Multi Timeframe Trendline Sniper Gold

Draws the levels. Tracks the outcomes. Promises nothing.

Multi Timeframe Trendline Sniper Gold (MTS) is a liquidity and structure mapping tool for MetaTrader 4. If you trade gold by hand, MTS removes the chart work: no more flipping between M5, M15, M30, H1 and H4 to mark trendlines and liquidity before every session. The map is drawn on your M1 chart, labeled, and tracked, so you can focus on the decision and not on the marking.

MTS draws levels and context. It places no orders and does not touch your account.

CHART REQUIREMENTS - READ FIRST

- M1 chart only. MTS maps on M1; on any other timeframe it shows a reminder instead of the map.

- One chart instance maps one setup timeframe. The HTF input selects it: M5, M15 (default), M30, H1 or H4.

- Full coverage uses several charts of the same symbol, one per HTF input (for example M15 / M30 / H1 / H4, or M5 / M15 / M30 / H1). Each chart shows its own timeframe's setups.

WHAT YOU GET

- The map. Higher-timeframe trendlines, confirmed structure marks (HH / HL / LH / LL), ZigZag cycle legs, an M1 trigger layer, and a labeled target rail (TP1 to TP3 plus the stop) built from confirmed swing pivots and prior day / week / month highs and lows. Levels price has already swept are skipped.

- Frozen setups. Signals are evaluated on closed M1 bars. When a marker appears, its rail is fixed at that moment; later bars do not move it, so a setup reads the same hours later as it did at the trigger.

- Outcome tracking. After every marker, MTS follows what actually happened: target hits, break-even moves, stop locks, and what price did after a stop. Labels say HIT and pSL (post-stop) in plain text, and every rung names its source timeframe.

- Timeframe bias map. Run more than one instance and each chart shows one colored row per timeframe (BULL green, BEAR red, WAITING orange), marks the chart you are on, and summarizes the picture in one line, for example "BIAS BULL (3 of 4) | against: H1 | alignment pending". It is context only, not a trade instruction. A timeframe shows n/a when its chart is not running.

- Alerts. Popup, push and email alerts for TP1, TP2, TP3, stop and reversal events. Off by default.

- Data-window buffers. Six buffers (buy marker, sell marker, TP1, TP2, TP3, stop) for your own scripts.

READING THE TARGET RAIL

Every rung reads: what happened, at which reference, on which timeframe.

- TP1 / TP2 / TP3 HIT - target touched

- STOP HIT - initial stop touched

- BE - stop moved to break-even after TP1

- LK-TP1 - stop locked at TP1 after TP2

- DFLIP-BE - stop moved to break-even after an adverse daily-change flip

- pSL (full labels: POST-SL) - the event happened after the stop was hit; the level stays on the rail as tracked liquidity

- (p) (full labels: pending) - not touched yet

- CNCL (full labels: CANCEL) - setup invalidated before the target was reached

- Final tag M5 / M15 / M30 / H1 / H4 / D1 / W1 / MN1 - source timeframe of the level. D1 / W1 / MN1 rungs are prior-day / prior-week / prior-month highs and lows.

Example: "TP1 HIT M30 -> STOP HIT BE M1 -> TP3 H4 pSL (p)" means TP1 was reached, the setup stopped out at break-even, and TP3, mapped from an H4 reference, stays on the chart as untouched liquidity.

A note on the labels: "M1 BUY" / "M1 SELL" marks an M1 close beyond the frozen trendline plus an ATR buffer, on whichever setup timeframe the chart is mapping (see the header at the top left). Structure labels such as "M15 LH BEAR" describe structure; they are not signals.

QUICK START

1. Attach MTS to an M1 chart. On any other timeframe it shows a reminder instead of the map.

2. Set the HTF input: this chart maps that setup timeframe.

3. Optionally open more M1 charts of the same symbol with other HTF values. Each is an independent setup engine; the bias map reads them all.

WHO MTS IS FOR

- Discretionary XAUUSD traders who mark their own levels and want that work automated on M1

- Traders who want post-signal tracking (HIT / pSL) drawn on the chart instead of remembered

- Traders who prefer a tool that states its limits

WHO MTS IS NOT FOR

- Anyone looking for an auto-trader: MTS sends no orders

- Anyone looking for a signal service: the marker is a breakout marker on a level map, not an entry instruction. The value is the map and the tracking

- Anyone who will not trade from an M1 chart

HONEST LIMITS

MTS is a mapping and tracking tool, not a signal system. In our own historical testing on XAUUSD, the breakout markers did not show a reliable statistical edge once trading costs were included, and results changed from one period to another. We do not claim profits, win rates or any trading result. Costs, spread and execution differ by broker. Past behavior is not indicative of future results. This tool is for information only and is not investment advice. You are responsible for your own trading decisions.

KEY SETTINGS (defaults)

- HTF = M15 - setup timeframe mapped by this chart

- DrawTargets = true - target rail and stop

- CompactLabels = true - short rail tags without prices; set false for full words and prices

- TargetRailX = 240 - rail offset from the right chart edge, in pixels

- DrawAgreementMap = true - timeframe bias map

- DeclutterPriceLabels = true - stack overlapping price and rail labels

- DrawHTFLines / DrawLTFLines = true / true - higher- and lower-timeframe trendlines

- DrawSignalArrows / MaxSignalArrows = true / 3 - trigger arrows and how many recent ones stay on the chart

- DrawSignalLabels = true - trigger labels

- DrawHTFStructureMarks = true - HH / HL / LH / LL marks on the assigned timeframe

- DrawTrendlinePrices = true, InpShowLastPivotPrice = true - price tags at the right edge

- InpZZDraw = true - ZigZag cycle legs (green up, red down)

- DrawDashboard / DrawLegend = false / false - optional status panel and tag legend

- EnableAlerts (+ popup / push / email) = false - alert delivery, with per-event switches

- DebugLevel = 0 - 1 or 2 writes extra detail to the Experts journal; set it back to 0 for normal use

REQUIREMENTS

- MetaTrader 4. MTS runs on M1 charts only.

- Needs M1 history for the symbol. The first load rebuilds up to 5,000 M1 bars of context; later updates are incremental.

- No DLLs and no web requests. Charts share their state through terminal global variables, not files.

- The free demo runs in the Strategy Tester (visual mode) only, where the bias map shows the tested chart's own state. Using MTS on a live chart requires purchase.

FAQ

Does it work on all brokers? MTS reads only the chart it is attached to: no DLLs, no account checks, no web requests. Prior day / week / month levels follow your broker's own day and week boundaries, and the map starts from whatever M1 history your broker provides.

Does it support symbol prefixes and suffixes? Yes. MTS runs on whatever symbol the chart is open on (XAUUSD, XAUUSD.m, GOLD and so on). There is no symbol input.

Does it work on other symbols? It will attach to any symbol, but it is built and tested for XAUUSD only. Other symbols are untested.

Why is there an "M1 SELL" marker when the bias line says bullish? The marker is an M1 breakout on this chart's setup timeframe. The bias line summarizes the states of the other timeframes. They can disagree, and the map exists so you can see both. Neither is an instruction.

I can't see the stop or the targets on my chart. MT4 auto-scale fits the candles, not the drawn levels, so the rail can sit off-screen. Scroll the price axis, or set a fixed scale in the chart properties (Common tab).

The first attach takes a long time, or the map looks patchy. This usually means the terminal's M1 history has gaps, often after history was imported from a file. Close the terminal, back up and delete the symbol's .hst files in the broker's history folder, then restart so the terminal downloads clean history.

Does the bias map work in the Strategy Tester? The tester runs one chart at a time, so the map shows only the tested chart's own state and says so on the chart.
