Overview

Mc War detects swing highs and lows using pivot calculations to label higher highs, lower highs, higher lows, and lower lows. The script draws lines and labels for Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) upon breakout confirmation via close or wick. Settings allow full customization of swing lengths, line aesthetics, and order block colors.
