SMT Divergence [TFO]Smart Money Technique ( SMT ) Divergence is meant to annotate divergences between closely correlated assets. This indicator works by finding local lows and highs for both the current chart symbol and the symbol defined in the settings. It compares both symbols' pivots and evaluates whether they indicate a valid divergence (based on where they're located, whether they make opposing highs/lows, whether a clean connection can be made, etc.).
Take $ES_F and $NQ_F for example ( S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 U.S. index futures ). These two names normally track each other very closely (and in the same direction, versus something like $DXY ), but if $ES_F is steadily rising towards a large institutional level and making higher highs, while $NQ_F is approaching a similarly important level and making lower highs on that same timeframe, this would indicate a divergence between the two assets that could foreshadow a “Smart Money Reversal.”
We can look at diverging highs at resistance as potential reason to look for low timeframe reversal structure to get short, and likewise look at diverging lows near support as potential reason to look for reversal structure to get long. As with most trading concepts, the higher timeframes here are key in this analysis. Divergence on a 4h chart can be much more telling than divergence on a 1m chart; but assuming a higher timeframe bias is already formulated, then SMT could simply act as an additional confluence tool to enter a trade.

Smart Money Add-Ons [TFO]Supplementing my “Smart Money Essentials ” indicator, these add-ons provide some more commonly used “Smart Money Concepts,” including SMT Divergence, and HTF POI, and open price lines for added confluence.

Open price lines can provide intraday levels of interest from important times of day, where the defaults are set to midnight (12:00 AM), 8:30 AM for news releases, and 9:30 AM New York market open (New York local time). The open prices at these times can often act as support and resistance when other confluence factors are present. Higher timeframe points of interest (HTF POI) are also helpful to remain mindful of imbalances and other inefficiencies in which lower timeframe price action may create some reversal structure.
Overlay Mini Plot(s) of Correlated Asset(s)Overlay a small plot of a correlated asset of your choosing. Shrink/expand, Set vertical and horizontal position, plot multiple mini-plots via duplicate indicators with varied settings.
Plots the last X bars of any asset; including the live candle currently painting
Useful for low time frame trading when you want to see correlated asset price movement right alongside the price movement you're watching.
Useful for quick and simple comparisons; when you don't want the clutter of split screen or multi-pane view.
Useful for backtesting.
Price scale agnostic; just plots the shape of the recent price action, with several optional labels: Asset+timeframe | Live Price | Highest price over X bars | Lowest price over X bars.
Works fine with all the assets i've tested it on.
~~User inputs~~
-number of bars to paint.
-horizontal offset: plot to right X bars or to left X bars
-vertical offset: shift up or down, shrink or expand; by using 2 'spacer' inputs
-color/transparancy of candles and price labels.
-width (pixels) of candle bodies.
-choose to display price labels or not
-choose to display asset label or not
~~Tips~~
--Add several of these indicators; changing the vertical 'Shift/Shrink' settings on each to visually separate them.
--In the above chart or EurUsd, there are three indicators =>> three mini-plots overlaid: DXY, EurGbp and GbpUsd. Using the following settings for Space Above:Space Below: DXY- 0.1:4.5 | EurGbp- 1.8:1.8 | GbpUsd- 4.5:0.1
--the more you add, the more you'll have to vertically shrink the plots

Fair Value Gap / FVG - HTF Orderflow bias / trendCalculates Fair Value Gap (FVG) as a counter and plots it below price.
FVG Counter value resets to +ve or -ve once the FVG counter reverses direction.
Use this script to find a bias to trade with.
Best used on HTF (like 1W, 1D), so the bias can be transferred to LTF (like 4H, 1H).
If you end up using this script, please leave a comment below on how you used it. I can try to incorporate those ideas in an update.
Cheers!
Market Structure (Nephew_Sam_)This indicator consists of 3 features:
1. Plots label to the right for current market structure
2. Plots dashed line to show where the next market structure would be
3. Draws arrows above/below historical market structure breaks
This might get a little to noisy in ranging markets or lower timeframes but it does the job.
