"Wilder's Channel," which is plotted on the chart overlay to assist traders in visualizing potential support and resistance levels. This script uses a combination of Wilder's Moving Average and the Average True Range (ATR) to create a channel around price movements. Here's a breakdown of how it works and its benefits:

Trend Confirmation: The channel helps confirm the current trend direction. If prices are consistently near the upper boundary, it suggests an uptrend, and vice versa for a downtrend.

Support and Resistance Levels: The Upper and Lower lines serve as dynamic support and resistance levels, which can help traders identify potential entry and exit points.

Volatility Insight: The width of the channel gives insight into market volatility. A wider channel indicates higher volatility, while a narrower channel suggests less volatility.

Trade Management: The buffer zones can be used for additional decision-making points, such as tightening stop-loss orders or preparing for potential breakouts or pullbacks.
