Why do people fail with Order Blocks?
An ICT Order Block is a candlestick pattern.

All candlestick patterns such as Fair Value Gaps or Retail Chart Patterns will fail if they are opposing the Institutional Order Flow
Therefore, the reason traders fail with ICT Order Block is because they are failing to trade aligned with the Banks and Financial
Institutions.

If you are trading an ICT Candlestick Pattern or a Retail Chart Pattern that is aligned with the Banks and Financial Institutions,
the pattern will have success.
The Key to Selecting Order Blocks
By understanding that Candlestick Patterns succeed if they are following Institutional Order Flow,
the key to selecting Order Blocks is within determining what the current Institutional Order Flow is.

Are we seeing Bullish Institutional Order Flow?


Are we seeing Bearish Institutional Order Flow?

We can determine the Institutional Order Flow by determining what the Narrative is.

Narrative can be found from a Long-term Perspective since the Banks and Financial Institutions Operate on the Higher Time Frames.

The purpose of a Parent Order Block is to create the Intermediate-Term Swing Point.
The purpose of Subordinate Order Blocks is to send prices toward the Draw on Liquidity.

Important Reminder!
The closer we get to our objectives, the lower probability the subordinate Order Blocks become.
This is because price trades more and more into Oversold/Overbought Conditions.
It’s Important to always be aware of the Premium vs Discount conditions.
