What To Know About Order Block In ThinkOrSwim

Hello All,

Can anyone please help me with a thinkscript that shows order blocks at different levels. What I know is orderblock is a level where there is significant activity among the market participants. The more orders there are, the longer the block. Also, I would like to see a plot of the high, low, and close of the order block at any aggregation. Please help

Thank you very much

Given that the time and sales data is not available for custom scripting on the ToS platform; the misleading-labeled Order Block Scripts are unreliable and unsuitable for serious traders.

They do not perform in real-time, and they repaint historical data; making them ineffective in guiding trading decisions.

Those order block scripts require the use of array code to create.
Luckily, thinkscript does not support array code, so there is not a proliferation of order block indicators for ToS.

Here is one:

ICT Trader tends to rebrand age-old concepts.
What ICT touts as Market Structure is essentially their Order Block Indicator.

Still laggy, still repaints but one magnitude less bad.

Then there are indicators that embrace the idea but incorporate real trading concepts.
Support and Resistance will always be a basic criterion that works.
