=== 🧪 MOBR Quick Checklist ===
  * 1–3 bar consolidation zone
  * Liquidity sweep just outside zone
  * Engulfing or pin bar reversal
  * Retest of the OB → entry
  * Tight SL just beyond structure

===== 🔄 What is a Micro Order Block Reversal? =====

A **Micro Order Block Reversal** is a high-precision entry setup used by smart money and scalpers. It occurs when price creates a small **order block (OB)** through brief consolidation, then **fakes out** or sweeps liquidity, and **reverses direction**.

==== 🧠 What Is It? ====
  * A **micro order block** is a tiny consolidation zone (1–3 candles) where large players accumulate positions.
  * Price **breaks structure**, **sweeps liquidity**, and then **retests** the OB before reversing.
  * This gives early entries with **tight stop losses**.

==== 🔍 How to Spot It ====
  * ✅ Look for **1–3 candle consolidation** near a recent swing high/low
  * ✅ Watch for a **fake breakout** (liquidity sweep) just above/below the zone
  * ✅ Wait for a **snap-back move** with a strong **reversal candle** (engulfing, pin bar)
  * ✅ **Enter** on the **retest** of the OB (a wick back into the zone)
  * ✅ **Stop Loss**: Just outside the wick or structure break

==== 🎯 Why It Works ====
  * Captures **smart money entries** early
  * Offers **high reward-to-risk** setups
  * Effective in **reversals** or **range-bound markets**

=== ✅ Micro Order Block Reversal ===
**Example:**  
  * **On a 1-minute chart, price consolidates with 3 small candles after making a local low.** 
  * **It sweeps just below the range**, **then prints a bullish engulfing candle __that closes above the OB__.**  

  * **Trade Entry:** Long on retest wick back into the OB.  
  * **Stop Loss:** Just below the OB low.  
  * **Target:** VWAP or mid-range.  

**Why it worked:** Liquidity was grabbed below structure, and smart money reversed price.
