Signalgo MASignalgo MA is a TradingView indicator based on moving average (MA) trading by combining multi-timeframe logic, trend strength filtering, and adaptive trade management. Here’s a deep dive into how it works, its features, and why it stands apart from traditional MA indicators.
How Signalgo MA Works
1. Multi-Timeframe Moving Average Analysis
Simultaneous EMA & SMA Tracking: Signalgo MA calculates exponential (EMA) and simple (SMA) moving averages across a wide range of timeframes—from 1 minute to 3 months.
Layered Cross Detection: It detects crossovers and crossunders on each timeframe, allowing for both micro and macro trend detection.
Synchronized Signal Mapping: Instead of acting on a single crossover, the indicator requires agreement across multiple timeframes to trigger signals, filtering out noise and false positives.
2. Trend Strength & Quality Filtering
ADX Trend Filter: Trades are only considered when the Average Directional Index (ADX) confirms a strong trend, ensuring signals are not triggered during choppy or directionless markets.
Volume & Momentum Confirmation: For the strongest signals, the system requires:
A significant volume spike
Price above/below a longer-term EMA (for buys/sells)
RSI momentum confirmation
One-Time Event Detection: Each crossover event is flagged only once per occurrence, preventing repeated signals from the same move.
Inputs
Preset Parameters:
EMA & SMA Lengths: Optimized for both short-term and long-term analysis.
ADX Length & Minimum: Sets the threshold for what is considered a “strong” trend.
Show Labels/Table: Visual toggles for displaying signal and trade management information.
Trade Management:
Show TP/SL Logic: Toggle to display or hide take-profit (TP) and stop-loss (SL) levels.
ATR Length & Multipliers: Fine-tune how SL and TP levels adapt to market volatility.
Enable Trailing Stop: Option to activate dynamic stop movement after TP1.
Entry & Exit Strategy
Entry Logic
Long (Buy) Entry: Triggered when multiple timeframes confirm bullish EMA/SMA crossovers, ADX confirms trend strength, and all volume/momentum filters align.
Short (Sell) Entry: Triggered when multiple timeframes confirm bearish crossunders, with the same strict filtering.
Exit & Trade Management
Stop Loss (SL): Automatically set based on recent volatility (ATR), adapting to current market conditions.
Take Profits (TP1, TP2, TP3): Three profit targets at increasing reward multiples, allowing for flexible trade management.
Trailing Stop: After TP1 is hit, the stop loss moves to breakeven and a trailing stop is activated to lock in further gains.
Event Markers: Each time a TP or SL is hit, a visual label is placed on the chart for full transparency.
Strict Signal Quality Filters: Signals are only generated when volume spikes, momentum, and trend strength all align, dramatically reducing false positives.
Adaptive, Automated Trade Management: Built-in TP/SL and trailing logic mean you get not just signals, but a full trade management suite, rarely found in standard MA indicators.
Event-Driven, Not Static: Each signal is triggered only once per event, eliminating repetitive or redundant entries.
Visual & Alert Integration: Every signal and trade event is visually marked and can trigger TradingView alerts, keeping you informed in real time.
Trading Strategy Application
Versatility: Suitable for scalping, day trading, swing trading, and longer-term positions thanks to its multi-timeframe logic.
Noise Reduction: The layered filtering logic means you only see the highest-probability setups, helping you avoid common MA “fakeouts” and overtrading.
So basically what separates Signalgo MA from traditional MA indicators?
1. Multi-Timeframe Analysis
Traditional MA indicators: Usually measure crossovers or signals within a single timeframe.
Signalgo MA: simultaneously calculates fast/slow EMAs & SMAs for multiple periods. This enables it to create signals based on synchronized or stacked momentum across multiple periods, offering broader trend confirmation and reducing noise from single-timeframe signals.
2. Combinatorial Signal Logic
Traditional: A basic crossover is typically “if fast MA crosses above/below slow MA, signal buy/sell.”
Signalgo MA: Generates signals only when MA crossovers align across several timeframes, plus takes into consideration the presence or absence of conflicting signals in shorter or longer frames. This reduces false positives and increases selectivity.
3. Trend Strength Filtering (ADX Integration)
Traditional: Many MA indicators are “blind” to trend intensity, potentially triggering signals in low volatility or ranging conditions.
Signalgo MA: Employs ADX as a minimum trend filter. Signals will only fire if the trend is sufficiently strong, reducing whipsaws in choppy or sideways markets.
4. Volume & Strict Confirmation Layer
Traditional: Few MA indicators directly consider volume or require confluence with other major indicators.
Signalgo MA: Introduces a “strict signal” filter that requires not only MA crossovers and trend strength, but also (on designated frames):
Significant volume spike,
Price positioned above/below a higher timeframe EMA (trend anchor),
RSI momentum confirmation.
5. Persistent, Multi-Level TP/SL Automated Trade Management
Traditional: Separate scripts or manual management for stop-loss, take-profit, and trailing-stops, rarely fully integrated visually.
Signalgo MA: Auto-plots up to three take-profit levels, initial stop, and a trailing stop (all ATR-based) on the chart. It also re-labels these as they are hit and resets for each new entry, supporting full trade lifecycle visualization directly on the chart.
6. Higher Timeframe SMA Crosses for Long-Term Context
Traditional: Focuses only on the current chart’s timeframe.
Signalgo MA: Incorporates SMA cross logic for weekly, monthly, and quarterly periods, which can contextualize lower timeframe trades within broader cycles, helping filter against counter-trend signals.
7. “Signal Once” Logic to Prevent Over-Trading
Traditional: Will often re-fire the same signal repeatedly as long as the condition is true, possibly resulting in signal clusters and over-trading.
Signalgo MA: Fires each signal only once per condition—prevents duplicate alerts for the same trade context.

💡 Why “Triple Momentum Core”?
Because this indicator doesn’t just detect movement — it breaks it down into its essential phases:
Ignition, validation, and confirmation.
Each layer captures a unique and essential part of price behavior:
The first reaction (Follow Line) ignites the initial spark.
The second reaction (SuperTrend) confirms whether that spark will become a real trend.
The third and final layer (PMax) structurally anchors and follows that trend.
That’s why we call it Triple Momentum Core:
A synchronized 3-engine momentum system working in harmony to capture the lifecycle of a trend — from spark to structure.

[Pandora] Laguerre Ultimate Explorations MulticatorIt's time to begin demonstrations differentiating the difference between known and actual feasibility beyond imagination... Welcome to my algorithmic twilight zone .
INTRODUCTION:
Hot off my press, I present this Laguerre multicator employing PSv6.0, originally formulated by John Ehlers for TASC - July 2025 Traders Tips. Basically I transcended Ehlers' notions of transversal filtration with an overhaul of his Laguerre design with my "what if" Pandora notions included. Striving beyond John Ehlers' original intended design. This action packed indicator is a radically revamped version of his original filter using novel techniques. My aim was to explore whether providing even more enhanced responsiveness and lesser lag is possible and how. Presented here is my mind warping results to witness.
EHLERS' LAGUERRE EXPLAINED:
First and foremost, the concept of Ehlers' Laguerre-izing method deserves a comprehensive deep dive. Ehlers' Laguerre filter design, as it functions originally, begins with his Ultimate Smoother (US) followed by a gang of four LERP (jargon for Linear intERPolation) filters. Following a myriad of cascading LERPs is a window-like FIR filter tapped into the LERP delay values to provide extra smoothness via the output.
On a side note, damping factor controlled LERP filters resemble EMAs indeed, but aren't exactly "periodic" filters that would have a period/length parameter and their subsequent calculations. I won't go into fine-grained relationship details, but EMA and LERP are indeed related in approach, being cousins of similar pedigree.
EXAMINING LAGUERRE:
I focused firstly on US initialization obstacles at Pine's bar_index==0 with nz() in abundance. The next primary notion of intrigue I mostly wondered about was, why are there four LERP elements instead of fewer or more. Why not three or why not two LERPs, etc... 1-4-6-4-1, I remember seeing those coefficients before in high pass filters.
Gathering my thoughts from that highpass knowledge base, I devised other tapped configuration modes to inspect their behavior out of curiosity. Eureka! There is actually more to Laguerre than Ehlers' mind provided, now that I had formulated additional modes. Each mode exhibits it's own lag/smoothness characteristics better than the quad LERPed version. I narrowed it down to a total of 5 modes for exploration. Mode 0 is just the raw US by itself.
ANALYZING FILTER BEHAVIORS:
Which option might be possibly superior, and how may I determine that? Fortunately, I have a custom-built analyzer allowing me to thoroughly examine transient responses across multiple periodicities simultaneously, providing remarkable visual insights.
While Ehlers has meagerly touched upon presenting general frequency responses in his books, I have excelled far beyond that. This robust filter analysis capability enables me to observe finer aspects hidden to others, ultimately leading to the deprecation of numerous existing filters. Not only this, but inventing entirely new species of filtration whether lowpass, highpass, or bandpass is already possible with a thorough comprehensive evaluation.
Revealing what's quirky with each filter and having the ability to discover what filters may be lacking in performance, is one of it's implications. I'm just going to explain this: For example US has a little too much overshoot to my liking, along with nonconformant cutoff frequency compliance with the period parameter. Perhaps Ehlers should inspect US coefficients a bit closer... I hope stating this is not received in an ill manner, as it's not my intention here.
What this technically eludes to is that UltimateSmoother can be further improved, analogous to my Laguerre alterations described above. I will also state Laguerre can indeed be reformulated to an even greater extent concerning group delay, from what I have already discussed. Another exciting time though... More investigative research is warranted.
LAGUERRE CONCLUSIONS:
After analyzing Laguerre's frequency compliance, transient responses, amplitudes, lag, symmetry across periodicities, noise rejection, and smoothness... I favor mode 3 for a multitude of reasons over the mode 4 configuration, but mostly superb smoothing with less lag, AND I also appreciated mode 1 & 2 for it's lower lag performance options.
Each mode and lag (phase shift) damping value has it's own unique characteristics at extremes, yet they demonstrate additional finesse in it's new hybrid form without adding too much more complexity. This multicator has a bunch of Laguerre filters in the overlay chart over many periodicities so you can easily witness it's differing periodic symmetries on an input signal while adjusting lag and mode.
LAGUERRE OSCILLATOR:
The oscillator is integrated into the laguerreMulti() function for the intention of posterity only. I performed no evaluation on it, only providing the code in Pine. That wasn't part of my intended exploration adventure, as I'm more TREND oriented for the time being, focusing my efforts there.
Market analysis has two primary aspects in my observations, one cyclic while the other is trending dynamics... There's endless oscillators, but my expectations for trend analysis seems a little lesser explored in my opinion, hence my laborious trend endeavors. Ehlers provided both indicator facets this time around, and I hope you find the filtration aspect more intriguing after absorption of this reading.
FUNCTION MODULES EXPLAINED:
The Ultimate Smoother is an advanced IIR lowpass smoothing filter intended to minimize noise in time series data with minimal group delay, similar to a traditional biquad filter. This calculation helps to create a smoother version of the original signal without the distortions of short-term fluctuations and with minimal lag, adjustable by period.
The Modified Laguerre Lowpass Filter (MLLF) enhances the functionality of US by introducing a Laguerre mode parameter along side the lag parameter to refine control over the amount of additional smoothing/lag applied to the signal. By tethering US with this LERPed lag mechanism, MLLF achieves an effective balance between responsiveness and smoothness, allowing for customizable lag adjustments via multiple inputs. This filter ends with selecting from a choice of weighted averages derived from a gang of up to four cascading LERP calculations, resulting with smoother representations of the data.
The Laguerre Oscillator is a momentum-like indicator derived from the output of US and a singular LERPed lowpass filter. It calculates the difference between the US data and Laguerre filter data, normalizing it by the root mean square (RMS). This quasi-normalization technique helps to assess the intensity of the momentum on any timeframe within an expected bound range centered around 0.0. When the Laguerre Oscillator is positive, it suggests that the smoothed data is trending upward, while a negative value indicates a downward trend. Adjustability is controlled with period, lag, Laguerre mode, and RMS period.
signBTC Day&Session BoxesThis indicator visually segments the trading week on your chart, drawing each day from 17:00 to 17:00 New York time (corresponding to the typical forex daily rollover). For enhanced session structure, every day is further divided into three major trading sessions:
Asian Session
London Session
New York Session
Additionally, the indicator automatically marks the opening time of each new day at 17:00 (New York time) directly on the chart, helping traders quickly identify daily cycles and session transitions.
Customization Features
Adjustable Session Times: Users can modify the start and end times for each session (Asian, London, New York) to match personal or institutional trading hours.
Flexible Day Boundaries: The time marking the start and end of each day (default: 17:00 NY) can also be adjusted according to preference or asset specifics.
Opening Time Marker: The feature for drawing the daily opening time can be enabled or disabled in the settings.
This tool is ideal for traders needing clear visual cues for session boundaries and daily market resets, especially those operating across multiple time zones or managing strategies dependent on session-specific behavior. All settings are conveniently accessible and fully customizable within the indicator’s parameter panel.
The Visualized Trader (Fractal Timeframe)The **The Visualized Trader (Fractal Timeframe)** indicator for TradingView is a tool designed to help traders identify strong bullish or bearish trends by analyzing multiple technical indicators across two timeframes: the current chart timeframe and a user-selected higher timeframe. It visually displays trend alignment through arrows on the chart and a condition table in the top-right corner, making it easy to see when conditions align for potential trade opportunities.
### Key Features
1. **Multi-Indicator Analysis**: Combines five technical conditions to confirm trend direction:
- **Trend**: Based on the slope of the 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA). Upward slope indicates bullish, downward indicates bearish.
- **Stochastic (Stoch)**: Uses Stochastic Oscillator (5, 3, 2) to measure momentum. Rising values suggest bullish momentum, falling values suggest bearish.
- **Momentum (Mom)**: Derived from the MACD fast line (5, 20, 30). Rising MACD line indicates bullish momentum, falling indicates bearish.
- **Dad**: Uses the MACD signal line. Rising signal line is bullish, falling is bearish.
- **Price Change (PC)**: Compares the current close to the previous close. Higher close is bullish, lower is bearish.
2. **Dual Timeframe Comparison**:
- Calculates the same five conditions on both the current timeframe and a user-selected higher timeframe (e.g., daily).
- Helps traders see if the trend on the higher timeframe aligns with the current chart, providing context for stronger trade decisions.
3. **Visual Signals**:
- **Arrows on Chart**:
- **Current Timeframe**: Blue upward arrows below bars for bullish alignment, red downward arrows above bars for bearish alignment.
- **Higher Timeframe**: Green upward triangles below bars for bullish alignment, orange downward triangles above bars for bearish alignment.
- Arrows appear only when all five conditions align (all bullish or all bearish), indicating strong trend potential.
4. **Condition Table**:
- Displays a table in the top-right corner with two rows:
- **Top Row**: Current timeframe conditions (Trend, Stoch, Mom, Dad, PC).
- **Bottom Row**: Higher timeframe conditions (labeled with "HTF").
- Each cell is color-coded: green for bullish, red for bearish.
- The table can be toggled on/off via input settings.
5. **User Input**:
- **Show Condition Boxes**: Toggle the table display (default: on).
- **Comparison Timeframe**: Choose the higher timeframe (e.g., "D" for daily, default setting).
### How It Works
- The indicator evaluates the five conditions on both timeframes.
- When all conditions are bullish (or bearish) on a given timeframe, it plots an arrow/triangle to signal a strong trend.
- The condition table provides a quick visual summary, allowing traders to compare the current and higher timeframe trends at a glance.
### Use Case
- **Purpose**: Helps traders confirm strong trend entries by ensuring multiple indicators align across two timeframes.
- **Example**: If you're trading on a 1-hour chart and see blue arrows with all green cells in the current timeframe row, plus green cells in the higher timeframe (e.g., daily) row, it suggests a strong bullish trend supported by both timeframes.
- **Benefit**: Reduces noise by focusing on aligned signals, helping traders avoid weak or conflicting setups.
### Settings
- Access the indicator settings in TradingView to:
- Enable/disable the condition table.
- Select a higher timeframe (e.g., 4H, D, W) for comparison.
### Notes
- Best used in trending markets; may produce fewer signals in choppy conditions.
- Combine with other analysis (e.g., support/resistance) for better decision-making.
- The higher timeframe signals (triangles) provide context, so prioritize trades where both timeframes align.
This indicator simplifies complex trend analysis into clear visual cues, making it ideal for traders seeking confirmation of strong momentum moves.
Magnet Zones: Trap Detection & Flow Map [@darshakssc]This script detects potential bull and bear trap candles—price actions that may appear strong but are likely to reverse—based on:
🔺 Wick structure
📊 Volume spike behavior
💡 RSI confirmation logic
⏳ Signal cooldown filter to reduce false positives
The indicator then plots:
🟥 Red “🚨 Trap” labels above candles showing possible bull traps
🟩 Green “🧲 Trap” labels below candles showing possible bear traps
➖ Horizontal zone lines to mark these trap levels as “magnet zones,” which may act as future support or resistance
🧠 How It Works:
1. Volume Spike Detection
2. The script first checks for unusually high volume (1.5× the average volume over the last 20 candles).
3. Trap Candle Structure
4. A trap is suspected when there is a long wick opposite the direction of the candle body, signaling a failed breakout or price manipulation.
5. RSI Confirmation
6. Bull Traps: RSI must be above 60
7. Bear Traps: RSI must be below 40
✅ This helps validate whether the price was overbought or oversold.
✅ Cooldown Mechanism
✅ After a trap is detected, it waits for 10 bars before allowing another signal—this reduces noise and overfitting.
✅ How to Use It:
1. Apply on any timeframe, especially effective for intraday trading (e.g. 5m, 15m, 1h).
2. Use the trap signals as early warnings to avoid fake breakouts.
3. Combine with your own strategy or trend-following system for confirmation.
4. The trap lines (magnet zones) can be used as dynamic support/resistance levels for future pullbacks or reversals.

HSI1! First 30m Candle Strategy (15m Chart)## HSI1! First 30-Minute Candle Breakout Strategy (15m Chart) — Description
### Overview
This strategy is designed for trading **Hang Seng Index (HSI) Futures** on a 15-minute chart. It uses the price range established during the first 30 minutes of the Hong Kong main session (09:15–09:44:59) to define key breakout levels for a systematic trade entry each day.
### How the Strategy Works
#### 1. Reference Candle Period
- **Aggregation Window:** The strategy monitors the first two 15-minute bars of the session (09:15:00–09:44:59 HKT).
- **Range Capture:** It records the highest and lowest prices (the "reference high/low") during this window.
#### 2. Trade Setup
- After the 09:45 bar completes, the reference range is locked in.
- Throughout the rest of the trading day (within session hours), the strategy looks for breakouts beyond the reference range.
#### 3. Entry Rules
- **Long Entry (Buy):**
- Triggered if price rises to or above the reference high.
- Only entered if the user's settings permit "Buy Only" or "Both".
- **Short Entry (Sell):**
- Triggered if price falls to or below the reference low.
- Only entered if the user's settings permit "Sell Only" or "Both".
- **Single trade per day:**
- Once any trade executes, no additional trades are opened until the next session.
#### 4. Exit Rules
- **Take Profit (TP):**
- Target profit is set to a distance equal to the initial range added above the long entry (or subtracted below the short entry).
- Example: For a 100-point range, a long trade targets entry + 100 points.
- **Stop Loss (SL):**
- Longs are stopped out if price falls back to the session's reference low; shorts are stopped out if price rallies to the reference high.
#### 5. Session Control
- Active only within the regular day session (09:15–12:00 and 13:00–16:00 HKT).
- Trade tracking resets each new trading day.
#### 6. Trade Direction Manual Setting
- A user input allows restriction to "Buy Only", "Sell Only" or "Both" directions, providing discretion over daily bias.
### Example Workflow
| Step | Action |
|---------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 09:15–09:44 | Aggregate first two 15m candles; record daily high/low |
| After 09:45 | Wait for a breakout (price crossing either the high or the low) |
| Long trade triggered | Enter at the reference high, target is "high + range", SL is at the low |
| Short trade triggered | Enter at the reference low, target is "low - range", SL at the high |
| Trade management | No more trades for the day, regardless of further breakouts |
| End of session (if open) | Trades may be closed per further logic or left to strategy to handle |
### Key Features and Benefits
- **Discipline:** Only one trade per day, minimizing overtrading.
- **Clarity:** Transparent entry/exit rules; no discretionary execution.
- **Flexibility:** User can bias system to buy-only, sell-only, or allow both, depending on trend or personal view.
- **Simple Risk Control:** Pre-defined stop loss and profit target for every trade.
- **Works best in:** Trending, breakout-prone markets with a history of impulsive moves early in the session.
This strategy is ideal for systematic traders looking to capture the Hang Seng's early session momentum, with robust rule-based management and minimal intervention.

cd_sweep&cisd_CxOverview:
When the price is at a significant zone/level on a higher time frame (HTF), and it sweeps (breaks through and then closes back below/above) the high or low of the previous HTF candle, it is common to look for a Change in State of Delivery (CISD) on a lower time frame (LTF) to enter a trade.
This model can be summarized as:
HTF Sweep → LTF CISD (Optional: SMT / Divergences)
________________________________________
Working Principle & Details:
1. The indicator monitors price action on the selected HTF and tracks any sweep (violation) of the previous HTF candle's high or low. Simultaneously, it identifies CISD levels on the LTF. If SMT is enabled, it will appear as a label on the chart.
When both HTF sweep and LTF CISD conditions are met, the indicator marks the chart at the open of the next candle and triggers an alert if set.
CISD levels are tracked and updated whenever a new HTF high/low is formed.
2. The indicator monitors the formation of entry models on up to six selected pairs, displaying results in two separate tables:
o HTF Sweep Query Table: Monitors live HTF candles and reports pairs that meet the sweep condition.
o CISD Table: Displays the pairs where a valid entry model has formed. A "🔥" symbol indicates the condition has occurred.
3. Bias Visualization:
Based on the selected HTF, a visual band is shown at the bottom of the chart using the chosen bullish/bearish colors.
Bias is determined by:
o Candle closing above/below the previous one suggesting continuation.
o A failed close after a sweep implying potential reversal.
4. HTF Candles:
Displays HTF candles based on the user-defined time frame.
5. Optional SMT (Smart Money Technique):
Must be enabled in the menu and requires the correlated pair to be entered correctly for accurate results.
Displayed only as a visual confirmation, not a requirement for model formation.
If the currently open symbol sweeps the previous candle while the correlated symbol does not (or vice versa), an "SMT" label appears on the chart.
6. Color & Table Positioning:
Controlled via the settings menu.
________________________________________
Warnings:
• The indicator only marks CISDs that form at HTF high/low zones.
• Entering every time the model forms does not guarantee profitability.
• Waiting for the model to appear at significant HTF levels/zones increases the likelihood of success.
• HTF and LTF selections should follow commonly accepted combinations or user-tested time frames.
• If you want to trigger alerts only for symbols entered in the indicator, ensure the "Use indicator alerts" option is enabled.
• To set alerts for the TradingView watchlist instead, disable the "Use indicator alerts" option.

Overview
This indicator dynamically marks highs and lows of the premarket (4:00am-9:30amEST) and opening range. It displays Fair Value Gaps, 9 and 21 period Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) and the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP). To really help beginners, it marks suggested entry points on the chart with green or red triangles, when a reasonable trend appears.
Features
Automatically draws blue lines for Premarket High and Low values
Dynamically marks the opening Range region
Visual entry signals for long and short opportunities
Primarily used for stocks/funds , but works with forex and crypto
Quick configuration settings to tailor details for your experience level
Mobile friendly mode
Supports alerts
How To Use
Open your chart, and select a 1 or 2 minute timeframe.
Watch for green triangles and red triangles, hinting at entries for long or short positions. Pay particular attention to the price action as it approaches the bounds of the opening range and the premarket levels. I suggest also using a MACD indicator for confirmation of the trend.
For scalping 0dte Options, switch frequently between the 1 ,2 and 5 minute or higher timeframes. Do this so you will not miss an entry opportunity or be unaware of the overall trend.
As a beginner, until you have refined your strategy and develop risk management, take profits as low as 10%. A small profit can quickly become a much larger loss. With 0dte options, time will devour your profits even when the price doesn’t budge.
What makes this indicator so beginner friendly?
Charts with too many lines and colors are are a nightmare for beginners! And empty charts do not tell the whole story. Simple checkboxes in the configuration settings let you turn on and off features to match your comfort level. As you become more familiar you might try turning off the suggested entries to see if you would have selected the same or better ones yourself. Just one example of how you will learn and verify your knowledge. You will quickly spot Opening Range Breakouts and more.
Why are the triangle pointers not simply above or below the bars?
As a beginner, I like to review charts to see how much the price changed, then estimate how much a contract would move based on its delta. A mouthful, I know. But what price does an arrow pointing up below a bar reflect? Would I have entered at the open or close, low or high? This indicator helps by putting the marker close to the price when indicated. It can even display the actual price on the bar. This is helpful for you to make fast calculations without a measuring tool.
I am an experienced trader. Can this help me make winning trades?
Sure. It can also help you make losing ones! Profit is not guaranteed with any indicator or strategy. This indicator is designed to assist you as you learn and while you trade. You won't see the words BUY or SELL. This is not a signal bot! It is merely a tool to assist you. You can learn a lot by spending time observing price movement using this indicator without ever making a single trade.

Multi-Timeframe SMTSummery
The Multi-Timeframe SMT indicator is designed to identify and visualize Higher Timeframe (HTF) data on a Lower Timeframe (LTF) chart, allowing traders to see the broader market context without changing their current chart's resolution. It accurately draws pivots and SMT divergences from higher timeframes on the corresponding candles of your current lower timeframe chart.
Its core features include:
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Configure and monitor pivots on up to four independent timeframes, from intraday to monthly.
Customizable Pivot Detection: Define the strength of pivots by adjusting the number of bars to the left and right.
SMT Divergence: Automatically identifies bullish and bearish SMT divergences by comparing the price action of the main chart symbol with a chosen correlated asset.
Early SMT Detection: A unique feature that monitors a lower "detection timeframe" to provide early warnings of potential SMT setups before they're confirmed on the main timeframe. Note that this early detection is only shown on timeframes equal to or lower than the "Detection timeframe" you have set.
Visual Cues & Alerts: Clear on-chart labels, lines, and fully customizable alerts notify you of confirmed pivots and SMT divergences, ensuring you don't miss key opportunities.
Important Nuance Regarding Pivot Label Display
Due to a self-imposed limit within this script's drawing management logic, the indicator might quickly reach its drawing capacity if you enable pivot crosses for multiple timeframes simultaneously. When this internal drawing limit is exceeded, the script is designed to automatically remove the oldest drawings to make space for new ones.
Therefore, to ensure optimal performance and visibility of the most recent and relevant pivots, it's highly recommended to only enable the "Show Pivot Crosses" option for one timeframe at a time. If you wish to view pivots for a different timeframe, simply disable the pivot crosses for the currently active timeframe and then enable them for your desired one. This approach prevents the rapid cycling and disappearance of pivot labels, providing a clearer and more stable visual experience.
In-Depth Explanation of the Logic
This script is built on two primary concepts: pivot points and Smart Money Technique (SMT) divergence. It systematically collects historical data on multiple timeframes, identifies pivots, and then compares them between two assets to find divergences.
Pivot Point Identification
A pivot is a turning point in the market. A pivot high is a candle that has a higher high than the candles to its immediate left and right. Conversely, a pivot low is a candle with a lower low than its neighbors.
How it Works in the Script:
The script tracks the highest high and lowest low for each period of the selected timeframe (e.g., for each 4-hour candle). When a new high-timeframe candle closes, it stores that high/low value and its bar index in an array. The checkForPivot() function then checks if a recently stored high or low qualifies as a pivot.
Key Inputs:
Left Strength (leftBars1): The number of candles to the left that must have a lower high (for a pivot high) or higher low (for a pivot low).
Right Strength (rightBars1): The number of candles to the right that must meet the same criteria.
For example, with Left Strength and Right Strength both set to 3, a pivot high is only confirmed when its high is greater than the highs of the 3 previous high-timeframe candles and the 3 subsequent high-timeframe candles. Increasing these values will identify more significant, longer-term pivots.
Smart Money Technique (SMT) Divergence
SMT Divergence is a concept popularized by The Inner Circle Trader (ICT). It occurs when two closely correlated assets fail to move in sync. For instance, if Asset A makes a higher high but Asset B fails to do so and instead makes a lower high, this creates a bearish SMT divergence. It suggests that the "smart money" may not be supporting the move in Asset A, signaling a potential reversal.
Bearish SMT: Main asset makes a higher high, while the correlated asset makes a lower high. This is a potential sell signal.
Bullish SMT: Main asset makes a lower low, while the correlated asset makes a higher low. This is a potential buy signal.
How it Works in the Script:
Data Request: For each timeframe, the script uses the request.security() function to fetch the high and low data for both the main chart symbol (syminfo.tickerid) and the chosen Comparison Asset.
Pivot Comparison: When a new pivot is confirmed on the main asset, the script checks if a corresponding pivot also formed on the comparison asset at the same time.
Divergence Check: It then compares the direction of the pivots. For a bearish SMT, it checks if the main asset's new pivot high is higher than its previous pivot high, while the comparison asset's new pivot high is lower than its previous one. The logic is reversed for bullish SMT.
Visualization: If a divergence is found, the script draws a red (bearish) or green (bullish) line connecting the two pivots on your chart and places an "SMT" label.
Early SMT Detection
This is a proactive feature designed to give you a heads-up. Waiting for a 4-hour or daily pivot to form can take a long time. The early detection system looks for SMT divergences on a much smaller, user-defined Detection timeframe (e.g., 15-minute).
How it Works in the Script:
Awaiting Setup: After a primary pivot (Pivot A) is formed on the main timeframe (e.g., a Daily pivot high), the script begins monitoring.
Intraday Monitoring: It then watches the Detection timeframe (e.g., 15-minute) for smaller intraday pivots.
Potential Divergence: It looks for an intraday pivot that forms a divergence against the primary Pivot A.
Watchline & Alert: When this "potential" divergence occurs, the script draws a dashed white line and triggers a "Potential SMT" alert. This isn't a confirmed SMT on the main timeframe yet, but it's a powerful early warning that one may be forming.
Drawing & Object Management
To keep the chart clean and prevent performance issues, the script manages its drawings (lines and labels) efficiently. It stores them in arrays and uses a drawing limit to automatically delete the oldest drawings as new ones are created, ensuring your TradingView remains responsive.
How to Use the Indicator
Configuration
Enable Timeframes: Use the checkboxes (Enable Timeframe 1, Enable Timeframe 2, etc.) to activate the timeframes you want to monitor. It's often best to start with one or two to keep the chart clean.
Select Timeframes: Choose the higher timeframes you want to analyze (e.g., 240 for 4-hour, D for Daily, W for Weekly).
Set Pivot Strength: The default of 3 for Left/Right strength is a good starting point. Increase it to find more significant market structure points or decrease it for more frequent, shorter-term pivots.
Configure SMT:
Check Enable SMT for the timeframes where you want to detect divergence.
Enter a Comparison Asset . This is crucial. Ensure the assets are correlated.
To use the early warning system, check Enable early SMT detection and select an appropriate Detection timeframe (e.g., 15 or 60 minutes for a Daily analysis).
[Top] Trend Lines with Strength DetectionThe Auto Trend Lines with Strength Detection indicator automatically detects and draws dynamic support and resistance lines based on pivot highs and lows. These trend lines adapt to market structure in real time, increasing in opacity as they accumulate additional touches. Numbers are also printed above each line indicating the number of times that line has been tested and held.
Unlike most trend line indicators, this one does not consider a brief wick to have broken the line. Nor does it break the line if the current candle is testing it. The candle must fully close on the oppose side of a trend line for this indicator to remove that line.
On the chart above you can see that the current candle is in the process of breaking the two resistance lines. If the candle closes above the lines, they will be broken and removed from the chart. If it's not able to close above the resistance lines, they will remain intact and accumulate another touch point.
Key features include:
Pivot-based detection: Lines are drawn between valid swing points while filtering out intermediate price violations.
Strength visualization: Each time price comes into proximity with a trend line, the “touch count” is incremented and both the line and its label darken accordingly.
Break handling: Lines are automatically removed once the body of a candle closes beyond them, reducing clutter from broken levels.
Customization options: Users can adjust pivot sensitivity, maximum lines to retain, line styles, widths, and colors independently for support and resistance.
Pivot History: You can decide how far back you want the script to look for valid trends.
⸻
Potential Uses:
Identifying strong support/resistance zones: As trend lines accumulate touches, they become visually stronger, helping traders spot high-confluence levels.
Breakout and breakdown filtering: Detects and removes invalidated trend lines only after a full candle body breach, reducing false breakouts caused by wicks.
Trend structure analysis: Helps visualize emerging or weakening trends by observing how support/resistance lines evolve and how price interacts with them.
Strategy development: Can be used as a component in breakout, mean-reversion, or range-based trading systems.
