Rejection Block Tool
Identical feature set to the Order Block tool, with distinct purple default colors for easy visual separation. Mark bullish and bearish rejection blocks with auto-extend, midpoint, size display, risk readouts, templates and alerts.
Note: The Rejection Block tool shares the same settings as the Order Block tool. The only differences are the default colors (purple-tinted for rejection blocks) and the detection type. All property groups, ranges and behaviors are identical.
