Smart Flow OB EA – User Guide
Overview
Smart Flow OB EA is a MetaTrader 5 Expert Advisor designed to trade using:
• Market Flow (higher highs/lows, lower highs/lows for structure)
• Order Block (OB) Confirmation (body/supply/demand zone detection)
• Delta Volume Analysis (proxy of buy/sell pressure imbalance)
• Multi-TP & Trailing Stop for advanced trade management
• On-Chart Info Label for transparency
How the EA Works
1. Market Flow Detection
o Determines trend: FLOW_UP, FLOW_DOWN, or FLOW_SIDE.
2. Order Block Confirmation
o Finds fresh OB zones aligned with market flow.
o OB must be touched + reclaimed for a valid entry.
3. Delta Volume Filter
o Confirms if there is strong buying/selling imbalance.
4. Entry Logic
o Buy → Demand OB confirmation + bullish delta.
o Sell → Supply OB confirmation + bearish delta.
o SL set just outside OB, with ATR buffer.
o Lot size adjusted by risk.
5. Trade Management
o If Multi-TP enabled → splits position into 3 targets.
o TP1 closes partial & optionally moves SL to BE.
o TP2 closes more, TP3 closes the rest.
o Optional trailing stop manages remaining position dynamically.
6. On-Chart Info Label
o Displays trend, delta status, OB zone, spread, ATR, and current position with TP
status.
