SSMT + HSSMT Detector- Q to Q Analysis- (by FINOR V10.0)This script detects SSMT (Same-Side Market Trend) and HSSMT (Hidden Same-Side Market Trend) divergences between three symbols, analyzed strictly from Q to Q.
It identifies divergences and structural gaps between consecutive Q periods to highlight key intermarket inefficiencies.
🧭 Key Features:
3-Symbol SMT Analysis: Compare up to three correlated assets in real time.
Q-Based Logic: Detects highs and lows only within each Q, and measures gaps between consecutive Qs for precision.
Multiple Time Scopes:
🕐 Daily SMT
🕑 Session SMT
🕒 90-minute SMT
🕓 22.5-minute SMT
Visual Clarity: Automatic labels mark SMT and HSSMT events directly on the chart.
Smart Alerts: Real-time alerts notify you immediately when new SMT conditions are detected.
Custom Inputs: Define your own symbols, time filters, and visual preferences.
⚙️ How It Works:
The script evaluates swing highs and lows inside each Q for the selected symbols.
When structural divergence is detected — such as one symbol making a new high while another does not — it signals an SSMT.
Hidden divergences within continuation structures are labeled as HSSMT.
The tool also measures gaps between consecutive Qs, providing additional insights into displacement and imbalance behavior across related markets.
📘 Use Cases:
Confirm or anticipate institutional liquidity sweeps.
Validate SMT setups across correlated indices or pairs.
Detect high-probability continuation or reversal zones within Smart Money frameworks.

cd_correlation_analys_Cxcd_correlation_analys_Cx
General:
This indicator is designed for correlation analysis by classifying stocks (487 in total) and indices (14 in total) traded on Borsa İstanbul (BIST) on a sectoral basis.
Tradingview's sector classifications (20) have been strictly adhered to for sector grouping.
Depending on user preference, the analysis can be performed within sectors, between sectors, or manually (single asset).
Let me express my gratitude to the code author, @fikira, beforehand; you will find the reason for my thanks in the context.
Details:
First, let's briefly mention how this indicator could have been prepared using the classic method before going into details.
Classically, assets could be divided into groups of forty (40), and the analysis could be performed using the built-in function:
ta.correlation(source1, source2, length) → series float.
I chose sectoral classification because I believe there would be a higher probability of assets moving together, rather than using fixed-number classes.
In this case, 21 arrays were formed with the following number of elements:
(3, 11, 21, 60, 29, 20, 12, 3, 31, 5, 10, 11, 6, 48, 73, 62, 16, 19, 13, 34 and indices (14)).
However, you might have noticed that some arrays have more than 40 elements. This is exactly where @Fikira's indicator came to the rescue. When I examined their excellent indicator, I saw that it could process 120 assets in a single operation. (I believe this was the first limit overrun; thanks again.)
It was amazing to see that data for 3 pairs could be called in a single request using a special method.
You can find the details here:
When I adapted it for BIST, I found it sufficient to call data for 2 pairs instead of 3 in a single go. Since asset prices are regular and have 2 decimal places, I used a fixed multiplier of $10^8$ and a fixed decimal count of 2 in Fikira's formulas.
With this method, the (high, low, open, close) values became accessible for each asset.
The summary up to this point is that instead of the ready-made formula + groups of 40, I used variable-sized groups and the method I will detail now.
Correlation/harmony/co-movement between assets provides advantages to market participants. Coherent assets are expected to rise or fall simultaneously.
Therefore, to convert co-movement into a mathematical value, I defined the possible movements of the current candle relative to the previous candle bar over a certain period (user-defined). These are:
Up := high > high and low > low
Down := high < high and low < low
Inside := high <= high and low >= low
Outside := high >= high and low <= low and NOT Inside.
Ignore := high = low = open = close
If both assets performed the same movement, 1 was added to the tracking counter.
If (Up-Up), (Down-Down), (Inside-Inside), or (Outside-Outside), then counter := counter + 1.
If the period length is 100 and the counter is 75, it means there is 75% co-movement.
Corr = counter / period ($75/100$)
Average = ta.sma(Corr, 100) is obtained.
The highest coefficients recorded in the array are presented to the user in a table.
From the user menu options, the user can choose to compare:
• With assets in its own sector
• With assets in the selected sector
• By activating the confirmation box and manually entering a single asset for comparison.
Table display options can be adjusted from the Settings tab.
In the attached examples:
Results for AKBNK stock from the Finance sector compared with GARAN stock from the same sector:
Timeframe: Daily, Period: 50 => Harmony 76% (They performed the same movement in 38 out of 50 bars)
Comment: Opposite movements at swing high and low levels may indicate a change in the direction of the price flow (SMT).
Looking at ASELS from the Electronic Technology sector over the last 30 daily candles, they performed the same movements by 40% with XU100, 73.3% (22/30) with XUTEK (Technology Index), and 86.9% according to the averages.
Comment: It is more appropriate to follow ASELS stock with XUTEK (Technology index) instead of the general index (XU100). Opposite movements at swing high and low levels may indicate a change in the direction of the price flow (SMT).
Again, when ASELS stock is taken on H1 instead of daily, and the length is 100 instead of 30, the harmony rate is seen to be 87%.
Please share your thoughts and criticisms regarding the indicator, which I prepared with a bit of an educational purpose specifically for BIST.
Happy trading.
Smart Money Techniques (SMT) Divergence by RiseSmart Money Divergence - Early Reversal Indicator
This sophisticated indicator identifies and analyzes Smart Money Divergence patterns by systematically examining pivot point relationships between a primary asset and a secondary correlated instrument.
The indicator establishes divergence signals through precise algorithmic detection when pivot pairs exhibit opposing directional patterns between the primary and secondary assets. This sophisticated analysis reveals institutional positioning discrepancies that often precede significant market reversals.
Following divergence confirmation, the indicator provides comprehensive visualization tools and optional alert systems to capitalize on these high-probability trading opportunities. Advanced filtering capabilities allow traders to customize sensitivity levels, timeframe parameters, and styling to align with their specific trading methodology.
This powerful solution delivers unmatched functionality for traders seeking to identify and exploit Smart Money positioning through multi-asset divergence analysis. With its robust detection algorithms and granular customization options, it provides capabilities that surpass conventional divergence indicators by incorporating institutional flow analysis principles highly regarded in professional trading circles.
What is Smart Money Divergence?
Smart Money Divergence is another name for Smart Money Techniques (SMT). These patterns appear when comparing swing points, of adjustable strength, between correlated assets...
When an asset makes a higher high while the other makes a lower high.
When an asset makes a lower low while the other makes a higher low.
Potential Divergence
This indicator allows users to see potential SMT before the second swing point of the pair forms. It is showcased with different styling until it's confirmation, when enough bars pass based on the user-defined strength parameter.
Multi-Timeframe
Our tool allows traders to have higher/lower-timeframe divergences displayed on the chart of their choice, further automating their trading strategies.
Input Settings:
This tool offers a lot of customizable options, which could be overwhelming to some users. Below you will find an in-depth definition of every input's purpose to complement the tooltips that can be found directly in the indicator's settings.
Symbol 📊
This parameter let's users define the asset used in search of SMT divergence. We recommend using correlated assets, like NASDAQ100 with S&P500 or EURUSD with GBPUSD...
Timeframe 🔧
This is where users choose, if they wish, to set a different timeframe which will be utilized when looking for divergences.
Mode ⚙️
Default -> Displays all SMTs.
Bullish -> Displays only bullish SMTs using low pivots.
Bearish -> Displays only bearish SMTs using high pivots.
Historical 📜
This indicator allows users to display only a specific amount of SMTs... The historical input will display the specified amount of divergences up to 25, which will then showcase all available SMTs.
Parameters
This section defines the main parameters uses in establishing and managing SMT divergences.
Pivot Strength -> Number of bars to the left and right for pivot considerations.
Pivot Lookback -> Amount of past pivots to maintain in memory.
Allow Time Difference? -> Allow up to one bar difference when comparing pivots.

Checkbox -> Activate this time filter.
Time Range-> Define the time range which will only validate SMTs during.
Remove After Invalidation? -> Remove drawings from invalidated SMTs.
Style
Colors for bullish and bearish SMTs respectively.
Line styling and width
Potential Divergence -> checkbox and line styling.
Text
Label Contents :
Long -> "Smart Money Divergence"
Short -> "SMT"
None -> No text.
Include Symbol? -> Include the comparing asset's symbol within label text.
Size .
Font (Default or Monospace) and Format (None, Italic or Bold).
Align -> vertical and horizontal positioning.
This indicator is for educational and informational purposes only. Past performance and historical patterns do not guarantee future results. Trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Always conduct your own analysis and consider your financial situation before making any trading decisions. The identification of patterns does not constitute trading advice.
Liquidity Grab Strategy SuvorovLiquidity grab strategy
Description:
This indicator is built around the Liquidity Grab Strategy, which identifies and reacts to stop hunts and false breakouts at key swing highs and lows. It detects where liquidity is likely to be resting (e.g., above highs or below lows) and provides trade signals when that liquidity is taken and price begins to reverse.
Core Features:
Liquidity Detection: Automatically identifies and marks key swing highs and lows where stop-losses are likely to accumulate.
Entry Signals: Generates BUY/SELL signals after a liquidity sweep and a confirmed reversal — based on price action, volume, or structure shifts.
Stop Loss & Take Profit Zones: Visualizes stop-loss just beyond the liquidity wick and take-profit near the next major structure point, with configurable Risk/Reward ratios.
False Signal Filters: Optional filters based on volume spikes, RSI divergence, or market structure confirmation.
Multi-Timeframe Logic: Supports separate timeframes for structure detection and signal confirmation (e.g., structure on 1H, entry on 5m).
Multi Timeframe BOS & rBOSThis is the same Multi-Timeframe Break of Structure and Market Structure Shift posted by Lenny_Kiruthu. However, the only difference is the naming of Market Structure Shift to rBOS (Break of Structure Reverse). To me, they are all break of structures when previous peaks or valleys are violated. The only difference is in sequence. Once a sequence of BOS reverses, then a new sequence begins. To me, this simplifies the various terminology incorporated by different systems such as ICT or SMT which adds unnecessary complexity.

Price Level HighlighterThis indicator is a minimalist and highly effective tool designed for traders who incorporate institutional concepts into their analysis. It automates the identification of key psychological price levels and adds a unique, dynamic layer of information to help you focus on the most relevant area of the market. Inspired by core principles of market structure and liquidity, it serves as a powerful visual guide for anticipating potential support and resistance.
The core idea is simple: specific price points, particularly those ending in round numbers or common increments, often act as magnets or barriers for price. While many indicators simply plot static lines, this tool goes further by intelligently highlighting the single most significant level in real-time. This dynamic feature allows you to quickly pinpoint where the market is currently engaged, offering a clear reference point for your trading decisions. It reduces chart clutter and enhances your focus on the immediate price action.
Features
Customizable Price Range: Easily define a specific Start Price and End Price to focus the indicator on the most relevant area of your chart, preventing unnecessary clutter.
Adjustable Increment: Change the interval of the lines to suit your trading style, from high-frequency increments (e.g., 10 points) for scalping to wider intervals (e.g., 50 or 100 points) for swing trading.
Intelligent Highlighting: A key feature that automatically identifies and highlights the single horizontal line closest to the current market price with a distinct color and thickness. This gives you an immediate visual cue for the most relevant price level.
Highly Customizabile: Adjust the line color, style, and width for both the main lines and the highlighted line to fit your personal chart aesthetic.
Usage
Apply the indicator to your chart.
In the settings, input your desired price range (Start Price and End Price) to match the market you are trading.
Set the Price Increment to your preferred density.
Monitor the chart for the highlighted line. This is your active price level and a key area of interest.
Combine this tool with other confirmation signals (e.g., order blocks, fair value gaps, liquidity pools) to build higher-probability trade setups.
Best Practices
Pairing: This tool is effective across all markets, including stocks, forex, indices, and crypto. It is particularly useful for volatile markets where price moves rapidly between psychological levels.
Mindful Analysis: Use the highlighted level as a reference point for your analysis, not as a standalone signal. A break above or below this level can signify a shift in market control.
Backtesting: Always backtest the indicator on your preferred market and timeframe to understand how it performs under different conditions.
cd_indiCATor_CxGeneral:
This indicator is the redesigned, simplified, and feature-enhanced version of the previously shared indicators:
cd_cisd_market_Cx, cd_HTF_Bias_Cx, cd_sweep&cisd_Cx, cd_SMT_Sweep_CISD_Cx, and cd_RSI_divergence_Cx.
Within the holistic setup, the indicator tracks:
• HTF bias
• Market structure (trend) in the current timeframe
• Divergence between selected pairs (SMT)
• Divergence between price and RSI values
• Whether the price is in an important area (FVG, iFVG, and Volume Imbalance)
• Whether the price is at a key level
• Whether the price is within a user-defined special timeframe
The main condition and trigger of the setup is an HTF sweep with CISD confirmation on the aligned timeframe.
When the main condition occurs, the indicator provides the user with a real-time market status summary, enriched with other data.

What’s new?
-In the SMT module:
• Triad SMT analysis (e.g.: NQ1!, ES1!, and YM1!)
• Dyad SMT analysis (e.g.: EURUSD, GBPUSD)
• Alternative pair definition and divergence analysis for non-correlated assets
o For crypto assets (xxxUSDT <--> xxxUSDT.P) (e.g.: SOLUSDT.P, SOLUSDT)
o For stocks, divergence analysis by comparing the asset with its value in another currency
(BIST:xxx <--> BIST:xxx / EURTRY), (BAT:xxx <--> BAT:xxx / EURUSD)
-Special timeframe definition
-Configurable multi-option alarm center
-Alternative summary presentation (check list / status table / stickers)
________________________________________
Details and usage:
The user needs to configure four main sections:
• Pair and correlated pairs
• Timeframes (Auto / Manual)
• Alarm center
• Visual arrangement and selections
Pair Selections:
The user should adjust trading pairs according to their trade preferences.
Examples:
• Triad: NQ1!-ES1!-YM1!, BTC-ETH-Total3
• Dyad: NAS100-US500, XAUUSD-XAGUSD, XRPUSDT-XLMUSDT
Single pairs:
-Crypto Assets:
If crypto assets are not in the triad or dyad list, they are automatically matched as:
Perpetual <--> Spot (e.g.: DOGEUSDT.P <--> DOGEUSDT)
If the asset is already defined in a dyad list (e.g., DOGE – SHIB), the dyad definition takes priority.
________________________________________
-Stocks:
If stocks are defined in the dyad list (e.g.: BIST:THYAO <--> BIST:PGSUS), the dyad definition takes priority.
If not defined, the stock is compared with its value in the selected currency.
For example, in the Turkish Stock Exchange:
BIST:FENER stock, if EUR is chosen from the menu, is compared as BIST:FENER / OANDA:EURTRY.
Here, “OANDA” and the stock market currency (TRY) are automatically applied for the exchange rate.
For NYSE:XOM, its pair will be NYSE:XOM / EURUSD.
________________________________________
Timeframes:
By default, the menu is set to “Auto.” In this mode, aligned timeframes are automatically selected.
Aligned timeframes (LTF-HTF):
1m-15m, 3m-30m, 5m-1h, 15m-4h, 1h-D, 4h-W, D-M
Example: if monitoring the chart on 5m:
• 1h sweep + 5m CISD confirmation
• D sweep + 1h CISD confirmation (bias)
• 5m market structure
• 1h SMT and 1h RSI divergence analysis
For manual selections, the user must define the timeframes for Sweep and HTF bias.
FVG, iFVG, and Volume Imbalance timeframes must be manually set in both modes.
________________________________________
Alarm Center:
The user can choose according to preferred criteria.
Each row has options.
“Yes” → included in alarm condition.
“No” → not included in alarm condition.
If special timeframe criteria are added to the alarm, the hour range must also be entered in the same row, and the “Special Zone” tab (default: -4) should be checked.
Key level timeframes and plot options must be set manually.
Example alarm setup:
Alongside the main Sweep + CISD condition, if we also want HTF bias + Trend alignment + key level (W, D) and special timeframe (09:00–11:00), we should set up the menu as follows:
________________________________________
Visual Arrangement and Selections:
Users can control visibility with checkboxes according to their preferences.
In the Table & Sticker tab, table options and labels can be controlled.
• Summary Table has two options: Check list and Status Table
• From the HTF bias section, real-time bias and HTF sweep zone (optional) are displayed
• The RSI divergence section only shows divergence analysis results
• The SMT 2 sub-section only functions when triad is selected
Labels are shown on the bar where the sweep + CISD condition occurs, displaying the current situation.
With the Check box option, all criteria’s real-time status is shown (True/False).
Status Table provides a real-time summary table.
Although the menu may look crowded, most settings only need to be adjusted once during initial use.
________________________________________
What’s next?
• Suggestions from users
• Standard deviation projection
• Mitigation/order blocks (cd special mtg)
• PSP /TPD
________________________________________
Final note:
Every additional criterion in the alarm settings will affect alarm frequency.
Multiple conditions occurring at the same time is not, by itself, sufficient to enter a trade—you should always apply your own judgment.
Looking forward to your feedback and suggestions.
Happy trading! 🎉
SMT (DXY) DIVERGENCESThis indicator detects Smart Money Technique (SMT) Divergences between the chart symbol and up to two comparison symbols defined in the settings.
It identifies swing highs and swing lows on correlated/uncorrelated instruments, compares their highs and lows, and determines possible divergences.
🔷 What It Detects
-Bullish SMT Divergence: When the lows of the chart symbol slope in the opposite direction of the comparison symbol’s lows.
-Bearish SMT Divergence: When the highs of the chart symbol slope in the opposite direction of the comparison symbol’s highs.
-Multi-Symbol Compatibility: Ability to compare the main symbol with one or two external tickers (default: DXY and GBPUSD).
-Negative Divergence Option: The inversion feature allows comparison with opposite-moving charts.
🔷 Calculation Logic
-Swing Detection: Swing highs and lows are confirmed using pivot-based logic.
-Comparison: Slopes of highs and lows are calculated for both the chart symbol and the comparison symbols.
-Divergence Identification: If slopes point in opposite directions, an SMT divergence (bullish or bearish) is marked.
-Visualization: Lines and labels (“+ SMT” or “– SMT”) are drawn on the chart. Historical lines can be kept or cleared depending on user settings.
🔷 Visual
Bearish SMT: Downward line with “– SMT” label.
Bullish SMT: Upward line with “+ SMT” label.
Style Options: Predefined color schemes (TLAB, standard, monochrome) or fully customizable colors.
Line Style: Solid, dashed, or dotted.
🔷 Customization Options
-Show Historical: Decide whether past divergences remain visible on the chart.
-Comparison Symbols: Define up to two external tickers, with optional inversion.
-Swing Lengths: Preconfigured pivot lengths automatically adapt to the selected timeframe (Daily, 4H, 1H, 5m/15m).
-Lines & Labels: Enable or disable bullish/bearish SMT divergences and their annotations.
🔷 Indicator Usage
Select the comparison symbol with positive or negative correlation.
Wait for the “+ SMT” or “– SMT” marker to appear on the chart.
Divergences can be used as contextual confluence when studying potential market shifts:
A + SMT marker may suggest bullish divergence.
A – SMT marker may suggest bearish divergence.
Killzones SMT + IFVG detectorKillzones SMT + IFVG Detector
Summary
This strategy implements a specific intraday workflow inspired by ICT-style concepts.
It combines:
Killzone session levels (recording untouched highs/lows)
SMT divergence between NQ and ES (exclusive sweep logic)
IFVG confirmation (3-bar imbalance + width filter + inversion guard)
and an optional smart exit engine
The components are not simply mashed together: they interact in sequence.
A setup only confirms if all conditions line up (time window → untouched level sweep → divergence → valid IFVG → confirmation candle → risk filter).
Workflow
Killzones & session levels
Tracks highs/lows inside default killzones (19:00–23:00, 01:00–04:00, 08:30–10:00, 11:00–12:00, 12:30–15:00, chart timezone).
Stores untouched levels forward; sweeps trigger candidate signals.
SMT divergence (exclusive sweep)
Bullish SMT : one index sweeps its low while the other remains above its session low.
Bearish SMT : one index sweeps its high while the other remains below its session high.
Detection supports “Sweep (Cross)” or “Exact Tick.”
Session IDs are tracked so once a side has fired, later re-touches can’t re-trigger .
IFVG confirmation
Locks the first valid 3-bar IFVG after SMT.
Confirmation requires a candle close beyond the IFVG boundary in the direction of the close.
IFVGs must meet a minimum width filter (default 1.0 point).
Inversion guard: ignores IFVGs already inverted before SMT.
Optional “re-lock” keeps tracking the latest IFVG until confirmation/expiry.
Smart exit engine
Initial stop from opposite wick (+ buffer).
Fixed TP (default 40 points).
Dynamic stop escalation at progress thresholds (BE → 50% → 80% of target).
Safety gates
Weekend lockout (Fri 16:40 → Sun 18:00).
Same-bar sweep of high & low cancels setups.
Max initial stop filter skips oversized setups.
Optional cooldown bars.
Alerts
SMT Bullish/Bearish : divergence detected this bar.
Confirm Long/Short : IFVG confirmation triggered.
Default Strategy Properties (used in screenshots/backtests)
Initial capital: $25,000
Order size: 1 contract
Commission: $1.25 per contract per side
Slippage: 2 ticks
Backtest window: Jun 16, 2025 – Sep 14, 2025
These settings are intentionally conservative. If you change them, your results will differ.
How to use
Apply on an NQ or ES futures chart (1–5 min).
Choose your killzones and detection mode.
Select confirmation symbol (NQ, ES, or “Sweeper”).
Enable/disable IFVG re-lock.
Review signals and use alerts for automation if desired.
Limitations
Strict filters reduce trade count; extend backtest window for more samples.
Works best on NQ/ES; not validated elsewhere.
Past performance is not indicative of future results.
This is an educational tool ; not financial advice.
Sequential SMT (QT)Sequential SMT (Quarterly Theory)
Price Divergences Between Correlated Asset Pairs Across Time Quarters
This indicator identifies Sequential SMT patterns - divergences between correlated assets across consecutive time periods. When price action diverges between traditionally correlated pairs, it may signal potential reversals or distribution phases.
How It Works
The indicator divides the trading day into specific time quarters and analyzes price extremes within each period. It compares consecutive quarters to detect divergences:
Bullish Pattern: One asset makes a lower low while its correlated pair makes a higher/equal low
Bearish Pattern: One asset makes a higher high while its correlated pair makes a lower/equal high
This implementation enhances standard divergence detection by:
Analyzing multiple timeframe cycles simultaneously (dual-cycle approach)
Using both wick and body-based analysis for hidden divergences
Incorporating True Open levels as confluence filters
Providing visual quarter/cycle boundaries for context
Key Features
Dual-Cycle Detection
M5 Timeframe: Tracks Daily Cycles (6h) AND 90-minute quarters simultaneously
M1 Timeframe: Tracks 90-minute cycles AND 22.5-minute quarters simultaneously
Both cycle types run concurrently for multiple confluence levels
Divergence Analysis
Standard Patterns: Identifies divergences using full candle ranges
Hidden Patterns: Body-only analysis for concealed divergence detection
5 Configurable Correlation Pairs
Pre-configured with major correlations:
BTC/ETH (Cryptocurrency pairs)
NQ/ES (Index futures)
EUR/GBP (Forex majors)
Gold/Silver (Precious metals)
Custom pair slot
Visual Components
Quarter Boxes: Color-coded Q1-Q4 periods showing price ranges
Cycle Frames: Larger timeframe boundaries for context
SSMT Lines: Connect divergence points between quarters
True Opens: TDO (daily) and TSO (session) reference levels
Dual Labels: Period identification for each timeframe
Trading Application
This indicator is designed to identify divergence patterns that may precede reversals:
Signals are strongest when divergences occur near True Open levels
Multiple timeframe confluence increases signal reliability
Best used in conjunction with other technical analysis methods
The indicator is particularly useful for traders who:
Trade correlated asset pairs
Focus on intraday reversals
Use time-based market structure analysis
Combine multiple confluence factors for entries
Customization
Toggle individual components, adjust colors, control visual density. Configure correlation pairs to match your trading instruments. Debug panel available for detailed analysis.
Important Note
This indicator identifies divergence patterns based on mathematical relationships between correlated assets. Like all technical indicators, it should be used as part of a comprehensive trading approach with proper risk management.
---
Based on time-quarter analysis and correlation divergence concepts. Designed to help identify potential reversal zones through systematic divergence detection across multiple time cycles.
cd_SMT_Sweep_CISD_CxGeneral
This indicator is designed to show trading opportunities after sweeps of higher timeframe (HTF) highs/lows and, if available, Smart Money Technique (SMT) divergence with a correlated asset, followed by confirmation from a lower timeframe change in state delivery (CISD).
Users can track SMT, Sweep, and CISD levels across nine different timeframes.
________________________________________
Usage and Details
Commonly correlated timeframes are available in the menu by default. Users can also enter other compatible timeframes manually if necessary.
The indicator output is presented as:
• A summary table
• Display on HTF candles
• CISD levels shown as lines
Users can disable any of these from the menu.
Presentations of selected timeframes are displayed only if they are greater than or equal to the active chart timeframe.
From the Show/Hide section, you can control the display of:
• SMT table
• Sweep table
• HTF candles
• CISD levels
• HTF boxes aligned with the active timeframe
________________________________________
SMT Analysis
To receive analysis, users must enter correlated assets in the menu (or adjust them as needed).
If asset X is paired with correlated asset Y, then a separate entry for Y correlated with X is not required.
Four correlation pairs are included by default. Users should check them according to their broker/exchange or define new ones.
Checkboxes at the beginning of each row allow activation/deactivation of pairs.
SMT analysis is performed on the last three candles of each selected HTF.
If one asset makes a new high while the correlated one does not (or one makes a new low while the other does not), this is considered SMT and will be displayed both in the table and on the chart.
Charts without defined correlated assets will not display an SMT table.
________________________________________
Sweep Analysis
For the selected timeframes, the current candle is compared with the previous one.
If price violates the previous level and then pulls back behind it, this is considered a sweep. It is displayed in both the table and on the chart.
Within correlated pairs, the analysis is done separately and shown only in the table.
Example with correlated and non-correlated pairs:
• In the table, X = false, ✓ = true.
• The Sweep Table has two columns for Bullish and Bearish results.
• For correlated pairs, both values appear side by side.
• For undefined pairs, only the active asset is shown.
Example 1: EURUSD and GBPUSD pair
• If both sweep → ✓ ✓
• If one sweeps, the other does not → ✓ X
• If neither sweeps → X X
Example 2: AUDUSD with no correlated pair defined
• If sweep → ✓
• If no sweep → X
________________________________________
HTF Candles
For every HTF enabled by the user, the last three candles (including the current one) are shown on the chart.
SMT and sweep signals are marked where applicable.
________________________________________
CISD Levels
For the selected timeframes, bullish and bearish CISD levels are plotted on the chart.
________________________________________
HTF Boxes
HTF boxes aligned with the active timeframe are displayed on the chart.
Box border colors change according to whether the active HTF candle is bullish or bearish.
________________________________________
How to Read the Chart?
Let’s break down the example below:
• Active asset: Nasdaq
• Correlated asset: US500 (defined in the menu, confirmed in the table bottom row)
• Active timeframe: H1 → therefore, the HTF box is shown for Daily
• Since a correlated pair is defined, the indicator runs both SMT and Sweep analysis for the selected timeframes. Without correlation, only Sweep analysis would be shown.
Table is prepared for H1 and higher timeframes (as per user selection and active TF).
Observations:
• SMT side → H1 timeframe shows a bearish warning
• Sweep side → Bearish column shows X and ✓
o X → no sweep on Nasdaq
o ✓ → sweep on US500
Meaning: US500 made a new high (+ sweep) while Nasdaq did not → SMT formed.
The last column of the table shows the compatible LTF for confirmation.
For H1, it suggests checking the 5m timeframe.
On the chart:
• CISD levels for selected timeframes are drawn
• SMT line is marked on H1 candles
• Next step: move to 5m chart for CISD confirmation before trading (with other confluences).
Similarly, the Daily row in the table shows a Bullish Sweep on US500.
________________________________________
Alerts
Two alert options are available:
1. Activate Alert (SMT + Sweep):
Triggers if both SMT and Sweep occur in the selected timeframes. (Classic option)
2. Activate Alert (Sweep + Sweep):
Triggers if sweeps occur in both assets of a correlated pair at the same timeframe.
Interpretation:
If SMT + Sweep are already present on higher timeframes, and simultaneous sweeps appear on lower timeframes, this may indicate a strong directional move.
Of course, this must be validated with CISD and other confluences.
________________________________________
HTF CISD Levels
Although CISD levels act as confirmation levels in their own timeframe, observing how price reacts to HTF CISD levels can provide valuable insights for intraday analysis.
POIs overlapping with these levels may be higher priority.
________________________________________
What’s Next in Future Versions?
• Completed CISD confirmations
• Additional alert options
• Plus your feedback and suggestions

SMT for Time-Based Sessions [ufo]SMT for Time-Based Sessions identifies when one asset breaks a session’s high/low while another correlated asset fails to do so. This imbalance often signals engineered liquidity grabs, reversals, or continuation setups. By focusing on divergences within specific trading sessions (London, New York AM, Lunch, New York PM, Asia, Daily or your own custom windows), the tool filters out noise and pinpoints only the most meaningful SMT divergences across multiple symbols in real-time.
Core Concept:
SMT (Smart Money Technique/Tool/Time) is a concept popularized by Inner Circle Trader (ICT) that suggests that when correlated or inversely correlated instruments fail to confirm each other's price movements (e.g., one breaks a high/low while the other doesn’t), it often indicates:
Liquidity manipulation by institutional players
Potential reversal points in the market
Weakness or strength in the current trend
Stop hunt operations before significant moves
This indicator identifies these divergences by comparing your chart symbol against up to two comparison symbols across different sessions and timeframes.
How Time-Based SMT Works:
Unlike basic divergence tools, this indicator is built specifically for Session-Based and Timeframe-Based SMT tracking. It continuously monitors intraday sessions and higher timeframes, then plots divergences the moment they occur.
Time-Based Session SMT
Session Tracking: Monitors highs and lows during each session
Post-Session Analysis: After a session ends, tracks whether price breaks session levels
Divergence Detection: When the main symbol breaks a high/low but comparison symbols don’t (or vice versa), an SMT signal is triggered
(e.g. Nasdaq traded above London high while S&P500 does not)
Visual Confirmation: Lines connect the session reference to the current extreme, with labels showing the diverging session, high/low, and symbol, this information is also displayed in the Info Panel
This will update if a new high/low extreme is made while the SMT is still valid, if invalidated these will be removed from the chart
Example:
This NQ chart includes ES and YM as comparison symbols. At 03:20 AM New York time, both ES and YM broke the Asia session low (20:00 – 00:00), while NQ did not. This creates a bullish session divergence , which the indicator immediately detects and plots.
Although the chart shows three symbols for illustration, you don’t need to manually monitor comparison charts when using this indicator, the SMT divergence will be plotted automatically as soon as it occurs
Consecutive Candle SMT (CC SMT)
Previous Candle Reference: Uses the previous candle's high/low from the selected timeframe
Real-Time Comparison: Monitors if current price breaks these levels across all symbols
Instant Detection: Triggers SMT immediately when divergence occurs
Dynamic Updates: Lines and labels update in real-time as new extremes form and are automatically removed if invalidated
Example:
Here I configured CC SMT Timeframe 1 to monitor the previous 4-hour candle’s high/low. On this NQ chart with ES as a comparison symbol, ES broke above the prior 4-hour high at 14:00 New York time, while NQ did not, showing relative weakness creating a bearish CC SMT divergence
This chart is just an illustration. The indicator will automatically plot SMT divergences on your main chart, regardless of the timeframe you’re viewing
How To Use:
This indicator is not a buy/sell signal on its own. Instead, it is designed to highlight Time-Based SMT divergences so you can combine them with your existing trading strategy or model. It should be used as an extra layer of confluence, helping you confirm trade ideas.
Select your comparison symbols
For example:
Futures: NQ vs ES/YM
Forex: EURUSD vs GBPUSD/DXY(inversely)
Crypto: BTC vs ETH
Commodities: Gold vs Silver
Choose which sessions or candle timeframes you want the indicator to monitor
Watch for divergences the indicator plots when one symbol breaks a high/low while the other does not
Use these divergences as confluence, alongside your own strategy and risk management rules
Key Features:
Multiple Comparison Symbols
Symbol 1 & Symbol 2: Compare your main chart against up to 2 correlated instruments
Symbol Inversion: Perfect for inversely correlated pairs (e.g., EURUSD vs DXY)
Session-Based SMT Tracking
Monitors 7 fully customizable trading sessions with the default being:
London Session (2:00-5:00 NY time)

Daily Session (18:00-18:00 NY time)
Fully customizable session times and names
Automatically detects when the main symbol breaks a session high/low while comparison symbols don't (and vice versa)
Consecutive Candle SMT (CC SMT)
Monitors 3 customizable timeframes
Tracking of divergences based on specific timeframe candles (15min, 60min, 4 hour, weekly, etc.)
Identifies when the current price breaks the previous candle's high/low differently than comparison symbols
Maintains history of past SMTs (configurable)
Timeframe 3 supports custom time shifts for non-standard candle boundaries
Example: 90min timeframe with a +60 shift changes the candle range from:
00:00-01:30, 01:30-03:00 etc
to:
01:00-02:30, 02:30-04:00 etc

Alert System
Configurable alerts for specific sessions or timeframes
Get notified when new divergences appear instantly
Clear, informative alert descriptions
How To Setup Alerts:
Enable the "Enable Alerts" in the settings
Choose which sessions/timeframes to receive alerts for by choosing it in the setting below
(If you select "All Sessions" you will only be alerted for all the sessions you have enabled in the indicator settings)
Create an alert (ALT+A shortcut) or click the the 3 dots on the indicator "Add alert on Session SMT "
- Condition = Session SMT
- Function = Any alert() function call
- Alert name (Message) = Anything you prefer (e.g. SMT Alert)
If you want to create another alert for different settings, first input the new settings in the indicator, then create a new alert.
Note: Previous alerts will continue to notify you based on the settings they were originally set for, even if you change the indicator setting.
How This Helps Your Trading:
This tool automates the heavy lifting of tracking divergences across multiple markets and sessions, continuously monitoring highs and lows in real time and plotting only the most meaningful SMT signals so you can focus on execution, not chart-watching.
Smart Money Time (SMT)SMT Divergence – 90m / 30m / 10m (Prev-Cycle, Real-Time, Trailing)
Purpose:
This indicator finds SMT (Smart Money Technique) divergences between two related markets (e.g., CME_MINI:NQ1! vs CME_MINI:ES1! ). It does this per 90m/30m/10m cycles and only compares the current cycle to the immediately previous cycle —never older. It supports three cycle granularities:
90-minute cycles (9 blocks from 02:30–16:00 NY time)
30-minute sub-cycles (27 blocks)
10-minute sub-cycles (81 blocks; exactly 3 per 30-minute cycle)
For each cycle, the script tracks each symbol’s extreme (highest high for potential bearish SMT, lowest low for potential bullish SMT). When the leader sets a new extreme vs its own previous cycle while the lagger fails to do so vs its previous cycle, an SMT divergence is formed and plotted on the chart in real time. Lines trail as price makes new extremes within the same cycle.
What you’ll see on the chart:
A line from the previous cycle’s extreme to the current cycle’s extreme on the symbol pane where the indicator is applied (Primary A).
An optional text label at the current extreme (e.g., “90m SMT”, “30m SMT”, “10m SMT”).
Lines update (“trail”) as the current cycle goes on. When a new cycle begins, tracking resets for that cycle.
Default styling (editable):
90m SMT: solid, width 1, black
30m SMT: solid, width 1, black
10m SMT: dotted, width 1, black
You can toggle the text on/off and change width, style, and colors separately for 90m, 30m, and 10m.
Signals (definitions)
Bearish SMT: One market makes a Higher High vs its own previous cycle, while the other fails to make a Higher High vs its previous cycle.
Bullish SMT: One market makes a Lower Low vs its own previous cycle, while the other fails to make a Lower Low vs its previous cycle.
The line is drawn on Primary A by default.
Settings (explained)
Symbols
Primary Symbol A – the chart’s “leader/lagger” pane the script draws on.
Comparison Symbol B – the second market used for SMT checks.
Detection toggles
Detect SMT: 90m / 30m / 10m – turn on/off detection for each timeframe.
Note: The script always compares current cycle ↔ previous cycle only.
Validate candle direction
When enabled, the bar that makes the new extreme must also close in the confirming direction on that same market:
Bearish SMT: the bar that made the new Higher High must be a down close (close < open).
Bullish SMT: the bar that made the new Lower Low must be an up close (close > open).
This filter removes many “wick-only” probes and reduces false positives.
Turn off if you prefer to register SMTs on any intrabar extreme, regardless of bar close.
Delete SMT when invalidated
After an SMT forms, if the lagger later breaks the previous extreme it initially failed to break, the divergence is considered invalid and the script deletes the line and its label. (An “SMT invalidated” alert can fire if alerts are enabled.)
Enable alerts
Fires on SMT formed (separate messages for 90m/30m/10m and bullish/bearish) and on SMT invalidated.
To use, click Create Alert on the indicator and choose “Any alert() function call”. Use “Once per bar” (or per bar close) to taste.
Appearance – per timeframe (90m / 30m / 10m)
Bullish/Bearish colors, Line width, Line style, Show text (toggle subtitle label).
Text Options
Text color, Text size, Text offset (vertical spacing from the extreme).
How to use
Add to chart and select two related markets, e.g., NQ (A) vs ES (B).
Choose which cycles to monitor (90m / 30m / 10m).
Optionally enable Validate candle direction to demand a confirming close on the bar that made the extreme.
Watch for plotted SMTs:
Bearish SMT (HH vs no HH) often signals potential weakness
Bullish SMT (LL vs no LL) often signals potential strength
Use SMTs as context/confluence—e.g., near session highs/lows, liquidity pools, PD arrays, or your own levels. Combine with structure, order flow, and risk rules.
Turn on alerts to be notified when SMTs form or are invalidated in real time.
Notes & behavior
New-York session timing: Cycles are fixed windows in America/New_York and automatically handle DST.
Real-time & trailing: Lines trail to the most recent extreme within the same cycle but there’s no look-ahead across cycles.
No repaint across cycles: Each signal is strictly current cycle vs previous cycle.
Cleanup: On invalidation the script deletes the label first, then the line, preventing orphan labels.
Tips
10m SMTs are more frequent/noisier; 90m are fewer but more meaningful. Many traders look for multi-frame agreement (e.g., a 30m SMT aligning with a fresh 10m SMT).
If you want fewer signals, keep Validate candle direction on; if you want maximum sensitivity, turn it off.

FREEDOM - TJR Model\ FREEDOM – TJR Model\ 🚀
\ Automates TJR’s well-known NQ playbook with clean visuals, filters, and alerts—so you can focus on execution.\
\ Core idea\
1. Trade \ NQ\ in the \ New York session\ 🗽
2. Wait for a \ liquidity sweep\ of a \ prior session\ High/Low (Asia or London) ✂️
3. Confirm with \ SMT (NQ vs ES) divergence\ 🔀
4. Act on a \ proprietary entry signal\ 🔒
5. Risk at the swing 🛡️, target \ untapped internal/session liquidity\ 🎯
This indicator draws those session levels for you, tracks sweeps, detects SMT, applies higher-timeframe confluence, and fires alerts that respect your time window and filters.
---
\ What it draws & detects\
\ • Sessions & Liquidity Sweeps\ 🕒
* Plots \ Asia / London / New York\ session bands.
* On session close, it freezes the session’s \ High/Low\ as dotted “previous-session levels” and \ extends them forward\ until price \ crosses\ (choose \ Wicks\ or \ Close\ ).
* When price takes a previous-session \ High\ → \ Buyside sweep\ ; takes a \ Low\ → \ Sellside sweep\ .
* Optional \ Sweep Zones\ expand around the swept level using an \ ATR(21)\ margin; can auto-fade “fake” sweeps.
\ Tip: Keep “Extend previous session High/Low until cross” ON to maintain a clean roadmap into NY open.\
\ • SMT Divergence (NQ vs ES)\ 🔀
* Classic pivot-to-pivot SMT:
* \ Bearish SMT\ = NQ makes a \ higher high\ while ES does \ not\ .
* \ Bullish SMT\ = NQ makes a \ lower low\ while ES does \ not\ .
* Draws \ lines\ from pivot to pivot (no chart spam), with optional inline “SMT” label and optional confidence \ score\ (0–100) based on strength + recency.
* Context aware:
* Only shows \ Bearish SMT\ after a \ buy-side sweep\ (previous-session High taken).
* Only shows \ Bullish SMT\ after a \ sell-side sweep\ (previous-session Low taken).
* Respects your \ NY time window\ if enabled.
\ • Proprietary Entry Signals\ 🔒
* Prints entry lines + arrows only when your rules align (proprietary detection under the hood).
* Respects:
* \ Session-sweep bias\ (optional): Sells only after buy-side sweep; Buys only after sell-side sweep.
* \ Monotonic filter\ : new Sell must be \ higher\ than last Sell; new Buy must be \ lower\ than last Buy (resets each session).
* \ Minimum distance\ to nearest previous-session dotted level (in ticks).
* \ NY time filter\ window.
* \ HTF confluence\ (see below).
---
\ HTF Confluence (optional)\ 📈
* Choose \ MA slope\ (\ EMA/SMA/RMA/WMA\ ) or \ HH/HL structure\ on a higher timeframe (e.g., 60m/240m).
* Entry arrows and alerts can be gated so they only print when HTF bias agrees with the setup.
\ Tip: Start with EMA 50 on 60m for a smooth directional filter; add HH/HL only if you want stricter structure confirmation.\
---
\ Dashboard (bottom-right)\ 🧩
* \ VWAP state\ :
* \ Overbought\ (🔴) if close > VWAP + (mult × stdev)
* \ Oversold\ (🟢) if close < VWAP − (mult × stdev)
* Otherwise \ Neutral\ (⚪️)
* \ Premium / Discount\ vs previous-session 50% midline: Premium = above (red bias), Discount = below (green bias).
* \ SMT row\ : Bullish / Bearish / Neutral with optional score.
---
\ How to use the settings (quick tour)\
\ ENTRY\
* \ Entry Swing Length\ : lower = more signals.
* \ Confirmation\ : \ Candle Close\ or \ Wicks\ for breakout.
* \ Filter entry by session sweeps\ : enforces “sell after buy-side sweep, buy after sell-side sweep.”
* \ Minimum distance (ticks)\ : blocks entries too close to previous-session dotted levels.
* \ Replay mode\ : keeps entries visible in Bar Replay.
* \ NY Time filter\ : default \ 08:00–14:00 NY\ ; arrows/alerts respect the window.
* \ Arrow offset (ticks)\ : how far above/below the candle to plot the arrow.
\ SESSION SWEEPS\
* Toggle \ Buyside/Sellside zones\ , adjust \ ATR(21)\ margin & length.
* \ Hide Fake Sweep Zones\ (default ON).
* \ Extend H/L until cross\ (Wicks/Close).
* Optional \ daily reset\ for unswept dotted lines.
\ SESSIONS\
* Enable/disable \ Asia, London, NY AM, NY PM\ ; set start/end; choose color; extend midline if desired.
* DST toggles for NY/London.
\ HTF Confluence\
* Turn it ON/OFF; pick timeframe & method (MA slope or HH/HL); set MA type/length or swing length.
\ Dashboard\
* Show/hide table; set VWAP stdev length/multiplier.
* SMT settings: comparison symbol (\ default ES1!\ ), pivot length, show score/labels, recency window, etc.
\ Alerts\ (always last) 🔔
* \ Session line cross\ : choose Highs/Lows and crossing mode (\ Same as extension / Wicks / Close\ ).
* \ Entry alerts\ : \ Filtered / Unfiltered / Both\ .
* \ Filtered\ = respects sweep bias, HTF confluence, minimum distance, monotonic rule, and time window.
* \ Unfiltered\ = ignores sweep bias/HTF/monotonic (still respects minimum distance + time window).
* All entry alerts also respect the \ NY time window\ when enabled.
---
\ Suggested workflow\
* Open NQ on a 1–5m chart.
* Let the dotted \ previous-session H/L\ extend into NY; wait for a \ sweep\ .
* Check \ SMT\ : after buy-side sweep → look for \ bearish SMT\ ; after sell-side sweep → look for \ bullish SMT\ .
* Take the \ proprietary entry\ when filters agree.
* Stop at the swing; aim for \ untapped internal/session liquidity\ .
* Let \ alerts\ handle the monitoring.
---
\ Why traders like it\
* It mirrors the model popularized by \ TJR\ while removing the chart admin: sessions, sweeps, SMT, HTF gating, distances, monotonic sequencing, time windows, and ready-to-use alerts—so your execution stays consistent. ✨

SMT Divergences V2 [OutOfOptions]Smart Money Technique (SMT) Divergence is designed to identify discrepancies between correlated assets within the same timeframe. It occurs when two related assets exhibit opposing signals, such as one forming a higher low while the other forms a lower low. This technique is particularly useful for anticipating market shifts or reversals before they become evident through other Premium Discount (PD) Arrays.
This indicator works by identifying the highs and lows that have formed for an asset on the current chart and the correlated symbol defined in the settings. Once a pivot on either asset is formed, it checks if the pivot has taken liquidity as identified by the previous pivot in the same direction (i.e., a new high taking out a previous high). If this is the case and the corresponding asset has not taken a similar pivot, the condition is determined to be a potential valid divergence. The indicator will then filter out SMTs formed by adjacent candles, requiring at least one candle difference between the candles forming the SMT.
If the “Candle Direction Validation” setting is enabled, the indicator will further check both assets to ensure that for bullish SMTs, the last high on both assets was formed by down candle, and for bearish SMTs, the low was formed by an up candle. This check can often eliminate low-probability SMTs that are frequently broken.
The referenced chart shows divergence between Nasdaq (NQ) and S&P 500 (ES) futures, which are normally closely correlated assets that move in the same direction. The lines shown represent bullish and bearish divergences between the two when they are formed. As you can see from the chart, SMT Divergences may not always indicate a reversal, or a reversal might be just a short-term retrace. Therefore, SMT Divergences should not be used independently. However, in conjunction with other PD arrays, they can provide strong confirmation of a change in market direction.
Configurability:
Pivot strength - Indicates how many bars to the left/right of a high for pivot to be considered, recommended to keep at 1 for maximum detection speed
Candle Direction Validation - Additional SMT validation to filter out weak/low-probability SMTs be examining candle direction
Remove Broken SMTs - Keeps the chart clean by removing broken (invalidate) SMTs from the chart, once price moves beyond the outmost edge of the SMT
Work in Realtime - Enabled real-time mode for even faster detection of SMTs
Line Styling for Bullish/Bearish SMTs - Ability to customize line style, color & width for bullish/bearish SMTs
Label Control - Whether or not to show SMT label and if shown what font size & color should be used and if labels should include a tooltip containing information about the SMT
What makes this indicator different:
When used on NQ/ES it will automatically detect the matching the corresponding ticker, i.e. if you have chart on NQU2025 it'll automatically match to ESU2025 and vice-versa. Works for mini/micro/continuous contract
Unlike other SMT indicators, this indicator has an option to remove broken (no longer valid SMTs)
Allows real-time detection of SMTs prior to the pivot being fully formed
Allows validation of SMTs to only display high-probability SMTs, that are more likely to signal a possible reversal
Includes alerting capability for both SMT creation and when the SMT is broken (invalidated)
cd_sweep&cisd_CxOverview:
When the price is at a significant zone/level on a higher time frame (HTF), and it sweeps (breaks through and then closes back below/above) the high or low of the previous HTF candle, it is common to look for a Change in State of Delivery (CISD) on a lower time frame (LTF) to enter a trade.
This model can be summarized as:
HTF Sweep → LTF CISD (Optional: SMT / Divergences)
________________________________________
Working Principle & Details:
1. The indicator monitors price action on the selected HTF and tracks any sweep (violation) of the previous HTF candle's high or low. Simultaneously, it identifies CISD levels on the LTF. If SMT is enabled, it will appear as a label on the chart.
When both HTF sweep and LTF CISD conditions are met, the indicator marks the chart at the open of the next candle and triggers an alert if set.
CISD levels are tracked and updated whenever a new HTF high/low is formed.
2. The indicator monitors the formation of entry models on up to six selected pairs, displaying results in two separate tables:
o HTF Sweep Query Table: Monitors live HTF candles and reports pairs that meet the sweep condition.
o CISD Table: Displays the pairs where a valid entry model has formed. A "🔥" symbol indicates the condition has occurred.
3. Bias Visualization:
Based on the selected HTF, a visual band is shown at the bottom of the chart using the chosen bullish/bearish colors.
Bias is determined by:
o Candle closing above/below the previous one suggesting continuation.
o A failed close after a sweep implying potential reversal.
4. HTF Candles:
Displays HTF candles based on the user-defined time frame.
5. Optional SMT (Smart Money Technique):
Must be enabled in the menu and requires the correlated pair to be entered correctly for accurate results.
Displayed only as a visual confirmation, not a requirement for model formation.
If the currently open symbol sweeps the previous candle while the correlated symbol does not (or vice versa), an "SMT" label appears on the chart.
6. Color & Table Positioning:
Controlled via the settings menu.
________________________________________
Warnings:
• The indicator only marks CISDs that form at HTF high/low zones.
• Entering every time the model forms does not guarantee profitability.
• Waiting for the model to appear at significant HTF levels/zones increases the likelihood of success.
• HTF and LTF selections should follow commonly accepted combinations or user-tested time frames.
• If you want to trigger alerts only for symbols entered in the indicator, ensure the "Use indicator alerts" option is enabled.
• To set alerts for the TradingView watchlist instead, disable the "Use indicator alerts" option.

BOS mark-out (by Lumiere)Advanced BOS Detection with Strict Swing Confirmation
This indicator implements BOS detection with several unique features:
🔹 Dual-Candle Swing Validation - Unlike most BOS indicators that use single candle swings, this uses a two-candle confirmation for swing highs/lows, analyzing both the candle wicks and body transitions.
🔹 Directional Lock System - Implements a state machine that prevents duplicate signals until an opposite-direction BOS occurs, reducing noise.
🔹 Precision Wick Analysis - Compares wicks between the reversal candle and confirmation candle to identify the true swing point.
🔹 Real-Time Update & Live Market Adaptation – The indicator continuously monitors price action and instantly updates BOS signals as new candles form, ensuring you never miss a BOS.
How It Differs From Other BOS Indicators:
Most public BOS indicators use simple HH/HL or LH/LL detection.
Many don't implement the directional locking mechanism.
Few use the two-candle wick comparison approach.
Wick-Based Precision uses the extreme wicks of two candles (not just the body).
Strict Confirmation requires a close beyond the swing point (no "wick breaks" counted).
Usage Examples:
🟦 Bullish BOS:
A green candle closes, followed by a red candle. This will be the new high, and if the next candle closes above the highest wick of those two, it will be a BOS (only if we had a bearish BOS before)
🟥 Bearish BOS:
A red candle closes, followed by a green candle. This will be the new low, and if the next candle closes below the lowest wick of those two, it will be a BOS (only if we had a Bullish BOS before)
ICT HTF Candles [Pro] (fadi)The ICT HTF Candles shows you multi-timeframe price action by plotting up to six higher timeframe candles on your chart, scaled to real price levels. Set candle counts per timeframe or toggle them off for a clean view, saving you time switching between charts. This helps you spot trends and reversals quickly, align trades with the market’s direction, and time setups like sweeps or bounces better. From scalping on the 1m to swinging on the 4H, it simplifies ICT and Smart Money Concepts (SMC), revealing trend shifts and institutional moves clearly. Once you use it, trading without this clarity just won’t feel right.
Key Features:
In-Depth Price Action Levels
These levels track ICT PD arrays and confluences across timeframes, making it easy to see how price action flows from higher timeframes and what your setup faces. Is your 5m trade about to run into a 1H bearish order block? Did it bounce off a higher timeframe FVG and create an SMT with a correlated asset? They make your chart a clear roadmap to market structure, helping you find strong setups, save time, and align with institutional moves:
Change in State of Delivery (CISD): In ICT trading, CISD marks potential reversal levels on each timeframe by showing the open of the highest series of up (green) candles for a bullish shift or the open of the lowest series of down (red) candles for a bearish shift. These levels are set at the opening price of the first candle in those runs, highlighting where the market turns. The indicator makes these levels easy to spot across timeframes, so you can track reversal points clearly. You can set your own confirmation criteria—a close or wick above/below the CISD line (bearish/bullish) or a close or wick above/below the high/low—to verify the CISD level cross. When confirmed, there is a high probability that we have a change in trend, and a reversal order block forms. CISD helps you track these reversal levels and confirm market shifts, making multi-timeframe analysis straightforward.
Order Blocks: When a CISD level cross is confirmed, the price is now below a series of up (green) candles or above a series of down (red) candles, marking these candles as order blocks that usually support the new trend direction. The indicator shows these levels clearly across timeframes, making it easy to spot high-probability reversal or consolidation areas. Keep in mind that price may sometimes move to mitigate an imbalance, so use your best judgment based on your multi-timeframe analysis to confirm they meet your trading criteria.
Trend Bias: Traders often struggle figuring out market bias—guessing the trend wrong, losing on trades against the flow, or missing how lower and higher timeframes line up. The Trend Bias feature tracks order blocks and change in state of delivery, displaying bullish or bearish trends for each timeframe to help you choose trades that go with the market’s direction. The indicator shows these trends clearly across timeframes, so you can quickly see if the 5m matches the 1H or if you’re going against the bigger trend. This makes it easier to avoid bad trades and make decisions faster, keeping you on track with setups that follow the main trend.
Immediate Rebalance: When looking at price action, you’ll see the market doesn’t usually leave behind many Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). That’s because the market is efficient and always rebalancing any inefficiencies. When the market starts a strong move, the last candle will usually close above the previous candle high (for up moves) or below the low (for down moves). At this point, the market will do one of two things: immediately rebalance by retracing first, or have a small retracement but leave behind an FVG. The Immediate Rebalance feature tracks rebalance levels across multiple timeframes, clearly showing where price rebalances. This helps traders have a better expectation of how the market may need to retrace and anticipate Power of Three (PO3) setups by being ready for a Judas swing to rebalance the imbalance.
Fair Value Gaps and Volume Imbalances: If the market fails to immediately rebalance, it will usually attempt to come back and rebalance it at a later time. FVGs and VIs give you a clear area where the price might be heading if it starts breaking structure on lower timeframes. These inefficiencies—price gaps (FVGs) or aggressive moves (VIs)—show where the market’s working to fix imbalances. The Fair Value Gaps and Volume Imbalances feature tracks these levels across timeframes.
Previous Candle Levels: The Previous Candle Levels feature marks the high, low, and middle of the prior candle on each timeframe, helping you identify key price levels for sweeps, bounces, or breakouts. It tracks the candle’s high and low as its extremes and the middle as the 50% mark, which you can set to calculate using the high-to-low range or the open-to-close range. These levels can provide tradable setups on lower timeframes.
Smart Money Techniques (SMT): What’s an ICT indicator without an SMT feature to track cracks in correlated assets? The ICT HTF Candles monitors your chosen correlated assets, like EUR/USD and GBP/USD or SQ and NQ, for signs of strength or weakness to use as confluence with other features and build the case for A+ setups. The SMT feature spots divergences when one asset makes a higher high or lower low while the other doesn’t follow, hinting at potential reversals or market shifts. It tests SMT using two immediate candles, since higher timeframes (HTFs) create larger gaps on lower timeframes. Traders can easily see these divergence levels, like a 15m SMT lining up with a 1H order block or CISD, helping you confirm high-probability setups and strengthen trade entries with multi-timeframe confluence.

📌 What This Script Does
This script detects Smart Money Traps (SMT) Divergences between the instrument on your chart and a comparative symbol (default: ES). It automatically plots both confirmed and unconfirmed bullish and bearish SMT setups across multiple timeframes.
These SMT divergences can help traders:
Identify potential reversal points
Confirm high-probability entries in line with smart money behavior
Enhance bias when confluence aligns with other market structure or liquidity factors
⚙️ Important Settings
Please make sure you correctly configure the following inputs:
Symbol: The comparative asset to check divergence against. Common examples: ES, NQ, SPX.
Session Type: Ensure this matches your chart’s session setting: Extended or Regular.
Adjustment Type: Match this to your chart (None, Dividends, or Splits) under TradingView’s chart settings (bottom-right corner).
Pivot Lookback: Controls the sensitivity of divergence detection (default is 15). Higher values reduce signal frequency.
Timeframes: You can enable up to six timeframes independently for SMT scanning.
🟢 Bullish SMT Signals
Bullish SMTs are identified when price on your chart makes a lower low, but the comparative symbol (e.g., ES) does not, suggesting potential accumulation or trap liquidity.
🔴 Bearish SMT Signals
Bearish SMTs are flagged when your chart makes a higher high, while the comparative symbol fails to do so, hinting at distribution or a stop run setup.
📈 How to Use This Script
Add the indicator to your chart.
Set the correct comparative symbol (e.g., ES for NQ, SPX for SPY, etc.).
Choose your preferred timeframes.
Watch for unconfirmed SMTs (dotted lines) as potential early warnings.
Look for confirmed SMTs (solid lines) once price respects the divergence zone for several bars.
Combine with structure, liquidity sweeps, killzones, and high-impact news for higher confluence.
🧠 Best Practices
Use SMT signals as part of a broader trade plan—not standalone entries.
Focus on SMTs forming after liquidity sweeps or during session opens (London/NY).
Combine with your higher-timeframe bias, breaker blocks, or Pegasus/Unicorn entry models.
⚠️ Limitations
Historical backtest may show perfect SMTs—real-time confirmation requires patience.
SMTs may not play out without proper context—avoid blindly entering based on signal alone.
This script is not financial advice—use at your own discretion and always manage risk.
Quarterly Theory ICT 05 [TradingFinder] Doubling Theory Signals🔵 Introduction
Doubling Theory is an advanced approach to price action and market structure analysis that uniquely combines time-based analysis with key Smart Money concepts such as SMT (Smart Money Technique), SSMT (Sequential SMT), Liquidity Sweep, and the Quarterly Theory ICT.
By leveraging fractal time structures and precisely identifying liquidity zones, this method aims to reveal institutional activity specifically smart money entry and exit points hidden within price movements.
At its core, the market is divided into two structural phases: Doubling 1 and Doubling 2. Each phase contains four quarters (Q1 through Q4), which follow the logic of the Quarterly Theory: Accumulation, Manipulation (Judas Swing), Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal.
These segments are anchored by the True Open, allowing for precise alignment with cyclical market behavior and providing a deeper structural interpretation of price action.
During Doubling 1, a Sequential SMT (SSMT) Divergence typically forms between two correlated assets. This time-structured divergence occurs between two swing points positioned in separate quarters (e.g., Q1 and Q2), where one asset breaks a significant low or high, while the second asset fails to confirm it. This lack of confirmation—especially when aligned with the Manipulation and Accumulation phases—often signals early smart money involvement.
Following this, the highest and lowest price points from Doubling 1 are designated as liquidity zones. As the market transitions into Doubling 2, it commonly returns to these zones in a calculated move known as a Liquidity Sweep—a sharp, engineered spike intended to trigger stop orders and pending positions. This sweep, often orchestrated by institutional players, facilitates entry into large positions with minimal slippage.

🔵 How to Use
Applying Doubling Theory requires a simultaneous understanding of temporal structure and inter-asset behavioral divergence. The method unfolds over two main phases—Doubling 1 and Doubling 2—each divided into four quarters (Q1 to Q4).
The first phase focuses on identifying a Sequential SMT (SSMT) divergence, which forms when two correlated assets (e.g., EURUSD and GBPUSD, or NQ and ES) react differently to key price levels across distinct quarters. For example, one asset may break a previous low while the other maintains structure. This misalignment—especially in Q2, the Manipulation phase—often indicates early smart money accumulation or distribution.
Once this divergence is observed, the extreme highs and lows of Doubling 1 are marked as liquidity zones. In Doubling 2, the market gravitates back toward these zones, executing a Liquidity Sweep.
This move is deliberate—designed to activate clustered stop-loss and pending orders and to exploit pockets of resting liquidity. These sweeps are typically driven by institutional forces looking to absorb liquidity and position themselves ahead of the next major price move.
The key to execution lies in the fact that, during the sweep in Doubling 2, a classic SMT divergence should also appear between the two assets. This indicates a weakening of the previous trend and adds an extra layer of confirmation.
🟣 Bullish Doubling Theory
In the bullish scenario, Doubling 1 begins with a bullish SSMT divergence, where one asset forms a lower low while the other maintains its structure. This divergence signals weakening bearish momentum and possible smart money accumulation. In Doubling 2, the market returns to the previous low and sweeps the liquidity zone—breaking below it on one asset, while the second fails to confirm, forming a bullish SMT divergence.
f this move is followed by a bullish PSP and a clear market structure break (MSB), a long entry is triggered. The stop-loss is placed just below the swept liquidity zone, while the target is set in the premium zone, anticipating a move driven by institutional buyers.
🟣 Bearish Doubling Theory
The bearish scenario follows the same structure in reverse. In Doubling 1, a bearish SSMT divergence occurs when one asset prints a higher high while the other fails to do so. This suggests distribution and weakening buying pressure. Then, in Doubling 2, the market returns to the previous high and executes a liquidity sweep, targeting trapped buyers.
A bearish SMT divergence appears, confirming the move, followed by a bearish PSP on the lower timeframe. A short position is initiated after a confirmed MSB, with the stop-loss placed
