The True Order Block (TOB)
The entry tool for PSP setups. Drop one time frame. Find the final opposing candle inside the PSP. Wait for validation. Entry with precision.
What It Is
A True Order Block is the final bearish candle inside a bullish PSP candle (candle 2), or the final bullish candle inside a bearish PSP candle — found one time frame below where the PSP formed. The most precise way to enter within a PSP setup.
The Process
-
PSP candle (candle 2) must fully close on the higher time frame.
-
Drop exactly one time frame lower (15min PSP → 5min TOB / 1H PSP → 15min TOB / 4H PSP → 1H TOB).
-
Bullish PSP → find the final BEARISH candle within candle 2. Bearish PSP → find the final BULLISH candle.
-
Mark the open of that candle.
-
Wait for price to close above it (bullish) or below it (bearish) to validate the TOB.
-
Entry at the retest of the TOB. Stop on the PSP high/low.
Stacking Entry Models
For the absolute highest precision, once price enters the TOB on the 5-min, drop to the 1-min and look for a lower time frame entry model — an inversion gap, a small swing point, or a 1-min SSMT. Enter from the 1-min confirmation inside the 5-min TOB. This gives you the tightest stop and the largest RR.

Precision Entry
