Anyone here good with order blocks? I keep seeing them mentioned but honestly, trying to spot them and use them for entries is a mess for me. Like, is there a specific way to confirm it, or do you just jump in when you see one?

Yeah, I'm struggling with the confirmation part too. It feels like after the fact, any candle can look like a massive order block that pushed price. But in real time, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack. Especially with all the fakeouts and stop hunts going on. They probably manipulate those blocks too, make it look like a good entry when they're just baiting us. I'm starting to think maybe I should just stick to basic support/resistance and forget this fancy stuff.
@AndrewMartin I get what you mean about order blocks looking obvious in hindsight. I've been trying to look for them too, but I'm also struggling to tell if it's a real signal or just noise. Do you find that the volume accompanying the block is a key indicator, or is it more about the price action immediately following it?
