Strategy overview

Order blocks mark the zone a large directional move originated from, and price-action traders watch for price to return there. In this walkthrough from the Spanish-language channel Fabian Alejandro Diaz, the order block deliberately does not come first: the routine opens by establishing the trend and the directional impulse, and only afterwards goes looking for liquidity zones inside that move. The sequencing carries the logic — the zone is treated not as a signal in itself, but as the place where an impulse you have already identified is expected to resume.

What sets this presentation apart from most order-block material is where it spends its time. Locating the zones is finished around the eight-minute mark, and the remainder of the video goes to entry, stop-loss placement, take-profit and risk management, closing on consistency rather than on finding more setups. The implicit argument is that marking the zone is the easy half, and that what happens after the entry decides the result — an unusual weighting for a topic that usually exhausts itself on how to draw the box.

The video also treats liquidity zones and order blocks as a single working vocabulary rather than two separate ideas, and reads the market top-down: the higher timeframe carries the analysis while the entry is refined on a much lower chart, down to the one-minute. The headline figure in the title — "+$1,000,000 con esta simple estrategia" — is a claim made in the title, not a property of the method that can be assessed from the video. This page covers the concept and how the source frames it, rather than a rule-by-rule extraction.

Frequently asked questions

What is an order block in price action trading?

An order block is a zone on the chart where a significant directional move originated. Price-action traders mark it and watch for price to return to that area, treating it as a possible support or resistance region where the original move may continue.

Why does this strategy identify the trend before looking for order blocks?

In this video the impulse comes first by design: order blocks are only searched for inside an already-established directional move. That makes the zone a pullback destination within a known direction rather than a standalone entry signal, which is how the presenter avoids reacting to every zone on the chart.

What timeframes does this order block approach use?

It works top-down — a higher timeframe carries the analysis and the trend read, then a much lower chart, down to the one-minute, is used to refine the entry. The higher timeframe is described by its role rather than fixed to one specific number.

How can I evaluate a video strategy like this before trading it?

Test the idea on historical data on your own instrument and session before risking capital, and pay attention to the parts the video emphasises — stop placement and risk sizing — since those usually matter more than the zone itself.
