Source Code

The code stays on GitHub. The author has not published this script under an open licence, so ForexR does not show its code. Copy script reads the file straight from GitHub into your clipboard, so you can still try it on your own chart. Ask the author before reusing the code anywhere else.

Overview

Planetary Retrograde Periods supports planets from Mercury through Pluto and divides retrograde cycles into two distinct phases with a midpoint marker. The indicator highlights stationary turning points for retrograde, midpoint, and direct motion, and can project future retrograde periods ahead with customizable date labels. Settings allow users to adjust planet choices, lookahead bar counts, timezones, and display styling.

Third-party code. ForexR did not write, test or endorse this script, and the summary above was generated automatically from its code and README. Indicators describe the past, and a strategy's backtest can look better than live trading, especially when a script repaints. Check it in the Strategy Tester and on a demo account before you rely on it.
