Stops & Targets detects hammer and shooting star candlestick patterns filtered by a 50-period EMA trend. When a setup occurs and no active trade is tracked, it calculates a stop loss using an ATR multiplier and projects a profit target according to the chosen risk-to-reward ratio. The script plots the entry signals, the EMA line, and active stop and target levels.
