Dynamic Supply & Demand (SnD):
Automatically plots significant horizontal Support and Resistance levels based on recent price imbalances.
Major Trend Filter (200 EMA):
Built-in trend plot that acts as a gatekeeper; it only allows bullish signals above the line and bearish signals below it.
Momentum Confluence:
Signals are cross-verified using
CCI

MACD
algorithms to ensure price movement has sufficient backing.
Trend Strength Filter (ADX):
Automatically turns candles
Gray
during low-volatility or sideways markets to protect you from "choppy" conditions.

Compares current tick volume against local averages to confirm genuine market participation.
How to Use:
Bullish Entry (Green):
Enter when the candle turns Green, price is above the 200 EMA, and ideally bouncing off a

line.
Bearish Entry (Red):
Enter when the candle turns Red, price is below the 200 EMA, and ideally rejecting a
