Source Code

The code stays on GitHub. The author has not published this script under an open licence, so ForexR does not show its code. Copy script reads the file straight from GitHub into your clipboard, so you can still try it on your own chart. Ask the author before reusing the code anywhere else.

Overview

Apex Protocol v3.0 - The SMC Engine detects market structure shifts (MSS), breaks of structure (BOS), M5 Fair Value Gaps (FVG), Order Blocks (OB), and Asian session ranges. It also evaluates SMT divergence using a user-specified correlated ticker like DXY and highlights London and New York session killzones with selectable strategy models. User inputs adjust HTF and LTF timeframes, killzone sessions, and visual element toggles. Higher timeframe calculations may introduce lookahead bias on historical bars.

Third-party code. ForexR did not write, test or endorse this script, and the summary above was generated automatically from its code and README. Indicators describe the past, and a strategy's backtest can look better than live trading, especially when a script repaints. Check it in the Strategy Tester and on a demo account before you rely on it.
