Anyone else working on order blocks?
I want to start a calm, practical conversation about order blocks. I read the rules of the account again before I place any trade. What has worked best for you?

Order blocks are typically identified as the last opposing candle before a strong impulsive move that breaks market structure. Traders look for price to return to these zones for potential entries, but their main limit is that not every order block holds, and false breakouts are common.
When trading order blocks on a funded account, managing your risk and position sizing is critical to respect strict daily loss limits and drawdown rules. Dropping below these thresholds can breach your evaluation or funded account instantly. Always cross-check your setup rules with the firm's specific guidelines, such as news trading restrictions.

For me, patience is key. I prefer waiting for a clear reaction from the order block rather than entering immediately.
I find order blocks more useful when they align with market structure and the overall trend.
A strong order block means little without confirmation. I always think risk management should come first.
One thing that helps is waiting for price to return to the zone and then looking for a clear entry trigger.
Keeping the process simple and following the account rules consistently can make a big difference over time.
