Multi-Oscillator Divergence Scanner [Quantum Algo]Multi-Oscillator Divergence Scanner
====================================================
🔶 OVERVIEW
Multi-Oscillator Divergence Scanner is a confluence-based divergence indicator that scans up to seven classic oscillators simultaneously — Relative Strength Index, Moving Average Convergence Divergence, Stochastic Oscillator, Commodity Channel Index, On Balance Volume, Money Flow Index, and Momentum — and displays the result on two synchronized canvases at once. Divergence lines, graded labels, and reaction zones are drawn directly on the price chart, while a dedicated pane below plots a Composite Oscillator built from every enabled engine, with the same divergence lines mirrored onto the composite itself. You see both slopes of every divergence — price disagreeing with momentum — in one glance.
The problem this script solves is selective divergence trading. Any single oscillator produces frequent divergences, and most of them fail. Requiring multiple mathematically independent engines — momentum-based, volume-based, and volatility-normalized — to diverge at the same confirmed swing filters the noise down to setups where disagreement between price and participation is broad, not incidental.
🔶 WHAT IS A DIVERGENCE?
A divergence occurs when price prints a new extreme but an oscillator refuses to confirm it. A regular bullish divergence forms when price makes a lower low while the oscillator makes a higher low — a classic reversal condition. A regular bearish divergence forms when price makes a higher high while the oscillator makes a lower high. Hidden divergences are the continuation counterparts: price makes a higher low while the oscillator makes a lower low (hidden bullish), or price makes a lower high while the oscillator makes a higher high (hidden bearish). This scanner detects all four types on confirmed swing pivots.
🔶 WHAT IS THE COMPOSITE OSCILLATOR?
The Composite Oscillator is the consensus reading of every engine you enable. Bounded oscillators (Relative Strength Index, Stochastic, Money Flow Index) contribute their native zero-to-one-hundred values; unbounded engines (Moving Average Convergence Divergence histogram, On Balance Volume, Momentum) are range-normalized over a configurable lookback; the Commodity Channel Index is rescaled onto the same axis. The average of all enabled engines plots as a single gradient line with overbought and oversold guides, a midline fill, and divergence lines drawn directly on it — so the pane shows aggregate momentum from the same engines that vote on every signal, not a separate calculation.
🔶 WHY THIS SCRIPT IS ORIGINAL
1. True multi-engine confluence. Divergences are not detected on one oscillator and decorated with others. All seven engines are evaluated independently at every confirmed pivot, and a signal only exists when the minimum confluence count you set is reached.
2. Dual-canvas mirroring. Every qualified divergence is drawn twice: on price, and on the Composite Oscillator in the pane, connected at the same two pivots. Both slopes of the disagreement are visible simultaneously — the visual proof that defines a divergence.
3. Consensus composite pane. The pane line is not one more oscillator; it is the averaged, normalized voice of the exact engines doing the scanning, colored by a gradient between the oversold and overbought guides.
4. Full transparency on every label. Each signal prints its strength as a diamond meter and lists the exact oscillators that diverged (for example: RSI · OBV · MFI). You always know why a signal exists — nothing is a black box.
5. Strength-scaled visuals. Divergence lines thicken with confluence on both canvases, and signals reaching the Strong threshold upgrade to the accent color, so chart hierarchy communicates quality instantly.
6. Reaction zones with a life cycle. Every regular divergence projects a volatility-sized zone around its pivot (measured in Average True Range). Zones gray out automatically the moment price invalidates them, so the chart always distinguishes live zones from dead ones.
7. Divergence pressure gauge. A decaying pressure model accumulates bullish and bearish divergence weight over time, giving a one-glance read on which side has been stacking disagreement with price.
🔶 HOW IT WORKS
Pivot scanning: Swing highs and swing lows are confirmed with a symmetric pivot lookback. All divergence checks are evaluated on closed bars at pivot confirmation, so historical signals do not repaint. Confirmation lag equals the right-side pivot length by design.
Confluence evaluation: At each confirmed pivot, every enabled oscillator's value at that pivot is compared against its value at the previous same-side pivot. The four divergence types are tested independently per oscillator, and contributions are counted.
Signal grading: Signals meeting the Minimum Oscillator Confluence print with strength diamonds (one per contributing oscillator). Signals reaching the Strong Signal Threshold upgrade to the accent color and thicker geometry on both the price chart and the composite pane.
Composite rendering: The pane plots the consensus line with a gradient fill to the midline, dashed overbought and oversold guides, tinted extreme bands, triangle marks at divergence bars, and the mirrored divergence lines.
Reaction zones: Each regular divergence projects a box around its pivot sized by Average True Range, extended a configurable number of bars. A bullish zone grays out when price closes below it; a bearish zone grays out when price closes above it.
Dashboard: A fully themeable panel on the price chart shows the last signal, a live divergence pressure meter, and one row per engine with its live value — color-coded for overbought, oversold, or directional state — plus each engine's most recent divergence side. Text size (four steps), position, and every color (title band, background, frame, grid, header, body, muted) are adjustable.
Chart hygiene: The number of divergences kept is capped by input, on both canvases. Older lines, labels, and zones are deleted automatically, keeping the chart readable and the auto-scale anchored to current price.
🔶 HOW TO USE IT
1. Works on any market — cryptocurrency, forex, gold, indices, stocks, futures — and any timeframe. Higher timeframes produce fewer, larger-structure signals.
2. Start with Minimum Oscillator Confluence at 2 and the Strong threshold at 4. Raise the minimum to 3 for a strict, low-frequency reversal tool; lower it to 1 to study single-oscillator behavior.
3. Read the pane and the chart together: a valid signal shows price sloping one way and the composite sloping the other, connected at the same pivots.
4. Regular divergences are reversal-oriented: treat them as exhaustion evidence at swing extremes, strongest when the composite is also inside an overbought or oversold band.
5. Hidden divergences are continuation-oriented: treat them as trend re-entry evidence during pullbacks, and do not read them like reversal signals.
6. Use the reaction zone as the decision area: a live zone holding on retest supports the signal; a grayed zone means the divergence failed.
7. The pressure meter is context, not a trigger — persistent one-sided pressure alongside fresh strong signals is the highest-quality condition.
🔶 SETTINGS
- Pivot Left / Right Length — swing size; larger values scan bigger structures.
- Independent toggles and lengths for all seven oscillator engines.
- Composite pane: normalization lookback, overbought and oversold levels, pane marks, and mirrored divergence lines toggle.
- Regular and hidden divergence toggles, minimum confluence, strong threshold.
- Reaction zone height (Average True Range ratio) and extension.
- Divergences To Keep — caps historical drawings on both canvases for chart cleanliness and stable auto-scale.
- Dashboard with adjustable text size, position, live oscillator values, and full color theming.
- Full color customization for all chart drawings and pivot markers.
🔶 ALERTS
- Bullish Divergence / Bearish Divergence — a regular divergence met the confluence minimum.
- Hidden Bullish Divergence / Hidden Bearish Divergence — a continuation divergence met the minimum.
- Strong Divergence — a regular divergence reached the strong threshold.
🔶 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does the indicator repaint? No. Divergences are evaluated only on confirmed pivots at bar close. The trade-off is intentional confirmation lag equal to the right-side pivot length.
Why does a pane divergence line sometimes start slightly off the composite's visual peak? Divergence is measured at price structure points. The line connects the composite's values at the two confirmed price pivots, which is the correct comparison even when the composite made its own extreme a bar or two away.
Why do some obvious divergences not print? Either the confluence minimum was not reached, the oscillator involved is disabled, or the swing did not confirm as a pivot under the current lengths.
Which oscillators should I enable? The default set mixes momentum and volume perspectives, which is the point of confluence: independent evidence, not seven copies of the same math.
Is a Strong signal a guaranteed reversal? No. Strength counts agreement between engines; it is a transparency measure, not a probability of profit.
🔶 CREDITS
This script builds its scanning and composite engine on classic, public-domain oscillators, and gratefully credits their creators: the Relative Strength Index by J. Welles Wilder Jr. (1978), Moving Average Convergence Divergence by Gerald Appel, the Stochastic Oscillator popularized by George C. Lane, the Commodity Channel Index by Donald Lambert (1980), On Balance Volume by Joseph Granville (1963), and the Money Flow Index by Gene Quong and Avrum Soudack. All oscillator calculations use standard built-in formulas. Drawing divergence lines on an oscillator is a long-established charting convention popularized by many community authors, acknowledged here as shared prior art. The multi-engine confluence scanner, the consensus Composite Oscillator, the dual-canvas mirroring, transparency labeling, strength grading, reaction zone life cycle, pressure model, and all code in this script are original work — no third-party or open-source script code was reused.
🔶 LIMITATIONS
Divergence can persist or fail entirely during strong trends; regular divergences against a powerful trend are the weakest application. Volume-based engines (On Balance Volume, Money Flow Index) are less meaningful on symbols with unreliable volume reporting. The composite's normalized components depend on the normalization lookback. Pivot confirmation introduces intentional delay. No indicator replaces independent analysis.

Indikator
Order Flow Volume Delta, CVD, Absorption & Divergence [LunqFX]Price shows you WHERE the market went. Order flow shows you WHO pushed it there — buyers or sellers — and whether they had real volume behind the move. This Order Flow indicator reads the volume delta on every candle (the balance of buying volume vs selling volume), builds it into a cumulative volume delta (CVD) trend, and automatically marks the two order-flow events that lead price: absorption and delta divergence. Everything is drawn on your chart as clean delta candles, order-flow support/resistance levels and a live buying-pressure dashboard.
❶ THE CONCEPTS (so it's clear)
▸ VOLUME DELTA — the difference between buying volume and selling volume inside a bar. Positive delta = buyers were more aggressive, negative = sellers. It is the core of all order-flow analysis.
▸ CVD (CUMULATIVE VOLUME DELTA) — delta added up over time. A rising CVD means buyers are steadily accumulating; a falling CVD means distribution by sellers. CVD is how you see the real trend of order flow, not just price.
▸ ABSORPTION — a bar with heavy volume but almost no price movement. It means a large player (smart money / institutional) is absorbing every market order at that level. Absorption very often appears right before a reversal.
▸ DELTA DIVERGENCE — price makes a new high but CVD does not (or a new low but CVD does not). The move has no real volume behind it — a trap / exhaustion signal that warns a reversal is likely.
❷ WHAT YOU SEE ON THE CHART
▸ Delta candles — sky-blue when buyers won the bar, coral when sellers won; the brighter the candle, the more one-sided the flow. You read buying and selling pressure at a glance.
▸ Order-flow levels — every absorption (gold) and divergence (blue / coral) is projected to the right as a support/resistance level with its exact price. These are the levels where big volume actually traded, so price reacts to them again.
▸ Live dashboard — who is in control (buyers vs sellers) from the CVD, the CVD value, the current bar's buy/sell pressure split, and the latest signal.
❸ HOW TO TRADE IT — STEP BY STEP
1 — Read the BIAS. The panel shows ▲ BUYERS or ▼ SELLERS IN CONTROL from the CVD. Trade with the side that controls order flow, not against it.
2 — Watch for DELTA DIVERGENCE against the move. Price higher high while CVD makes a lower high = buyers are exhausted → look for shorts. Price lower low while CVD makes a higher low = sellers are exhausted → look for longs. This is the highest-value order-flow reversal signal.
3 — Use ABSORPTION as a reversal cue. When heavy volume fails to move price, the move is being absorbed; watch for the turn and use that gold level as your invalidation line.
4 — Trade the reaction at order-flow levels. Old absorption and divergence levels act as support and resistance — enter when the delta flips back in your favour as price returns to a level.
5 — Confirm with Bar pressure. The panel's ▲/▼ % buy shows the live buy/sell split — take the trade when it agrees with your setup and the bias.
❹ HOW IT WORKS (fully transparent)
Each bar's volume is split by where price closed in its range: buy-volume = volume × (close − low) ÷ range, sell-volume = volume × (high − close) ÷ range, and delta = buy − sell. This is a transparent, range-based volume-delta estimate — it needs no tick or bid/ask feed, so it runs on any symbol. CVD is the running sum of that delta (session-anchored on intraday charts, fully cumulative on daily and higher, handled automatically). Absorption is flagged when volume rises above its average by your chosen multiple while the candle body stays smaller than a fraction of ATR. Divergence compares each confirmed swing pivot in price with the CVD value at that pivot. Every reading comes from closed bars and confirmed pivots — no repainting, no lookahead.
Order flow is strongest on markets with true exchange volume — crypto, stocks, futures and indices — and on intraday timeframes (1m–4h), where buying and selling pressure is most meaningful. On forex, volume is broker tick-volume, so treat the delta as an approximation of order flow rather than exact.
SETTINGS — CVD reset (Session / Week / None), absorption sensitivity, divergence swing length, number of order-flow levels + glow, delta candles on/off, dashboard position.
ALERTS — bullish delta divergence, bearish delta divergence, absorption, and CVD crossing zero (buyers / sellers taking control).
This indicator is an educational market-analysis tool, not financial advice. The volume delta shown here is a transparent estimate from price and volume, not exchange-audited bid/ask order flow, and past behaviour does not guarantee future results. Always confirm with your own analysis and manage your risk.

RSI Divergence Hunter [JOAT]RSI Divergence Hunter
Automatically detects the four classic RSI divergence types on confirmed pivots and frames each one as a trade.
What it is
Divergence between price and momentum is one of the oldest reversal and continuation reads, but marking it by hand is subjective and easy to force. This indicator detects all four divergence types algorithmically on confirmed pivots, so what you see is defined and repeatable, and then attaches a full trade structure to each. It is an original divergence engine, not a plain RSI plot.
How it works
• RSI core — the relative strength index measures the speed and size of recent moves. It is the momentum reference every divergence is measured against.
• Confirmed pivots — the engine waits for pivots on both price and RSI to confirm a set number of bars back before comparing them. Because pivots are only evaluated once confirmed, a plotted divergence does not repaint into or out of existence.
• The four types — regular bullish (price lower low, RSI higher low) and regular bearish (price higher high, RSI lower high) point to potential reversals; hidden bullish and hidden bearish point to trend continuation after a pullback. Each is drawn with a connecting line on both price and RSI and labelled by type.
• Zones and gating — overbought and oversold zones give context, and a minimum-gap control keeps divergence signals from stacking on lower timeframes.
Trade levels
Each qualifying divergence draws a red risk box to the stop and a green reward box to the third target, with inner dividers and right-edge labels for entry, stop and each take-profit at your R multiples. The stop is anchored beyond the pivot that formed the divergence.
The dashboard
An adjustable divergence-scope panel shows the current RSI value and zone, the most recent divergence type detected, the active signal, a conviction estimate, and a live first-target-before-stop tally from closed bars only.
How to use it
• Works on any asset and timeframe.
• Treat regular divergences as counter-trend reversal cues and hidden divergences as with-trend continuation cues — the distinction matters.
• Combine with structure or a trend filter; divergence works well as confluence, not in isolation.
Settings
RSI length and source, pivot strength, which divergence types to display, overbought/oversold levels, risk multiple and target R multiples, plus visual and dashboard controls.
Originality and usefulness
The contribution is a complete, confirmed-pivot detector for all four divergence classes with clear per-type labelling and integrated, non-repainting trade framing. By fixing the definition of a divergence and waiting for pivot confirmation, it removes much of the hindsight bias that makes manual divergence unreliable.
Notes and limitations
• Divergence signals can persist and reappear in strong trends; a divergence is a condition, not a timing guarantee.
• Confirmed pivots introduce a natural delay equal to the pivot strength — this is the cost of not repainting.
• The tally reflects only past bars on the current chart and is not a forecast.
• Educational and analytical tool, not financial advice.

RSI Levels & Regime Map Heatmap & Cardwell Reversal SignalsOVERVIEW
RSI is the most-used oscillator in the world, and almost nobody trades it — because "RSI is 62" is not something you can place an order against.
This tool moves RSI onto price.
RSI IS INVERTIBLE. Wilder's smoothing can be solved backwards, so for any RSI value there is an EXACT price that would produce it on the next bar. Instead of "RSI is 62", the chart tells you:
Close above 24,278 -> RSI 70 (resistance)
Close below 24,193 -> RSI 30 (support)
Those are real levels. You can put a stop there. You can put a target there.
The script draws the full ladder (30 / 40 / 50 / 60 / 70, all configurable), shades the bands between them into a regime heatmap, measures the Cardwell range regime, marks Cardwell positive and negative reversals with projected targets, shows a multi-timeframe strip — and then does the thing nobody else does: IT FORWARD-TESTS WHETHER ANY OF IT ACTUALLY HOLDS.
This is a research and framing tool. It is NOT a strategy, NOT a signal service, and NOT a validated edge.
THE MATHS (exact, not an approximation)
RSI = 100 - 100/(1 + AG/AL), where AG and AL are the Wilder-smoothed average gain and loss.
For a target T, let RSt = T/(100 - T). Solving the next bar's RSI for the move x required:
an UP move needs x = (n-1) * (RSt*AL - AG)
a DOWN move needs x = (n-1) * (AL - AG/RSt)
Level = close + x. The up form applies when it is non-negative; otherwise the down form does.
This is algebra, not curve fitting. Feed the derived price back through RSI and you get the target value back exactly. The levels are not estimates — they are the precise prices at which the RSI state changes, recomputed every bar. The ladder breathes with volatility on its own: it tightens in quiet markets and widens in violent ones, with no smoothing parameter to tune.
WHY THESE PARTS ARE ONE TOOL (mashup rationale)
1. THE INVERSE-RSI LADDER — the core. Every rung is the exact price at which RSI would print a chosen value.
2. THE HEATMAP — the bands between the rungs, shaded by regime. It shows at a glance how far price must travel to change the RSI story, which is the one question the oscillator pane can never answer.
3. THE CARDWELL REGIME — Andrew Cardwell's observation: in a BULL market RSI holds roughly 40-80, and 40 becomes SUPPORT. In a BEAR market it holds 20-60, and 60 becomes RESISTANCE. So "RSI 40" means the OPPOSITE thing in the two regimes. A tool that ignores this will cheerfully tell you to buy oversold all the way down a trend. The regime here is MEASURED over a lookback, not assumed — and the rung the script watches follows the regime rather than a fixed number.
4. CARDWELL REVERSALS — the signal almost nobody implements. A POSITIVE REVERSAL is RSI making a LOWER low while PRICE makes a HIGHER low. That is the mirror image of classic divergence, and it is a CONTINUATION signal, not a trend reversal. A NEGATIVE REVERSAL is the bearish mirror. A measured target is projected from each.
5. THE HONESTY LAYER — everyone says RSI 30 is support. Nobody checks. Every level test and every Cardwell reversal is logged and graded with a triple barrier against an unconditional control.
Remove any one and you are left with a prettier RSI that still cannot tell you whether RSI works.
THE CALIBRATION — AND THE TWO TRAPS IT TOOK A LIVE TEST TO FIND
Two subtle biases can make a level tool look brilliant while it is doing nothing at all. Both are handled explicitly here, and both are worth understanding whichever tool you use.
TRAP 1 — THE FILL ADVANTAGE.
A support test fires when price dips INTO the rung and closes back ABOVE it. If you enter the event AT THE RUNG (below the close) but compare it with a control entered at the CLOSE, the event gets a strictly better fill on EVERY trade. It then "beats" the control by construction — not because the level held, but because it bought lower. That is a rigged comparison, and it produces a large fake edge.
THE FIX: the level test is treated as a SIGNAL, NOT A FILL. The event and the control enter at the SAME reference price — the bar's close. The only thing that differs is which bars were selected.
TRAP 2 — DIRECTIONAL DRIFT.
Indices drift upward. If level tests are mostly LONG while the control is 50/50, the events win on drift alone and prove nothing.
THE FIX: longs are compared only with control longs, shorts only with control shorts, then blended back using the events' OWN direction mix. The panel also reports the baseline drift directly, so you can see whether the instrument is simply going up.
The control is UNCONDITIONAL: the same trade geometry taken on arbitrary bars, selected by no signal at all. If the levels cannot beat that, they carry no edge.
Results are reported as EXPECTANCY IN R, not hit rate. A Welch t-test decides whether the difference is real or luck — the panel does not say PROVEN unless t > 1.96.
Other conventions, all chosen so the tool cannot flatter itself:
· Both barriers touched on one bar -> the STOP is assumed first.
· Expired trades are marked to market, not booked as losses.
· The level tested is the one computed at the END OF THE PREVIOUS BAR — the price a trader could actually have rested an order at. Using the current bar's own level would be a look-ahead.
· Everything is logged and resolved on confirmed bars only.
HOW TO USE IT
1. READ THE REGIME FIRST. In a bull regime the 40 rung is support and you are hunting long tests of it. In a bear regime the 60 rung is resistance. In neutral, the ladder is simply a map.
2. The rungs are LEVELS. Price closing through one changes the RSI state, by definition.
3. A CARDWELL REVERSAL is a continuation signal with a projected target.
4. READ THE CALIBRATION BEFORE YOU WEIGHT ANY OF IT — and read the baseline-drift row next to it. If level tests show no proven edge on your instrument, the ladder is a MAP, not a probability.
5. Entry, stop and target are drawn at the same price the calibration measures. They are arithmetic, not advice.
DATA / SCOPE
Any symbol, any timeframe. No volume required. The source is an input, so the ladder can be built from close, hlc3, or even another indicator's plot.
NON-REPAINTING
The ladder is computed from confirmed values and projects FORWARD — it is a statement about what the NEXT bar would need to do, so it necessarily moves as new bars arrive. That is a projection, not a repaint, and it is stated plainly rather than hidden.
Level tests are evaluated against the PREVIOUS bar's level, so no future information is used. Reversal pivots use ta.pivot* and confirm a few bars after the fact; once printed, they do not move. The calibration harness logs AND resolves on confirmed bars only, so its statistics cannot inflate intrabar.
HONEST LIMITATIONS — PLEASE READ
The ALGEBRA is exact. THE CLAIMS ABOUT RSI ARE NOT.
"RSI 30 is support" is folklore until it is measured, which is exactly why this script measures it — and why it is built to be able to return "not proven".
Calibration figures are IN-SAMPLE, with no costs or slippage, and use overlapping windows. A proven in-sample edge is NOT a guarantee out-of-sample. Real fills, spreads and commissions will all reduce it.
Cardwell's rules are discretionary in origin and are mechanised here in one particular way. A different mechanisation would give different numbers.
Small samples are unreliable even when they look good. If the edge is near zero, negative, or unstable across timeframes, the honest conclusion is that it is not there.
Nothing here predicts price.

Supertrend - EMA Cloud - Divergence - ADX [StrixEDGE]Overview
Apex Trend Engine is a 5-layer confluence system that combines trend-following, momentum, and reversal detection into a single overlay indicator. Each layer operates independently and feeds into a unified scoring engine that generates high-conviction BUY and SELL signals only when multiple confirmations align.
Layer 1 — Supertrend (Trend Direction)
An ATR-based adaptive trend filter that hugs price during trends and flips cleanly on reversals. The Supertrend line is plotted directly on the chart with a subtle fill between price and the stop level, making the current trend direction visible at a glance.
Bull & Bear SuperTrend :
Layer 2 — EMA Cloud (Momentum & Entries)
A fast/slow EMA pair (default 9/21) with a filled cloud between them. The cloud color shows momentum direction: green when fast EMA is above slow, red when below. Crossovers serve as entry triggers when confirmed by other layers.
Bull & Bear EMA :
Layer 3 — RSI Divergence Scanner (Reversals)
Automatic detection of regular bullish and bearish divergences between price and RSI using pivot-confirmed swing points. When price makes a lower low but RSI makes a higher low, a bullish divergence line is drawn on the chart. The reverse for bearish.
Bull Div.
Bear Div.
Layer 4 — ADX Trend Strength (Filter)
The Average Directional Index measures whether the market is trending or ranging. ADX above the threshold (default 25) confirms a trending market. The directional indicators (DI+ vs DI-) determine if the trend is bullish or bearish.
Bull & Bear ADX :
Layer 5 — Combined Signal Engine
Each layer contributes one point to a bull score and one to a bear score (5 points maximum each):
Point 1 — Supertrend direction
Point 2 — EMA fast/slow alignment
Point 3 — Price position relative to 200 EMA
Point 4 — Recent RSI divergence (within 20 bars)
Point 5 — ADX trending with directional confirmation
Signal generation requires both a score threshold AND a trigger event:
STRONG BUY — 4 or more bullish points with an EMA crossover or Supertrend flip
BUY — 3 or more bullish points with a trigger
STRONG SELL — 4 or more bearish points with a trigger
SELL — 3 or more bearish points with a trigger
This dual requirement (score plus trigger) prevents signals from firing on every bar during a trend and limits them to actionable moments.
Chart visuals
Supertrend: colored line with transparent fill to price showing the trend zone
EMA Cloud: fast and slow EMA lines with filled cloud between them
EMA 200: gold line for macro trend reference

Adaptive Volume Confluence OscillatorWhat it is
One pane that fuses seven different reads of the bar into a single 0–100 confluence score, gates that score by a trend-vs-chop regime filter, confirms it against an auto-mapped higher timeframe, and — most importantly — forward-calibrates its own Buy/Sell signals against an unconditional base rate, so you can see whether the construction actually carries an edge on your instrument.
The seven votes: momentum sign · momentum vs its signal · money flow · trend structure (MA fan) · price location vs VWAP · trend slope · higher-timeframe bias.
The displayed wave is a volume-flow ribbon; the votes drive the score, the signals and the verdict. A plain-language verdict and a subtle pane tint make it readable at a glance (Simple view); a full analytic layer is available for advanced users (Pro view).
Why these are combined (mashup rationale)
A single oscillator whipsaws and a single signal over-fires. Combining helps only when the inputs key on different quantities and their agreement is checked. Each vote reads a different thing — momentum, momentum-vs-signal, volume flow, multi-MA structure, location vs a session mean, slope, and a higher-timeframe read — so the count that agrees carries more information than any one of them alone. A Kaufman Efficiency-Ratio regime gate suppresses conviction in chop, and a forward-calibration harness ties the whole construction back to realised forward outcomes.
An honest caveat, stated up front: the votes are not statistically independent. The oscillator itself embeds money flow, and vote 2 is derived from vote 1's series. Treat the score as a weight-of-evidence read, not as seven independent confirmations. The harness exists precisely so you can check whether the construction earns its keep on your instrument rather than taking the claim on faith.
How it works
Score — how many of the seven votes are bullish, scaled 0–100.
Regime — Kaufman Efficiency Ratio. Below the chop threshold, conviction dims, signals are withheld, and the verdict reads "WAIT – choppy".
HTF — the chart timeframe auto-maps to a confirming higher timeframe (~4–6×), requested with lookahead_off and offset by one bar while the live bar forms.
Signals — Buy/Sell fire only when the oscillator crosses its signal at a statistical OB/OS extreme and the score agrees and the regime isn't choppy and the visible wave isn't already at the opposite extreme.
Climax — a volume spike at an OB/OS extreme prints a Possible Bottom/Top exhaustion mark.
Divergence (Pro) — regular + hidden, from confirmed pivots on the momentum oscillator.
Calibration — each Buy/Sell is queued and resolved a fixed horizon later, then compared with the unconditional same-horizon base rate. The dashboard shows, per side: Hit %, Edge = Hit − Base, sample size, and a Wilson-gated star.
How to use it
Read the verdict and the score. Above the gate = bullish weight of evidence; below = bearish; in between, or in chop, the tool says WAIT — and it means it.
Treat Buy/Sell marks as context, not triggers. They already require the score, the regime and the wave to agree, but they remain a description of conditions — not a recommendation.
Read the Edge row before you weight any signal. If Buy/Sell Edge isn't clearly positive with an adequate sample and a star, this construction is not carrying an edge on this instrument — weight it down or ignore it. Do not tune the parameters until the Edge turns green: that is curve-fitting, and the harness is there to catch it, not to be defeated.
Combine with your own levels, structure and risk rules.
Universal across markets
Price / high / low are inputs, so the engine runs on any symbol or timeframe. The volume votes (money flow, climax, VWAP location) need real volume — prefer a futures contract or a stock. On a symbol with no volume the tool degrades gracefully: money flow is neutralised, the score falls back to the price-only votes, and the dashboard says "NO VOLUME", so you're never misled by a blank or a phantom reading.
Non-repainting
Votes read confirmed closes. The HTF series uses lookahead_off and is offset by one bar while the live bar forms. Divergences come from ta.pivot* and confirm a few bars after the pivot; once printed they don't move. The calibration harness logs and resolves only on confirmed bars, so its statistics never inflate intrabar. The live oscillator updates each bar, like any oscillator.

Keltner Position Divergence with Reliability ScoringOverview
Keltner-Position Divergence with Reliability Scoring turns where price sits inside its Keltner channel into a bounded oscillator, reads it for divergence against price, and then scores — in real time — whether those divergences have actually been worth acting on for the symbol on your chart, and which direction is carrying the edge. It is a context / research read, not a standalone buy or sell signal.
The idea
A Keltner channel frames price with an ATR envelope around a moving average. Where price sits inside that envelope — pinned to the upper band, mid, or pinned to the lower band — is a bounded read of stretch. When price makes a new high but its Keltner position does not confirm (a lower band-position high), that non-confirmation can precede a turn. This script measures the divergence between price and its Keltner position, then keeps a self-updating track record of whether such divergences pay.
Why these parts are combined (mashup rationale)
Three components form one pipeline, not three separate signals:
A Keltner-position oscillator — price's location within the ATR envelope (0 centre, +1 upper band, −1 lower band), z-scored so the bands and zones mean the same on every asset.
Confirmed-pivot divergence — regular and hidden, between that position line and price, with an optional triple-pivot mode for rarer, stronger disagreements.
A reliability harness — a binomial-proportion confidence test that asks whether each class of divergence has preceded a favourable move (a k×ATR travel over a fixed horizon) more often than a same-zone baseline, reported per direction with a Wilson confidence bound.
Part 1 builds the bounded stretch read, part 2 fires only where price and position disagree, part 3 decides whether that disagreement has actually paid on this instrument. Remove any one and the tool can no longer answer "is this Keltner divergence worth trading here?"
How to use it
Read the verdict panel first. GREEN = these divergences have beaten a same-spot baseline here; RED = they've lost to it (skip, or change the band width / timeframe); AMBER = not statistically established yet; GREY = still gathering data. "Best signal" names the direction with the strongest measured edge; "Reward : risk" is the average best-vs-worst move after a signal, in ATR. A divergence is price making a higher high / lower low while the Keltner-position line does the opposite — marked in the pane and, optionally, on the price chart. It is context, never a standalone trigger.
Settings worth knowing
The regime filter ("Only count signals in regime") restricts the track record to signals that fired in a chosen regime — reverting markets suit divergence, strong trends punish it — so you can measure the edge where it's supposed to work. Costs subtracted (×ATR) raises the bar a signal must clear so the score is net of costs. Band width, MA length and the z-score window adapt the read to any instrument.
Universality & non-repainting
It reads only the chart's own price (configurable source), so it runs on any symbol, any timeframe, with no external data. Pivots confirm a fixed number of bars after the fact, and the track-record harness logs, updates and resolves only on confirmed (closed) bars, so its statistics never inflate or shift intrabar. The live oscillator updates each bar like any oscillator. All figures are in-sample and past-only.
Outputs for other scripts
Generic EXP_* plots — oscillator, signal, probability, edge, edge lower-bound, sample count, regime, band position — are published to the Data Window for use from other scripts via input.source().
Originality
Standard Keltner tools just plot the channel. This one turns band-position into a divergence oscillator and keeps a self-updating, confidence-scored, per-class track record against a same-zone baseline — so you see not just that a divergence printed, but whether and how it has paid on the current market. Clean-room implementation; no third-party Pine code reused.

Liquidity Divergence OscillatorOverview
Liquidity Divergence Oscillator is a distribution / absorption detector. It estimates liquidity health from Kyle's lambda — the price impact per unit of signed volume — and reads it for divergence against price. When price grinds to a higher high while liquidity health makes a lower high, large participants are often unloading size into strength (a distribution footprint); the mirror — price lower low, health higher low — is absorption. A forward-calibration harness scores whether those price/liquidity divergences have actually followed through on your instrument. It is a flow-structure read, not a signal to trade alone.
Why it is different — not another CVD/volume oscillator
CVD, the A/D line and MFI all measure the direction and amount of flow — who is buying or selling. Kyle's lambda measures something orthogonal: how much price moves per unit of that flow — the depth and fragility of the book. Price pushing to new highs while lambda quietly rises (liquidity thinning) is the classic footprint of size being distributed into strength, and no direction-only flow tool sees it. That impact axis is what makes a liquidity divergence its own, independent read — and it's why this belongs alongside your CVD tools rather than duplicating them. It's also distinct from a liquidity map: this is a standalone divergence oscillator, built to surface the turn, not to chart the shelves.
How the parts work as one tool
Signed volume — sv = volume × sign(price change), a tick-rule aggressor proxy.
Kyle's lambda — Cov(ΔP, sv) / Var(sv) over a rolling window: the regression slope of price change on signed flow, the standard lambda estimator. High = thin/stressed book, low = deep/liquid.
Liquidity health — −z(lambda), smoothed and tanh-squashed to a soft ±100 pane so "liquid vs stressed" reads on a fixed, self-scaling axis (0 = balance, ±50 ≈ a 1.6σ stretch).
Divergence — regular and hidden, from confirmed price pivots against health at those pivots.
Calibration harness — each regular divergence is queued and resolved a fixed horizon later against the unconditional base rate, reporting Hit / Edge / sample and a Wilson-gated star. A divergence class that never beats the base rate here is adding no information — and the dashboard shows that instead of assuming it.
How to use it
Read the oscillator's side and slope — above 0 is liquidity firming, below 0 is liquidity stressed. Treat a divergence mark as context (a distribution or absorption warning), never a standalone entry. Before you weight it, check the dashboard: if the Bull/Bear Edge isn't clearly positive with an adequate sample and a star, that class isn't carrying an edge on this instrument. Signals are marked in the pane and, optionally, on the price chart. Combine with your own levels, trend and risk rules — it describes behaviour; it decides nothing.
Universal & non-repainting
High/Low/Price are inputs, so the divergence engine runs on any series; the lambda estimate needs real volume, so use the futures (a cash index reads "no volume"). Pivots confirm a fixed number of bars after the fact and don't move once printed, and the calibration harness logs and resolves only on confirmed bars, so its statistics never repaint intrabar. The live oscillator updates each bar like any oscillator. Edge figures are in-sample, forward-measured at a fixed horizon, with no costs — a study aid, not a backtest.
Originality
Kyle's lambda and price/oscillator divergence are public; the Wilson interval is Edwin B. Wilson's. What's original is the specific construction: the detrend → z-score → tanh-squash liquidity-health oscillator built off the lambda estimate, the combined regular+hidden divergence engine keyed to it, and the forward-calibration harness that scores each divergence class against its base rate. Clean-room implementation; no third-party Pine code reused.

Burst Size Flow Divergence Large vs Small CVDOverview
A single cumulative-delta line tells you net buying or selling, but hides who is doing the pushing. Burst-Size Flow Divergence splits the flow inside each bar by the size of each volume burst — small / medium / large sub-intervals — and runs a separate signed delta on each tier. The signal is the divergence between the large-burst delta and the small-burst delta: concentrated bursts leaning one way while trickle flow leans the other. It is a flow-structure read, not a signal to trade alone.
What this is — and is NOT (read this before using)
This measures activity-burst size, not per-trade size. Pine cannot see individual trades — it sees a bar's volume and, via lower-timeframe requests, the volume of each sub-interval within the bar. "Large" here means a sub-interval that printed a lot of volume relative to normal — not a large single trade, and not "institutional." Institutions deliberately slice big orders into many small child-orders, so burst size is a proxy, not proof of who is behind the flow. The classification is honest about this, and the built-in harness is there precisely to test whether the divergence carries any information rather than to assert that it does.
Why these components are ONE tool (mashup justification)
Each stage exists because the previous one is ambiguous on its own:
Intrabar bucketing. Each lower-timeframe sub-bar is classed small/medium/large by its volume against an adaptive average, so "large" means large for this symbol and session, not a fixed lot count. A fixed threshold would misclassify on every instrument and every volatility regime.
Per-tier directional imbalance. Each tier gets its own signed delta (up sub-bar → +volume, down → −volume), expressed as net ÷ gross in — what fraction of that tier was net buying versus selling. Normalising this way lets the tiers' directions be compared apples-to-apples even though the large tier moves far less total volume than the small one.
The divergence. The large-minus-small spread is the object. Three separate delta lines would just be clutter to eyeball; the disagreement between the concentrated and the trickle flow is the actual read, so the tool computes it directly.
The calibration harness. "Concentrated bursts are informed" is a hypothesis, not a law — so when the spread is strong, the harness checks forward whether price actually followed the large tier more than the unconditional base rate, and reports Hit / Base / Edge on confirmed bars. That's what turns the divergence from a story into something you can verify on your instrument.
How it works
For each chart bar the finest available sub-bars are requested. Each is signed by close-versus-open (a tick-rule aggressor proxy) and bucketed by volume against the adaptive average. Per-tier signed volume becomes a net÷gross imbalance in , the large-minus-small spread is smoothed into the oscillator, and a strong gated spread is the divergence signal.
How to use it
Read the histogram (the large-minus-small spread): green means large bursts are accumulating while small flow lags or sells; red means large bursts are distributing. The bold line is the large-tier imbalance, the faint line the small tier. A gated turn in the spread suggests concentrated flow is leading, and is marked in the pane and — optionally — on the price chart. Always check the Coverage row (how much real sub-bar resolution the current bar received) and the Edge row (whether the divergence has actually led on this instrument). It is never a standalone trigger.
Plan-adaptive & data note
Sub-bar precision auto-selects the finest your plan serves (seconds on Premium+, else 1-minute). Lower-timeframe data exists only for recent bars, so older bars fall back to whole-bar flow and the coverage read shows it. The tool needs an instrument with real volume — a cash index reports none, so use the futures. The adaptive average and the calibration harness advance only on confirmed bars, so they never drift or inflate intrabar. Edge is in-sample, no costs — a study aid, not a backtest.
Originality
The parts are public: cumulative volume delta, the close-vs-open (tick-rule) aggressor proxy, and the general idea of size-partitioned / flow-toxicity order flow. What's assembled here is the specific construction — the adaptive intrabar size-tiering, the net÷gross per-tier imbalance that makes tiers of very different volume directly comparable, the large-minus-small divergence as the headline object, and the forward-calibration harness that scores it against the base rate. This is a clean-room implementation; no third-party Pine code is reused.

Accumulation Distribution DivergenceOverview
Accumulation Distribution Divergence turns Chaikin's Accumulation/Distribution line into a bounded pane oscillator and runs a price/oscillator divergence engine on it, with a built-in forward-calibration harness that measures whether those divergences have actually preceded a move on your instrument. It is an analytical study of accumulation versus distribution — not a strategy, not a signal, not a recommendation.
What it measures — and why it is not another CVD/MFI tool
The A/D line measures a different physical quantity from the volume oscillators most traders already run. Cumulative Volume Delta signs an entire bar's volume by tick direction; the Money Flow Index weights volume by typical price. The A/D line instead weights each bar's volume by its Close-Location-Value — how close the bar finishes to its high versus its low — so a bar that opens weak but closes on its high still accumulates. Because the input quantity is different, an A/D-line divergence is an independent read of who is in control, not a restatement of a signed-tick or typical-price oscillator. That independence is the entire point of running it alongside your existing volume tools.
How the three components work together (why they are combined)
This is a deliberate three-part construction, not a random stack. Each part answers a question the previous one leaves open:
The oscillator answers "is volume accumulating or distributing right now?" — the raw A/D line drifts endlessly and can't be read on a fixed scale, so it is detrended (subtract its EMA), z-scored over a window to put it on a portable σ axis, and tanh-squashed to a soft ±100 pane where 0 is balance and the ±50 bands mark an accumulation/distribution edge.
The divergence engine answers "is that flow diverging from price?" — it compares confirmed price pivots to the oscillator at those pivots. Regular divergence (price makes a new extreme, flow does not) flags thinning conviction; hidden divergence flags trend continuation. Divergence alone, though, is famously prone to firing early and often.
The calibration harness answers the question every divergence tool leaves unanswered: "has this class of divergence actually paid on this symbol?" Every regular divergence is queued and resolved a fixed horizon later against the unconditional same-horizon base rate, and the dashboard reports Hit % / Edge / sample size with a Wilson-score-gated star. A divergence that never beats the base rate is adding no information — and now you can see that instead of assuming it.
Together: a distinct volume lens, a divergence read on it, and an honesty layer that tells you whether the read is worth anything on the instrument in front of you.
How to use it
Read the oscillator's side and slope — above 0 is net accumulation, below 0 is net distribution.
Treat a divergence mark as context (conviction thinning or trend confirming), never as a standalone entry. It marks a condition, not a trade.
Read the dashboard before you weight a divergence: if the Bull/Bear Edge is not clearly positive with an adequate sample and a star, that class is not carrying an edge on this instrument right now.
Combine with your own level/trend framework and risk rules. This tool describes behaviour; it does not decide anything for you.
Settings
Five grouped sections: Data source (High/Low series for the pivots — configurable so the engine runs on any market), A/D engine (detrend EMA and normalization window), Divergence (pivot strength, max bars between pivots, hidden on/off, connecting lines), Calibration (forward horizon, minimum sample for stars), and Dashboard & theme (position, auto/dark/light palette that reads the chart background so the table stays legible, and the bull/bear colours).
Universality & data note
High/Low are inputs, so the divergence engine works on any symbol or timeframe. The A/D line, however, needs real volume — on a no-volume symbol (like a cash index) the dashboard reads "no volume" and no signals fire. Use the futures contract. Defaults target liquid index-futures intraday; change the sources and lengths for any other asset.
Non-repainting
Pivots confirm a fixed number of bars after the fact and do not move once printed. The calibration harness logs and resolves only on confirmed bars, so its statistics never repaint. The live oscillator value updates each bar, like any oscillator.
Originality
The Accumulation/Distribution line and Close-Location-Value are Marc Chaikin's public concepts; the Wilson score interval is Edwin B. Wilson's; price/oscillator divergence is a standard public technique. What is original here is the specific construction: the detrend → z-score → tanh-squash oscillator that makes the A/D line readable on a fixed bounded scale, the combined regular+hidden divergence engine keyed to that oscillator, and — most importantly — the forward-calibration harness that scores each divergence class against its unconditional base rate with a Wilson-gated confidence read. This is a clean-room implementation; no third-party script code is reused.

Signature Pivots: Conviction & DivergenceSignature Pivots: Conviction & Divergence
Every chart prints dozens of swings and most of them are noise. This
tool has one job: help you pick the pivots worth anchoring analysis
on. It finds confirmed swing highs and lows, filters out the minor
wiggles, stamps each survivor with a time signature, grades it by
volume conviction, and warns when a new extreme was made on hollow
volume. It draws and grades structure - it never tells you to buy or
sell.
How pivots are found
A swing high is a bar whose high is the highest of N bars on either
side (N is the "Pivot strength" input; swing lows mirror it). A pivot
can therefore only confirm N bars after the fact - that is detection
lag, not repainting, and once a marker prints it stays. On top of that
sits a size filter: a new pivot must be at least "Min swing size" ATRs
away from the previous kept pivot, so a daily chart shows the swings
that matter instead of every five-bar fractal. Set it to 0 if you want
them all.
The signature
This is the unusual part. Each pivot's UTC timestamp is converted,
through sidereal time at the market center you choose, into the degree
of the zodiac rising on the eastern horizon at that exact moment - the
Ascendant. That gives a number from 0 to 360 which sweeps the full
circle once every 23 hours 56 minutes. It depends only on the clock
and the location, never on price, so the same moment always maps to
the same number on every chart and timeframe. In plain terms, it tags
each pivot with where in the daily rotation cycle it formed. The old
observation being tested here is that turns tend to recur at the same
phase of that cycle.
Matching
The last 24 pivots (a setting) are kept in memory. Each new pivot's
signature is compared against stored pivots of the same kind only -
highs against earlier highs, lows against earlier lows - measured
correctly around the 360 ring, so 359 and 1 are two degrees apart, not
358. If the nearest same-kind signature sits within the match
tolerance (1 degree by default), the pivot is flagged: its label
highlights with a star, a dotted line links it back to the pivot it
repeats, and an alert fires. A match is a candidate worth studying,
not proof of anything - the defaults are deliberately strict so that a
star stays rare.
Conviction and divergence
Volume flow is measured with on-balance volume: each bar's volume
added on an up close, subtracted on a down close. A pivot's conviction
is simply whether OBV stood above or below its own moving average at
the pivot bar - was volume flow supporting the move that made the
swing, or fighting it. Divergence looks at consecutive extremes: a new
swing high above the previous one, with OBV lower than it was at the
previous high, prints a bearish divergence mark (price stretched,
volume flow did not follow); new lows mirror that for bullish
divergence.
Why these three live in one tool: they are three questions about the
same object. Did this pivot form at a recurring phase of the rotation
cycle? Did volume back the swing? Was the extreme hollow? Read
together on one label, they turn a plain zigzag into a graded list of
anchor candidates.
Reading the chart
H and L mark confirmed swing highs and lows. The caret after the
letter is conviction at that pivot (^ above the OBV average, v below).
The number is the signature in degrees. A star and highlighted color
mean a signature match, with a dotted line back to the earlier pivot
it repeats. "Div" marks print at divergent extremes. The zigzag
connects consecutive pivots so the structure stays visible. The HUD
shows the live conviction state, the last signature, the last
high-value pivot, and running pivot and match counts - event counts,
not performance figures.
Settings worth knowing
Pivot strength and Min swing size control how selective the swing
detection is. Match tolerance and Match memory control how strict a
"repeat" must be - loosening either will flag more pivots, and past a
point most of those extra stars are coincidence, which is why the
defaults are tight. The Market Center sets the geographic reference
for the signature; keep one consistent choice across your charts so
signatures stay comparable (for 24/7 crypto any consistent center
works). "Only show high-value pivots" hides everything except matches
if you want the quietest possible chart.
Using it
It runs on any timeframe, with one honest caveat: the matching layer
is most alive on intraday charts. On daily bars every pivot stamps at
the same time of day, so signatures drift about a degree per day and
repeats are naturally rare and far apart - on a daily chart this tool
is mainly a swing, conviction and divergence grader. Use it as a
filter, not a trigger: when you need a swing to anchor other work on,
prefer the starred pivots, and among those prefer the ones whose
conviction agreed with the swing and that carry no divergence warning.
Alerts are provided for a high-value pivot, bullish and bearish
divergence, and each new confirmed swing.
What is original here
Swing detection, OBV and divergence are standard public techniques.
The original work is the signature layer - the rising-degree
computation runs entirely on the chart from the timestamp, with no
external data - together with the ring-correct same-kind matching and
its pivot-to-pivot links, and the fusion of the three readings into a
single graded label. Written from scratch in Pine v6; no open-source
code was reused.
Honest notes
Pivots confirm late by construction. Some matches will always be
coincidence; the tolerance and memory settings exist to keep that in
check, and a star is an invitation to look closer, nothing more.
Different market centers give different signature numbers, so keep
yours consistent. Educational study tool; the HUD counts events, not
wins; no performance claims; not financial advice. Indikator
MACD Dynamic Squeeze Pro [ZynAlgo]1. Technical Overview
ZynAlgo MACD Dynamic Squeeze Pro is a momentum-context indicator built from the traditional MACD concept. Instead of trying to pick tops and bottoms against the trend, it focuses on trend-following shakeouts, energy compression, and breakout confirmation after a squeeze phase.
2. Chart Reading & UI Guide
ZynAlgo Ribbon
The area between the MACD line and Signal line is filled with Green/Purple ribbon colors.
The ribbon helps traders quickly see which side currently has momentum control.
Use the ribbon as context for your own trading approach, not as a standalone entry trigger.
4-State Histogram
Neon Green highlights bullish acceleration.
Neon Purple highlights bearish acceleration.
Faded colors warn that momentum is losing strength or price may be stagnating.
Diamond Marker on Main Chart
The breakout context marker is plotted directly on the main price chart.
This reduces the need to constantly switch attention between the oscillator pane and price candles.
Treat the marker as a context alert that should be confirmed with your own entry method, risk plan, and market structure.
3. Zyn Explosion Logic
The Green/Purple diamond markers appear only when the indicator detects several conditions together:
Trend Filter: The MACD and Signal lines must both be above the Zero line for bullish trend context, or both below the Zero line for bearish trend context.
Squeeze Phase: The histogram compresses, showing that the market is consolidating or shaking out traders.
Explosion Phase: After the squeeze, MACD crosses the Signal line with enough timing alignment to suggest momentum expansion.
This is a context/analysis tool, not a signal generator. The marker identifies a possible momentum continuation area, but it does not execute trades or guarantee direction.
4. Settings Explanation
Momentum Average Length
Controls the period used to calculate the average volatility of the histogram.
This average becomes the baseline for detecting whether current momentum is compressed.
Squeeze Compression Ratio
Controls how tightly the histogram must compress before the market is considered to be in a squeeze phase.
For example, 0.5 means the current histogram column must compress to less than 50% of the average.
Lower values reduce marker frequency and make the squeeze requirement stricter.
Squeeze Valid Lookback
Defines how many bars after the squeeze phase the MACD cross can still qualify.
This helps reject late or off-beat crossover events.
5. Recommended Presets
Gold Breakout - XAUUSD 5m/15m
Squeeze Average Length: 20
Squeeze Compression Ratio: 0.4
Valid Lookback: 3
Useful when gold creates short-term shakeouts before starting a stronger trend move.
Crypto Trend Following - BTC/ETH 15m/1H
Squeeze Average Length: 30
Squeeze Compression Ratio: 0.5
Valid Lookback: 5
Useful when crypto spends longer periods in sideways consolidation before momentum expansion.
6. Best Practices & Limitations
Use this tool as momentum and squeeze context for your own framework.
Confirm any trade idea with price structure, session context, volatility, and risk planning.
A diamond marker is not an automatic buy or sell instruction.
This tool does not predict price movement.
You alone are responsible for your trading decisions.
No tool eliminates risk or guarantees results.
Indikator
Divergence Indicator RSI, MACD,, Hidden Reversal Signals LunqFXDivergence Indicator is a multi-engine divergence scanner for TradingView that reads RSI, MACD and OBV at every confirmed swing and only draws a divergence when the engines agree — so instead of the usual flood of weak one-oscillator signals, you get a few graded, high-conviction ones. Every divergence is rated by strength: ★★★ all three engines confirm (rare, strongest), ★★ two confirm, single-engine noise is filtered out by default. It detects regular divergences (price makes a new extreme, oscillators refuse — potential reversal) and hidden divergences (trend continuation), on any market — forex, crypto, stocks, indices, gold — and any timeframe. Built in Pine Script v6, fully non-repainting. Keywords: divergence indicator, RSI divergence, MACD divergence, OBV divergence, hidden divergence, regular divergence, reversal, momentum, exhaustion, multi oscillator scanner.
◆ WHY MULTI-ENGINE
Any single oscillator diverges constantly — that's why classic divergence tools feel random. Requiring independent confirmation from momentum (RSI), trend-momentum (MACD) and volume flow (OBV) removes most false positives: when all three refuse to follow price, the move is genuinely running out of fuel.
◆ WHAT IT DRAWS
Divergence lines on price — solid neon violet for bullish, neon amber for bearish; dashed for hidden divergences.
Star-graded labels — ★★ / ★★★ with tooltips explaining exactly what diverged.
Exhaustion candles — a unique display layer: candles glow at full neon while price and engines agree, and fade as engines stop confirming — you see a divergence brewing before it prints.
Status strip dashboard — a horizontal HUD along the bottom: last signal + strength, a live engine board (P / RSI / MACD / OBV direction arrows), a FUEL meter, and bull/bear counters.
◆ HOW IT WORKS
Swings are detected with confirmed pivots (N closed bars each side).
At each new confirmed pivot the scanner compares price and each engine against the previous pivot: price lower low + engine higher low = regular bull; price higher low + engine lower low = hidden bull (mirrored for highs).
The number of agreeing engines (1–3) becomes the star rating; signals below your minimum are skipped.
The live engine board and fuel meter track slope agreement in real time — display-only context that never alters signals.
◆ HOW TO USE IT
Treat ★★★ regular divergences as your primary reversal alerts — look for entries with your own structure/levels.
Use hidden divergences to join the trend on pullbacks.
Watch the FUEL meter: when it drains and candles fade, tighten stops on trend trades.
Raise Min strength to 3 for only the rarest, cleanest signals; lower pivot bars for faster (but noisier) detection.
◆ SETTINGS
Pivot left/right bars, max gap between swings, minimum strength, hidden divergences on/off, engine toggles (RSI/MACD/OBV), RSI length, exhaustion candles, label size, dashboard position/size.
◆ ALERTS
Bullish divergence · Bearish divergence (fire when a confirmed signal prints).
◆ LIMITATIONS
Signals confirm with a pivot delay (right bars) — that is the honest cost of zero repaint; lower it for speed, raise it for reliability.
On symbols without volume data the OBV engine adds no information — disable it there.
Divergence marks exhaustion, not timing — always combine with structure and risk management.
◆ ORIGINALITY & NON-REPAINTING
Original work: the three-engine agreement grading, the exhaustion-candle layer, the live engine board and the fuel meter are my own implementation — no third-party code. All divergences are built from confirmed pivots only; a drawn line or label never moves or disappears.

Description & user manual
Why this indicator is different
Most traders run VWAP and RSI as two separate tools. VWAP tells you where price is relative to the volume-weighted average. RSI tells you about momentum. The problem is that these two readings constantly disagree, and when they do, the trader is left guessing which one to trust. Price sits above VWAP while RSI turns down. RSI pushes above its midline while price is still below VWAP. Every one of those moments is a decision made under conflicting information, and that is exactly where most intraday accounts bleed.
The VWAP Confluence Engine removes the guessing. Instead of showing you two panels that argue with each other, it forces agreement before it shows a directional state. Three independent measurements have to point the same way: price relative to VWAP, a volume-weighted RSI, and the Money Flow Index. When all three align bullish, the candle is painted in the bull color. When all three align bearish, it is painted in the bear color. When they disagree, the candle is neutral, and that neutral state is the most important output in the whole system. It is the market telling you it has not decided, and that you should not decide either.
This turns a chart full of conflicting signals into a single color-coded read. One glance tells you direction, momentum, and participation at the same time.
But direction alone is only half of a trade. A signal in the wrong location is a trap, no matter how clean the momentum looks. So the engine also maps support and resistance zones from swing pivots, flips those zones as price reclaims or loses them, and tells you in a dashboard where the nearest level sits above and below. A bull agreement firing directly into a heavy resistance zone is a very different proposition from the same agreement firing off a reclaimed support. The indicator gives you both pieces in one view.
And because a single timeframe is never the whole story, a compact multi-timeframe bar shows the same agreement logic across six timeframes at once. When every timeframe is the same color, the decision is easy. When they are mixed, that is information too.
Important notice
The VWAP Confluence Engine generates visual states based on VWAP position, volume-weighted momentum, money flow, and price structure. These states are not financial advice. They do not predict future price movement. They do not guarantee profitability. All trading decisions are made entirely by the user. Always manage your own risk. Always apply your own judgment.
1. Overview
The VWAP Confluence Engine is an overlay indicator that combines VWAP, a volume-weighted RSI, and the Money Flow Index into a single three-way agreement system, then places that agreement in the context of support and resistance structure and higher timeframe trend.
What it includes:
- Anchored VWAP with selectable reset period (hour, 4 hours, day, week, month)
- Volume-weighted RSI that scales price change by relative volume
- Money Flow Index as an independent confirmation layer
- Three-way agreement candle coloring: bull, bear, and neutral
- Gradient fill between VWAP and price that intensifies with distance
- Support and resistance zones from four independent pivot lengths, with zone flip logic
- Divergence detection with a box drawn on the price chart
- Higher timeframe filter that can gate signals to trade only with the larger trend
- Sentiment transition markers on the exact bar agreement changes
- Two configurable EMAs for optional extra confirmation, independent of the signal engine
- Main dashboard with agreement state, VWAP position, VW RSI, MFI, divergence, nearest levels, and a dedicated higher timeframe section
- Compact multi-timeframe bar across six configurable timeframes
- Optional background coloring
- Alerts for agreement changes and divergence
2. Core logic
2.1 The three-way agreement
Everything in this indicator is built around one question: do all three measurements agree?
The three measurements are:
- VWAP position. Is price above or below the anchored VWAP.
- Volume-weighted RSI. Is momentum above or below its midline.
- Money Flow Index. Is money flow above or below its midline.
A bull state requires price above VWAP, VW RSI above the midline, and MFI above the midline at the same time. A bear state requires all three below. Anything else is neutral.
This is deliberately strict. The indicator does not paint a color unless all three independent readings confirm each other. That is why the neutral state matters so much. It is not a weakness in the signal, it is the signal. It marks the stretches where price is chopping, where momentum and money flow disagree, and where forcing a trade usually ends badly.
2.2 Volume-weighted RSI
Standard RSI treats every bar equally. A move on thin volume and a move on heavy volume produce the same RSI value if the price change is the same. The volume-weighted RSI multiplies each bar's price change by its relative volume, the ratio of that bar's volume to a smoothed average, before the smoothing step. Moves on strong participation push the oscillator harder. Moves on weak participation barely register. The result reflects who was behind the move, not just that a move occurred.
2.3 Money Flow Index
The MFI is calculated from typical price multiplied by volume, producing positive and negative money flow that is converted to a 0 to 100 index. It responds differently from the VW RSI because it weights price level rather than price change. Requiring both to agree means two independent volume-based calculations have to arrive at the same conclusion, which is a stronger condition than either one alone.
3. VWAP and the fill
The VWAP is anchored to a selectable period. Day is the default and the most useful for intraday scalping, resetting at each session open. Week and month give longer-term institutional reference levels. Hour and 4 hours give shorter references for very fast trading.
The fill between VWAP and price is drawn with a gradient. Near VWAP it is almost invisible. The further price travels from VWAP, the more the fill intensifies, up to a configurable maximum. This gives an immediate visual sense of how stretched price is from its volume-weighted average without adding any clutter when price is hugging the line. The fill color follows the agreement state.
4. Support and resistance zones
The engine detects swing highs and lows using four independent pivot lengths, each of which can be toggled and adjusted. Instead of drawing thin lines, it draws zones with a thickness based on the average true range, so each level is a band rather than a single price.
The zones flip color based on where price is relative to them:
- When price is above a zone, it is drawn in the bull color, acting as support.
- When price is below a zone, it is drawn in the bear color, acting as resistance.
- When price is inside a zone, it is drawn in the neutral color, marking active interaction.
This flip logic reflects a basic principle of price structure: old resistance becomes new support once it is reclaimed, and old support becomes new resistance once it is lost. The zone color always tells you which role the level is currently playing.
The maximum number of zones shown per pivot length is configurable, so the chart stays as clean or as detailed as you want.
5. Divergence
Divergence is detected by comparing pivots in the VW RSI against pivots in price.
Bearish divergence: price makes a higher high while VW RSI makes a lower high. Momentum is weakening as price extends.
Bullish divergence: price makes a lower low while VW RSI makes a higher low. Selling pressure is fading even as price continues down.
Sensitivity controls the pivot lookback window. High uses a 3-bar window for more signals and more noise. Medium uses 5 bars. Low uses a 10-bar window for fewer, higher quality signals.
When a divergence confirms, a box is drawn on the price chart spanning the full high-to-low range of the swing involved, with a small label naming the divergence type. This shows not just that a divergence happened, but exactly where on the chart it occurred. The dashboard also reports the current divergence state.
6. Higher timeframe filter
The higher timeframe filter, when enabled, requires the higher timeframe to agree with the current direction before a candle can be painted bull or bear. On a lower timeframe this prevents counter-trend coloring during a pullback inside a larger trend.
The filter can be turned off entirely. With it off, candle coloring is based only on the current timeframe's three-way agreement. This is a deliberate choice left to the trader: strict alignment with the higher timeframe, or faster response on the current one. The dashboard always shows the higher timeframe bias regardless of whether the filter is gating signals, so the context is available either way.
7. Multi-timeframe bar
The multi-timeframe bar is a compact panel showing the agreement direction across six timeframes at once. Each slot is fully configurable, defaulting to 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, D, and W. Each shows a colored triangle, up for bull, down for bear, a dot for neutral, with the timeframe label colored to match.
This is the fastest read in the indicator. When every timeframe is the same color, alignment is strong and the decision is simple. When the shorter timeframes are one color and the higher ones another, price is at a transition or in conflict, and the bar shows that at a glance.
8. Sentiment transitions
When the agreement state changes, a small marker is plotted on the exact bar where it happened. A triangle up when the state flips to bull, a triangle down when it flips to bear, a dot when it drops into neutral. These mark the moments the read changed, which is often more actionable than the state simply being green or red for many bars in a row.
9. Dashboard reference
The main dashboard updates on every bar and shows:
Agreement - the current three-way state: bull, bear, or hold.
VWAP - whether price is above or below the anchored VWAP.
VW RSI - current volume-weighted RSI value, colored by position.
MFI - current Money Flow Index value.
Divergence - active divergence state, if any.
Near Support - nearest zone level below current price.
Near Resist - nearest zone level above current price.
VWAP Anchor - the current VWAP reset period.
The higher timeframe section, which can be toggled, adds for the selected higher timeframe: its agreement state, VWAP position, VW RSI, MFI, whether the higher timeframe filter is active, and a warning if the current chart timeframe is below the recommended minimum for the system.
10. How to use
10.1 The core read
Wait for agreement. A bull or bear colored candle means all three measurements confirm each other. A neutral candle means they do not. The single most valuable habit this indicator encourages is to simply stand aside when candles are neutral. Those stretches are where the market has not chosen a direction, and where forcing a trade tends to produce the worst outcomes.
10.2 Location matters as much as direction
A colored candle tells you the direction is confirmed. The support and resistance zones tell you whether the location is any good. A bull agreement firing straight into a heavy resistance zone above is a low quality entry, even though the momentum looks clean. The same bull agreement firing off a zone that has just flipped from resistance to support is a far better proposition. Read the two together, never direction alone.
10.3 Using the higher timeframe
If you want to trade only in the direction of the larger trend, enable the higher timeframe filter. Colored candles will then only appear when the current and higher timeframe agree. If you prefer to react faster and judge context yourself, leave it off and use the higher timeframe section of the dashboard and the multi-timeframe bar as reference rather than as a hard gate.
10.4 Divergence as context
A divergence box is a warning that momentum and price have started to disagree, not an instruction to enter. The most reliable approach is to wait for a divergence box near a support or resistance zone and then look for the agreement state to actually flip before acting. Divergence can persist for many bars before price responds.
10.5 Illustrative bull scenario
Educational example only. Not a trading recommendation.
Price pulls back to a support zone that flipped from resistance a few sessions earlier. The multi-timeframe bar shows the higher timeframes already bullish. A bullish divergence box appears at the zone. On the next bar the agreement state flips to bull, painting the candle and plotting a transition triangle. Direction, location, momentum, and higher timeframe are all pointing the same way at the same place.
10.6 Illustrative bear scenario
Educational example only. Not a trading recommendation.
Price rallies into a resistance zone overhead. VW RSI and MFI are both rolling over. A bearish divergence box is drawn across the swing. The agreement state flips to bear and a transition triangle down prints. The higher timeframe section confirms a bearish bias. The setup has direction, structure, and higher timeframe agreement in one location.
11. Recommended use
This system is built for intraday trading and works best on the higher intraday timeframes rather than the very fastest ones, where noise overwhelms the agreement logic. The dashboard includes a timeframe check that flags when you are below the recommended minimum. Pivot settings for the support and resistance zones can be tuned per instrument and timeframe; smaller pivot lengths surface shorter-term levels, larger ones surface major structure.

Trend Bias Guide MATrend Bias Guide MA
OVERVIEW
Trend Bias Guide MA is a smoothed reference line that shows which side (bullish or bearish) has been dominating recent price action, and helps spot early signs of trend exhaustion through divergence between price and candle-body pressure.
Unlike a standard moving average, this line is not derived from price itself. It is derived from the net directional pressure of individual candles over a lookback window, then projected onto the chart at a visual offset from price using ATR, so it never overlaps the candles.
WHAT IT IS BUILT FROM
For every candle in the lookback window (default: 50 candles), the script measures (close − open). This value is positive for a bullish candle and negative for a bearish candle, and its magnitude reflects the size of that candle's body.
These values are summed across the whole lookback window into a single number, referred to here as the net bias:
net bias = Σ (close − open) over the last N candles
This sum captures two distinct effects at once:
1. Count imbalance: whether there were more bullish or more bearish candles in the window.
2. Size imbalance: whether the bullish or bearish candles had larger bodies on average.
Both effects move price in the same underlying way, and summing (close − open) candle by candle combines them automatically, without needing to calculate them separately. If the net bias is positive, bullish pressure has dominated the window; if negative, bearish pressure has dominated.
HOW THE LINE IS DRAWN
- If the net bias is negative (bearish), the line is plotted above price, at a distance of (ATR × multiplier) above the current high.
- If the net bias is positive (bullish), the line is plotted below price, at a distance of (ATR × multiplier) below the current low.
- ATR length and multiplier are both adjustable inputs (defaults: ATR length 14, multiplier 1.0), and control how far the line sits from price.
- The raw level is then smoothed with a simple moving average (default length: 10) to reduce short-term noise and produce a cleaner, more continuous line instead of a jagged one.
- The line changes color to match its current bias: green when below price (bullish), red when above price (bearish).
INPUTS
- Lookback Length (default 50): number of candles used to calculate the net bias.
- ATR Length (default 14): period used for the ATR calculation that sets the offset distance.
- ATR Multiplier (default 1.0): scales the offset distance from price.
- Smoothing Length (default 10): period of the moving average applied to the final line.
HOW TO INTERPRET IT
- Green line below price: bullish pressure has dominated over the lookback window.
- Red line above price: bearish pressure has dominated over the lookback window.
- This is a trailing, lookback-based measure. Like any indicator built on a moving window, it reacts with a delay relative to the current candle — it will not flip instantly at the exact start of a new trend, and generally needs enough new candles in the new direction to outweigh the older ones still inside the window.
HOW TO USE IT
This indicator is designed as a contextual reference, not as a standalone entry or exit signal. Two practical uses:
1. Trend context: at a glance, see whether recent price action has been dominated by bullish or bearish candles, without needing to eyeball candle sizes manually.
2. Divergence / exhaustion warning: watch for cases where price is trading above a rising average (e.g., an EMA, not included in this script) while this line is still red (or below a falling average while the line is still green). This mismatch between price direction and underlying candle pressure can flag weakening trend conviction. In backtesting on XAUUSD (17 years of hourly data), this type of divergence was associated with a meaningfully higher chance of the trend reversing within the following 24–72 hours compared to the general baseline, with the effect strongest in the 24-hour window and gradually fading over longer horizons.
LIMITATIONS
- This is a descriptive/contextual tool, not a predictive trading signal on its own. It shows what has already happened over the lookback window, and any forward-looking use (such as the divergence behavior described above) carries no guarantee of repeating in the same way in the future or on other symbols/timeframes.
- Being lookback-based, the line inherently lags price, in the same way any moving average or rolling calculation does.
- It does not include stop-loss, take-profit, or position-sizing logic of any kind. It is a visual reference only.
- Backtested divergence statistics referenced above were derived from historical XAUUSD data and should not be assumed to hold with the same magnitude across all instruments, timeframes, or market regimes. Users should validate behavior on their own instrument and timeframe before relying on it. Indikator
SMT Sniper Entry Engine [trade_w_samet]🎯 SMT Sniper Entry Engine
SMT Sniper Entry Engine is a structured correlated-market divergence and confirmation indicator designed to help traders study liquidity sweeps, SMT divergence, reclaim quality, pair correlation, external-range location, displacement, Fair Value Gap evidence, micro-structure confirmation, and permanent bar-close UP or DOWN signals through one coordinated workflow.
The script is built around one central idea:
An SMT divergence should not automatically become an entry signal.
Instead of treating every difference between two correlated markets as equally meaningful, the engine first identifies a one-market liquidity sweep, then evaluates reclaim behavior, ATR-normalized sweep depth, candle direction, rejection quality, range expansion, pair correlation, external-range location, and divergence separation before the SMT event is accepted.
A qualified SMT event still does not create an immediate final signal.
The accepted SMT event arms a temporary confirmation sequence.
The engine then waits for directional displacement, a confirmed break of the SMT candle, and the additional evidence required by the active Engine Preset before a permanent UP or DOWN label is printed.
The indicator includes:
• Automatic comparison-symbol selection for supported metals, indices, cryptocurrencies, forex majors, and common forex crosses
• Manual comparison-symbol mode
• Same-timeframe comparison-market data
• Closed-bar rolling liquidity references
• Current-bar-close SMT divergence detection
• Either-market sweep acceptance
• Same-bar liquidity reclaim validation
• ATR-normalized sweep-depth measurement
• Chart-candle direction filtering
• Rejection-close filtering
• Minimum range-expansion filtering
• Separate bullish and bearish 0–100 Base Quality Scores
• Log-return pair-correlation analysis
• External-range location filtering
• ATR-normalized divergence-separation analysis
• Separate bullish and bearish 0–100 Sniper Scores
• Standard, Sniper, and Elite Engine Presets
• A temporary eight-bar confirmation window
• Sequential evidence accumulation across separate closed candles
• Directional displacement confirmation
• SMT-candle break confirmation
• Fair Value Gap confirmation
• Micro-structure break confirmation
• ATR-buffered setup invalidation
• Setup expiration
• Directional SMT cooldown
• Final signal cooldown
• One final UP or DOWN signal per completed SMT sequence
• Minimal historical SMT markers
• Dotted historical SMT reference lines
• Blue UP and orange DOWN labels
• Adjustable UP / DOWN label size
• Signal-confirming FVG boxes
• Recent-only chart-object
• A premium bottom-right dashboard
• Static TradingView alert conditions
• Combined dynamic alert() support
• “Any alert() function call” compatibility
• Data Window diagnostics
• Confirmed-close permanent signals
• No pivot functions
• No future-bar confirmation
• No historical signal backplotting
The purpose of this script is to provide a structured way to study when a correlated-market divergence is supported by sufficient liquidity, correlation, location, reaction, and confirmation evidence.

📌 OVERVIEW
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
At a high level, SMT Sniper Entry Engine does the following:
• Selects a comparison market automatically or manually.
• Requests the comparison market’s open, high, low, close, and ATR data on the chart timeframe.
• Builds rolling liquidity references from already completed candles.
• Checks whether only one market swept its corresponding liquidity reference.
• Requires the sweeping market to reclaim the reference on the same completed candle.
• Measures sweep depth relative to ATR.
• Evaluates chart-candle direction.
• Evaluates the candle’s closing position.
• Evaluates minimum range expansion relative to ATR.
• Produces separate bullish and bearish 0–100 Base Quality Scores.
• Measures the relationship between chart and comparison-market returns.
• Evaluates whether bullish SMT appears near the lower portion of the external range.
• Evaluates whether bearish SMT appears near the upper portion of the external range.
• Measures how clearly the non-sweeping market held its own liquidity reference.
• Produces separate bullish and bearish 0–100 Sniper Scores.
• Applies Standard, Sniper, or Elite acceptance thresholds.
• Confirms a qualified SMT event only after the current candle closes.
• Arms a temporary sequential confirmation window.
• Accumulates displacement, SMT-candle break, FVG, and structure evidence.
• Invalidates the setup if price closes beyond the SMT extreme by the stored ATR buffer.
• Expires the setup when confirmation does not arrive inside the available window.
• Applies final signal cooldown protection.
• Prints a permanent blue UP or orange DOWN label only after every required condition is confirmed.
• Optionally draws the FVG associated with the final signal.
• Displays current engine state, comparison symbol, correlation, active score, and signal counts in the dashboard.
• Provides separate static alert conditions.
• Provides one combined dynamic final-signal alert workflow.
• Exposes internal diagnostic values through TradingView’s Data Window.
The indicator does not use machine-learning prediction.
Its scores are not probabilities.
Its signal counts are not wins and losses.
Its labels do not promise future direction.
The script is a rule-based educational framework that explains how a raw correlated-market divergence becomes an accepted, rejected, invalidated, expired, or finally confirmed setup.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧠 CORE IDEA
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The core idea behind SMT Sniper Entry Engine is that two markets with a meaningful positive relationship do not always take corresponding liquidity at the same time.
When one market trades beyond a prior liquidity reference while the other market holds its own reference, the difference can create an SMT divergence.
However, the divergence alone contains limited information.
A basic SMT event does not automatically explain:
• whether the sweep was meaningful relative to volatility
• whether the sweeping market reclaimed the reference
• whether the chart candle closed with directional rejection
• whether the candle range expanded enough to matter
• whether the selected markets remain sufficiently correlated
• whether the event occurred near a useful external-range location
• whether the non-sweeping market clearly held its own level
• whether price produced directional displacement afterward
• whether the SMT candle was actually broken
• whether an FVG or micro-structure break confirmed the reaction
• whether the setup remained valid during the confirmation window
• whether another recent final signal is still inside the cooldown period
The engine therefore uses a staged sequence:
comparison-market selection
→ closed-bar liquidity references
→ one-market sweep
→ same-bar reclaim
→ Base Quality Score
→ pair-correlation validation
→ external-range location
→ divergence-separation validation
→ Sniper Score
→ confirmed SMT event
→ temporary setup arming
→ sequential reaction evidence
→ invalidation or expiration control
→ permanent UP or DOWN signal
For bullish conditions, the engine studies prior-low liquidity, bullish rejection, lower external-range location, directional displacement, a close above the SMT candle high, and bullish confirmation evidence.
For bearish conditions, the same process is mirrored around prior highs.
The purpose is not to produce the largest possible number of signals.
The purpose is to make the acceptance process selective, visible, and understandable.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧩 WHY THIS SCRIPT IS NOT A SIMPLE BUY/SELL INDICATOR
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SMT Sniper Entry Engine is not designed to be used as a blind signal generator.
A raw correlated-market divergence must move through multiple stages:
One market sweeps liquidity
→ the comparison market does not make the same sweep
→ the sweeping market reclaims its reference
→ sweep depth is evaluated
→ chart-candle direction is checked
→ rejection-close quality is checked
→ range expansion is checked
→ the Base Quality Score is calculated
→ pair correlation is checked
→ external-range location is checked
→ divergence separation is checked
→ the Sniper Score is calculated
→ the SMT event is accepted
→ the confirmation window opens
→ directional displacement is accumulated
→ the SMT candle must be broken
→ FVG and/or micro-structure evidence is accumulated
→ the setup must avoid invalidation
→ the setup must confirm before expiration
→ the final UP or DOWN label appears
Each module serves a different purpose.
The comparison engine defines the external market used for SMT analysis.
The liquidity engine identifies the one-market sweep.
The reclaim engine checks whether the liquidity event closed back inside the reference.
The Base Quality Score evaluates the completed SMT candle.
The Sniper Context Engine evaluates correlation, location, separation, and sweep quality.
The sequential confirmation engine evaluates what price does after the SMT event.
The invalidation and expiration controls remove setups that no longer satisfy the intended sequence.
The dashboard explains the current engine state.
This makes the script a coordinated SMT-confirmation workflow rather than a simple divergence marker.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚙️ HOW THE SCRIPT WORKS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The script operates through connected calculation stages.
First, the engine selects a comparison symbol.
Auto mode uses the built-in symbol matrix.
Manual mode uses the symbol selected by the user.
The comparison market is requested on the same timeframe as the chart.
= request.security(
comparisonSymbol,
timeframe.period,
,
gaps = barmerge.gaps_off,
lookahead = barmerge.lookahead_off,
ignore_invalid_symbol = true)
The request uses lookahead_off.
The engine then calculates rolling chart and comparison-market liquidity references while excluding the current candle.
float chartPriorLow = ta.lowest(low , referenceLookback)
float chartPriorHigh = ta.highest(high , referenceLookback)
float comparisonPriorLow = ta.lowest(comparisonLow , referenceLookback)
float comparisonPriorHigh = ta.highest(comparisonHigh , referenceLookback)
The default reference lookback is 12 bars.
A bullish divergence is possible when one market sweeps a prior low and the other market does not.
A bearish divergence is possible when one market sweeps a prior high and the other market does not.
The sweeping market must reclaim the level on the same completed candle.
The candidate is then evaluated through:
• ATR-normalized sweep depth
• chart-candle direction
• close location
• range expansion
• Base Quality Score
• pair correlation
• external-range location
• divergence separation
• Sniper Score
• directional cooldown
When the SMT event is accepted, the engine stores:
• setup direction
• SMT bar
• SMT extreme
• SMT reaction trigger
• current ATR
• Base Quality Score
• Sniper Score
• sequential evidence states
• first confirmed FVG coordinates
The engine then monitors the next closed candles.
A final signal is accepted only when the active preset’s required evidence is present and the setup has not invalidated or expired.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🟢 BULLISH SMT LOGIC
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
A bullish SMT candidate begins at prior lows.
The engine checks the chart symbol and comparison market together.
A bullish sweep divergence exists when either:
• the chart symbol trades below its prior low while the comparison market does not trade below its corresponding prior low
• the comparison market trades below its prior low while the chart symbol does not trade below its corresponding prior low
The engine accepts a sweep from either market.
The sweeping market must reclaim the prior-low reference when reclaim validation is active.
The completed chart candle must also satisfy the active quality requirements.
The default Sniper profile evaluates:
• sufficient ATR-normalized sweep depth
• bullish chart-candle direction
• a close in the stronger portion of the candle
• minimum candle-range expansion
• minimum Base Quality Score
• minimum positive pair correlation
• location near the lower portion of the external range
• minimum divergence separation
• minimum Sniper Score
• directional SMT cooldown availability
bool bullishSmtEvent =
bullishRawSmtCandidate and
bullishSniperPass and
bullishCooldownPass
When the bullish SMT event is confirmed, the engine stores:
• the SMT low as the bullish invalidation extreme
• the SMT high as the bullish reaction-break trigger
• the current ATR
• the current Base Quality Score
• the current Sniper Score
The confirmation sequence then waits for:
• bullish displacement
• a close above the SMT candle high
• FVG and/or micro-structure evidence according to the active preset
The bullish SMT marker is context.
The final blue UP label is the completed signal.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔴 BEARISH SMT LOGIC
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
A bearish SMT candidate begins at prior highs.
A bearish sweep divergence exists when either:
• the chart symbol trades above its prior high while the comparison market does not trade above its corresponding prior high
• the comparison market trades above its prior high while the chart symbol does not trade above its corresponding prior high
The sweeping market must reclaim the prior-high reference when reclaim validation is active.
The completed chart candle must also satisfy the active quality requirements.
The default Sniper profile evaluates:
• sufficient ATR-normalized sweep depth
• bearish chart-candle direction
• a close in the weaker portion of the candle
• minimum candle-range expansion
• minimum Base Quality Score
• minimum positive pair correlation
• location near the upper portion of the external range
• minimum divergence separation
• minimum Sniper Score
• directional SMT cooldown availability
When the bearish SMT event is confirmed, the engine stores:
• the SMT high as the bearish invalidation extreme
• the SMT low as the bearish reaction-break trigger
• the current ATR
• the current Base Quality Score
• the current Sniper Score
The confirmation sequence then waits for:
• bearish displacement
• a close below the SMT candle low
• FVG and/or micro-structure evidence according to the active preset
The bearish SMT marker is context.
The final orange DOWN label is the completed signal.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
💎 SMT QUALITY FILTER SYSTEM
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The script calculates separate bullish and bearish Base Quality Scores.
The score evaluates the completed SMT candle and its underlying liquidity event.
Each score is limited to 0–100.
The components are:
Sweep Role — maximum 25 points
The event must contain a valid one-market liquidity sweep.
Only one market should take the corresponding prior high or prior low.
Reclaim — maximum 20 points
The sweeping market must close back inside its prior liquidity reference.
Sweep Depth — maximum 20 points
The distance beyond the reference is measured relative to the corresponding market’s ATR.
Chart Candle Direction — maximum 15 points
Bullish SMT prefers a bullish chart candle.
Bearish SMT prefers a bearish chart candle.
Rejection Close — maximum 10 points
Bullish SMT prefers the chart close toward the high of the candle.
Bearish SMT prefers the chart close toward the low.
Range Expansion — maximum 10 points
The chart candle’s total range is compared with chart ATR.
The total score structure is:
25 + 20 + 20 + 15 + 10 + 10 = 100 points.
Preset-dependent minimum Base Quality Scores are:
• Standard: 60
• Sniper: 75
• Elite: 85
The Base Quality Score is not a win rate.
It is not a probability.
It measures how closely the completed SMT event matches the engine’s liquidity and candle-quality framework.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📏 VOLATILITY / ATR NORMALIZATION FILTER
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The indicator uses ATR normalization to compare distances across changing volatility conditions.
ATR normalization is applied to:
• chart-side sweep depth
• comparison-side sweep depth
• divergence separation
• displacement body size
• setup invalidation buffer
• chart-candle range expansion
Sweep depth is calculated in relation to the ATR of the market that performed the sweep.
For example:
Chart Sweep Depth = distance beyond chart reference / chart ATR.
Comparison Sweep Depth = distance beyond comparison reference / comparison ATR.
Preset-dependent minimum sweep depth is:
• Standard: 0.04 ATR
• Sniper: 0.10 ATR
• Elite: 0.18 ATR
The chart candle must also meet a minimum range-to-ATR requirement:
• Standard: 0.40 ATR
• Sniper: 0.60 ATR
• Elite: 0.85 ATR
The setup invalidation buffer is based on the ATR stored when the SMT event occurs.
The default buffer is 0.10 ATR beyond the SMT extreme.
ATR normalization helps reduce dependence on raw price units.
It does not make one configuration universal.
Different symbols, sessions, data feeds, and market conditions can still produce different behavior.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🕯️ DISPLACEMENT QUALITY FILTER
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
After an SMT event is accepted, the engine requires directional displacement before a final signal can appear.
A bullish displacement candle requires:
• a confirmed closed candle
• close above open
• body size of at least 0.45 ATR
• body-to-range ratio of at least 0.55
• upper wick no greater than 0.35 of the full candle range
A bearish displacement candle requires:
• a confirmed closed candle
• close below open
• body size of at least 0.45 ATR
• body-to-range ratio of at least 0.55
• lower wick no greater than 0.35 of the full candle range
bool bullishDisplacement =
barstate.isconfirmed and
close > open and
signalCandleBody >= chartAtr * displacementBodyAtr and
signalBodyRatio >= displacementBodyPercent and
bullishOppositeWickRatio <= maximumOppositeWickPercent and
bullishPreviousBreakPass
The bearish process is mirrored.
The previous-bar break option is disabled in the locked default engine.
The more important directional reaction requirement is the SMT-candle break.
Displacement confirms that the market produced a completed directional response after the SMT event.
It does not guarantee continuation.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📊 REACTION STRENGTH FILTER
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The engine does not require every confirmation component to appear on the same candle.
Instead, reaction evidence can accumulate across separate closed candles inside the temporary confirmation window.
The engine tracks:
• displacement
• SMT-candle break
• Fair Value Gap
• micro-structure break
Bullish SMT-candle break:
• price must close above the stored SMT candle high
Bearish SMT-candle break:
• price must close below the stored SMT candle low
Bullish FVG:
• current low is above the high from two bars earlier
Bearish FVG:
• current high is below the low from two bars earlier
Bullish micro-structure break:
• current close exceeds the highest high from the previous five closed bars
Bearish micro-structure break:
• current close falls below the lowest low from the previous five closed bars
Evidence is persistent while the setup remains active.
For example:
SMT event
→ displacement appears
→ FVG appears later
→ structure break appears on another candle
→ final signal confirms
The active Engine Preset determines which accumulated evidence is required.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧼 CONFIRMED SIGNAL FILTER
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Permanent SMT events and final UP / DOWN labels wait for candle close.
The engine uses confirmed-bar checks for:
• raw SMT candidates
• final SMT acceptance
• displacement
• FVG detection
• micro-structure breaks
• setup invalidation
• final UP signals
• final DOWN signals
The comparison-market request uses lookahead_off.
Rolling liquidity references exclude the current candle.
No future candle is used to decide whether the current candle contains an SMT event.
No final signal is plotted back onto the original SMT candle after later evidence becomes available.
The confirmation opportunity is temporary.
The default window is eight bars.
The minimum delay is one bar after the SMT event.
If the active evidence does not complete in time, the setup expires.
Historical output can still change when:
• Engine Preset changes
• comparison symbol changes
• Auto or Manual mode changes
• chart symbol changes
• timeframe changes
• exchange or broker feed changes
• historical data is revised
• the loaded history range changes
Confirmed-close logic prevents unfinished-candle conditions from becoming permanent chart signals.
It does not mean all brokers or data feeds will produce identical historical output.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎯 ENTRY MODEL
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SMT Sniper Entry Engine uses a confirmed-signal entry model rather than a built-in broker-order model.
A final directional setup is created only when:
• a qualified SMT event exists
• the confirmation window is open
• the setup has not invalidated
• all preset-required evidence has been accumulated
• final signal cooldown is available
• the current candle is confirmed
The final signal reference is the close of the candle where the UP or DOWN label is printed.
For an UP setup:
• the label appears below the confirmed signal candle
• the signal represents completed bullish SMT confirmation
For a DOWN setup:
• the label appears above the confirmed signal candle
• the signal represents completed bearish SMT confirmation
The script does not automatically calculate:
• an entry line
• a stop-loss level
• take-profit targets
• position size
• account risk
• broker quantity
• trade outcome
The final signal-bar close can be used as an analytical reference.
It is not a guaranteed fill.
Users must define their own execution, invalidation, stop, target, and risk model.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔗 COMPARISON MARKET MODEL
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The indicator supports Auto and Manual comparison-symbol modes.
Auto mode recognizes common ticker text and assigns a predefined positively related market.
Built-in mappings include:
Metals
• XAU or GOLD → OANDA:XAGUSD
• XAG or SILVER → OANDA:XAUUSD
Indices
• NAS, US100, USTEC, NDX, or NQ → OANDA:SPX500USD
• SPX, US500, SP500, or ES → OANDA:NAS100USD
• US30, DJI, DOW, or YM → OANDA:SPX500USD
Cryptocurrencies
• BTC → BINANCE:ETHUSDT
• ETH → BINANCE:BTCUSDT
Forex majors
• EURUSD ↔ GBPUSD
• AUDUSD ↔ NZDUSD
• USDCAD ↔ USDCHF
• USDJPY → CADJPY
JPY crosses
• EURJPY ↔ GBPJPY
• AUDJPY ↔ NZDJPY
• CADJPY → USDJPY
• CHFJPY → EURJPY
EUR and GBP crosses
• EURAUD ↔ GBPAUD
• EURNZD ↔ GBPNZD
• EURCAD ↔ GBPCAD
• EURCHF ↔ GBPCHF
• EURGBP → GBPUSD
AUD and NZD crosses
• AUDCAD ↔ NZDCAD
• AUDCHF ↔ NZDCHF
• AUDNZD → NZDUSD
Auto mode is based on ticker-name recognition.
Broker symbols can include prefixes, suffixes, futures contract codes, or synthetic names that are not recognized by the built-in matrix.
When the chart symbol is not recognized, the engine can fall back to the Manual Comparison Symbol value.
The dashboard should therefore be checked before relying on Auto mode.
Manual mode allows the user to select the comparison market directly.
The current engine is designed for positively correlated relationships.
Selecting an inversely related market can make the correlation and SMT logic unsuitable.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎯 SNIPER SCORE MODEL
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The engine produces separate bullish and bearish Sniper Scores.
The Sniper Score evaluates broader context around the SMT event.
The maximum score is 100.
The structure is:
Base SMT Quality — maximum 35 points
The 0–100 Base Quality Score contributes 35% of its value.
Pair Correlation — maximum 25 points
Positive effective correlation contributes proportionally.
External-Range Location — maximum 20 points
Bullish SMT receives this component when it occurs below the active maximum bullish range position.
Bearish SMT receives this component when it occurs above the active minimum bearish range position.
Divergence Separation — maximum 10 points
The event receives this component when the non-sweeping market holds its reference by at least the required ATR-normalized distance.
Sweep Depth — maximum 10 points
A valid minimum sweep receives five points.
A sweep at least 1.5 times the minimum depth receives ten points.
Minimum accepted Sniper Scores are:
• Standard: 60
• Sniper: 78
• Elite: 88
Minimum positive pair correlation is:
• Standard: 0.35
• Sniper: 0.55
• Elite: 0.70
External-range requirements are:
Bullish maximum position
• Standard: 0.45
• Sniper: 0.33
• Elite: 0.25
Bearish minimum position
• Standard: 0.55
• Sniper: 0.67
• Elite: 0.75
Minimum divergence separation is:
• Standard: 0.00 ATR
• Sniper: 0.03 ATR
• Elite: 0.08 ATR
The Sniper Score is not a probability.
A score of 88 does not mean an 88% probability of success.
It measures rule-based confluence according to this script’s internal framework.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📦 ACTIVE SMT / FVG VISUAL SYSTEM
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The script separates SMT context from final signal confirmation.
Historical SMT visuals can include:
• a dotted line from the prior chart-side liquidity reference to the SMT candle
• a minimal bullish or bearish marker near the SMT event
The default historical visual system keeps recent objects only.
The default limits are:
• eight bullish SMT lines
• eight bullish SMT markers
• eight bearish SMT lines
• eight bearish SMT markers
• ten final signal labels
• six signal FVG boxes
Older visual objects can be removed when the corresponding recent-only limit is exceeded.
This is chart-object management.
It does not move a signal to another candle.
Final signal visuals include:
UP
• blue label
• white bold-italic text
• printed below the confirmed signal candle
DOWN
• orange label
• white bold-italic text
• printed above the confirmed signal candle
Signal FVG Box
• appears only when stored FVG evidence exists
• uses the FVG that participated in the active confirmation sequence
• extends 12 bars to the right
• uses a lightly shaded bullish or bearish fill
The FVG box is an analytical confirmation visual.
It is not a guaranteed support, resistance, entry, stop, or target zone.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🚦 ONE ACTIVE SMT SETUP AT A TIME
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The script maintains one active pending SMT confirmation sequence at a time.
When a qualified bullish SMT event appears:
• the active setup direction becomes bullish
• the bullish SMT extreme and trigger are stored
• the evidence state is reset
When a qualified bearish SMT event appears:
• the active setup direction becomes bearish
• the bearish SMT extreme and trigger are stored
• the evidence state is reset
A newly accepted SMT event can therefore replace the currently stored pending setup state.
The active setup remains in memory until:
• the final UP signal confirms
• the final DOWN signal confirms
• the setup invalidates
• the setup expires
• another accepted SMT event overwrites the pending state
This design prevents multiple overlapping confirmation sequences from creating an unclear chart state.
It does not prevent the user from performing independent analysis on other markets or timeframes.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚠️ SEQUENTIAL CONFIRMATION WINDOW HANDLING
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The default confirmation window is eight bars.
The final signal cannot appear on the original SMT candle because the minimum bars after SMT is one.
The engine monitors each completed candle inside the window.
Evidence can be accumulated in different orders.
For example:
SMT
→ displacement
→ SMT-candle break
→ FVG
→ final signal
or:
SMT
→ FVG
→ displacement
→ SMT-candle break
→ structure break
→ final signal
Preset behavior:
Standard
Uses Reactive confirmation.
Requires:
• displacement
• SMT-candle break
Sniper
Uses Confirmed confirmation.
Requires:
• displacement
• SMT-candle break
• FVG or micro-structure break
Elite
Uses Elite confirmation.
Requires:
• displacement
• SMT-candle break
• FVG
• micro-structure break
The engine does not use the historical high-low sequence inside a candle to simulate order execution.
It evaluates whether each closed candle satisfied a defined piece of evidence.
If the setup does not complete inside the window, it expires.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🏷️ SMT SNIPER LABELS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The indicator uses separate context and final-signal labels.
SMT Context Markers
The default SMT marker layout is Minimal.
Bullish SMT uses an upward marker.
Bearish SMT uses a downward marker.
The marker appears on the actual SMT confirmation candle.
Its tooltip can include:
• bullish or bearish SMT direction
• Sniper Score
• Base Quality Score
• effective pair correlation
• active comparison symbol
Final Signal Labels
The final labels display:
𝙐𝙋
or:
𝘿𝙊𝙒𝙉
UP uses a blue background.
DOWN uses an orange background.
The text is white.
Available final-label sizes are:
• Tiny
• Small
• Normal
• Large
• Huge
Normal is the default.
The UP tooltip can include:
• bullish SMT confirmation mode
• final stored Sniper Score
• final stored Base Quality Score
The DOWN tooltip contains the mirrored information.
The SMT marker and final signal label serve different purposes.
The SMT marker identifies the qualified correlated-market divergence.
The UP or DOWN label identifies the completed sequential confirmation.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📍 SMT DISPLAY MODES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The indicator operates directly on the main price chart.
The public Display settings provide control over:
Show SMT
Shows or hides historical SMT markers and reference lines.
Show UP / DOWN
Shows or hides final signal labels.
UP / DOWN Label Size
Controls the size of final UP and DOWN labels.
Show Signal FVG
Shows or hides the stored FVG box associated with a final signal.
Show Dashboard
Shows or hides the premium bottom-right dashboard.
The internal visual profile uses:
• Clean layout
• Recent Only historical display
• dotted SMT reference lines
• minimal SMT markers
• normal SMT marker size
• limited historical object counts
• no separate displacement circles by default
Input values are hidden from TradingView’s status line.
Diagnostic plots remain available in the Data Window without adding visible price-scale clutter.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧹 SETUP INVALIDATION
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Not every accepted SMT event remains eligible.
A bullish setup invalidates when a completed candle closes below:
SMT low − stored SMT ATR × 0.10.
A bearish setup invalidates when a completed candle closes above:
SMT high + stored SMT ATR × 0.10.
The ATR value is stored when the SMT event appears.
This keeps the invalidation buffer linked to the volatility present when the setup was created.
A setup can also fail to produce a final signal because:
• the confirmation window expires
• displacement never appears
• the SMT candle is not broken
• required FVG evidence does not appear
• required structure evidence does not appear
• the final signal cooldown is active
• a newly accepted SMT event replaces the pending state
The directional SMT cooldown is 15 bars.
The final signal cooldown is eight bars.
A rejected, invalidated, or expired pending sequence does not print a final UP or DOWN label.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📟 DASHBOARD
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The indicator includes a premium dashboard in the bottom-right corner of the chart.
The header displays:
trade_w_samet • SMT SNIPER
Current State
Possible states include:
• SCANNING MARKET
• BULLISH SMT DETECTED
• BEARISH SMT DETECTED
• BULLISH SETUP BUILDING
• BEARISH SETUP BUILDING
• UP SIGNAL CONFIRMED
• DOWN SIGNAL CONFIRMED
Comparison
Displays the active comparison symbol.
Correlation
Displays the current effective pair correlation.
Engine
Displays:
• STANDARD
• SNIPER
• ELITE
Pair Mode
Displays:
• AUTO
• MANUAL
Signal Score
When a relevant setup is active, the dashboard displays:
current Sniper Score / required Sniper Score.
When no setup is active, it displays:
NO ACTIVE SETUP.
UP / DOWN Counts
Displays the number of final confirmed UP and DOWN signals calculated on the loaded chart history.
Footer
Displays:
• BAR-CLOSE
• NON-REPAINT
• LIVE
The dashboard is not TradingView Strategy Tester.
It does not display:
• win rate
• profit factor
• expectancy
• drawdown
• net profit
• broker-verified results
UP and DOWN counts are signal counts only.
“LIVE” means the dashboard updates with the latest available script state.
It does not mean the script predicts unfinished intrabar outcomes.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🚨 ALERT SYSTEM
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SMT Sniper Entry Engine includes static TradingView alert conditions for:
• Bullish SMT
• Bearish SMT
• UP
• DOWN
• Any Signal
• Any SMT
Bullish SMT
Triggers when a bullish SMT event passes the complete Base Quality and Sniper acceptance process.
Bearish SMT
Triggers when a bearish SMT event passes the mirrored acceptance process.
UP
Triggers when the bullish sequential confirmation process is complete.
DOWN
Triggers when the bearish sequential confirmation process is complete.
Any Signal
Combines final UP and DOWN conditions.
Any SMT
Combines bullish and bearish SMT conditions.
The script also includes dynamic alert() messages for final UP and DOWN signals.
Dynamic messages can include:
• product name
• direction
• chart ticker
• chart timeframe
• confirmed close price
• active comparison symbol
if enableAlerts
if buySignal
alert(
"SMT Sniper | UP | " +
syminfo.ticker +
" | " +
timeframe.period +
" | Close: " +
str.tostring(close, format.mintick) +
" | Comparison: " +
comparisonSymbol,
alert.freq_once_per_bar_close)
The DOWN dynamic message uses the mirrored format.
Dynamic final-signal alerts use once-per-bar-close frequency.
Alerts are monitoring tools.
They do not place, modify, or close broker orders.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔔 HOW TO USE ALERTS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
For separate static conditions:
1. Add SMT Sniper Entry Engine to the chart.
2. Open TradingView’s Create Alert window.
3. Select SMT Sniper as the condition.
4. Choose Bullish SMT, Bearish SMT, UP, DOWN, Any Signal, or Any SMT.
5. Select the desired notification method.
6. Use a confirmed-bar frequency where appropriate.
7. Test the alert before relying on it.
For one combined dynamic final-signal alert:
1. Enable Alerts in the indicator settings.
2. Open TradingView’s Create Alert window.
3. Select SMT Sniper.
4. Select Any alert() function call.
5. Configure the delivery method.
6. Test the UP and DOWN message format.
The combined dynamic alert sends final UP and DOWN events through one TradingView alert.
Static Any Signal also combines UP and DOWN conditions, but uses the static alertcondition() message.
When indicator settings, code, symbol, or timeframe are materially changed, an already-created TradingView alert can continue using the script snapshot stored when that alert was created.
Recreate alerts after important configuration changes.
Alert delivery can depend on:
• TradingView servers
• selected symbol
• selected timeframe
• market-data availability
• realtime feed status
• symbol session
• user alert configuration
• webhook or external-service availability
Creating an alert does not guarantee broker execution.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧪 HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
A practical workflow:
1. Add SMT Sniper Entry Engine to a standard candlestick chart.
2. Begin with Engine Preset set to Sniper.
3. Keep Comparison Symbol Mode on Auto for supported symbols.
4. Review the Comparison field in the dashboard.
5. If the automatic market is not appropriate, switch to Manual.
6. Select a positively related comparison market.
7. Keep Show SMT enabled while learning the setup sequence.
8. Observe the historical liquidity reference line.
9. Observe the minimal SMT marker.
10. Treat the SMT marker as context, not as the final signal.
11. Watch the dashboard state.
12. Wait for a blue UP or orange DOWN label.
13. Review the active Sniper Score and required threshold.
14. Review the correlation value.
15. Review the signal FVG box when one is available.
16. Use alerts for monitoring rather than blind execution.
17. Evaluate broader market structure independently.
18. Review session conditions, volatility, spread, and news risk.
19. Define personal entry, invalidation, stop, target, and position-size rules.
20. Test the exact symbol, timeframe, exchange, broker feed, and comparison pair personally used.
The indicator is designed for structured review.
It should not be treated as an automatic decision-maker.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧠 WHAT MAKES THIS SCRIPT ORIGINAL
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SMT divergence, liquidity sweeps, correlation, ATR, Fair Value Gaps, and structure breaks are familiar technical-analysis concepts.
These concepts are not unique by themselves.
The originality of SMT Sniper Entry Engine lies in the coordinated process applied to them:
automatic comparison-market selection
→ closed-bar rolling liquidity references
→ one-market liquidity sweep
→ same-bar reclaim
→ ATR-normalized Base Quality Score
→ log-return pair correlation
→ external-range location
→ ATR-normalized divergence separation
→ 0–100 Sniper Score
→ preset-driven SMT acceptance
→ temporary sequential confirmation
→ displacement evidence
→ SMT-candle break
→ FVG and micro-structure evidence
→ ATR-buffered invalidation
→ setup expiration
→ permanent UP or DOWN signal
→ recent-only visual management
→ static and dynamic alerts
→ premium diagnostic dashboard
Distinctive implementation features include:
• accepting a valid sweep from either market
• using rolling closed-bar references instead of pivot confirmation
• separating the SMT event from the final signal
• calculating separate Base Quality and Sniper Scores
• requiring positive pair correlation according to preset
• using preset-specific external-range thresholds
• measuring divergence separation relative to ATR
• accumulating confirmation evidence across separate candles
• storing the SMT candle as the reaction trigger
• storing ATR at the moment the setup is armed
• using different confirmation strictness for Standard, Sniper, and Elite
• limiting historical objects without relocating signals
• providing automatic comparison-market assistance with manual override
• supporting both static and combined dynamic alerts
• exposing detailed diagnostics through the Data Window
The script is not a simple combination of unrelated indicators.
Every module supports the same objective: determining whether a closed-bar SMT divergence has enough liquidity, correlation, location, reaction, and confirmation evidence to become a permanent final signal.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚠️ IMPORTANT PRACTICAL NOTES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Signal frequency depends on:
• Engine Preset

Fewer signals do not guarantee better results.
The built-in Auto matrix uses predefined OANDA and BINANCE symbols.
The chart symbol can come from another broker or exchange.
Different feeds can produce:

• different correlation readings
• different final signals
Manual mode can be used when comparison-feed consistency is important.
The current engine expects a positive relationship.
An inversely related comparison market should not be selected.
The dashboard’s UP and DOWN values are signal counts.
They are not wins and losses.
The Signal Score is a confluence score.
It is not historical accuracy.
The SMT marker is not the final signal.
The final UP or DOWN label appears after post-SMT confirmation.
Changing settings recalculates historical conditions.
Changing the comparison market can materially change the script’s output.

It does not model financing or swap.
It does not evaluate order-book conditions.
It does not evaluate news risk.
It uses bar-based OHLC data.
It does not reconstruct exact intrabar price sequence.
It assumes a positive comparison relationship.
Its automatic matrix cannot recognize every broker symbol.
Unsupported Auto symbols can use the Manual Comparison fallback.
Correlation can change over time.
A historically correlated pair can temporarily decouple.

The script is designed to support structured analysis.
It does not promise profitable results.
It does not remove market risk.
It does not execute trades.
It does not calculate position size.
It does not provide a built-in TP / SL trade-management model.
It should not be used as a blind UP / DOWN system.
Repainting and Timing Disclosure
SMT Sniper Entry Engine is designed around confirmed-bar calculations.
Permanent SMT events and final UP / DOWN labels use barstate.isconfirmed.
The comparison-market request uses:
• barmerge.gaps_off
• barmerge.lookahead_off
Liquidity references use previous closed candles.
The current candle is excluded from the prior-reference calculation.
The script does not use:
• pivot-high functions
• pivot-low functions
• future-bar confirmation
• negative plot offsets
• historical signal backplotting
• later relocation of final signal labels
A final UP or DOWN signal appears on the candle where the complete confirmation sequence becomes valid.
It is not moved backward to the original SMT candle.
Historical drawing cleanup can delete older lines, markers, labels, or boxes when the recent-object limit is exceeded.
Deleting an old drawing is not repainting.
The original signal bar is not changed.
Historical results can still differ when:
• settings are changed
• comparison symbols are changed
• Auto or Manual mode is changed
• chart symbols are changed
• timeframes are changed
• broker or exchange feeds are changed
• historical data is revised
• available chart history is changed
Realtime behavior also depends on when TradingView receives the final data for the closing candle.
Confirmed-close design reduces unfinished-candle changes.
It does not eliminate market risk, data-feed differences, or alert-delivery limitations.

xKen-t Williams %R + EMA w/COT Bias GateWhat's original here
This isn't a Williams %R repaint. Standard %R gives a level; this script converts it into a filtered, context-aware timing engine through four combined mechanisms: (1) exit-from-extreme triggers that fire when %R crosses back out of −80/−20 rather than when it reaches them, so signals mark the reversal instead of the ongoing move; (2) EMA-side confirmation that validates the exit against the 13-EMA; (3) a −50 regime filter that blocks counter-regime signals; and (4) a directional-bias gate that normalizes any external series you feed it (e.g. a COT commercial-net line) to a 0–100 position-in-range index and suppresses every signal that disagrees with that bias. The gate is the core idea — it makes the oscillator time entries only in a separately chosen direction, turning a reversal oscillator into a with-context pullback tool. A status table surfaces %R, its EMA, the regime, the active bias, the higher-timeframe read, and the last signal in one place.
Overview
A Williams %R momentum tool rebuilt around three ideas: it signals on the exit from an extreme rather than the touch, confirms that exit with the %R/EMA relationship, and can gate every signal by an external directional bias (such as Commitments of Traders positioning) so only signals agreeing with that bias are shown. This targets the two classic Williams %R weaknesses — catching falling knives at the band, and firing endless counter-trend reversals during strong trends.
What it calculates
- Williams %R (default 21): the standard oscillator (0 to −100) measuring where the close sits within the lookback's high-low range.
- 13-EMA of %R: a smoothing/confirmation line.
- Triggers: in "Band exit" mode a long fires when %R crosses back up through −80 (leaving oversold) and a short when it crosses back down through −20 (leaving overbought). In "EMA cross in zone" mode the trigger is %R crossing its EMA while in the lower/upper half. Either way, it marks the turn, not the extreme reading itself.
- EMA confirmation (optional): requires %R on the trigger side of its EMA at signal time.
Regime filter (optional): longs only when the %R EMA is above the −50 midline, shorts only when below.
- COT Bias Gate: point the "COT source" input at any external series on the chart — e.g. a Commitments of Traders commercial-net or COT-index line. The script converts it to a 0–100 position-in-range index over a lookback; ≥80 is treated as bullish bias, ≤20 as bearish. With the gate on, longs show only in a bullish bias and shorts only in a bearish one; opposite-bias signals are suppressed. You can also set the bias manually or turn the gate off for standalone %R.
- Divergence (optional): regular bull/bear divergence between price pivots and %R pivots.
Higher-timeframe read (optional): shows a higher-timeframe %R value in the table for top-down context.
How to use it
1. Add it on your entry timeframe (defaults: %R 21, EMA 13, band-exit, EMA confirmation on).
2. Set the bias — manually (Bullish/Bearish), or "Auto" pointed at a COT/context line, or Off.
3. Trade the markers: green up-triangle = confirmed long trigger, red down-triangle = confirmed short. Combine with your own levels and risk management.
Notes and limitations
- Divergence markers are drawn back at the confirmed pivot using an offset — they plot in the past and can repaint until the pivot forms. Treat them as context, not a standalone trigger.
- The gate reads whatever series feeds the source input; on the default (Close) the "bias" is computed from price, not COT — point it at a real COT/context line for it to be meaningful.
- The higher-timeframe read uses non-lookahead requests (no future data).
- Analysis tool for timing within a chosen bias. It does not predict outcomes and is not financial advice. Indikator
MACD Pullback Validation with Divergence Filters [algo_aakash]MACD Pullback Validation with Divergence Filters is a momentum confirmation indicator designed to identify continuation opportunities after temporary pullbacks rather than generating signals from every MACD crossover.
Instead of relying on a single event, the script evaluates multiple stages of market behavior. It begins by detecting pullbacks within an existing momentum cycle, waits for momentum recovery, confirms that price and the MACD histogram are no longer weakening, and optionally verifies that the setup occurs near significant price locations using pivot-derived support/resistance levels or Bollinger Band extremes.
The objective is to reduce low-quality MACD signals by requiring several independent conditions to align before a bullish or bearish signal is displayed.
Problem Statement
Traditional MACD crossover signals frequently occur during ranging markets or immediately after short-lived momentum fluctuations. Likewise, divergence signals alone often appear too early and do not necessarily indicate that momentum has already shifted back in the anticipated direction.
This indicator addresses that limitation by requiring multiple confirmation stages rather than treating each condition as an independent trading signal.
Instead of responding to isolated events, it evaluates whether a pullback has occurred, whether momentum is rebuilding, whether a recent divergence supports the move, and whether price is located in an area where reversals may be more meaningful.
Methodology
The analytical framework consists of several sequential validation layers.
First, MACD crossover events occurring above or below the zero line are monitored to identify temporary pullbacks within an existing momentum cycle. These crossover events establish the recent pullback state.
Next, the script monitors the MACD histogram. Bullish momentum requires the histogram to remain above zero while increasing relative to the previous bar. Bearish momentum requires the histogram to remain below zero while decreasing.
The indicator then waits for the MACD line itself to cross the zero line, treating this as evidence that momentum has shifted back in the direction of the prevailing move.
Histogram divergence is calculated using confirmed pivot highs and pivot lows. Regular bullish divergence requires price to form a lower low while the histogram forms a higher low. Regular bearish divergence requires price to form a higher high while the histogram forms a lower high. Hidden divergence calculations are also available for users who wish to visualize continuation-type divergence.
Finally, optional contextual filters may be enabled.
The Support/Resistance filter checks whether the current price is interacting with recently confirmed pivot-based levels.
The Bollinger Band filter requires bullish setups to occur after closing below the lower band and bearish setups after closing above the upper band, helping identify momentum reversals from statistically extended price conditions.
Signals are generated only after every enabled validation layer has been satisfied.
Signal Workflow
Bullish workflow
1. Detect a recent bearish MACD crossover occurring above the zero line to identify a pullback.
2. Confirm a regular bullish MACD histogram divergence using pivot comparisons.
3. Require the MACD histogram to begin strengthening.
4. Wait for the MACD line to cross back above the zero line.
5. Optionally require interaction with recent pivot-based support.
6. Optionally require price to close below the lower Bollinger Band.
7. Display a bullish signal.
Bearish workflow
1. Detect a recent bullish MACD crossover occurring below the zero line.
2. Confirm a regular bearish MACD histogram divergence.
3. Require bearish histogram acceleration.
4. Wait for the MACD line to cross below the zero line.
5. Optionally require interaction with recent pivot-based resistance.
6. Optionally require price to close above the upper Bollinger Band.
7. Display a bearish signal.
Why This Indicator Is Different
Many MACD indicators generate signals immediately after crossovers, while divergence indicators typically evaluate price and momentum independently.
This script integrates these concepts into a sequential validation framework where each condition serves a different analytical purpose.
The pullback logic identifies temporary counter-trend momentum.
The histogram evaluates whether momentum is rebuilding.
The zero-line crossover confirms broader momentum alignment.
Divergence provides evidence that momentum and price are no longer moving in agreement.
Optional pivot interaction and Bollinger Band filters add market-location confirmation before a signal is produced.
Rather than displaying every crossover or every divergence, the indicator waits until multiple independent conditions align before producing a trading signal.
Inputs
The script includes configurable parameters for:
* MACD fast, slow, and signal periods
* Pullback lookback window
* Divergence pivot lengths
* Divergence range settings
* Optional hidden divergence display
* Optional Support/Resistance validation
* Pivot sensitivity
* Optional Bollinger Band confirmation
* Bollinger Band length and standard deviation
Alerts
Built-in alert conditions are available for:
* Bullish Signal
* Bearish Signal
* Regular Bullish Divergence
* Hidden Bullish Divergence
* Regular Bearish Divergence
* Hidden Bearish Divergence
Practical Usage
The indicator is intended for traders who prefer waiting for momentum confirmation after temporary pullbacks instead of reacting to every MACD crossover.
Optional Support/Resistance and Bollinger Band filters can be enabled to make signal selection more restrictive when additional price-location confirmation is desired.
Limitations
MACD histogram divergence relies on confirmed pivot highs and lows, so divergence signals are only confirmed after the required pivot bars have formed.
Support and resistance levels are derived from pivot calculations and represent algorithmically identified swing points rather than manually drawn market structure.
Like any momentum-based indicator, performance may vary across different market conditions and should be evaluated alongside a broader trading plan and appropriate risk management.
Notes
This indicator is intended as an analytical decision-support tool. It combines momentum analysis, pullback recognition, divergence detection, and optional contextual filters into a structured confirmation process rather than relying on any individual condition as a standalone trading signal.

Skew Divergence OscillatorSkew Divergence Oscillator
A bounded oscillator built from the rolling skewness (asymmetry) of returns — whether recent moves lean toward big up-days or big down-days — with a divergence engine that compares that asymmetry against price. The read most tools miss: when price makes a new high but return skew is turning down (large down-moves creeping in), the advance is quietly losing its character before price confirms it. It estimates skew from higher-resolution realized data, confirms divergences on a higher timeframe, and forward-calibrates whether they pay on the chart you're viewing — in plain language.
Why these parts are combined (not a mashup for show). Each fixes a flaw in the previous one. Skewness is a distributional read price action alone doesn't show — it captures which tail is getting heavier, a leading change in market character. Realized estimation measures skew from intrabar returns instead of one value per bar, so short-window skew isn't jumpy — the standard approach in modern risk research. Divergence relates that asymmetry back to price, turning a statistic into a timing read. Higher-timeframe confirmation and forward calibration remove single-timeframe noise and blind faith respectively. Together they form one coherent tool.
How it works. Returns feed a rolling third standardized moment (skew = m3/sd³). With realized estimation on, skew is computed from a lower-timeframe return stream (confirmed only). It's standardized and soft-bounded to ±100. Divergence is detected from confirmed price pivots versus the skew line (regular and optional hidden); with MTF on, it counts only if the higher timeframe agrees. Each signal is labelled by a triple barrier — a profit target and equal stop in ATR units plus a time limit — split into in-sample and recent out-of-sample, with a confidence interval and a multiple-testing check.
How to use. Read the Verdict (Bull/Bear skew divergence confirmed, unconfirmed, or Wait) and the Conviction, which reads "High" only when that divergence type shows a positive edge that survives the test on this symbol — otherwise it openly says "context only" or "no proven edge here." A skew divergence is an early character warning, not a trend signal — pair it with your own entry trigger and risk plan.
What's original. The realized-skew engine as a divergence source, the higher-timeframe confirmation layer, the triple-barrier forward calibration with an out-of-sample split, and a conviction read that admits when an apparent edge isn't statistically real.
Honesty & limitations. Skew from short windows is noisy. Edge figures are computed on this chart's own history with overlapping windows and no costs — context, not a guaranteed backtest; past behaviour doesn't predict the future. Non-repainting: pivots confirm late and never move; realized and HTF reads use confirmed data only.
