Strategy overview

An order block is the candle or zone that precedes a strong displacement in price, which Smart Money Concepts traders treat as a place where the move may be defended if price returns. What makes this entry unusual among order-block videos is that the order block is not the thing doing the locating: the session clock is. The levels come from the Asian session high and low, with the Tokyo session used to separate one trading day from the next and New York time as the reference zone for the settings — the order block enters only later, on the lower timeframe, as the trigger inside an area the clock has already chosen.

The source is "Estrategia Sencilla y Efectiva para Fondeos 🚀 (70% Winrate)" by Gorka Fx, a Spanish-language video aimed at traders working through prop-firm funding challenges. It runs top-down across two timeframes — the hourly chart for the session levels, the 5-minute chart for the execution — with imbalance listed alongside the order block as the second piece of SMC vocabulary in play. The whole routine is chaptered into roughly two and a quarter minutes: an overview, marking the highs and lows, moving to M5, what to do when the expected reversal does not appear, a separate set of rules for the New York session, and a closing summary. The contingency chapter and the session-specific chapter are the tell that this is presented as a timetable to follow rather than a concept to understand.

The title advertises a 70% win rate. That figure is the video's own claim, presented without a published sample, test period or account history, and nothing on this page verifies or endorses it — an important distinction when the stated audience is traders operating under funding-challenge drawdown limits, where the distribution of losses matters more than a headline percentage. No formal rule set has been extracted for this strategy, so this page covers the concept and the context of the source rather than a reconstructed step-by-step system.

Frequently asked questions

What is an order block in Smart Money Concepts?

An order block is the candle or price zone immediately before a strong directional move, which SMC traders mark as a level price may react to if it returns there. In this video it plays a supporting role — the entry area is defined first by session levels, with the order block used on the lower timeframe.

Why do session-based strategies use the Asian session high and low?

The Asian session is typically the quietest of the three major sessions, so its high and low often form a compact range. Traders use those two levels as reference boundaries for the more active London and New York sessions that follow, watching how price behaves around them once volume returns.

Does the 70% win rate in the title mean this strategy wins 70% of trades?

No — that number is a claim made in the video's own title, not a verified or independently tested result. No sample size, date range or account statement is provided with it, and no performance data for this strategy is published on this page.

Are the exact entry rules from this video available here?

No structured rule set was extracted for this strategy, so this page describes the concept and the video's approach rather than reproducing its steps. Strategy Decoder extracts the structure of strategies from video sources where the rules can be defined mechanically, so they can be evaluated and tested.
