Overview

Includes an optional SuperTrend filter with customizable factors and period for signal confirmation and visual entry or exit arrows. Features configurable inputs for stop loss, take profit, trailing stops, and date ranges for backtesting. Note that using higher-timeframe data without historical offsets causes repainting on historical bars.
