play09:50

through these areas before start pushing

play09:52

upwards so in situations where the order

play09:56

block contains a small area we will set

play09:58

a large stop stop loss below the order

play10:00

block or we consider a larger area on

play10:02

both sides but how do we know that this

play10:05

candle is smaller than the average

play10:07

Candlestick range we will measure it by

play10:09

applying the ATR indicator on the chart

play10:11

the average true range or ATR is an

play10:14

indicator that measures Market

play10:16

volatility it gives you the average size

play10:18

of the previous 14 candles in default

play10:20

settings so here is an extra rule for

play10:23

marking the order block Zone if the

play10:25

order block Candlestick is smaller than

play10:27

60% of the ATR we will extend our Zone

play10:30

to one ATR from both

play10:32

sides for example here the ATR shows

play10:35

that the average size of the past 14

play10:37

candles is 20 Pips so if the order block

play10:40

range is lower than 60% of 20 12 Pips we

play10:43

will extend our order block Zone to 20

play10:46

Pips now based on the market structure

play10:49

Concepts three kinds of order blocks

play10:51

form on the chart continuation reversal

play10:54

and ranging order

play10:56

blocks continuation order blocks have

play10:59

happen when the price is trending upward

play11:00

or downward and Order blocks form

play11:02

aligned with the dominant trend for

play11:05

example imagine that we have an uptrend

play11:07

with a series of higher highs and higher

play11:09

lows each of the demand order blocks

play11:11

that form along the way is an

play11:13

opportunity to go along with the

play11:14

dominant uptrend but if a change of

play11:17

character appears a supply order block

play11:19

automatically will form which is against

play11:21

the dominant uptrend usually the

play11:24

continuation order blocks have a higher

play11:26

chance of success because they are in

play11:28

line with the Trend however reversal

play11:30

order blocks have the potential to gain

play11:32

massive risk to reward

play11:34

ratios the next order block is the

play11:36

ranging order block this kind of order

play11:38

block forms when the price is in a Range

play11:40

phase before a drastic move happens in

play11:42

the market when the price returns to the

play11:45

ranging Zone we expect the market to

play11:47

reject this area and continue pushing

play11:49

upwards from the visual perspective

play11:52

identifying the range zone is easy it

play11:54

feels like the price is trapped inside

play11:56

the Box however from the the mechanical

play11:59

perspective we need at least four

play12:01

consecutive candles each one closing

play12:04

back inside the

play12:05

range now all of the rules and

play12:07

conditions we have discussed so far are

play12:09

crucial for identifying valid order

play12:11

blocks however there is one important

play12:13

factor that needs to be considered to

play12:15

increase the chance of winning trades

play12:17

combining order blocks with Market

play12:18

structure Concepts finding an entry Zone

play12:21

alone is not enough for a successful

play12:23

trade that's why we always apply a top-

play12:25

down analysis to the chart to gain a

play12:27

comprehensive understanding of the

play12:28

current Market condition and future

play12:30

movements this top down analysis

play12:32

consists of three major time frames

play12:35

starting with the 4-Hour chart we apply

play12:37

the concepts of Market structure to the

play12:38

chart to find the market Direction key

play12:40

levels and supply and demand areas

play12:43

following we zoom into one hour which is

play12:45

our major analysis time frame on the 1

play12:48

hour chart we identify the trend breaks

play12:51

reversals fair value gaps liquidity

play12:54

areas order blocks and trading

play12:56

opportunities furthermore we zoom in to

play12:59

15 minutes to find confirmations in the

play13:01

lower time frames and execute

play13:03

orders so guys that's it for this video
