Multiple Period Percentage Change Extreme Dots

This indicator visualizes percentage changes across three different timeframes (8, 13, and 21 days), highlighting extreme movements that break out of a user-defined band. It's designed to identify which timeframe is showing the most significant percentage change when prices make notable moves.

Features:
- Tracks percentage changes for 8-day, 13-day, and 21-day periods
- Customizable upper and lower bands to define significant moves
- Shows dots only for the most extreme moves (highest above band or lowest below band)
- Color-coded for easy identification:
- Blue: 8-day changes
- Green: 13-day changes
- Red: 21-day changes
- Includes current values display for all timeframes

Usage Tips:
- Shorter timeframes (8-day) are more sensitive to price changes and should use narrower bands (e.g., ±3%)
- Medium timeframes (13-day) work well with moderate bands (e.g., ±5%)
- Longer timeframes (21-day) can use wider bands (e.g., ±8%)
- Dots appear only when a timeframe shows the most extreme move above/below bands
- Use the gray zone between bands to identify normal price action ranges

The indicator helps identify which lookback period is showing the strongest momentum in either direction, while filtering out normal market noise within the bands.

Note: This is particularly useful for:
- Identifying trend strength across different timeframes
- Spotting which duration is showing the most extreme moves
- Filtering out minor fluctuations through the band system
- Comparing relative strength of moves across different periods
