ORB Parabolic SAR Multi Time Frame (PSAR MTF)
This is an adaptation of the inbuilt PSAR function in a Multi Time Frame .
When MTF enabled It will plot two timeframe simultaneously as follows:-
1 Min with 5 Min (HTF)
5 Min with 15 Min(HTF)
15 Min with 1H(HTF)
1H with 4H(HTF)
4H with Daily(HTF)
Daily with Weekly(HTF)
Weekly with Monthly(HTF)
The higher timeframe(HTF) will get plotted in bigger circled lines.
By enabling plotting of all levels, you can see all current levels of all TF( M1 ,M5,M15,H,4H,D,W,M) on the same screen as "X" on the right side.
Alerts allow you to get alerts when these crossover happens.
Swingtrading
Clutch AlgoThe Clutch Algo provides reversal signals and trend signals. The indicator can be used for stocks, crypto and forex. It can also be used for day trading and swing trading.
Reversal signals were done by modifying the Bollinger Bands and MACD and combining them in a unique way to find explosive price actions. These have been modified to provide signals at the bottom or top of a trend to catch price reversals and to improve margin of safety on trades. These signals are labeled as “Long” and “Short”.
We also added automatic support and resistance zones to increase the accuracy of the “Long” and “Short” signals. This was done by using historical price action of highs and lows and periods of consolidation where price reversed.
The trend signals, which are labeled as “Bull” and “Bear” signals use a combination of exponential moving averages. These signals can be used as trend continuations.
We also added an exponential moving average cloud to help traders easily visualize trend. This can be used as a guide to help you stay in a trade to maximize profits. It can also be used as a guide to get out of a trade if price breaks out of the cloud. The third use of the cloud can be used as support resistance in between high/low support and resistance zones.
Tips:
- Only take long/short signals when there is a support or resistance zone formed at or near the long/short signal, preferably within 1-3 bars of the support or resistance zone. Signals too far from "Long" or "Short" signals reduces your margin of safety.
- When in a Long or Short position, use support or resistance zones as a stop loss level as price is likely to go against the position.
- When taking a Long/Short or Bull/Bear signal, wait for candles to be completed to get best entry possible.
- Previous support zones can be used as resistance zones and previous resistance zones can be used as support zones.
- The support and resistance (SR) period can be adjusted. Numbers in the SR settings are bars looking back. For example, a setting of 10, looks back 10 bars.
Trend Pro ReversalTrend Pro Reversal Indicator ( TPR ) is a trend following indicator that I created to analyze market trends.
It is a perfect tool for investors/swing traders to ride the waves.
The algorithm combines several settings.
Multiple moving averages and indicators to follow the trend : their confluence associates a color at each daily candle:
-Red ( bearish ++ )
-Green ( bullish ++ )
-Orange (trend reversal - pre bearish )
-Light blue (trend reversal - pre bullish )
Color precision can be managed in the settings pannel. More precision = more reactivity but also can imply more false signals. The optimal settings is between 32 to 34.
-"Bottom detector" (green dots) : volume based algo, generally corresponds to Spikes in selling volume , and interesting low prices zones.
>>>This setting need to be adjust to each asset and exchanges because it's volume based. Some exchange are more relevant than other (coinbase, ftx, binance..)
For exemple for bitcoin , coinbase with a 150-160 bottom setting is good for mid-long term bottoms.
The lower bottom precision is, the more it shows short term dips.
- "Weakness detector" (white dots) : weakness in the trend - avoid fake outs
>>>This is not necesseraly a sell signal.
When buying momentum and price action is weak, this parameter is actived. It can often lead to short/mid term dump
- Confirmation cloud :
>>>Break it to the upside and there are more chances that the trend is confirmed. It often acts like support cloud in bitcoin bullmarkets. Waiting for the break of the confirmation cloud imply lower risk but also lower performance for swing traders.
Accumulate and averaging down when an asset shows green dots + red candles (bottom zone) and start to close position when weakness come in (green/orange/early-red /white dots) can permit to maximize gains in bullmarket and protect wallet when corrections happen.
-> Ideal use in daily timeframe . Some false signal can happen only when the trend is not clear. (tight range and f*ckmoves)
Designed for bitcoin initially. (works with most altcoins / stocks )
Bias Pivot PointA simple indicator that uses Pivot Points as a filter and to generate a Directional Bias .
How to use this indicator?
1. Directional Bias
Bullish => Closing Price > Pivot Point
Bearish => Closing Price < Pivot Point
2. Support / Resistance
Each Pivot Points can be used as Support or Resistance
3. Take Profit Targets
Each Pivot Points can be used as targets for taking profit
Swing ComparatorHere I bring you an array of methods to compare the swings and consistency between assets.
This indicator is excellent for swing traders and scalpers looking to maximize their profits by examining which of two closely related pairs provides greater price fluctuation during given period.
This indicator works against two assets, which are to be configured in settings.
This indicator has 5 particular plots for you to examine, each which can be considered for you to contemplate which pair for you to next perform a trade on.
First off, let's start with the blue.
The blue is simply a pearson correlation coefficient, thankfully now included in tradingview. This provides a value of 1 as values show to be close correlation, 0 showing no correlation, and -1 showing negative correlation - meaning an increase in one pair correlates to a decrease in another pair. This will turn green when greater than 0.975, showing a very strong relationship between the two pairs, and red when below -0.975. This is the only plot to be interpreted on a scale from -1 to +1.
Next, we have the purple and yellow background plots, followed by the white and green moving averages. Though similar, these are all slightly different.
For each of these 4 plots, a value greater than 0 indicates greater price swings for your Symbol #1, while a value less than 0 indicates greater price swings for Symbol #2.
These calculations are performed on a per bar basis, meaning you're likely going to be examining bars longer than what you'll normally be trading on. Use confluence, as well as your own judgement for this.
For example, if symbol #1 provides a bar with an open value 1% greater or less than close, providing a 1% swing on a given bar, but symbol #2 provides 2%, the indicator will fall down toward the negative, as Symbol #2 had the greater swing.
First, yellow focuses on only open/close bar values, and thus the body of the candlestick.
Purple, on the other hand, focuses on the wicks of the candle - thus, the high/low values. I've opted to make these two different values as a wick focuses on the embodiment within the time period, and body focuses on the open/close instant.
Next, the green is an extended EMA of the purple - High/Low ratio. This is important to examine trend overtime, and reduce unneeded noise.
Lastly, the white is simply difference in the standard deviation of the particular bars, between the two symbols you have selected. The tends to usually tie up with the green pretty well.
Considering this is going to by nature be very noisy datasets, I have included in settings the option to extend an EMA for everything. They have their default settings, but if you'd like to examine the trend without an EMA, feel free to set it to 1 to eliminate its effects.
I have additionally added the ability to introduce clipping, as well as scale the correlation coefficient to remain visible when examining very short term time scales. In the future, I hope to properly normalize all plots to remain within a -1 to +1 basis. Please be patient as I have multiple projects ongoing.
Suggestions and constructive criticism are very well encouraged.
Anyone is welcome to utilize this in their code, as well, i just ask you provide credit.
As you reduce to time frames less than a day, you will likely have to reduce the coefficient min/max closer to 0.025, or just hide it entirely.
TODO:
Make it look better. Sorry, folks.
Introduce latency between pairs.
Examine significance of a coefficient of determination
Remove static weights and introduce z-score and linear normalization.
Consider adding room for a 3rd pair. This could get ugly, however.
RSI true swingsRelative Strength Index (RSI) is being used by majority of the traders to get benefitted based on the swings. But these swings are hard to Identify.
This Indicator uses 4 major factors for finding the potential reversal points:
RSI Crossover or crossunder
Relative volume
Overall volume against the moving average volume
Relative closing of the candles
Size of the bars
Please read Instructions carefully before using this indicator
Recommended entry is the OHLC4 of the signal bars.
If signal bar is too large, try to enter in the retracement when another signal comes either through indicator or through types of bars
when signals comes opposite to the trend, then try to wait for the next signal of same type. This creates a RSI-price divergence in confirmation by volume price action
Timeframe can be of your choice
Recommended stoploss should be swing highs or lows
Swing Pivots High LowBINANCE:BTCUSDT
This indicator is an opensource merge of the built in 'Pivot Points High Low' and the most popular 'Swing-high-low-support-resistance' indicators. The original 'Pivot Points High Low' does not have extensions with better visibility, while the most popular 'Swing-high-low-support-resistance' has no source available. I've also added additional configurable alert conditions for Pivot High and Low Crossover/Crossunder.
Please read the official documentation for further information about the indicator.
BloodSwing Indicator-SWING TRADING STRATEGY FOR PASSIVE TRADERS-
A Multi-timeframe Strategy
This swing trading strategy uses three moving averages pegged to the 4H timeframe, to enter and exit the market on the 1H timeframe.
The 200 EMA (4H timeframe) is used to identify areas of support. If this moving average shows signs of support (shown as green circles under candles), the 18 and 22 moving average (4hour timeframe) crossover is used to enter the market, but on the 1 hour chart (for more accuracy) and only after an increase in volume on the 1 hour timeframe has been detected.
Manually this strategy is explained as follows:
1. Look for candle support on 200 MA (4H Timeframe)
2. On the 1H chart, look for the crossover of 18 and 22 ma (4H Timeframe)
3. As soon as you see volume increase on 1H, enter.
4. Exit on cross under of 18 and 22 ma (4H Timeframe)
5. Stop Loss below 200EMA support candle low.
Signals:
- Support signals are shown as green circles under the candles
- Long, Close, Stop signals are shown as labels and can be toggled on and off.
Extras (In option menu):
MA Deviation:
A standard deviation measure used on the 200 EMA in order to provide some range for support signals to be considered valid.
Use volume expansion for entry:
As an option (on by default), you can disable volume increase as a condition for entry.
Swing EMAWhat is Swing EMA?
Swing EMA is an exponential moving average crossover-based indicator used for low-risk directional trading.
it's used for different types of Ema 20,50,100 and 200, 3 of them are plotted on chat 20,100,200.
100 and 200 Ema is used for showing support and resistance and it contains highlights area between them and its change color according to market crossover condition.
20 moving average is used for knowing Market Behaviour and changing its color according to crossover conditions of 50 and 20 Ema.
How does it work?
It contains 4 different types of moving averages 20,50,100, 200 out of 3 are plotted on the chart.
20 Ema is used for knowing current market behavior. Its changes its color based on the crossover of 50 Ema and 20 Ema, if 20 Ema is higher than 50 Ema then it changes its color to green, and its opposites are changed their color to red when 20 Ema is lower than 50 Ema.
100 and 200 Ema used as a support and resistance and is also contain highlighted areas between them its change their color based on the crossover if 100 Ema is higher than 200 Ema a then both of them are going to change color to Green and as an opposite, if 200 Ema is higher then 100 Ema is going to change its color to red.
So in simple word 100 and 200 Ema is used as support and resistance zone and 20 Ema is used to know current market behavior.
How to use it?
It is very easy to understand by looking at the example I gave where are the two different types of phrases. phrase bull phrase and bear phrase so 100 and 200 Ema is used as a support and resistance and to tell you which phrase is currently on the market on example there is a bull phrase on the left side and bear phrase on the right side by using your technical analysis you can find out a really good spot to buy your stocks on a bull phrase and too short on the bear phrase. 20 Ema is used as a knowing the current market behavior it doesn't make any difference on buying or selling as much as 100 Ema and 200 Ema.
Tips
Don't trade against the market.
Try trade on trending stocks rather than sideways stock.
The higher the area between 100 Ema and 200 Ema is the stronger the phrase.
Do Backtesting before real trading.
Enjoy Trading.
Swing Dream - PAINT BARS | MA | EMA | DMA | VWAP | TABLE | ADR %- Swing Dream -
Script created for breakout-swing traders, in the style of QullaMaggie * , Dan Zanger, Oliver Kell, and Stockbee.
The following indicators are used by most successful breakout-swing traders such as mentioned above.
(As published) it contains:
Painted Bars, also known as inside/outside candles. Used for candle analysis and to determine breakout pivots & levels. For instance; use it in different timeframes and seek formations (ex, 3-1-2). For further inspiration, study Rob Smith's The Strat .
MA, Simple Moving Averages (Basic levels = 10,20,50,200). Use this indicator to define resistance/support areas as well as the overall long/swing-term trend. In breakout strategies such as EP, Flags, etc this can be used for trailing stops; an example, post-breakout, let the price ride the 20ma before exiting your position.
EMA, Exponential Moving Averages with periods inspired by Qullamaggie (10,20,65). Use this on shorter timeframes (ex, 1h) and for the same principles as MAs.
VWAP, Volume-Weighted Average Price. As for the previous, utilize this as a level indicator to find areas of resistance/support. Good for swing-trading as it implies whenever holders are profitable or not.
DMA, Displaced Moving Average (Horizontal). Personally, I use this a lot. Works very well for trailing stops (post breakout) and "bounce" areas. Choose your own offset and period.
ADR%, Average Daily Range Percentage. Displayed in the table and used to define a symbol's volatility. A very good tool for Qullamaggie-style trading. Personally, I try to find setups with over 6% ADR. Basic definition; low ADR% = Increased chance of a symbol to move slower and in smaller ranges. A higher value equals the opposite.
Table. A table with basic symbol-related information. Could save you plenty of time whenever you scan or search for new swing setups. Looking to add more features here.
Why should you use this script? Well, instead of having tens of different indicators, use this script and combine everything together with EP, Flag, or breakout principles. Suited for every plan, and more efficient in my opinion.
View settings to turn on/off different indicators.
* If you're looking for an introduction and further explanation of how Qullamaggie uses mentioned indicators, I could recommend checking out his website, stream, or participation in "Chat With Traders".
At last, I want to credit: @jkcqld @neolao @TheScrutiniser
This Script will get updated and improved.

Beakdoo swing trading boxHi forks,
I'm trader Baekdoosan who trading Equity from South Korea. This Baekdoo swing trading box indicate good buying position when it crossover the box.
Here's the ideas
1. It needs to crossover 1 month highest value and higher than 5 ema and 20 ema line
2. It also needs to crossover 1 month volume as well
3. Once 1,2 soaring candle emerge, it needs to correction time
4. 5 ema or 20 ema or center candle's 2/3 point x 0.95 (5% lower) would be the resistant line
5. center candle's 2/3 point line would be the buying point (you may can trade when it cross over
you can check above example chart and take a look what you have interested in.
hope this will help your trading on equity as well as crypto. I didn't try it on futures . Best of luck all of you. Gazua~!
Hi/Lo Swing Index [by hajixde]Author: Hajixde
This indicator illustrates the High-to-Low variation. It works nicely on shorter time frames.
The index value is calculated based on the observation length (Memory Length). By changing this input, you can have a wider or shorter observation range.
MA Length is the moving average filter length, which smooths out the signal.
There is an additional smoothing function to make the output even smoother (Smoothing Length). Remember, that "Smoothing Length" is better to be less than "MA Length".
You may activate the trend direction.
RedK Magic RibbonRedK Magic Ribbon is simple script that combines a fast and a slow moving averages to create a 2-Moving Average Cross-over / trend visualization tool.
We utilize the Compound Ratio Weighted Average (CoRa Wave) as the fast MA line and the RedK Slow Smooth Weighted Moving Average (RSS_WMA) aka LazyLine as the slow MA line.
i put this script together when i found that i started using these 2 moving average lines in my trading charts most of the time. thought others may find it useful.
The simple idea is that when the 2 lines "agree" on direction, then this is possibly a confirmed trend in that direction.
Visually, when the 2 lines agree on a trend direction, Magic Ribbon gives either a green (up) or red (down) fill, when they disagree, it gives a gray fill - Gray areas are considered "no trade" or "get ready" zones depending on the situation.
This ribbon can be used to support trend-following trades, swing trading, or as a visual trend tracking tool
Suggested Usage Tips:
----------------------------
* Position entry should be made as close to the RSS_WMA/LazyLine as possible to maximize gain.
* The RSS_WMA can act as a guide for Stop Loss
* An aggressive (or swing) trader may consider entries as soon as the CoRa Wave line changes color, but in context of the prevailing trend.
* if you intend to use this tool for trading, please test it using the PaperTrading or Rewind features of TV to get used to how it behaves and adjust accordingly.
* The Magic Ribbon should work on any timeframe.
* The basic settings are available - they enable adjusting the length and smoothness of the CoRa Wave and the Smoothness of the RSS_WMA - as well as the source price for each. Style settings enable to adjust color, line width, or hide/show various elements as needed.
* The most important tip for using the Magic Ribbon: when you first add it to your chart, is to fine-tune the length settings to your preference. start by adjusting the LazyLine (RSS_WMA) Smoothness value, so it tracks and barely touches the highs / lows of price bars - with the least amount of lag possible - then adjust the CoRa Wave length to make it as responsive as you need. Keep smoothness to the lowest you can use (i like 3 or 4 max) - the default settings are generic usable values based on my testing.
* as usual, please use this tool only as a guide - make your own detailed chart analysis and support your trading decision with signals and confirmations from other indicators .

Pivot Points And Breakout Price Action With LuckyNickVaBar Color Candle Aligned with pivot points swing high and swing lows For Those Who Are Familiar with Trading The Breakouts Of Highs & Lows Of Structure. Pivots are said to be key areas in the market where price shows heavy reaction to where reversals make occur. At these points there are swing Highs & swing lows that traders may be able to find opportunity in the market. This Script is a combination of pivot points and Barcolor signals for the breakout.
Scalp ProScalp Pro is a scalping tool that uses the MACD mechanism. MACD lines are smoothed using fibonacci numbers and pi numbers. In this way, the noise on the signal is reduced. A " BUY " signal is generated when the lines cross upwards. If the lines cross down, a " SELL " signal is generated. The logic is very simple and the Indicator is very useful.
I wish you many profitable trades.
Multi Range VWAP PivotsMulti Range VWAP Pivots turned out to be one of my most accurate pivot indicators to date!
Multi Range VWAP Pivots works by recognizing the high and low of the timeframe selected (D, W, M, 6M, and 12M) and plotting range high to VWAP averages and range low to VWAP averages.
After further examination of each completed range, I came to the conclusion that due to the nature of averages, high and low respectively would need to be completed within the current range, for the averages to actually display pivots correctly. This means that if all averages appear to be "pivoting" correctly after or during a break lower of higher, then we can only assume the most recent break higher or lower could be exhaustion and price will be reverted to the mean (VWAP). OR, this could be the most accurate hindsight indicator on the planet.
*DISCLAIMER*: This indicator repaints. DO NOT backtest or set alerts with this indicator.
Drawdown VisualisationAn indicator that let's you visualize the current drawdown and maximum drawdown from an All-Time High
Moving Average and PerformanceThis indicator combines several tools that are used daily for analysis:
The performance of the action we are seeing.
The percentage of retracement the stock has made from its all time high.
Possibility of using up to four exponential or simple moving averages in the length we want.
It allows to see or not the levels of four moving averages in daily temporality.
This indicator is unique since it allows you to see in real time the performance of the Stock or ETF that is being analyzed, which allows you to make a timely decision for short, medium or long-term investments.
If you are doing scalping, swing, or intraday trading, you can see the retracement it has made from the ATH (3, 5, 10 or 13%) which can become Supports or Resistances where the price can rebound, Likewise, the levels of the moving averages in 1D temporality can be observed at the same time, which are usually dynamic supports or resistances and it can also be observed in the same temporality of the chart four moving averages that the trader can configure in the length that you deem convenient to improve your analysis and make decisions as quickly as possible.
Este indicador es único ya que permite ver en tiempo real el rendimiento de la Acción o ETF que se está analizando, lo cual permite tomar una decisión oportuna para las inversiones a corto, mediano o largo plazo.
Si se está haciendo trading tipo scalping, swing, o intradía, se puede observar el retroceso que ha hecho desde el ATH (3, 5, 10 o 13%) el cual puede convertirse en Soportes o Resistencias en donde el precio puede hacer rebotes, así mismo se pueden estar observando al mismo tiempo los niveles de las medias móviles en temporalidad de 1D, los cuales usualmente son Soportes o resistencias dinámicas y también se puede observar en la misma temporalidad del gráfico cuatro medias móviles que el trader puede configurar en la longitud que crea conveniente para mejorar su análisis y tomar decisiones lo más rápido posible.
VWAP High/Low ChannelIn short, the VWAP High/Low Channel is based on VWAP "newsession" on swing high/low, with a basis of the two.
The VWAP High/Low channel seems to act like Bollinger bands or Donchain Channels when squeezing for a breakout, while also acting as a pivot after a breakout.
One For All - Overextended Price ChannelIntroduction :
Channels are very useful tools to assess overextended price, volatility and upcoming retracement or impulsive moves (such as Bollinger Band squeezes). It is an indispensable addition to any trader using Mean Reversion theory for a scalp-trade or swing-trade.
This script contains :
- 2 channels Keltner-style, usingthe True Range for volatility
- a fully customizable volatility (channel width) and smoothing period (up to the ALMA parameters)
- both channel separately configurable , i.e. having a different volatility setting or smoothing method for each
- a useful selection of smoothing methods) to be used instead of the standard SMA or EMA, such as ALMA or Hull
- an embedded readjustment of the lower bands to avoid the drop on a logarithmic scale (see explanation below)
- a double layered channels with a gradient color to help dollar cost averaging in and out of positions
Why another channel indicator ?
I have found most conventional channels to be either not based on "proper" volatility (e.g. standard deviation of price action for Bollinger Band), or the bottom channel to be ill adapted to the logarithmic scale and plunges to 0 on some high volatility periods, messing with readability on logarithmic auto-scaled chart.
Also, I find the channels to be most useful when superimposed with another one of longer length; especially a pair of channels with a 50 and 200 period moving average respectively. Mean Reversion traders that mostly trade the 50 and 200 SMA/EMA know what I am talking about as having a channel helps to have a better visual for a proper of entry and exit point.
Lastly, wondering why traders mostly use the SMA/EMA for the channel center, historic reason, personal preference, stubborn beliefs...? Well you will find that using other smoothing method such as the ALMA or Hull shows very interesting restults that seem -I dare say- more accurate, this option is provided in this script (some screen shot below speak for themselves).
Disclaimer :
This indicator was originally intended to be used along with the Trend Insight System to improve performance, and the default configuration mostly backtested on BTCUSD.
Please use with caution, proper risk management and along with your favorite oscillator, candlestick reading and signals system.
Some explanation :
Based on Mean Reversion paradigm, everything has a tendency to revert back to the mean :
- when the price enters the upper channel, it is supposed to be (or start getting) overbought as the market is getting overheated, thus prone to correction,
- on the other hand, when the price enters the lower channel, it is supposed to be (or getting) oversold and the market looks favorable for a buy-in.
Depending on the trading style used, a trader will usually either wait until the price leaves the channel towards the mean before taking action (conservative style) or you will set limit orders inside the channel as you expect a reversion to the mean (more agressive/risky style).
With two channels, more complex (and maybe precise) rules can be built to optimize one's trading strategy, especially adjusting the volatility multiplier inputs for each channel. Using different smoothing method for each is interesting to play with (especially Hull for the 50 and maybe VWMA for the 200) but not keenly advised unless you know what you are doing.
An example using the conventional Volume Weighted Keltner-like channel :
A more interesting channel using the most recent ALMA smoothing method :
Another variant using the Hull smoothing method to better see squeezes and overextensions :
This last screenshot shows the reason why it was originally intended to be used along with the Verbatim of the Trend Insigth System :
Important notes :
While this version is fun to use thanks to a very customizable side, you might get into the neverending maze of trying tofind an optimal setting for volatility and smoothing length to adapt to each and every market you are trading. Hence, be wary of overoptimization which is risky at best and counter productive at worst (according to legendary traders such as Mark Douglas).
In the end, sticking with 50/200 length and a single setting on volatility might be wiser. Even if, needless to say, the volatility needs to be adjusted between a nascent and volatile market (such as crypto) compared to standard call markets that are much less volatile.
End notes :
It will always be considered a work in progress to help bring out the best of trading with channels, any comment and suggestion are welcomed.

D Indicators - Positional tool*Presenting a perfect setup for Positional and Swing traders.
1) Slow and Fast Bands
# 3 fast and 3 slow, in total of 6 EMA bands are added to the indicator in order
to make accurate decisions and helping find out in which trend the price is.
Enter when price gives a breakout above or below all of the 6 bands.
2) Trend Indicators
# Total of 3 trend indicators are also included:
Trend Indicator 1 ---> It is a SMA(20) and its color changes based upon
Trend Indicator 2 ---> will be plotted at the bottom of the screen. Based upon RSI
Trend Indicator 3 ----> EHMA
Their color will be yellow whenever the market is sideways which will act
as a cautionary sign that in about next phase the price will be rangebound.
Use them as a helping hand, and check whether they show the same trend or not while you enter.
3) Support/Resistance lines
# On charts, this indicator is used to locate levels of support and resistance.
As a function, Targets and SL can be planned.
When a candle closes above the support/resistance line, the lines change
color automatically. It'll turn green.
If the price is below the sup, it will also change color to red.
4) High/Low
# Will mark the high/low of a particular swing so that, one can place the SL over there and enter.
