SMC Structure & Expectation [WavesUnchained]SMC Structure & Expectation - Professional Context & Confirmation Tool
A sophisticated Smart Money Concepts indicator that combines objective market structure analysis with intelligent expectation logic and professional order block validation. Built for traders who value context over signal spam.
4-LAYER ARCHITECTURE
Layer 1: Market Structure
✓ Objective HH/HL/LH/LL detection based on confirmed pivot swings
✓ Internal structure tracking (micro swings within major legs)
✓ Structure alignment detection (Internal + External agreement)
✓ No predictions - pure price action description
Layer 2: Expectation/Bias
✓ Logical hypotheses derived from current structure
✓ "Expect HL" in bullish structure / "Expect LH" in bearish structure
✓ "Expect Continuation" after BOS events
✓ Expectation ≠ Signal (can be wrong, that's the point)
Layer 3: Confirmation (BOS + Order Blocks)
✓ Break of Structure (BOS) detection with 2 modes:
• Conservative: Close-cross (default)
• Aggressive: High/Low-cross with optional close confirmation
✓ Professional Order Block System with 8 intelligent filters
✓ Only creates OBs when expectation is met
✓ Maximum 1 OB per direction (quality over quantity)
Layer 4: Optional Warnings
✓ Trendline break detection
✓ Early Top/Bottom warnings (volume + volatility divergence)
✓ Can be disabled for clean chart focus
PROFESSIONAL ORDER BLOCK SYSTEM
8 Quality Filters (Cascade Logic):
1. BOS-Only Guard : No OB without confirmed Break of Structure
2. Displacement Filter : Minimum 1.0 ATR momentum (customizable)
3. Location Filter : Must be in Premium (bearish) or Discount (bullish) zone
4. Size Filter : 3 modes available:
• Hard Limit: Reject oversized OBs (strict)
• Score Penalty: Allow but reduce priority (balanced, default)
• Disabled: No size filtering (permissive)
5. Volume Filter : Optional relative volume threshold
6. FVG Filter : Optional Fair Value Gap requirement
7. Mitigation Tracking : 30% penetration = mitigated (score penalty)
8. TTL (Time-To-Live) : Auto-delete after 80 bars (prevents chart clutter)
Priority Scoring System (0-100):
• HIGH Priority (>80) : Bright colors, zero transparency
• MED Priority (50-80) : Normal colors, 30% transparency
• LOW Priority (<50) : Faded colors, 60% transparency
Score Components:
✓ Displacement strength (10-30 points)
✓ FVG confluence (+20 points)
✓ Relative volume (+5-15 points)
✓ Premium/Discount location (+10-20 points)
✓ Structure alignment (+30 points if aligned, -15 if conflict)
✓ Leg strength (+15-25 points for strong impulse vs correction ratio)
✓ Size penalty (-0 to -30 points if oversized, Score Penalty mode only)
BAR COLORING MODES
Choose your preferred visual feedback:
1. Off : No bar coloring
2. Structure : Bullish/Bearish/Neutral structure states
3. Expectation : Continuation zones (green = expect bullish, red = expect bearish)
4. BOS + OB Priority (Default):
• Highlights active Order Blocks by priority
• BOS events in bright neon
• Faded structure colors when no OB active
5. Multi-Layer : Combines structure + priority intensity
6. Alignment : Shows Internal/External structure alignment (orange = conflict warning)
INTELLIGENT LOGGING SYSTEM
Priority-based log filtering to reduce noise:
• All : Every event (debug mode)
• MED+ : Only medium and high priority events
• HIGH Only : Only high priority setups
• Smart (Default): Adaptive filtering based on priority + context
Logs include:
✓ Structure changes (HH/HL/LH/LL)
✓ Expectation updates
✓ BOS events with confirmation status
✓ OB creation with full scoring breakdown
✓ OB reactions (Tap/Deep/Failure classification)
✓ Rejection reasons with "Potential Lost" analysis

PHILOSOPHY
This indicator follows the principle: "Context over signals, quality over quantity"
Expectations can be wrong - that's the point. They help you stay aware of the most likely scenario while remaining open to structure changes. When expectation is met AND confirmed by BOS + quality OB, you get a high-conviction setup.
Not a holy grail. Not a signal service. A professional analysis tool.

ORB Breakout & RetestORB Breakout & Breakdown Indicator - Complete Opening Range Strategy
Description :
The ORB (Opening Range Breakout) Breakout & Retest Indicator is a simple tool designed to identify opening range breakouts and breakdowns with retest confirmation. This indicator works on ANY timeframe while automatically analyzing 1-minute price action to detect precise entry signals.
What makes this indicator unique:
- ✅ Multi-Timeframe ORB Analysis - Simultaneously tracks 5-min, 15-min, and 30-min opening ranges
- ✅ Smart Retest Logic - Filters false breakouts by requiring price to retest and confirm the level
- ✅ Works on Any Chart Timeframe - View on 5-min, 15-min, 1-hour, or daily charts while getting 1-minute precision
- ✅ Both Long & Short Signals - Detects bullish breakouts AND bearish breakdowns
- ✅ Customizable Alerts - Get notified when confirmed setups occur
- ✅ Clean Visual Display - Compact table showing all ORB levels and signal status
How it Works:
Opening Range Detection :
- 5-Min ORB: Captures high/low from 9:30-9:35 AM
- 15-Min ORB: Captures high/low from 9:30-9:45 AM
- 30-Min ORB: Captures high/low from 9:30-10:00 AM
Breakout Confirmation (3-Step Process) :
1. Initial Break - Price closes above ORB High (or below ORB Low for shorts)
2. Retest - Price pulls back to retest the broken level
3. Confirmation - Price breaks through again, confirming the trend
This retest requirement dramatically reduces false signals and helps you enter trades with better risk/reward.
Perfect For :
- Day traders looking for opening range strategies
- Scalpers who need precise entry signals
- Swing traders identifying strong intraday momentum
- Anyone trading stocks, futures, forex, or crypto during market hours

Shadow Momentum EngineA proprietary oscillator that detects hidden divergences and momentum shifts before they appear on traditional indicators. Ideal for early entries in trends and for avoiding false breakout traps.

Un oscilador propietario que detecta divergencias ocultas y cambios de momentum antes de que aparezcan en los indicadores tradicionales. Perfecto para entradas tempranas en tendencias y para evitar trampas de falso breakout.
Gann ArchitectThe Gann Architect is a quantitative geometric engine designed to solve the primary limitation of standard Gann tools: Scaling.
Standard Gann Fans use fixed angles (e.g., 45 degrees for 1:1), which often fail when applied to volatile assets or different timeframes because they do not account for the specific price-to-time ratio of the asset. This indicator solves this by calculating a Dynamic Slope. It identifies the initial "Impulse Phase" (Anchor Low → First Major High) and mathematically "squares" the chart to fit that specific market structure.
Key Features
Dynamic Squaring: Automatically calculates the true 1:1 Master Line based on the asset's actual volatility, not an arbitrary angle.
Quantitative Alerts: Includes a built-in alert system. You can set alerts for "Crossed 1:1" (Trend Break), "Structural Fail 1:2" (Support Break), or "Impulse Breakout 2:1".
Real-Time Data Panel: A dashboard displays the exact price targets for the geometric levels, removing the need to eyeball the lines.
Efficiency: Uses a circular buffer memory system to ensure high performance ("100% potential") without slowing down your chart.
How to Use
This tool is designed as a Trend Following & Structure Map, not a reversal signal.
The 1:1 Line (Solid): This represents the "True Trend." In a strong bullish phase, price should respect this line as dynamic support. A confirmed close below this line often signals momentum loss.
The 1:2 Line (Bottom Support): This acts as the "Structural Floor." If price loses the 1:1 but holds the 1:2, it is considered a healthy correction. A break below the 1:2 typically invalidates the geometric structure of the current cycle.
The 2:1 Line (Top Resistance): This marks the "Impulse Zone." A break above this line suggests parabolic or over-extended behaviour.
Settings
Cycle Stiffness: Controls the sensitivity of the pivot detection. Increase this value (e.g., to 4 or 5) to filter out noise and focus on macro trends.
Anchor Pivot #: Allows you to select which historical cycle bottom to anchor the geometry to (1 = most recent confirmed bottom).
Slope Multiplier: Adjusts the aggressiveness of the fan. Default is 1.0 (Geometric Standard).
Technical Disclosure (Repainting & Lag)
This script utilises a Confirmed Pivot Detection system.
Signal Lag: To ensure reliability, the geometric fans anchor to confirmed pivots. A pivot is only confirmed after Right Length bars have passed. Therefore, the fans will appear on the chart with a slight delay relative to the absolute low.
Repainting: Once a pivot is confirmed and the fans are drawn, the lines for that specific cycle do not repaint history. However, if a new, lower low forms that invalidates the previous structure, the script will dynamically shift to the new anchor point to maintain geometric accuracy.
Disclaimer This script is for educational and experimental purposes only. Geometric analysis is a mapping tool, not a guarantee of future price action. Always use proper risk management. Past performance of geometric levels does not guarantee future results.

💎 Understanding CISD (Change in the State of Delivery) 💎
A CISD occurs when one or multiple candlesticks form in a particular direction, followed immediately by candlesticks that close in the opposite direction, specifically closing below the opening price of the initial candlestick sequence. This phenomenon signals a change in market sentiment and potential price reversal.
Diagrammatic Representation of CISD
Illustrates the transition in price action signaling a shift in delivery state.
💎 Key Features of CISD 💎
Early Price Direction Change Identification:
CISD offers prompt signals of potential reversals before the confirmation of a Market Structure Shift (MSS).
Focus on Candlestick Open and Close Prices:
Analysis relies solely on candlestick open and close levels, disregarding the wicks or shadows to reduce noise.
Versatility Across Financial Markets:
Applicable universally to Forex, stocks, indices, cryptocurrencies, and other trading instruments.
💎 Technical Aspects of CISD 💎
The technical execution of CISD incorporates advanced data analytics to optimize trading decisions in the ICT framework.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
Use higher timeframes (daily, weekly) for confirming overall trend direction.
Employ lower timeframes (15-minute, 1-hour) for precise entry signals.
Combining multiple timeframes enhances signal reliability and trade timing accuracy.
Identification of Order Blocks:
Bullish Order Blocks emerge when bearish candles follow a bullish CISD, acting as strong support zones.
Bearish Order Blocks occur when bullish candles follow a bearish CISD, serving as resistance levels.
Market Timing Considerations:
CISD signals tend to be more reliable during major trading sessions such as London and New York open hours.
Occurrences near economic data releases often reflect the market’s response to fundamental news.
💎 Key Features Pro 💎
The Indicator plots the CISD+ and CISD- Lines on your chart (full customizable)
Difference to the most other CISD tools, ist the:
Pullback Candle Conviction: That means, the candle's body must be at least 50% (customizable) of its total range (high-low) to be valid. This helps to ignore weak or indecisive signals like Dojis.
A state display table is also provided.
Happy Trading!
Doji Rob ScriptThis is a good script for swings. Tradingview wants me to write a novel but I'm only sharing this with friends so there is no need. It' a doji indicator, not a rocket, not a plane, not a jet. It's an indicator you can use for swings. That is all.

Zones of Support and Resistance can feel like drawing boxes on the chart. This indicator to help spot areas of possible reversal. It uses Volume Confirmation and Body-to-Wick Ratio to do this and defined as:
1. Volume Confirmation
High Volume: A candle that absorbs sitting limit orders is often accompanied with higher than average volume. The indicator define this type of candle if it has a volume is greater than 250%/350% of the average volume over the last 10 candles.
2. Body-to-Wick Ratio
Body vs. Wick: A candle with a small body and large wicks can indicate higher probability of reversal. You can define an absorption candle if the body of the candle is less than 50% of the total range (high-low).
These settings are also customizable to your own desired settings and should be used as a visual aid.

New Rate - PREMIUM v2New Rate - PREMIUM v2
New Rate - PREMIUM v2 is an intraday Opening Range Breakout (ORB) strategy built around a strict one-trade-per-day execution model.
The strategy defines a price range using the first N candles of a user-defined session, freezes the High/Low at the close of candle N, and places OCO stop orders exactly at those levels. The first breakout fills, the opposite order is canceled, and no further trades are allowed until the next trading day.
This script is published for educational and research purposes, with documented mechanics and backtest settings to support transparency and reproducibility.
How the strategy works
Session range construction
The user selects a minutes-based timeframe, a session start time, and the number of candles N. During the session window, the strategy tracks the highest High and lowest Low formed by the first N candles. These candles are visually highlighted on the chart.
Range freeze
When candle N closes, the range is locked. Horizontal High/Low lines are drawn and extended forward. An optional 50% midpoint can be displayed for reference.
OCO breakout execution
Immediately after the range is frozen, the strategy places:
A buy stop at the frozen High
A sell stop at the frozen Low
Orders are linked using OCO (One-Cancels-Other) logic. When one side fills, the opposite order is automatically canceled.
Exit management
Two exit frameworks are available:
Tick-based exits: stop-loss and take-profit are fixed distances in ticks from entry.
Risk/Reward exits: optional stop at the opposite side of the range, with TP calculated as RR × risk.
Both modes can display SL/TP boxes projected forward for visual review.
Daily execution lock
After the first filled trade of the day, the strategy blocks any new entries until the next daily reset. This enforces strict discipline and prevents over-trading.
Visual features
Configurable High/Low lines and labels (color, style, width, alignment)
Optional midpoint (50%) line
Session background highlight with adjustable opacity
Optional SL/TP boxes with configurable colors, borders, and projection length

Backtest context and limitations
This strategy uses stop orders that may fill intrabar depending on TradingView’s execution model.
Results vary by symbol, timeframe, session selection, and trading costs.
Past performance does not guarantee future results.
This script is not financial advice.
Originality and usefulness
While opening-range breakouts are a known concept, this strategy’s implementation focuses on:
Exact range-freeze timing: orders are armed precisely at the close of the N-th candle.
True OCO + hard daily lock: one-and-done execution enforced at the engine level.
Dual exit framework: fixed-tick and RR exits analyzed with the same SL/TP visual logic.
Operational safeguards: weekday filters and drawing limits designed for stable long-term backtesting.
Magical Lines (Dot-to-Dot)Automatically Support/Resistance as Magical Lines calculate from Daily ATR Range. This Indicator works with all Stocks/FnO/Index/Commodity.
SMT Divergence [Kodexius]SMT Divergence is a correlation-based divergence detector built around the Smart Money Technique concept: when two normally correlated instruments should be making similar swing progress, but one prints a new extreme while the other fails to confirm it. This “disagreement” can be a valuable contextual signal around liquidity runs, distribution phases, and potential reversal or continuation points.
The script compares the chart symbol (primary) with a user-selected comparison symbol (for example BTC vs ETH, ES vs NQ, EUR/USD vs GBP/USD) and automatically scans both instruments for confirmed swing highs and swing lows using pivot logic. Once swings are established, it checks for classic SMT conditions:
Primary makes a new swing extreme while the comparison symbol forms a non-confirming swing .
To support a wider range of markets, the indicator includes an Inverse Correlation option for pairs that typically move opposite to each other (for example DXY vs EUR/USD). With this enabled, the divergence rules are logically flipped so that the script still detects “non-confirmation” in a way that is consistent with the pair’s relationship.
The indicator is designed to be readable and actionable. It can draw divergence labels directly on the main chart, connect the relevant swing points with lines, show a compact information table with the last signal and settings, and optionally render the comparison symbol as a mini candle chart in the indicator pane for quick visual validation.
🔹 Features
🔸 Two-Symbol SMT Analysis (Primary vs Compare)
Select any comparison symbol to evaluate correlation structure and divergence. The script fetches the comparison OHLC data using the current chart timeframe to keep both series aligned for analysis.
🔸 Inverse Correlation Mode
For inversely correlated pairs, enable “Inverse Correlation” so the script interprets confirmation appropriately (for example, a higher low on the comparison instrument might be expected to correspond to a lower low on the primary, depending on the relationship). This helps avoid false conclusions when the pair naturally moves opposite.
🔸 Pivot-Based Swing with Adjustable Sensitivity
Swings are detected using confirmed pivots (left bars and right bars). This provides cleaner structural swing points compared with raw candle-to-candle comparisons, and it lets you control sensitivity for different market conditions and timeframes. The script also limits stored swing history to keep performance stable.
🔸 Flexible Detection Mode: Time Matched or Independent Swings
You can choose how swings are paired across instruments:
Time Matched searches for a comparison swing that occurred at the same pivot time as the primary swing.
Independent Swings compares each symbol’s own last two swings without requiring an exact time match.
🔸 Range Control and Noise Filtering
To reduce weak or irrelevant signals:
“Max Bars Between Swings” ensures the two swings being compared are close enough in structure to be meaningful.
“Min Price Diff (%)” can require a minimum percentage change between the primary’s last two swing prices to confirm the move is significant.
🔸 Clear Visual Output with Tooltips
When a divergence is detected, the script can print a label (“SMT”) with bullish or bearish styling and a tooltip that includes the symbol pair and the primary swing price for quick context.
🔸 Divergence Lines for Context
Optional lines connect the relevant swing points, making it easier to see the exact structure that triggered the signal. One line can be drawn on the main chart and another in the indicator pane for the comparison series.
🔸 Info Table (At a Glance)
A compact table can display the active symbols, correlation mode, total divergences stored, and the most recent signal type.
🔸 Alerts Included
Built-in alert conditions are provided for bullish SMT, bearish SMT, and any SMT event so you can automate notifications without editing the code.
🔸 Optional Comparison Candle Panel
If enabled, the indicator can plot the comparison symbol as candles in the indicator pane. This is useful for confirming whether the divergence is happening around major levels, consolidations, or impulsive legs on the secondary instrument.
🔹 Calculations
This section summarizes the core logic used by the script.
1. Data Synchronization (Comparison Symbol)
The comparison instrument is requested on the chart’s current timeframe so swing calculations are performed consistently:
=
request.security(compareSymbolInput, timeframe.period, )
This ensures pivots and swing times are derived from the same bar cadence as the primary chart.
2. Swing Detection via Confirmed Pivots
Swings are detected using pivot logic with user-defined left and right bars:
primaryPivotHigh = ta.pivothigh(high, pivotLeftBars, pivotRightBars)
primaryPivotLow = ta.pivotlow(low, pivotLeftBars, pivotRightBars)
Because pivots are confirmed only after the “right bars” have closed, the script stores each swing using an offset so the swing’s bar index and time reflect where the pivot actually occurred, not where it was confirmed.
3. Swing Storage and Retrieval
Both symbols maintain arrays of SwingPoint objects. Each new swing is pushed into the array, and older swings are dropped once the array exceeds the configured maximum. This makes the divergence engine predictable and prevents uncontrolled memory growth.
The script then retrieves the last and previous swing highs and lows (per symbol) to evaluate structure.
4. Matching Logic (Time Matched vs Independent)
When “Time Matched” is selected, the script searches the comparison swing array for a pivot that occurred at the exact same timestamp as the primary swing. When “Independent Swings” is selected, it simply uses the comparison symbol’s last two swings of the same type.
5. Bullish SMT Condition (LL vs HL)
A bullish SMT event is defined as:
Primary forms a lower low (last low < previous low)
Comparison forms a higher low (last low > previous low)
If inverse correlation is enabled, the comparison condition flips to maintain logical confirmation rules
The two primary swings must be within the configured bar distance window
Optional minimum percentage difference must be satisfied
A simple anti duplication rule prevents repeated triggers on the same structure
These checks are implemented directly in the bullish detection block.
6. Bearish SMT Condition (HH vs LH)
A bearish SMT event is defined as:
Primary forms a higher high (last high > previous high)
Comparison forms a lower high (last high < previous high)
Inverse correlation flips the comparison rule
Range checks, minimum difference filtering, and duplicate protection apply similarly
These checks are implemented in the bearish detection block.
7. Percentage Difference Filter
The optional “Min Price Diff (%)” filter measures the relative distance between the last two primary swing prices. This prevents very small structural changes from being treated as valid SMT signals.
priceDiffPerc = math.abs(lastSwing.price - prevSwing.price) / prevSwing.price * 100.0
The divergence condition is only allowed to trigger if this value exceeds the user defined threshold.
priceOk = priceDiffPerc >= minPriceDiff
This filter is especially useful on higher timeframes or during low volatility conditions, where micro structure noise can otherwise produce misleading signals.
8. Visualization and Output
When a divergence is confirmed, the script:
Stores the event in a divergence array (limited by “Max Divergences to Display”)
Draws a directional SMT label with a tooltip (optional)
Draws connecting lines using time based coordinates for clean alignment (optional)
It also updates an information table on the last bar only, and exposes alertconditions for automation workflows.
Midnight Opening RangeThis script uses the SMC/ICT midnight opening range to gain insight into the daily highs and lows.
It plots the opening range quadrants and the 0.5 and 1 standard deviations higher and lower.
These levels are often used as support/resistance at certain times of the day.
To be used in concert with other PD arrays.

## Key Features
### 1. Optimized Core Logic
- **MA Period (Default: 5):** The strategy is tuned with a shorter MA length to reduce lag and capture trends earlier.
- **Crossing Logic:** Signals are generated when the Moving Average of the **Close** crosses the Moving Average of the **Open**.
### 2. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Analysis
- **Alternate Resolution:** Use a higher timeframe (Resolution Multiplier) to filter out noise. By default, it uses $3 \times$ your current chart timeframe to confirm the trend.
- **Non-Repainting:** Includes an optional delay offset to ensure signals are confirmed and do not disappear (repaint) after the bar closes.
### 3. Advanced Risk Management
This script features a hierarchical exit system to protect your capital and lock in profits:
- **Fixed Stop Loss (Initial):** Protects against sudden market reversals immediately after entry.
- **Delayed Trailing Stop Loss (TSL):**
- **Activation Delay:** The TSL only activates after the trade reaches a specific profit threshold (e.g., 1%). This prevents being stopped out too early in the trade's development.
- **Ratchet Trail:** Once activated, the stop loss "ratchets" up/down, never moving backward, ensuring you lock in profits as the trend continues.
- **Take Profit (TP):** A fixed percentage target to exit the trade at a pre-defined profit level.
### 4. Versatility
- **12 MA Types:** Choose from SMA, EMA, DEMA, TEMA, WMA, VWMA, SMMA, HullMA, LSMA, ALMA, SSMA, and TMA.
- **Trade Direction:** Toggle between Long-only, Short-only, or Both.
- **Visuals:** Optional bar coloring to visualize the trend directly on the candlesticks.
---
## User Input Guide
### Core Settings
- **Use Alternate Resolution?:** Enable this to use the MTF logic.
- **Multiplier for Alternate Resolution:** How many charts higher the "filter" timeframe should be.
- **MA Type:** Select your preferred moving average smoothing method.
- **MA Period:** The length of the Open/Close averages.
- **Delay Open/Close MA:** Use `1` or higher to force non-repainting behavior.
### Risk Management Settings
- **Use Trailing Stop Loss?:** Enables the TSL system.
- **Trailing Stop %:** The distance the stop follows behind the price.
- **TSL Activation % (Delay):** The profit % required before the TSL starts moving.
- **Initial Fixed Stop Loss %:** Your hard stop if the trade immediately goes against you.
- **Take Profit %:** Your ultimate profit target for the trade.
---
## How to Trade with This Strategy
1. **Identify the Trend:** Look for the Moving Average lines (Close vs Open) to cross.
2. **Wait for Confirmation:** If using MTF, ensure the higher timeframe also shows a trend change.
3. **Manage the Trade:** Let the TSL work. Once the trade hits the activation threshold, the TSL will take over, protecting your runner.
4. **Position Sizing:** Adjust the `Properties` tab in the script settings to match your desired capital allocation (Default is 10% of equity).
