SMC Structure and Imbalance Map draws the main Smart Money Concepts elements on your chart from fixed, visible rules, so you can read structure quickly and check exactly why each mark is there.
What it shows
- Swing highs and lows labelled HH, HL, LH and LL.
- Break of Structure (BOS, dashed line) and Change of Character (CHoCH, solid line) when a candle closes beyond the last swing.
- Order blocks: for each break, the opposite-colour candle at the origin of the move that broke structure.
- Fair value gaps: three-candle imbalances larger than a chosen fraction of ATR.
- Mitigation tracking: zones stop extending once price trades into them (touch, 50% or full fill for gaps; touch or close-through for order blocks). Mitigated zones can be hidden or shown in grey.
- Optional analysis timeframe: run the logic on H1 or H4 while viewing a lower chart.
- A buffer with the structure direction (1 up, -1 down) for the Data Window or an Expert Advisor.
- Alerts for CHoCH and BOS: pop-up, sound and push.
How it calculates
A swing is confirmed only after the chosen number of candles has closed on each side of it (default 5). It is then drawn at its own candle and does not move. Breaks, order blocks and gaps are evaluated on closed candles only, so marks on closed candles do not change. The analysis covers the most recent bars you choose (default 1500); marks at the very start of that window can differ slightly when the window moves forward, because earlier context is no longer included. In higher-timeframe mode the trend buffer uses only completed higher-timeframe candles.
Forex and gold
All size filters are relative to ATR, not fixed pips, so the same settings work on 5-digit forex pairs, JPY pairs and XAUUSD without changes. On gold, where candles are larger and gaps are common, you may prefer a minimum gap size of 0.15 to 0.25 ATR to show fewer, larger gaps.
