QT Previous Micro Cycle Range + SSMT [bilal]

Previous Micro Cycle Range + SMTs - Indicator Description
📊 Overview
This indicator tracks 22.5-minute micro cycles within ICT's Quarterly Theory framework and automatically detects Smart Money Technique (SMT) divergences across correlated indices (NQ, ES, YM). It visualizes previous cycle ranges and identifies high-probability manipulation completions for precise intraday entries.
🎯 What It Does
Micro Cycle Tracking:

Divides each 90-minute session into four 22.5-minute micro quarters
Plots the previous micro cycle's High, Low, Equilibrium (EQ), and Quarter levels
Updates automatically as new micro cycles form
Works on any timeframe (recommended: 1-5 minute charts)

SMT Detection:

Compares current micro cycle vs previous micro cycle across NQ, ES, and YM
Detects Bearish SMT: Divergence at highs (signals distribution down)
Detects Bullish SMT: Divergence at lows (signals distribution up)
Draws visual SMT lines with directional arrows showing correlation/divergence
Optional SMT table showing all three indices' movements

💡 How To Use It
For Scalpers & Day Traders:

Wait for a new micro cycle to begin (lines will refresh every 22.5 minutes)
Watch for SMT formation in the current cycle
Bullish SMT = Buy signal (previous low is confirmed, expect move to previous high)
Bearish SMT = Sell signal (previous high is confirmed, expect move to previous low)

Key Concepts:

Minimum Target: Opposite extreme of previous cycle
SMT Confirmation: One or two indices sweep a level while the other(s) fail to sweep
Best Results: Trade with higher timeframe bias aligned

⚙️ Features
Customizable Display:

Toggle High/Low lines with multiple label styles (Timeframe, Label, %, Fib)
Optional Equilibrium (50%) level
Optional Quarter levels (25% / 75%)
Optional extended range projections (±50% to ±400%)
Adjustable line colors, widths, and label sizes

SMT Options:

Enable/disable SMT detection
Show/hide SMT text labels
Custom colors for bullish/bearish SMTs
Option to delete previous cycle SMTs (keeps chart clean)
Real-time SMT table showing all three indices

Comparison Assets:

Default: ES1! and YM1! (customize to your preference)
Set correlation type for each asset (correlated vs inverse)
Disable individual assets if needed

🔍 Understanding The Visuals
Lines:

Solid lines = Previous cycle High/Low (where price came from)
Dotted lines = EQ and Quarter levels (internal cycle structure)
Green lines = SMT divergence detected (buy/sell signal)

Labels:

▲ = Asset made higher high/low vs previous cycle
▼ = Asset made lower high/low vs previous cycle
🔺 = Inverse correlation (up when others down)
🔻 = Inverse correlation (down when others up)

SMT Logic:

If indices diverge (move opposite directions), SMT is confirmed
Bearish SMT = Highs diverge → Sell
Bullish SMT = Lows diverge → Buy

📈 Best Practices

Use on 1-5 minute charts for optimal micro cycle visualization
Combine with higher timeframe bias (Daily Cycle SSMT, session bias, etc.)
Wait for SMT confirmation before entering trades
Target previous cycle's opposite extreme as minimum profit target
Exit when opposing SMT forms or price reaches target

🛠️ Settings Guide
Essential Settings:

Comparison Symbols: Set to the indices you trade (default: ES1!, YM1!)
Show Cycle SMT: Toggle SMT detection on/off
Delete Previous Cycles SMTs: Keep chart clean by removing old SMTs

Visual Preferences:

Line Color/Width: Customize previous cycle lines
Label Style: Choose between Timeframe (22.5m), Label (descriptive), % (percentage), or Fib (0-1)
Show High/Low: Toggle previous cycle extremes
Show EQ/Quarters/Extended Ranges: Add more reference levels as needed

⚠️ Important Notes

This indicator shows previous cycle ranges, not predictive future levels
SMTs are confirmation signals for manipulation completion
Always use proper risk management and combine with your trading plan
Best results when aligned with higher timeframe directional bias

🎓 Based On ICT Concepts
This indicator implements concepts from Inner Circle Trader (ICT):

Quarterly Theory (fractal time structure)
Micro cycles (22.5-minute quarters)
Sequential SMT (mechanical divergence confirmation)
Smart Money accumulation, manipulation, distribution (AMD)

SMT Logic:

If indices diverge (move opposite directions), SMT is confirmed
Bearish SMT = Highs diverge → High is set, expect distribution down
Bullish SMT = Lows diverge → Low is set, expect distribution up

📈 Best Practices

Must use 30-second chart - indicator timing is calibrated for this timeframe
Combine with higher timeframe bias (Daily Cycle SSMT, 90-min SSMT, session bias)
Wait for SMT confirmation before entering trades (don't front-run)
Target previous cycle's opposite extreme as minimum profit target
Exit when opposing SMT forms or price reaches target

⚠️ Important Notes

30-second chart required - will not work accurately on other timeframes
This indicator shows previous cycle ranges, not predictive future levels
SMTs are confirmation signals for manipulation completion, not entry triggers alone
Always use proper risk management and position sizing
Best results when aligned with higher timeframe directional bias
Monitor all three indices (NQ, ES, YM) for complete SMT picture
Micro cycles are part of a fractal structure - align with 90-min and Daily Cycle SMTs

🎓 Based On ICT Concepts
This indicator implements concepts from Inner Circle Trader (ICT):

Quarterly Theory (fractal time structure - 22.5 min micro quarters)
Micro cycles (four quarters within each 90-minute session)
Sequential SMT (mechanical divergence confirmation across correlated indices)
Smart Money AMD (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution pattern)
New York session timing (based on ICT's 6-hour daily cycles)

🕐 Micro Cycle Structure
Each 90-minute session divides into four 22.5-minute micro quarters:

Micro Q1: 00:00 - 22:30
Micro Q2: 22:30 - 45:00
Micro Q3: 45:00 - 67:30
Micro Q4: 67:30 - 90:00

This pattern repeats across all 16 daily 90-minute sessions (Q1.1 through Q4.4).

Perfect for: Scalpers and day traders using ICT's Quarterly Theory and SMT concepts for precise micro-level entries on 30-second charts.
Chart Requirement: 30-second timeframe only.
Note: This is a study indicator. It does not generate automatic buy/sell signals - you must interpret SMT formations based on your trading strategy and higher timeframe bias.
