Strategy overview
An order block marks the zone where a strong move originated, on the premise that unfilled institutional orders remain there and may react if price returns. This entry decodes ABAD TRADER's Spanish-language crypto video "Cómo Empezar en Trading Crypto HOY MISMO (Estrategia de 9 Pasos)", where the order block is not the headline idea but step four of a numbered nine-step starting routine — a confirmation checkpoint that only comes into play once earlier steps have done their work.
That position inverts the usual role. In most order-block teaching the zone is what you look for first; here the trend is defined first, the asset is chosen second — an explicit step that many strategy videos skip entirely — and the third step marks the impulse leg and draws a Fibonacci retracement across it. The retracement is what locates the area of interest; the order block arrives afterwards to confirm that the level found by measurement also corresponds to a place where a real displacement began. Volume Profile sits alongside as a third reference, contributing volume-based landmarks such as the point of control and the value-area edges, so a zone that is drawn by eye can be cross-checked against where trading activity actually concentrated.
The video is structured as a beginner onboarding path rather than a mechanical specification, and no rule set was extracted from it — the timestamps run through the first four steps of the nine, and the timeframes referenced span from the 3-day and daily charts down to intraday and lower charts for entry timing, which tells you the intended workflow is top-down rather than single-chart. What this page offers is context on how the three tools are meant to relate to one another in that sequence, and on why confluence-first framing appeals to traders starting out in crypto; the video itself remains the source for the step-by-step walkthrough.

Frequently asked questions
Where do order blocks fit into this nine-step crypto strategy?
They are step four, used as confirmation. The routine defines the main trend first, selects the asset second, then marks the impulse and traces a Fibonacci retracement to locate the area of interest — the order block is checked afterwards to validate that level rather than to find it.
Why combine order blocks with Fibonacci retracement and Volume Profile?
Each provides a different kind of evidence for the same area: Fibonacci measures the retracement geometrically, the order block points to where a displacement originated, and Volume Profile shows where volume actually concentrated through references like the point of control and the value area. The idea is agreement between independent references, not any single signal.
Is an order block a beginner-friendly concept?
It is easy to describe and hard to apply consistently, because identification is visual and depends on how you define a valid displacement or structure break. Videos framed as beginner guides tend to present the idea cleanly; the discretion involved in marking zones is what takes practice, and results depend entirely on execution and risk management.
Does this page contain the full rules for the strategy?
No — no mechanical rule set was extracted from this video, so there are no entry, exit or risk conditions to publish here. Strategy Decoder catalogues the concept, tools and timeframes referenced by the source so you can judge whether the approach is worth studying and testing yourself.
