This is a very simple explanation of what a Breaker Block is. TTrades really do make very good educational videos. This channel is a veritable gold mine on YT.
This was valuable. I would encourage more videos about how to interpret these breaker blocks, what their context is in relationship(s) to price action vis-a-cis tradability and what it means for price action in relationship to other elements (FVG’s, OB’s, etc.) in proximity, thus influencing/confluencing them.
@Horus FX I don't know what that is but ICT has been teaching this stuff for over a decade. It's not new either way; only this video upload is. Calm down.
Thank you so much @TTrades it took me while to get it but after your brief but detailed explanation I finally understand. I'm so grateful. I didn't get it after I watched ICT's video but now I fully understand
TTrades,thank you man for such a simplicity. I do follow ICT and much understand him. But with your simplication you just add some spices into the meat. Thank you for your technicality but in a more simplified version. I have been confused as to what my trading model would be and i decided on this Breaker block and to see how you do it, it will make more life easier for my Backtesting.
These videos are fantastic. ICT can be hard to follow at times, but your vids help as a starting point to summarize these concepts. Helps me see the big picture before diving into the specifics. Thank you
@@Moedow calm down kid, even if what you are saying is true (which I doubt 100%) I'm still glad that ICT himself decided to teach his knowledge for FREE
Hey TTrades.Could you showcase the ict concepts on the US30 as well please.I would like to apply ICT to this instrument however i find it a bit difficult.Thank you in advance and keep the videos coming.Thank you.
Appreciate your vidoes. Can you do a video on the 4 stages : consolidation , expansion, retracement and reversals? many many thanks. will watch all your education ICT playlist. thanks for posting.
Thanks for the explanation and examples. My question then would be, where would an entry be taken for either bearish/bullish breaker block. I know it would depend also on if a volume imbalance/gap/FVG is formed in the process.
Thanks for the vid. Your concise vid would have taken ict 90 minutes and who knows how many offshoots to insane rant topics. I would have given up after about 15 minutes, but understand the concept and your examples in 8 minutes. Well done.
I am new with ICT as well and learning everything properly from him. I also wanted to confirm something. When you say bearish breaker that means the market will be bullish and when you say bullish breaker that means the market will be bearish. Correct? Can we take reversal entry on these breaker blocks or do we supposed to wait for Fair Value Gap to enter? I also wanted to find out if there are more videos I can watch on the breaker block on his channel? Great video thx!
It truly depends what time frame you are talking about, but yes it is a reversal pattern. Waiting for a FVG or not is up to you and backtesting. Sometimes the breaker and fvg lines up. He should have more videos in his core content
@@TTrades_edu thank you so much for reply back. I really wish we can actually chat with Michael but I can totally understand where he is coming from. But at the same time, I greatly appreciate you taking time and helping us with your explanation videos and taking time to answer our questions. I always take entry on FVG because that is what I am studying 2022 mentorship and lots of time I have problem understanding why Daily is fluctuating into bull and bear in NY am session. Also I also have little problem understanding when the bear market how far the market can go up on buyside liquidity before it turns back into premium and towards discount. Because lately it has not been doing that. It goes up and maybe dip down a little bit in premium then go back out and keep going up. That throws me off. Do you have any videos on explaining that? When to know it is turning and taking an entry? I am so sorry I am asking you too much. I really am. You gave us a finger to hold and I am holding your whole hand. So sorry.
My way of looking breaker block is the swing point after which HH and LL Both are created in next swing . If you guys having to see then pls try this method ..
Slap a MACD and BB, you will see macd divergence, then a fast move down, so called FVG, price pierce the other side of BB, then retrace back to touch the opposition band, enter.
Would love to see you make a video about how to determine a FVG/Breaker is going to hold price - sometimes they got respected, breached by a single tick IOFED never reached MT, but other time price just racing through them like there is no resistance at all.
you can wait to see if the MT gets respected, wait for the displacement, AND THEN wait for the rebalance of the FVG after the MT was respected and the imbalance confirmed the move... I think you are entering right when the MT is touched and not waiting to see if it gets respected. And sometimes it flies without you and thats fine.. ending the day as if it's BE is better than a SL
agree with the comments below. another thing you can do is wait for candle closes. If you want more confirmation can go to a LTF and look for an entry model or OB to manage risk to and enter off of.
Thank you. I was wanting to also understand the scenarios that will lead formation of a bullish or bearish Brkr Block, as in real market situation it will be difficult to trade this. Does the HTF bias also play a role here, considering its a reversal pattern?
2:20 Candles and Valid Breaker blocks Full body vs small body and wicks . 3:45 TF 15 minutes and BEARISH Breaker block (last down bearish candle) High _Low then HH _ LL. Where is the Breaker Block? To confirm scale UP one TF and verify the breaker block. 4:10 Key concept. Expect to see "resistance" inside the breaker block. 4:45 In this example the market RESPECTED the mean threshold at the Volume Imbalance. 5:10 Example 2 Bullish Breaker Block. Top down analysis using 4 hour and 30 m TF. 6:05 So where is the Breaker Block? Note the C/E inside the +Breaker and the price reaction.
Great video. Question I have is, usually after the breaker block, there is also an order block. How do we determine which to use? would it be the candle that is closest to other entry points such as OTC, FVG, IDM?
Goodmorning sir ur lessons are very beneficial but what is characteristics of valid breaker and mitigation block and their confluence thank I hope I will get answered.
So, what is the difference between trading the BB vs an OB? In a bullish example, as in the first, price breaks them both, and the both act to reject higher prices. Perhaps the question is, what is going on algorithmically when you have a BB vs an OB? Thank you sir.
up candle would be orderblock, doesnt need to sweep highs. bearish breaker would be the downclose candle before the move up that takes highs then takes that low.
So you use your L, LL, H, HH same method on both. But you never really can predict where it’s gonna go…you said to watch the resistance line you make. But still it can go either way. This is a good video!
You need to watch his Daily Bias video and then the liquidity one. It helped me determine my daily bias and the POI where the draw on liquidity is possible going to happen for a trend reversal or continuation
@@002Thousandhey there, I have a doubt in Daily bias..I have watched his video and it really helped me but I have a little confusing doubt in it..can u help?
Thanks. But, we need to calculate the center point to draw the horizontal line. I have seen some videos, where they draw the rectangle along with the centerline.
Hi! thanks for the video, you made it so clear, but in the last example, wouldn't the market structure be too tight on 15m? just my opinion it's not really a market structure there where create HH and LL, hoping you can explain the detail there...thank you so much!! really appreciate 🙏
Just confused about the difference between breaker blocks and flip zones. How can I tell when to put buy or sell on the flip supply or demand and when to do this on the breaker block?
The part that confuses me is after the 1st high, the displacement breaks the low and forms a fvg, in my mind i would've looked for shorts at the fvg.. what am i doing wrong? @5:48 Also, After it breaks the High with the impulsive move, it sort of forms you're box setup. How do you know whether to look for entries at the low that was broken or to use the breaker blocks or for OTE levels as there is also a BISI fvg, if you're looking for a long?
1) it already hit DOL or the the orderflow isn't in that direction anymore. also, when it is respecting the CE of the breaker it is unlikely to rech to the low or the box setup. It really comes down to risk management. Sorry that wasn't the best explanation.
@@TTrades_edu if you would consider taking a little more time to cover different scenarios on what qualities an ob that would greatly help. It's the change in state of delivery, but when we have multiple down or up candles is the first candle that qualifies or the whole set or mid point or wicks and why when etc. I'm sure many have the same questions. Appreciate your consideration.
First, thank you for making these videos. My question is - how is this video different from the one you made on Order blocks? I find both the videos illustrate the same concept .. am I missing something?
Orderblocks there are a bunch of different ways to use them. and they dont have to take liquidity. I just drew it like that in the video because that is normally when im searching for an entry. I will remake the video at some point. Sorry for confusion.

some will enter on the retest with limit, some will market after it respects

Hey TT! So essentially are you looking for breaker blocks at a deep discount or deep premium ? Thanks!
Yep
Thank you for videos, I am watching over and over to learn the concepts. in that case, entry would be at .5 and SL outside of the box?
could you put time stamp? generally I like price to respect the MT of the OB or BB.
@@TTrades_edu@TTrades_edu Hi! Thank you for reaching out so quickly!! It was at 4:50 and 6:32 .
Yeah I personally would use other side of box or swing high / low

It is up to personal backtesting!
can you make an inversion fair value gap videos please. like a failed SIBI, a resistance turned into support
Thank you for your time and hard work!
it is mentioned in next weeks video! Already made!
In your last example you chose a down candle for the bearish breaker block (black)…early on you said to choose the last up candle?
up candle would be orderblock, doesnt need to sweep highs.
bearish breaker would be the downclose candle before the move up that takes highs then takes that low.
Thanks for this sir. When you are using breaker block where is you target to take profit?
HTF levels of liquidity / PD array.
can always take off at low hanging fruit
Ive been using breaker blocks on Gold for a while now with 5min tf. Insane how high the winning % is
So you use your L, LL, H, HH same method on both. But you never really can predict where it’s gonna go…you said to watch the resistance line you make. But still it can go either way. This is a good video!

When should you use a breaker and when should you use the extreme OB

Thanks for the BB video. How do we draw the center line of the BB?
can use the rectangle and select horizontal line

Just confused about the difference between breaker blocks and flip zones. How can I tell when to put buy or sell on the flip supply or demand and when to do this on the breaker block?
I am not familiar with supply and demand, so I am not the best to answer that question!
How to establish threshold mean... I.e., As price evidently return to that mean?
The conundrum is that you will not know what it is until it happens. This is why Michael says teaching this to people may do more harm than intended
not sure what you mean
Man I love your presentation. By the way can this work on 1H timeframe?
works on any time frame

@@TTrades_edu if you would consider taking a little more time to cover different scenarios on what qualities an ob that would greatly help.

Appreciate your consideration.
So today we had multiple double breaker blocks on ES that faked people out both ways. Please explain this in your linear way of trading.
what time frame are you looking at
I'm still confused lol. How do u decide whether to use the wick or the full candle body of an adjacent candle in last example.
