Mini SMC Screener I EonMetrics

Mini SMC Screener

Mini SMC Screener watches up to 5 symbols at once and answers a question no single-chart indicator can: WHERE is something happening right now. Instead of flipping through charts, you read one small table: market structure direction and the freshest Fair Value Gap event for every symbol on your list.



HOW IT WORKS

The script scans each symbol on the timeframe you choose (empty = chart timeframe) and reports two independent readings per symbol.

🔵Structure — a strict MSS/BOS engine. Swing points are confirmed pivots (a candle with N higher/lower candles on both sides). A close above the last confirmed swing high in a downtrend is a Market Structure Shift to bullish; a close below the protected swing low in an uptrend shifts structure bearish. Between shifts, breaks of structure in trend direction keep updating the protected level. The column shows the current state: ▲ Bull or ▼ Bear.

🔵FVG — a three-candle imbalance tracker. A Fair Value Gap forms when the first and third candle of a three-candle sequence do not overlap (the low of the newest candle stays above the high of the candle two bars back, or the mirror for bearish). The gap between them is unfilled territory. The engine registers a gap only when its height clears an ATR-based minimum size, keeps it active until price trades through its far edge (a full fill), and reports the freshest of two events:
- New — a qualifying gap just formed (displacement is happening now)
- Retest — price traded back INTO a still-open gap (the return many traders wait for)

Each event ages out of the table after a configurable number of bars, so the column only ever shows fresh information — an FVG event from 200 bars ago is not a setup and is not displayed.

Why the two are combined in one script: they answer the two halves of the same scanning question. Structure tells you the directional context of a symbol; the FVG event tells you that something tradeable is happening there right now. One without the other is either context with no trigger, or a trigger with no context — a scanner needs both on one row to be useful.



KEY FEATURES

- 5 symbol slots, each with its own on/off toggle — defaults cover crypto, forex, gold and an index; replace them with your own watchlist
- Structure column: live Bullish / Bearish read from confirmed swing pivots (non-repainting state machine — the state changes only on a confirmed close through a level)
- FVG column: New / Retest events with age in bars ("now", "3b", …); the cell background lights up when the event happened on the current bar
- ATR size filter — noise-sized gaps never make it into the table
- Freshness windows for FVG events, so stale signals disappear on their own
- Alerts: per-symbol alert() messages (structure flips, new FVG, FVG retest) plus two named conditions — "Structure flip (any symbol)" and "FVG event (any symbol)"
- Scan timeframe input — scan a higher timeframe than your chart; a warning shows if you accidentally scan below the chart timeframe (unreliable by design on TradingView)
- Table position and text size inputs

HOW TO USE

1. Add the indicator to any chart and open Settings → Symbols. Replace the default tickers with the instruments you actually follow.
2. Pick a Scan Timeframe — the chart timeframe or higher. A common setup: chart on M15, scan on M15 or H1.
3. Read rows left to right: Structure gives you the direction bias, FVG tells you whether a fresh imbalance or a retest is in play on that symbol.
4. The combination many traders look for: structure and a fresh FVG event pointing the SAME way — e.g. ▲ Bull structure plus a bullish FVG retest.
5. Set an alert with "Any alert() function call" to get the detailed per-symbol messages without watching the table.

SETTINGS

- Scan: scan timeframe
- Symbols: 5 slots with toggles
- Structure: pivot strength (candles each side to confirm a swing)
- Fair Value Gaps: minimum gap size (× ATR), event freshness (bars)
- Alerts: master toggle
- Table: position, text size, bullish/bearish colors

A note on how the scan works under the hood: each symbol is evaluated in its own sandboxed context via request.security — the full engine state (structure machine, active gap list) is kept separately per symbol, and signals commit on bar close. Disabled slots still consume their data request (a TradingView compile-time requirement); the toggle hides the row.

This tool reports structure state and imbalance events. It does not generate buy/sell signals, targets or stop levels — what you do with a reading is your decision. It is not financial advice; always do your own analysis and manage your own risk.
