📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Order blocks occur when there is a high amount of market orders exist on a price range. It is possible to find order blocks using specific formations on the chart. One of which this indicator uses requires a large engulfing candlestick right after another one of the opposite direction. Then if the price comes back to retest the area that two candlesticks create, then it's an order block pattern.
Propulsion blocks are a specific type of order block used in the trading methodology. They build on the concept of order blocks and aim to identify potential areas for strong price movements. They are detected when a candlestick wicks to any existing order block, retesting it. Then a strong momentum in the direction of the order block is needed for the propulsion block to get created. Check this example :
You can use them as entry / exit points, or for confirmations for your trades. For example, a successful retest attempt to a bullish propulsion block might hint a strong bullish momentum. This indicator works best when used together with other ICT concepts.
🚩UNIQUENESS
Propulsion blocks can help traders identify key levels in a chart, and can be used mainly for confirmation. This indicator can identify and show them automatically in your chart, and provides customization settings for order & propulsion block detection and invalidation. Another capability of the indicator is that it combines overlapping order & propulsion blocks so you will have a clean look at the chart without any overlapping zones.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Show Historic Zones -> This setting will hide invalidated propulsion blocks if enabled.
Max Distance To Last Bar -> This setting defines the maximum range that the indicator will find propulsion blocks to the past. Higher options will make older zones visible.
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Order Block & Propulsion Block Invalidation.
Swing Length -> Swing length is used when finding order block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller order blocks.

GRAB or TrendStrength Bars with Highlights[Salty]GRAB or TrendStrength Bars with Propulsion Dots and Highlights for Squeeze Pro, CCI-Arrows, and SlowStoch
This indicator shows GRAB or TrendStrength candles and allows several moving averages to be displayed at the same time.
It has arrows and diamonds above or below the candles to show CCI values above 100 or below -100 with the arrow pointing in the direction of the momentum.
Diamonds indicate slightly weaker momentum than arrows, but still consider strong.
It has background coloring that is light green to show bullish trends and light red to show bearish trends that are derived from slow stochastics.
In general Darker colors are used for down moves and lighter colors are use to show up moves. Also, red indicates bearish, and green indicates bullish throughout.
It has yellow background to show squeezes with additional Squeeze Pro information shown at the bottom of the chart in the form of letters and momentum arrows.
L = Low compression squeeze, S = Normal Squeeze, and H = High Compression Squeeze.
It has a set of propulsion dots for each Moving Average. The trend is consider bullish when green colored dots print, and bearish when red dots print.
3 ATR Keltner channels are printed. The first two show the values used by the squeeze by default
2 Bolinger Bands are displayed based on the values used by the Squeeze by default.
1 VWAP line may be displayed.
TIP: overlaying the TICK symbol is great for confirming a bias where positive values are bullish and negative values are bearish.
