Is there a horizontal support/resistance based Divergence Detector?

My idea of divergence is the following:
Divergence:
- Candle closes below support of a particular study on 1 chart but not on the other <- Divergence Type 1
- Candle close above resistance of a particular study on 1 chart but not on the other <- Divergence Type 2

I would like to detect such divergences between 2 studies in a chart.

I would like to know if there is Divergence Detector variant based on horizontal support/resistance?

Edit: The horizontal support/resistance are study-based (in my case, market structure lows/highs) not drawn out manually.

The "Divergence Detector" you reference allows you to specify the Main Price Graph item you want (Close in your case) along with the study that you want to compare it to. So if the concept of that Divergence Detector is what you want, then it should work without any modifications.

If, however, you do not want to compare the slopes and just get alerted when you have the situation you describe - e.g. "Candle closes below support of a particular study on 1 chart but not on the other". Then you would need to setup an Alert for this. Refer to the following:
