Trading tools built by a developer, measured honestly
I build and test Smart Money Concepts tools: an automated XAU/USD bot and a TradingView indicator. See how they work, try the concepts yourself, and join the waitlist for the bot.
Structure
Price makes a swing low, bounces to a swing high, then pulls back without breaking the low.
Break of structure
A strong rally closes above the last swing high. That break is the first sign that the structure has turned bullish.
Fair value gap
The rally is so fast that the high of the candle before it and the low of the candle after it never overlap. The gap between them is the FVG.
Order block
The last down candle before the rally. Many SMC traders treat this zone as the place where larger orders entered.
Retest
Price returns through the gap into the order block, then continues higher. This is one possible path, not a rule. Measuring how often it happens is what this site is about.
What I build
XAU/USD SMC bot
It reads gold from the top down and only alerts when every timeframe agrees. The method is shown here. The results are measured, not advertised.
- H4: biasIs the higher timeframe bullish or bearish? Setups against it are ignored.
- M15: structureHas structure broken in the direction of the bias?
- M5: entryIs there a precise entry, with the stop behind structure?
- AI checkA vision model reviews the chart image and can veto the setup.
- Alert and recordThe alert goes to Telegram, and every setup is logged, including the skipped ones, so nothing gets cherry-picked later.
SMC indicator for TradingView
The same concepts the bot uses, drawn on your own chart. Written in Pine Script, with a user guide.
- Market structure: breaks and changes of character
- Order blocks and fair value gaps

Questions
What does the bot do?
It reads gold (XAU/USD) from the top down: the H4 chart sets the bias, M15 confirms the structure and M5 times the entry. An optional AI check reviews the chart. Then, depending on the mode you choose, it either sends the setup to Telegram or places the trade itself.
What do I need to run it?
MetaTrader 5 with a broker account, Python, and a computer or VPS that stays on. There is a step-by-step guide, and if you get stuck, we help you with the setup.
Which markets does it trade?
Currently only gold (XAU/USD).
Is the AI check required?
No, but it is recommended. It needs your own API key for the AI model, and the usage is billed by the AI provider.
Can I change the settings?
Yes. The risk per trade, the timeframes and the rules are all adjustable.
How is it sold?
For a one-time price, with no subscription. It includes the installation guide, setup help, updates and support. The price goes to the waitlist first.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. The exact terms are published together with the price.
How long has it been running?
Since spring 2026, with every setup logged, including the skipped ones. Past results do not predict future results, so I do not publish them as promises.
What about the indicator?
It is available on its own, and together with the bot it costs much less.
Is this investment advice?
No. The bot is software that you run and configure yourself, and nothing on this site tells you what to buy or sell. Trading with leverage is high risk.
The bot, for you to run
The bot is ready: you run it yourself, it comes with the method explained, and it makes no promises about returns. Sales open soon. Join the waitlist and you will hear first.
