Source Code

Overview
Ighodalo Gold - CRT (Candles are ranges theory) calculates high, low, and midpoint lines for each enabled CRT set to identify support and resistance levels based on candle ranges. Buy and sell signals appear as shapes when price breaks these ranges, with optional ATR-based tolerance filtering. Main settings control lookback length, label display, line styles and colors, signal shapes, and whether to enable each CRT timeframe. It draws directly on the chart and can show labels at the end of lines. Signals may repaint on the live bar and lack built-in exit rules.
