ICT Suspension BlocksICT Suspension Blocks Indicator
The ICT Suspension Blocks (SB) indicator automatically detects and highlights suspension blocks on your chart — powerful price zones based on volume imbalances that act as strong support/resistance levels.
🔎 What is a Suspension Block?
A suspension block is formed when a single candle shows volume imbalance at both its high and low, creating a “suspension effect” where price often reacts.
Works similarly to a Fair Value Gap (FVG)
Acts as a high-probability reaction zone
Provides traders with clear reference points for entries, exits, and risk management
📊 How the Indicator Works
Identifies bullish and bearish suspension blocks using body gap imbalances.
Draws colored zones (green = bullish, red = bearish) directly on the chart.
Extends zones forward until they are inversed by price action.
Once inversed, zones switch to a neutral color, allowing traders to annotate/extend them manually if desired.
⚙️ Features
Customizable colors for bullish, bearish, and inversed zones
Extend blocks indefinitely forward or limit them to a set number of bars
Adjustable maximum number of displayed blocks for performance control
✅ Why Use This Indicator?
Quickly spot high-probability price reaction zones
Identify strong support/resistance levels created by institutional order flow
Combine with other ICT concepts (FVGs, order blocks, liquidity grabs) for confluence
