OB Breakout is alert indicator that identifies when a trend or price move is approaching exhaustion(Supply and Demand) and ready to reverse. It alerts you to changes in market movement which typically occur when a reversal or major pullbacks are about to or have happened.
The indicator identifies breakouts and price momentum initially, every time a new high or low is formed near a possible Supply or Demand level point. The indicator draws in a rectangle on Supply or Demand Zones. Once price weakens enough that it closes back above or below the rectangle this would indicate a potential shift in market structure is taking place. The indicator then alerts you to a potential shift in direction and the start of a possible reversal in trend or major pullback.

Strategy & How To Trade With The OB Breakout Indicator
When a reversal alert occurs:
- Check if there is a supply/demand or support/resistance level that we're turning at.
- Market movement reversals usually occur when price is retesting an old supply or demand level or a stop hunt has just happened above that support or resistance level.
- Consult a higher time frame to see if there is an area of support/resistance we are turning at.
- As above changes in market movements will often happen on lower time frames when at major levels on a higher time frame.
If the above conditions are met simply place a trade in the direction of the reversal.

Stop Loss and Take Profit
Always set stop loss just above the most recent high or below the most recent low. The size of your stop will be dependent on how aggressive the last move to create the recent high was.
Take profit is up to the individual but using a 1.5:1 or 2:1 risk to reward is easily achievable.
