The short version
CRTLAB found every order block behind a break of structure on USDJPY from 2022-07-01 to 2026-11-06: 6,720 on the 15-minute chart, about 5.3 a day. Here is how often price returned to them and broke them, next to fake zones placed at random by the same rules, and a chart that opens on USDJPY so you can test your own order-block entries.
What USDJPY's order blocks did within 24 hours (measured)
Price came back to a 15-minute USDJPY order block within 24 hours on 85.3% of zones, and broke through it on 64.5%. A fake zone of the same size, seeded the same distance from price, was revisited on 83.4% and broken on 63.9%.
If the real zone and the fake one behave alike, the block is not doing the work on its own: the edge, if there is one, is in which blocks you take and how you enter. That is exactly what a replay measures.
| USDJPY | Zones | Revisited 24h | Fake zone revisited | Broken 24h | Fake zone broken |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 15-minute | 6,720 | 85.3% | 83.4% | 64.5% | 63.9% |
