Overview

Columns are green for gains and red for losses, with aqua and fuchsia highlighting changes above or below two configurable thresholds. A second value on the status line shows how often highlighted bars occurred within a chosen lookback range. It contains no trade signals, only a measurement of how much price has moved.

Indicators describe the past, and a strategy's backtest can look better than live trading, especially when a script repaints.
