📊 Core Components Explained
1. Order Block System
What Are Order Blocks?
Order blocks are price zones where institutional activity has occurred, creating future support or resistance levels. SDMS automatically detects these critical zones.

Detection Logic:

Bullish Order Blocks: Form when price breaks above recent highs following bearish candles
Bearish Order Blocks: Form when price breaks below recent lows following bullish candles

Visual Identification:
Green boxes with "BuOB" labels (support zones)
Red boxes with "BeOB" labels (resistance zones)
Each block shows its boundary price for easy reference
Dynamic Management:
Automatically extends 300 bars into the future
Self-cleaning: removes blocks when price breaches their boundaries
Real-time adjustment to changing market structure

2. Statistical Support/Resistance System
How It Works:
SDMS creates support and resistance lines based on statistical extremes confirmed on the 1-hour timeframe.

Trigger Conditions:

Support Lines (Green): Trigger when 1H Bollinger Band % crosses above 0 and bearish momentum subsides.
Resistance Lines (Red): Trigger when 1H Bollinger Band % crosses below 1 and bullish momentum subsides

The Science Behind BB%:
BB% = (Price - Lower Band) / (Upper Band - Lower Band)
BB% <= 0: Price at statistical oversold extreme; also indicated by white candles.
BB% > 1: Price at statistical overbought extreme; also indicated by white candles.

Line Management:
Maximum of 15 active lines
Oldest lines automatically removed
Lines extend across chart for ongoing reference

3. Trend Analysis Suite
Hull Moving Average (HMA):
55-period smoothed trend indicator
Color-coded: Green = bullish, Red = bearish
Visual band shows trend acceleration/deceleration

Gaussian Channel:
Advanced filtering of market noise
Dynamic channel based on true range volatility
Helps identify mean reversion opportunities
Form a yellow band when price is overbought or oversold zones.

Linear Regression System:
Statistical price modeling
Multiple standard deviation bands (up to 3SD)
Regression-based candlestick visualization
Candles turn white when in overbought zones. Yellow candles indicate extremely overbought zones. Blue candles indicate a bullish trend with high volume.
Bearish candles are bluish-purple when volume is high and red when the volume is within normal ranges or low.

4. Momentum & Oscillator Integration
RSI with Deviation Tracking:
21-period RSI with 30-period smoothing
Tracks deviation from moving average based off linear regression
Identifies momentum divergences

Directional Movement Index:
Multi-period DMI/ADX analysis
Used to detect overbought and oversold zones within the indicator calculations.
Combines with RSI for enhanced signals
Momentum confirmation for all entries/exits

📈 Practical Trading Applications
For Swing Traders
Identify Key Levels: Use order blocks + BB% lines for entry/exit planning
Trend Confirmation: HMA + Gaussian channel for trend direction
Risk Management: Standard deviation bands for stop placement
Timing Entries: RSI/DMI alignment for optimal entry timing

For Day Traders
Intraday Levels: Order blocks provide immediate S/R for day trading
Momentum Signals: Real-time RSI/DMI signals for quick moves
Statistical Edges: Gaussian channel for mean reversion plays
Breakout Confirmation: Order block breaks with volume

For Position Traders
Higher Timeframe Structure: 1H BB% lines for major levels
Trend Persistence: HMA for long-term trend identification
Accumulation/Distribution Zones: Order blocks show institutional activity
Multi-Timeframe Alignment: Confirmation across timeframes

🔍 How to Use SDMS Effectively
Step 1: Market Structure Assessment
Identify active order blocks (green/red boxes)
Note BB% support/resistance lines (horizontal lines)
Assess HMA and moving average trend direction (color)
Check Gaussian channel position (preferably outside 2SD)

Step 2: Signal Confirmation
Wait for multiple indicator alignment
look for doji candles.
Confirm with green (bullish) or red (bearish) candles
Confirm with volume if available
Check for confluence of levels
Assess risk/reward based on nearby levels

Step 3: Trade Management
Enter at confirmed support/resistance
Place stops beyond opposite levels
Take profits at next statistical level
Monitor for structure changes

Step 4: Risk Management
Use standard deviation bands for volatility assessment
Never risk more than 1-2% per trade
Adjust position size based on confluence strength
Have predefined exit rules

💡 Advanced Strategies
Strategy 1: Confluence Trading
Setup: Order block + BB% line at same level
Entry: Price tests confluence zone with RSI signal
Stop: Beyond the confluence zone
Target: Next statistical level

Strategy 2: Breakout Trading
Setup: Price approaching order block boundary
Entry: Break with volume + RSI/DMI confirmation
Stop: Re-entry into order block
Target: Next BB% line extension

Strategy 3: Mean Reversion
Setup: Price at Gaussian channel extremes
Entry: RSI reversal signal at channel boundary
Stop: Beyond channel extreme
Target: Channel midline or opposite boundary
