Price Imbalance as Consecutive Levels of AveragesOverview
The Price Imbalance as Consecutive Levels of Averages indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to identify and visualize price imbalances in financial markets. Unlike traditional moving average (MA) indicators that update continuously with each new price bar, this indicator employs moving averages calculated over consecutive, non-overlapping historical windows. This unique approach leverages comparative historical data to provide deeper insights into trend strength and potential reversals, offering traders a more nuanced understanding of market dynamics and reducing the likelihood of false signals or fakeouts.
Key Features
Consecutive Rolling Moving Averages: Utilizes three distinct simple moving averages (SMAs) calculated over consecutive, non-overlapping windows to capture different historical segments of price data.
Dynamic Color-Coded Visualization: SMA lines change color and style based on the relationship between the averages, highlighting both extreme and normal market conditions.
Median and Secondary Median Lines: Provides additional layers of price distribution insight during normal trend conditions through the plotting of primary and secondary median lines.
Fakeout Prevention: Filters out short-term volatility and sharp price movements by requiring consistent historical alignment of multiple moving averages.
Customizable Parameters: Offers flexibility to adjust SMA window lengths and line extensions to align with various trading strategies and timeframes.
Real-Time Updates with Historical Context: Continuously recalculates and updates SMA lines based on comparative historical windows, ensuring that the indicator reflects both current and past market conditions.
Inputs & Settings
Rolling Window Lengths:
Window 1 Length (Most Recent) Bars: Number of bars used to calculate the most recent SMA. (Default: 5, Range: 2–300)
Window 2 Length (Preceding) Bars: Number of bars for the second SMA, shifted by Window 1. (Default: 8, Range: 2–300)
Window 3 Length (Third Rolling) Bars: Number of bars for the third SMA, shifted by the combined lengths of Window 1 and Window 2. (Default: 13, Range: 2–300)
Horizontal Line Extension:
Horizontal Line Extension (Bars): Determines how far each SMA line extends horizontally on the chart. (Default: 10 bars, Range: 1–100)
Functionality and Theory
1. Calculating Consecutive Simple Moving Averages (SMAs):
The indicator calculates three SMAs, each based on distinct and consecutive historical windows of price data. This approach contrasts with traditional MAs that continuously update with each new price bar, offering a static view of past trends rather than an ongoing one.
Mean1 (SMA1): Calculated over the most recent Window 1 Length bars. Represents the short-term trend.
Mean1=∑i=1N1CloseiN1
Mean1=N1∑i=1N1Closei
Where N1N1 is the length of Window 1.
Mean2 (SMA2): Calculated over the preceding Window 2 Length bars, shifted back by Window 1 Length bars. Represents the medium-term trend.
\text{Mean2} = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^{N_2} \text{Close}_{i + N_1}}}{N_2}
Where N2N2 is the length of Window 2.
Mean3 (SMA3): Calculated over the third rolling Window 3 Length bars, shifted back by the combined lengths of Window 1 and Window 2 bars. Represents the long-term trend.
\text{Mean3} = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^{N_3} \text{Close}_{i + N_1 + N_2}}}{N_3}
Where N3N3 is the length of Window 3.
2. Determining Market Conditions:
The relationship between the three SMAs categorizes the market condition into either extreme or normal states, enabling traders to quickly assess trend strength and potential reversals.
Extreme Bullish:
Mean3Mean2>Mean1
Mean3>Mean2>Mean1
Indicates a strong and sustained downward trend. SMA lines are colored purple and styled as dashed lines.
Normal Bullish:
Mean1>Mean2andnot in extreme bullish condition
Mean1>Mean2andnot in extreme bullish condition
Indicates a standard upward trend. SMA lines are colored green and styled as solid lines.
Normal Bearish:
Mean1Mean2>Mean1
Mean3>Mean2>Mean1
Normal Bullish:
Mean1>Mean2andnot in Extreme Bullish
Mean1>Mean2andnot in Extreme Bullish
Normal Bearish:
Mean1 Mean2 > Mean3
Visualization: All three SMAs are displayed as gold dashed lines.
Median Lines: Not displayed to maintain chart clarity.
Interpretation: Indicates a strong and sustained upward trend. Traders may consider entering long positions, confident in the trend's strength without the distraction of additional lines.
2. Normal Bullish Condition:
SMAs Alignment: Mean1 > Mean2 (not in extreme condition)
Visualization: Mean1 and Mean2 are green solid lines; Mean3 is gray.
Median Lines: A thin blue dotted median line is plotted between Mean1 and Mean2, with two additional thin blue dashed lines as secondary medians.
Interpretation: Confirms an upward trend while providing deeper insights into price distribution. Traders can use the median and secondary median lines to identify optimal entry points and manage risk more effectively.
3. Extreme Bearish Condition:
SMAs Alignment: Mean3 > Mean2 > Mean1
Visualization: All three SMAs are displayed as purple dashed lines.
Median Lines: Not displayed to maintain chart clarity.
Interpretation: Indicates a strong and sustained downward trend. Traders may consider entering short positions, confident in the trend's strength without the distraction of additional lines.
4. Normal Bearish Condition:
SMAs Alignment: Mean1 < Mean2 (not in extreme condition)
Visualization: Mean1 and Mean2 are red solid lines; Mean3 is gray.
Median Lines: A thin blue dotted median line is plotted between Mean1 and Mean2, with two additional thin blue dashed lines as secondary medians.
Interpretation: Confirms a downward trend while providing deeper insights into price distribution. Traders can use the median and secondary median lines to identify optimal entry points and manage risk more effectively.

CandelaCharts - Swing Failure Pattern (SFP)# SWING FAILURE PATTERN
📝 Overview
The Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) indicator is designed to identify and highlight Swing Failure Patterns on a user’s chart. This pattern typically emerges when significant market participants generate liquidity by driving price action to key levels. An SFP occurs when the price temporarily breaks above a resistance level or below a support level, only to quickly reverse and return within the previous range. These movements are often associated with stop-loss hunting or liquidity grabs, providing traders with potential opportunities to anticipate reversals or key market turning points.
A Bullish SFP occurs when the price dips below a key support level, triggering stop-loss orders, but then swiftly reverses upward, signaling a potential upward trend or reversal.
A Bearish SFP happens when the price spikes above a key resistance level, triggering stop-losses of short positions, but then quickly reverses downward, indicating a potential bearish trend or reversal.
The indicator is a powerful tool for traders, helping to identify liquidity grabs and potential reversal points in real-time. Marking bullish and bearish Swing Failure Patterns on the chart, it provides clear visual cues for spotting market traps set by major players, enabling more informed trading decisions and improved risk management.

📒 Usage
The best approach is to combine a few complementary indicators to gain a clearer market perspective. This doesn’t mean relying on the Golden Cross, RSI divergences, SFPs, and funding rates simultaneously, but rather focusing on one or two that align well in a given scenario.
The example above demonstrates the confluence of a Bearish Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) with an RSI divergence. This combination strengthens the signal, as the Bearish SFP indicates a potential reversal after a liquidity grab, while the RSI divergence confirms weakening momentum at the key level. Together, these indicators provide a more robust setup for identifying potential market reversals with greater confidence.
🚨 Alerts
This script provides alert options for all signals.
Bearish Signal
A bearish signal is triggered when a Bearish SFP is formed.
Bullish Signal
A bullish signal is triggered when a Bullish SFP is formed.

Volatility IndicatorThe volatility indicator presented here is based on multiple volatility indices that reflect the market’s expectation of future price fluctuations across different asset classes, including equities, commodities, and currencies. These indices serve as valuable tools for traders and analysts seeking to anticipate potential market movements, as volatility is a key factor influencing asset prices and market dynamics (Bollerslev, 1986).
Volatility, defined as the magnitude of price changes, is often regarded as a measure of market uncertainty or risk. Financial markets exhibit periods of heightened volatility that may precede significant price movements, whether upward or downward (Christoffersen, 1998). The indicator presented in this script tracks several key volatility indices, including the VIX (S&P 500), GVZ (Gold), OVX (Crude Oil), and others, to help identify periods of increased uncertainty that could signal potential market turning points.
Volatility Indices and Their Relevance
Volatility indices like the VIX are considered “fear gauges” as they reflect the market’s expectation of future volatility derived from the pricing of options. A rising VIX typically signals increasing investor uncertainty and fear, which often precedes market corrections or significant price movements. In contrast, a falling VIX may suggest complacency or confidence in continued market stability (Whaley, 2000).
The other volatility indices incorporated in the indicator script, such as the GVZ (Gold Volatility Index) and OVX (Oil Volatility Index), capture the market’s perception of volatility in specific asset classes. For instance, GVZ reflects market expectations for volatility in the gold market, which can be influenced by factors such as geopolitical instability, inflation expectations, and changes in investor sentiment toward safe-haven assets. Similarly, OVX tracks the implied volatility of crude oil options, which is a crucial factor for predicting price movements in energy markets, often driven by geopolitical events, OPEC decisions, and supply-demand imbalances (Pindyck, 2004).
Using the Indicator to Identify Market Movements
The volatility indicator alerts traders when specific volatility indices exceed a defined threshold, which may signal a change in market sentiment or an upcoming price movement. These thresholds, set by the user, are typically based on historical levels of volatility that have preceded significant market changes. When a volatility index exceeds this threshold, it suggests that market participants expect greater uncertainty, which often correlates with increased price volatility and the possibility of a trend reversal.
For example, if the VIX exceeds a pre-determined level (e.g., 30), it could indicate that investors are anticipating heightened volatility in the equity markets, potentially signaling a downturn or correction in the broader market. On the other hand, if the OVX rises significantly, it could point to an upcoming sharp movement in crude oil prices, driven by changing market expectations about supply, demand, or geopolitical risks (Geman, 2005).
Practical Application
To effectively use this volatility indicator in market analysis, traders should monitor the alert signals generated when any of the volatility indices surpass their thresholds. This can be used to identify periods of market uncertainty or potential market turning points across different sectors, including equities, commodities, and currencies. The indicator can help traders prepare for increased price movements, adjust their risk management strategies, or even take advantage of anticipated price swings through options trading or volatility-based strategies (Black & Scholes, 1973).
Traders may also use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to validate the potential for significant market movements. For example, if the VIX exceeds its threshold and the market is simultaneously approaching a critical technical support or resistance level, the trader might consider entering a position that capitalizes on the anticipated price breakout or reversal.
Conclusion
This volatility indicator is a robust tool for identifying market conditions that are conducive to significant price movements. By tracking the behavior of key volatility indices, traders can gain insights into the market’s expectations of future price fluctuations, enabling them to make more informed decisions regarding market entries and exits. Understanding and monitoring volatility can be particularly valuable during times of heightened uncertainty, as changes in volatility often precede substantial shifts in market direction (French et al., 1987).

Moving Average Crossover Strategy with Take Profit and Stop LossThe Moving Average Crossover Strategy is a popular trading technique that utilizes two moving averages (MAs) of different periods to identify potential buy and sell signals. By incorporating take profit and stop loss levels, traders can effectively manage their risk while maximizing potential returns. Here’s a detailed explanation of how this strategy works:
Overview of the Moving Average Crossover Strategy
Moving Averages:
A short-term moving average (e.g., 50-day MA) reacts more quickly to price changes, while a long-term moving average (e.g., 200-day MA) smooths out price fluctuations over a longer period.
The strategy generates trading signals based on the crossover of these two averages:
Buy Signal: When the short-term MA crosses above the long-term MA (often referred to as a "Golden Cross").
Sell Signal: When the short-term MA crosses below the long-term MA (known as a "Death Cross").
Implementing Take Profit and Stop Loss
1. Setting Take Profit Levels
Definition: A take profit order automatically closes a trade when it reaches a specified profit level.
Strategy:
Determine a realistic profit target based on historical price action, support and resistance levels, or a fixed risk-reward ratio (e.g., 2:1).
For instance, if you enter a buy position at $100, you might set a take profit at $110 if you anticipate that level will act as resistance.
2. Setting Stop Loss Levels
Definition: A stop loss order limits potential losses by closing a trade when the price reaches a specified level.
Strategy:
Place the stop loss just below the most recent swing low for buy orders or above the recent swing high for sell orders.
Alternatively, you can use a percentage-based method (e.g., 2-3% below the entry point) to define your stop loss.
For example, if you enter a buy position at $100 with a stop loss set at $95, your maximum loss would be limited to $5 per share.
Example of Using Moving Average Crossover with Take Profit and Stop Loss
Entry Signal:
You observe that the 50-day MA crosses above the 200-day MA at $100. You enter a buy position.
Setting Take Profit and Stop Loss:
You analyze historical price levels and set your take profit at $110.
You place your stop loss at $95 based on recent swing lows.
Trade Management:
If the price rises to $110, your take profit order is executed, securing your profit.
If the price falls to $95, your stop loss is triggered, limiting your losses.

Hidden SMT Divergence ICT 01 [TradingFinder] HSMT SMC Technique🔵 Introduction
Hidden SMT Divergence, an advanced concept within the Smart Money Technique (SMT), identifies discrepancies between correlated assets by focusing on their closing prices.
Unlike the standard SMT Divergence, which uses high and low prices for analysis, Hidden SMT Divergence uncovers subtle signals by examining divergences based on the assets' closing values.
These divergences often highlight potential reversals or trend continuations, making this technique a valuable tool for traders aiming to anticipate market movements.
This approach applies across various markets and asset classes, including :
Commodities : CAPITALCOM:GOLD vs. CAPITALCOM:SILVER or BLACKBULL:BRENT vs. BLACKBULL:WTI .
Indices : NASDAQ:NDX vs. TVC:SPX vs. FX:US30 .
FOREX : FX:EURUSD vs. OANDA:GBPUSD vs. TVC:DXY (US Dollar Index).
Cryptocurrencies : BITSTAMP:BTCUSD vs. COINBASE:ETHUSD vs. KUCOIN:SOLUSDT vs. CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL3 .
Volatility Measures : FOREXCOM:XAUUSD vs. TVC:VIX (Volatility Index).
By identifying divergences within these asset groups, traders can gain actionable insights into potential market reversals or shifts in trend direction. Hidden SMT Divergence is particularly effective for pinpointing subtle market signals that traditional methods may overlook.
Bullish Hidden SMT Divergence : This divergence emerges when one asset forms a higher low, while the correlated asset creates a lower low in terms of their closing prices. It often signals weakening downward momentum and a potential reversal to the upside.
Bearish Hidden SMT Divergence : This occurs when one asset establishes a higher high, while the correlated asset forms a lower high based on their closing prices. It typically reflects declining upward momentum and a probable shift to the downside.
🔵 How to Use
The Hidden SMT Divergence indicator provides traders with a systematic approach to identify market reversals or trend continuations through divergences in closing prices between two correlated assets.
🟣 Bullish Hidden SMT Divergence
Bullish Hidden SMT Divergence occurs when the closing price of the primary asset forms a higher low, while the correlated asset creates a lower low. This pattern indicates weakening downward momentum and signals a potential reversal to the upside.
After identifying the divergence, confirm it using additional tools like support levels, volume trends, or indicators such as RSI and MACD. Enter a buy position as the price shows signs of reversal near support zones, ensuring proper risk management by placing a stop-loss below the support level.
Bearish Hidden SMT Divergence
Bearish Hidden SMT Divergence is identified when the closing price of the primary asset forms a higher high, while the correlated asset creates a lower high. This divergence suggests a weakening uptrend and a likely reversal to the downside.
Validate the signal by examining resistance levels, declining volume, or complementary indicators. Consider entering a sell position as the price starts declining from resistance levels, and set a stop-loss above the resistance zone to limit potential losses.
🔵 Setting
Second Symbol : Select the secondary asset to compare with the primary asset. By default, "XAUUSD" (Gold) is used, but it can be customized to any stock, cryptocurrency, or currency pair.
Divergence Fractal Periods : Defines the number of past candles considered for identifying divergences. The default value is 2, but traders can adjust it for greater precision.
Bullish Divergence Line : Displays a dashed line connecting the points of bullish divergence.
Bearish Divergence Line : Shows a similar line for bearish divergence points.
Bullish Divergence Label : Marks areas of bullish divergence with a "+SMT" label.
Bearish Divergence Label : Highlights bearish divergences with a "-SMT" label.
Chart Type : Choose between Line or Candle charts for enhanced visualization.
🔵 Conclusion
Hidden SMT Divergence offers traders a refined method for identifying market reversals by analyzing closing price discrepancies between correlated assets. Its ability to uncover subtle divergences makes it an essential tool for traders who aim to stay ahead of market trends.
By integrating this technique with other technical analysis tools and sound risk management, traders can enhance their decision-making process and capitalize on market opportunities with greater confidence.
Hidden SMT Divergence’s focus on closing prices ensures more precise signals, helping traders refine their strategies across various markets, including Forex, commodities, indices, and cryptocurrencies.
Its open-source nature allows for customization and verification, providing transparency and flexibility to suit diverse trading needs. Hidden SMT Divergence stands as a powerful addition to the arsenal of any trader seeking to unlock hidden opportunities in dynamic financial markets.

Enigma End Game Indicator
Enigma End Game Indicator Description
The Enigma End Game indicator is a powerful tool designed to enhance the way traders approach support and resistance, combining mainstream technical analysis with a unique, dynamic perspective. At its core, this indicator enables traders to adapt to market conditions in real time by applying a blend of classic and modern interpretations of support and resistance levels.
In traditional support and resistance analysis, we recognize the significant price points where the market has historically reversed or consolidated. However, the *Enigma End Game* indicator takes this one step further by analyzing each individual candle's high as a potential resistance level and each low as support. This allows the trader to stay more agile, as the market constantly updates and evolves. The dynamic nature of this method acknowledges that price movements are fractal in nature, meaning that these levels are not static but adjust in response to price action on multiple timeframes.
### How It Works:
When using the *Enigma End Game* indicator, it doesn't simply plot buy and sell signals automatically. Instead, the indicator highlights key levels based on the interaction between price and historical price action. Here's how it operates:
1. **Buy Logic:**
The indicator identifies bullish signals based on the *Enigma* logic, but it does not trigger an immediate buy. Instead, it plots arrows above or below the candles, indicating the key price levels where price action has shifted. Traders then focus on these areas, particularly looking for buy opportunities *below* these levels during key market sessions (such as London or New York) while aligning with both mainstream support and resistance and *Enigma* levels.
2. **Sell Logic:**
Similarly, when the indicator identifies a sell signal, it plots an arrow above the candle where price action has reversed. This does not immediately suggest selling. Traders wait for a price retracement back to the previously breached low (for a sell order) or high (for a buy order), observing price action closely on lower timeframes (such as the 1-minute chart) to refine entry points. The entry is triggered when price starts to show signs of reversing at these levels, further validated by mainstream and *Enigma* support/resistance.
### Practical Example – XAU/USD (Gold):
For instance, in the settings of the *Enigma End Game* indicator, if we select the 5-minute (5MN) timeframe as the key level, the indicator will only plot the first 3 arrows following the *Enigma* logic. The arrows will appear above or below the candle that was breached, indicating a potential trend reversal. In this scenario, the first arrow marks the point where price broke a significant support or resistance level. Afterward, the trader watches for a subsequent candle to close below (in the case of a sell) the previous candle’s low, confirming a bearish bias.
Now, the trader does not rush into a sell order. Instead, they wait for the price to pull back towards the previously breached low. At this point, the trader can use a lower timeframe (like the 1-minute chart) to identify both mainstream support and resistance levels and *Enigma* levels above the main 5-minute key level. These additional levels provide a clearer understanding of where price might reverse and give the trader a stronger edge in refining their entry point.
The trader then sets a sell order *above* the price level of the previous low, but only once signs show that price is retracing and ready to fall again. The price point where this retracement occurs, confirmed by both mainstream and *Enigma* levels, becomes the entry signal for the trade.
### Summary:
The *Enigma End Game* indicator combines time-tested principles of support and resistance with a more modern, adaptive view, empowering traders to read the market with greater precision. It guides you to wait for optimal entries, based on dynamic support and resistance levels that change with each price movement. By combining signals on higher timeframes with refined entries on lower timeframes, traders gain a unique advantage in navigating both obvious and hidden levels of support and resistance, ultimately improving their ability to time trades with higher probability of success.
This indicator allows for a more calculated, strategic approach to trading—highlighting the right moments to enter the market while providing the flexibility to adjust to different market conditions.
The *ENIGMA Signals with Retests* indicator is a versatile trading tool that combines key market sessions with dynamic support and resistance levels. It uses logic to identify potential buy and sell signals based on the behavior of recent price swings (highs and lows) and offers flexibility with the number of arrows plotted per session. The user can customize settings like arrow frequency, line styles, and session times, allowing for personalized trading strategies.
The indicator detects buy and sell signals by checking if the price breaks the previous swing high (for buy signals) or swing low (for sell signals). It then stores these levels and draws horizontal lines on the chart, representing critical price levels where traders can expect potential price reactions.
A key feature of this indicator is its ability to limit the number of arrows per session, ensuring a cleaner chart and reducing signal clutter. Horizontal lines are drawn at the identified buy or sell levels, with the option to display labels like "BUY - AT OR BELOW" and "SELL - AT OR ABOVE" to further clarify entry points.
The indicator also incorporates session filtering, allowing traders to focus on specific market sessions (Asia, London, and New York) for more relevant signals, and it ensures that no more than a user-defined number of arrows are plotted within a session.
Correlation Coefficient [Giang]### **Introduction to the "Correlation Coefficient" Indicator**
#### **Idea behind the Indicator**
The "Correlation Coefficient" indicator was developed to analyze the linear relationship between Bitcoin (**BTCUSD**) and other important economic indices or financial assets, such as:
- **SPX** (S&P 500 Index): Represents the U.S. stock market.
- **DXY** (Dollar Index): Reflects the strength of the USD against major currencies.
- **SPY** (ETF representing the S&P 500): A popular trading instrument.
- **GOLD** (Gold price): A traditional safe-haven asset.
The correlation between these assets can help traders understand how Bitcoin reacts to market movements of traditional financial instruments, providing opportunities for more effective trading decisions.
Additionally, the indicator allows users to **customize asset symbols for comparison**, not limited to the default indices (SPX, DXY, SPY, GOLD). This flexibility enables traders to tailor their analysis to specific goals and portfolios.
---
#### **Significance and Use of Correlation in Trading**
**Correlation** is a measure of the linear relationship between two data series. In the context of this indicator:
- **The correlation coefficient ranges from -1 to 1**:
- **1**: Perfect positive relationship (both increase or decrease together).
- **0**: No linear relationship.
- **-1**: Perfect negative relationship (one increases while the other decreases).
- **Use in trading**:
- Identify **strong relationships or unusual divergences** between Bitcoin and other assets.
- Help determine **market sentiment**: For example, if Bitcoin has a negative correlation with DXY, traders might expect Bitcoin to rise when the USD weakens.
- Provide a foundation for hedging strategies or investments based on inter-asset relationships.
---
#### **Components of the Indicator**
The "Correlation Coefficient" indicator consists of the following key components:
1. **Main Data (BTCUSD)**:
- The closing price of Bitcoin is used as the central asset for calculations.
2. **Comparison Data**:
- Users can select different asset symbols for comparison. By default, the indicator supports:
- **SPX**: Stock market index.
- **DXY**: Dollar Index.
- **SPY**: Popular ETF.
- **GOLD**: Gold price.
3. **Correlation Coefficients**:
- Calculated between BTC and each comparison index, based on a Weighted Moving Average (WMA) over a user-defined period.
4. **Graphical Representation**:
- Displays individual correlation coefficients with each comparison index, making it easier for traders to track and analyze.
---
#### **How to Analyze and Use the Indicator**
**1. Identify Key Correlations:**
- Observe the correlation lines between BTC and the indices to determine positive or negative relationships.
- Example:
- If the **Correlation Coefficient (BTC-DXY)** sharply declines to -1, this indicates that when USD strengthens, Bitcoin tends to weaken.
**2. Analyze the Strength of Correlations:**
- **Strong Correlations**: If the coefficient is close to 1 or -1, the relationship between the two assets is very clear.
- **Weak Correlations**: If the coefficient is near 0, Bitcoin may be influenced by other factors outside the compared index.
**3. Develop Trading Strategies:**
- Use correlations to predict Bitcoin's price movements:
- If BTC has an inverse relationship with **DXY**, traders might consider selling BTC when the USD strengthens.
- If BTC and **SPX** are strongly correlated, traders can monitor the stock market to predict Bitcoin's trend.
**4. Evaluate Changes Over Time:**
- Use different timeframes (daily, weekly) to track the correlation's fluctuations.
- Look for unusual signals, such as a breakdown or shift from positive to negative relationships.
---
#### **Conclusion**
The "Correlation Coefficient" indicator is a powerful tool that helps traders analyze the relationship between Bitcoin and major financial indices. The ability to customize asset symbols for comparison makes the indicator flexible and suitable for various trading strategies. When used correctly, this indicator not only provides insights into market sentiment but also supports the development of intelligent trading strategies and optimized profits.
SMT Divergence ICT 01 [TradingFinder] Smart Money Technique🔵 Introduction
SMT Divergence (short for Smart Money Technique Divergence) is a trading technique in the ICT Concepts methodology that focuses on identifying divergences between two positively correlated assets in financial markets.
These divergences occur when two assets that should move in the same direction move in opposite directions. Identifying these divergences can help traders spot potential reversal points and trend changes.
Bullish and Bearish divergences are clearly visible when an asset forms a new high or low, and the correlated asset fails to do so. This technique is applicable in markets like Forex, stocks, and cryptocurrencies, and can be used as a valid signal for deciding when to enter or exit trades.
Bullish SMT Divergence : This type of divergence occurs when one asset forms a higher low while the correlated asset forms a lower low. This divergence is typically a sign of weakness in the downtrend and can act as a signal for a trend reversal to the upside.
Bearish SMT Divergence : This type of divergence occurs when one asset forms a higher high while the correlated asset forms a lower high. This divergence usually indicates weakness in the uptrend and can act as a signal for a trend reversal to the downside.
🔵 How to Use
SMT Divergence is an analytical technique that identifies divergences between two correlated assets in financial markets.
This technique is used when two assets that should move in the same direction move in opposite directions.
Identifying these divergences can help you pinpoint reversal points and trend changes in the market.
🟣 Bullish SMT Divergence
This divergence occurs when one asset forms a higher low while the correlated asset forms a lower low. This divergence indicates weakness in the downtrend and can signal a potential price reversal to the upside.
In this case, when the correlated asset is forming a lower low, and the main asset is moving lower but the correlated asset fails to continue the downward trend, there is a high probability of a trend reversal to the upside.
🟣 Bearish SMT Divergence
Bearish divergence occurs when one asset forms a higher high while the correlated asset forms a lower high. This type of divergence indicates weakness in the uptrend and can signal a potential trend reversal to the downside.
When the correlated asset fails to make a new high, this divergence may be a sign of a trend reversal to the downside.
🟣 Confirming Signals with Correlation
To improve the accuracy of the signals, use assets with strong correlation. Forex pairs like OANDA:EURUSD and OANDA:GBPUSD , or cryptocurrencies like COINBASE:BTCUSD and COINBASE:ETHUSD , or commodities such as gold ( FX:XAUUSD ) and silver ( FX:XAGUSD ) typically have significant correlation. Identifying divergences between these assets can provide a strong signal for a trend change.
🔵 Settings
Second Symbol : This setting allows you to select another asset for comparison with the primary asset. By default, "XAUUSD" (Gold) is set as the second symbol, but you can change it to any currency pair, stock, or cryptocurrency. For example, you can choose currency pairs like EUR/USD or GBP/USD to identify divergences between these two assets.
Divergence Fractal Periods : This parameter defines the number of past candles to consider when identifying divergences. The default value is 2, but you can change it to suit your preferences. This setting allows you to detect divergences more accurately by selecting a greater number of candles.
Bullish Divergence Line : Displays a line showing bullish divergence from the lows.
Bearish Divergence Line : Displays a line showing bearish divergence from the highs.
Bullish Divergence Label : Displays the "+SMT" label for bullish divergences.
Bearish Divergence Label : Displays the "-SMT" label for bearish divergences.
🔵 Conclusion
SMT Divergence is an effective tool for identifying trend changes and reversal points in financial markets based on identifying divergences between two correlated assets. This technique helps traders receive more accurate signals for market entry and exit by analyzing bullish and bearish divergences.
Identifying these divergences can provide opportunities to capitalize on trend changes in Forex, stocks, and cryptocurrency markets. Using SMT Divergence along with risk management and confirming signals with other technical analysis tools can improve the accuracy of trading decisions and reduce risks from sudden market changes.

SMB MagicSMB Magic
Overview: SMB Magic is a powerful technical strategy designed to capture breakout opportunities based on price movements, volume spikes, and trend-following logic. This strategy works exclusively on the XAU/USD symbol and is optimized for the 15-minute time frame. By incorporating multiple factors, this strategy identifies high-probability trades with a focus on risk management.
Key Features:
Breakout Confirmation:
This strategy looks for price breakouts above the previous high or below the previous low, with a significant volume increase. A breakout is considered valid when it is supported by strong volume, confirming the strength of the price move.
Price Movement Filter:
The strategy ensures that only significant price movements are considered for trades, helping to avoid low-volatility noise. This filter targets larger price swings to maximize potential profits.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA):
A long-term trend filter is applied to ensure that buy trades occur only when the price is above the moving average, and sell trades only when the price is below it.
Fibonacci Levels:
Custom Fibonacci retracement levels are drawn based on recent price action. These levels act as dynamic support and resistance zones and help determine the exit points for trades.
Take Profit/Stop Loss:
The strategy incorporates predefined take profit and stop loss levels, designed to manage risk effectively. These levels are automatically applied to trades and are adjusted based on the market's volatility.
Volume Confirmation:
A volume multiplier confirms the strength of the breakout. A trade is only considered when the volume exceeds a certain threshold, ensuring that the breakout is supported by sufficient market participation.
How It Works:

Exit Strategy:
Each position (long or short) has predefined take-profit and stop-loss levels, which are designed to protect capital and lock in profits at key points in the market.
Fibonacci Levels:
Fibonacci levels are drawn to identify potential areas of support or resistance, which can be used to guide exits and stop-loss placements.
