The indicator works by tracking and plotting the high and low points of the previous 15-minute candle, along with the current 15-minute candle's opening price. These lines are displayed as visual markers on any selected timeframe chart, providing traders with immediate reference points for potential price support and resistance levels. The lines serve as quick visual cues about recent price action and potential trading zones.
The indicator offers flexibility through a 'DrawHistorical' option for backtesting and a live trading mode. When using live trading, it maintains a maximum lookback of 18 segments, ensuring the display remains clean and relevant. Traders can toggle the text draw option to provide additional clarity about what each plotted line represents.
