What is Dynamic Order Blocks?
Dynamic Order Blocks is an MT4 indicator that displays bullish and bearish order-block areas derived from prior price movement. Teal and red boxes distinguish the two sides, and each box represents a price area rather than one exact level.
The zones help organize chart structure for review across recent and higher-timeframe views. A zone can change as price develops, so it should be compared with current market structure rather than treated as a fixed outcome.
How to use Dynamic Order Blocks
Review the teal areas below price and the red areas above price as the displayed buy-side and sell-side order-block ranges. Each area is a box with width rather than one exact horizontal price, so observe how candles behave inside the zone and whether they pass through its boundary.
Where it helps
Separate colors distinguish opposing order-block areas, boxes preserve a useful price range, and configurable display settings make structural review easier.
