Price Action Candles with Zig Zag detects swing highs and lows over a user-set length, then labels them as higher high, lower high, higher low, or lower low when price-action labels are enabled. A zigzag line between swings can be shown separately. Point-of-interest sensitivity and width control how zones are sized, using ATR in the zone logic. Zigzag and swing labels are off by default. It does not place trades or stops.
