Overview
Moving Average Based Zig Zag detects pivot highs and lows on this moving average to construct a connecting zigzag line plotted directly on the price chart. Parameters allow adjustment of moving average length, pivot source type, line style, width, and distinct colors for up and down segments. The indicator reveals swing structure for trend analysis but offers no automated entry or exit signals.
