Overview

When RSI crosses above 50, it places a long stop entry at the current high price with a custom alert message. When RSI crosses below 50, it places a short stop entry at the current low price. The script plots the RSI line, a 50 reference line, and signal shapes in a separate pane. It includes no default stop loss or explicit profit target.
