HADES Time Cycle SMT

Overview
The **HADES Time Cycle SMT** indicator is a sophisticated and enhanced version of the original HADES SMT framework, designed for advanced traders seeking to identify high-probability Smart Money Time (SMT) divergences across multiple symbols and timeframes. This private script integrates time cycle analysis, multi-symbol SMT detection, and confluence signals to provide actionable insights for trading major indices like the S&P 500 (ES), Nasdaq (NQ), and Dow Jones (YM). With a customizable dashboard, session anchors, and advanced filtering, this tool is tailored for precision and clarity in fast-moving markets.

### Key Features

1. **Multi-Symbol SMT Divergence Detection**
- Compares price action across up to three user-defined symbols (default: ES1!, NQ1!, YM1!) to detect bullish and bearish SMT divergences.
- Enhanced divergence strength calculation ensures only significant divergences are highlighted, with a customizable minimum strength filter (0–10%).
- Supports up to 50 visible SMT lines with customizable styles (solid, dashed, dotted) and widths for clear visualization.

2. **Time Cycle Analysis**
- Automatically detects cycle periods (5min, 10min, 30min, 90min, 4H, Daily, Weekly) based on the chart’s timeframe or allows manual cycle selection.
- Tracks cycle highs and lows to provide context for SMT signals, with optional visualization of cycle boxes and previous cycle high/low lines.

3. **Confluence Detection**
- Highlights when multiple symbols exhibit SMT divergences simultaneously, increasing the reliability of signals.
- Confluence labels are displayed on the chart with customizable colors and styles for quick identification.

4. **Enhanced Dashboard**
- Displays real-time data on SMT divergences, pivot counts, and current prices for all tracked symbols.
- Customizable location (Top Right, Bottom Right, etc.), text size, and color scheme for a personalized trading experience.
- Shows percentage of pivots with SMT divergences for each symbol, aiding in signal prioritization.

5. **Advanced Filtering and Customization**
- Minimum divergence strength filter to reduce noise and focus on high-impact signals.
- Optional liquidity interaction requirement to ensure SMT signals occur near significant price levels.
- Extensive style options for SMT lines, confluence labels, and dashboard aesthetics.

6. **Alert System**
- Configurable alerts for:
- SMT divergence detection (single symbol).
- Confluence events (multiple symbols).
- New time cycle starts.
- Alerts are designed to integrate seamlessly with TradingView’s notification system for timely trade execution.

### How It Works
1. **SMT Divergence Detection**
The script identifies divergences by comparing pivot highs and lows between the chart’s price action and up to three user-selected symbols. A divergence occurs when the chart’s price movement opposes the comparison symbol’s movement (e.g., chart makes a higher high while the symbol makes a lower high). Only divergences meeting the minimum strength threshold and optional liquidity interaction criteria are displayed.

2. **Time Cycle Framework**
The indicator tracks price action within defined time cycles (e.g., 30min, 4H, Daily), updating cycle highs and lows dynamically. This contextualizes SMT signals within market moves, improving trade timing.

3. **Confluence and Visualization**
When multiple symbols show SMT divergences at the same pivot, a confluence label highlights the event, signaling higher-probability setups. The dashboard provides a snapshot of SMT activity, pivot counts, and price data across all symbols.


### Ideal Use Cases
- **Day Trading:** Use on lower timeframes (1min–30min) to capture intraday SMT setups during major sessions (London, NY).
- **Swing Trading:** Apply on higher timeframes (4H–Weekly) to identify longer-term reversal points with confluence.
- **Index Trading:** Optimized for major indices (ES, NQ, YM) but adaptable to other correlated assets.
- **Risk Management:** Combine with session anchors and confluence signals to filter high-probability entries.
