}Frequently Asked Questions
How does this SMC algorithm determine Order Blocks?
The algorithm searches for the last opposite-colored candle before a rapid impulse expansion that creates an imbalance (Fair Value Gap), verifying volume is at least 1.5x above standard deviation.
Is this strategy compatible with MT4 / MT5 via webhook?
Yes. Backpulse connects your TradingView SMC webhook alerts directly to MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 with sub-300ms execution.
