How IDEA is measured
Zone Terminal tracks IDEA on finished 5-minute candles. A Break of Structure needs a candle to close beyond a confirmed swing level; the last opposing candle before that move becomes the Order Block, kept only when a Fair Value Gap or a strong displacement confirms it. From there the terminal derives the zone (Z), the invalidation level and the next untouched liquidity pools.
IDEA isn't in the first release's ranked list yet. Tell us you trade it when you join the waitlist, and it moves up the queue for the next batch of stocks.
