Failed order blocks, or bullish breakers, signal clear entries in ICT trading. Place your stop just below the breaker to catch wicks in low-liquidity crypto markets. Pair this setup with a higher-timeframe bias for better odds.
Imagine prices pulling back here. This would be a bullish order block right here. Right? But then it doesn't work as a bullish order block. It ends up losing a low and then reclaiming it. Bullish breaker is going to be a failed, bearish order block. Right? And now we're getting real into the ICT nerds Kool Aid here. But the reason I like it so much as a setup is because you have an entry. And then to me, the risk is the stop run. You could put your risk right below the breaker. At least because I'm a crypto trader, I find that those get tagged more. You get a lot of wicks in crypto because less liquid. So I find having my stop here, like, if. If this low gets taken out, I'm wrong anyways. And now you've got this setup within your high time frame. Bias.
