Contrarian 100 MAPairs nicely with Enhanced-Stock-Ticker-with-50MA-vs-200MA located here:
Description
The Contrarian 100 MA is a sophisticated Pine Script v6 indicator designed for traders seeking to identify key market structure shifts and trend reversals using a combination of a 100-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) envelope and Inner Circle Trader (ICT) Break of Structure (BoS) and Market Structure Shift (MSS) logic. By overlaying a semi-transparent SMA-based shadow on the price chart and plotting bullish and bearish structure signals, this indicator helps traders visualize critical price levels and potential trend changes. It leverages higher timeframe (HTF) pivot points and dynamic logic to adapt to various chart timeframes, making it ideal for swing and contrarian trading strategies. Customizable colors, timeframes, and alert conditions enhance its versatility for manual and automated trading setups.
Key Features
SMA Envelope: Plots a 100-period SMA for high and low prices, creating a semi-transparent (50% opacity) purple shadow to highlight the price range and provide context for price movements.
ICT BoS/MSS Logic: Identifies Break of Structure (BoS) and Market Structure Shift (MSS) signals for both bullish and bearish conditions, based on HTF pivot points.
Dynamic Timeframe Support: Adjusts pivot detection based on user-selected HTF (default: 1D) and chart timeframe (1M, 5M, 15M, 30M, 1H, 4H, 1D), ensuring adaptability across markets.
Visual Signals: Draws dotted lines for BoS (bullish/bearish) and MSS (bullish/bearish) signals at pivot levels, with customizable colors for easy identification.
Contrarian Approach: Signals potential reversals by combining SMA context with ICT structure breaks, ideal for traders looking to capitalize on trend shifts.
Alert Conditions: Supports alerts for bullish/bearish BoS and MSS signals, enabling integration with TradingView’s alert system for automated trading.
Performance Optimization: Uses efficient pivot detection and line management to minimize resource usage while maintaining accuracy.
Technical Details
SMA Calculation:
Computes 100-period SMAs for high (smaHigh) and low (smaLow) prices.
Plots invisible SMAs (fully transparent) and fills the area between them with 50% transparent purple for visual context.
Pivot Detection:
Uses ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow to identify HTF swing points, with dynamic lookback periods (rlBars: 5 for daily, 2 for intraday).
Tracks pivot highs (pH, nPh) and lows (pL, nPl) using a custom piv type for price and time.
BoS/MSS Logic:
Bullish BoS: Triggered when price breaks above a pivot high in a bullish trend, drawing a line at the pivot level.
Bearish BoS: Triggered when price breaks below a pivot low in a bearish trend.
Bullish MSS: Occurs when price breaks a pivot high in a bearish trend, signaling a potential trend reversal.
Bearish MSS: Occurs when price breaks a pivot low in a bullish trend.
Lines are drawn using line.new with xloc.bar_time for precise alignment, styled as dotted with customizable colors.
HTF Integration: Fetches HTF close prices and pivot data using request.security with lookahead_on for accurate signal timing.
Line Management: Maintains an array of lines (lin), removing outdated lines when new MSS signals occur to keep the chart clean.
Pivot Reset: Clears broken pivots (e.g., when price exceeds a pivot high or falls below a pivot low) to ensure fresh signal generation.

[killerbee] MTF RetracementKey Features
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Analysis: Plot the high, low, and open from up to four user-defined higher timeframes. This allows you to see the bigger picture and identify key levels that institutional traders are watching.
Dynamic Support & Resistance: Lines are drawn at these key MTF levels and extend until price breaks through them, providing a clean and dynamic view of support and resistance.
Session Highlighting: Automatically draw boxes and high/low lines for the Asia, London, and RTH (Regular Trading Hours) sessions. This helps you understand the context of price action throughout the trading day.
Customizable Opening Price Lines: Pinpoint significant opening prices with dedicated lines for events like the "Midnight Open," "8:30 Open," and "9:30 Open."
"NQ STATS TABLE": A powerful statistical table that provides real-time insights:
Break/Hit Confirmation: Instantly see when a key MTF high/low has been broken or when an opening price has been retraced to.
9 AM Directional Bias: A bullish or bearish bias based on the close of the 9 AM (New York time) hourly candle.
Historical Probabilities: The table displays historical probabilities for price to either break a previous high/low or retrace to the open, based on the current hour of the trading session.
Extensive Customization: Nearly every visual aspect of the indicator can be customized to your preference, including colors, line styles, visibility of each component, and the position of the stats table.
How to Use
Identify Key Levels: The lines from the higher timeframes (HTF1, HTF2, etc.) represent significant support and resistance. Pay close attention to these levels as price approaches them.
Look for Breaks and Retracements:
When a high or low line is broken, the line will stop extending. This can signal a shift in market structure and a potential continuation in the direction of the break.
The "Open Line" for each timeframe represents the opening price. When the line stops extending, it means price has retraced back to that open, a common occurrence in the market.
Utilize the Sessions:
The Asia, London, and RTH boxes help you frame your trading day. The highs and lows of these sessions are often critical levels of support and resistance.
Breakouts from these session ranges can lead to strong directional moves.
Leverage the STATS TABLE:
Use the "Break" and "Hit" columns to quickly confirm when key levels have been breached or revisited.
The "Direction" row gives you a quick sentiment reading based on the 9 AM candle.
The "Trades Back %" and "High/Low Forms" provide a statistical edge by showing you the historical likelihood of certain price behaviors based on the time of day. This can help you decide whether to play for a breakout or a retracement.
Key Open LevelsThis Pine Script indicator (Key Open Levels) allows users to highlight up to six specific open prices from different times of the trading day as horizontal lines on the chart.
Each line can be customized with user-defined style, width, and color settings.
Users also have the option to display price labels directly on the lines for added clarity.
The indicator is designed to work seamlessly across all intraday timeframes, including seconds, minutes, and hourly intervals, making it versatile for various trading strategies that rely on key intraday price levels.
This indicator has proved to be a key indicator especially for people studying Futures market reaction around Key Open Levels.
Dynamic Trend & Levels by VikOpineThis indicator combines the best aspects of trend-following, volume and price action to help traders make informed decisions and can be used with other indicators for confluence. 🚀
Key Features and Concepts:
Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA):
Unlike a simple moving average, the VWMA gives more weight to price action with higher volume, helping traders identify strong trends backed by significant market participation.
It helps distinguish between low-volume price fluctuations and meaningful market moves.
Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP):
Used by institutional traders, VWAP serves as a benchmark to gauge whether the current price is overbought or oversold relative to the average price weighted by volume.
The indicator tracks VWAP levels dynamically, offering insights into price reversion opportunities and breakout confirmations.
Fibonacci Levels (Dynamic Support & Resistance):
The script dynamically plots Fibonacci retracement and extension levels based on recent price swings, allowing traders to identify potential reversal and continuation zones. These levels change colors individually based on them becoming support or resistance.
Fibonacci levels help in setting stop-loss levels and profit targets based on natural market cycles.
Ichimoku Cloud (Trend Confirmation & Market Sentiment):
Provides a multi-dimensional view of trend strength, momentum, and potential reversals.
The Kumo (cloud) helps traders identify support and resistance zones, while the Tenkan-Sen and Kijun-Sen lines confirm trend direction. I prefer to remove the lines and only keep the clouds to anticipate upcoming trend.
How the Indicator Works:
The script dynamically calculates and overlays VWMA and VWAP to give a clear view of volume-backed trends.
Fibonacci levels are recalculated based on recent swing highs and lows, ensuring they remain relevant to current price action. This feature avoids to re-draw Fibs manually.
The Ichimoku Cloud adjusts in real-time to provide trend and momentum signals.
The session volume profile updates dynamically to highlight high-liquidity zones and potential breakout areas.
Alerts can be set up in Tradingview allowing traders to know the price action in real time.
How to Use This Indicator in Trading:
Trend Confirmation: Use VWMA, VWAP, and the Ichimoku Cloud to determine the prevailing trend and avoid trading against market momentum. Go with the trend.
Reversals: Look at the dynamic Fibonacci levels to find key support and resistance areas where price may reverse or consolidate. These levels change color as they become support or resistance.
Breakout & Continuation Trading: Monitor VWAP deviations and Ichimoku signals to identify strong trend continuation setups.
Mean Reversion: Use VWAP re-tests to spot potential pullback entries in established trends.
Alerts: Customize alerts to stay ahead of market moves.
Take advantage of paper trading feature available in Tradingview to familiarize yourself with this indicator. Experience is the best teacher as in any other case.
Ideal for:
✅ Traders looking to capitalize on VWAP trend and level.
✅ Traders utilizing Fibonacci levels and Ichimoku trends for structured trades.
✅ Scalpers leveraging levels and trends for quick entries/exits.
✅ Traders who rely on volume-backed trend confirmations.
No indicator is perfect so take everything with a pinch of salt.

Key Levels Suite - By LeviathanThis is a comprehensive script, designed to display over 100 key price levels across multiple dimensions, including volume profile levels, HTF levels, VWAPs, SMAs/EMAs, market session levels, day of week levels and more. The indicator offers high flexibility in features, settings and visual appearance.
● The script organizes levels into six main categories:
Higher Timeframe (HTF) Levels
- Current and/or previous period: Open, High, Low, and Midpoint for Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly timeframes (eg. levels for current weekly high/low and previous weekly high/low).
- These levels provide a clear structure for identifying key support and resistance zones. Traders often use HTF levels to anticipate price reactions, such as bounces or rejections, at major highs and lows. For example, a price nearing the weekly high could signal an area of resistance.
VWAP Levels
- Current and/or previous period: VWAP and upper/lower standard deviations for Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly timeframes (eg. levels for current daily VWAP and previous weekly VWAP).
- VWAP levels give traders insight into whether the current price is above or below the fair market value for a given period. It’s often used as a reference point for trend direction or S/R. If the price remains above VWAP, the trend may be seen as bullish, while breaks below VWAP can suggest a shift toward bearish sentiment. Standard deviations help identify areas where the price may be overextended, offering opportunities for mean reversion trades.
Moving Average Levels
- EMA and SMA for three customizable lengths (eg. levels for 200 EMA, 50 EMA and 100 SMA).
- These levels act as dynamic support and resistance lines that adjust with price movement. Traders use them to confirm trend direction and watch for reactions around these levels, particularly in trending markets. For example, when the price pulls back to a 200 EMA, it could present an opportunity to enter a trade in line with the prevailing trend.
Volume Profile Levels
- Current and previous: Point of Control (POC), Value Area High (VAH), and Value Area Low (VAL) for Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly timeframes (eg. levels for current day POC and previous day POC).
- Volume Profile levels highlight price areas where significant trading occurred. The POC indicates the price where the most volume was traded and can act as a strong magnet for price. VAH and VAL mark the boundaries of value areas, making them excellent spots for breakout or mean reversion trades. Traders look for price reactions around these zones to either join or fade moves.
Market Session Levels
- Current and previous: Open, high, low, and midpoint for three user-defined sessions, with default being Tokyo, London, and New York (eg. levels for current New York session open and previous New York session high and low).
- Session levels allow traders to track how price behaves across different global market sessions. For instance, the New York open often brings increased liquidity and volatility. Traders often use these levels to anticipate sharp moves or continuations, especially after session highs and lows are broken, signaling shifts in market momentum.
Day of Week Levels
- Open, high, low, and midpoint for Monday through Sunday (eg. levels for Monday's high and low and Tuesday open).
- These levels help traders identify recurring intraday or intraweek price behaviors. For example, highs or lows established earlier in the week can serve as benchmarks for breakouts or retracements later on. Monday’s open or Friday’s high/low often reflect market sentiment going into or out of the weekend, providing valuable clues for planning trades.
● About the script
I published this script because it was heavily requested by my Tradingview followers who wanted a clean and feature-rich indicator that can display various levels they use in their analysis. The indicator can display levels that are not available in other similar public scripts and makes sure to calculate and load calculation-intensive levels (like volume profile levels, higher timeframe vwap levels, etc) as fast and efficiently as possible. It is one of the only scripts I've published that is not open source. The code is protected because it includes some proprietary calculations (eg: for POC/VAH/VAL), that I don't wish to open source, but I still want to publish a heavily requested script in a public and free format.
● How to use the script
1. Add the script to your chart
Start by adding the script to your chart like any other indicator.
2. Open the indicator settings
Click the settings icon to access all customization options.
3. Select which level groups to display

[TTM] ICT Key Levels🌟 Overview 🌟
This tool highlights key price levels, such as highs, lows, and session opens, that can influence market moves. Based on ICT concepts, these levels help traders spot potential areas for market reversals or trend continuations.
🌟 Key Levels 🌟
🔹 Week Open (00:00 EST)
Marks the start of the trading week. This level helps track price direction and is useful for framing the Weekly candle formation using ICT’s Power of 3.
🔹 Midnight Open (00:00 EST)
The Midnight Open (MNOP) marks the start of the new trading day. Price often retraces to this level for liquidity grabs, setting up larger moves in the daily trend. It's also key for framing the Daily Power of 3 and spotting possible market manipulation.
🔹 New York Stock Exchange Open (09:30 EST)
The NYSE Open is a major liquidity event, where price seeks liquidity from earlier in the day, like stop hunts or retracements to the London or Midnight Open. This time often brings reversals or trend continuations as volatility increases.
🔹 Previous Day High/Low
These levels show where liquidity rests, often serving as targets for price revisits, ideal for reversals or continuation trades.
🔹 Previous Week High/Low
Similar to daily levels but on a larger scale. They help identify swing trades and track broader market trends.
🔹 Previous Month High/Low
These monthly levels are important for long-term traders, as price often aims to clear them before setting new trends or market cycles.
Happy Trading!

Key Zone LocatorThe "Key Locator" indicator identifies important price levels on a chart by analyzing historical data. It does this by:
Counting Touches: It calculates how many times the price touches each level within a specified period. This helps identify levels that the market frequently interacts with, which can indicate significant support or resistance.
Measuring Volume: It also sums up the trading volume at each level during the same period. High volume at a particular level can suggest strong interest or activity, making that level more significant.s based on historical market activity.
By combining these two metrics—touches and volume—the indicator highlights the most important price level on the chart, helping traders make informed decisions based on where the market has shown significant activity in the past.
Level Calculation:
The indicator first identifies the highest and lowest prices over a specified period, which is determined by the length parameter. It then divides this price range into 200 equal segments, creating potential key levels across the chart. Each segment represents a level where the price might show significant activity.
Metric Calculation:
For each of these levels, the indicator calculates two key metrics. First, it counts how many times the price touches or crosses each level during the specified period. Second, it sums up the trading volume associated with these touches at each level. This dual analysis helps in identifying levels that are not only frequently interacted with but also have substantial trading activity.
Normalization:
To facilitate comparison between different levels, the indicator normalizes both the touch count and the volume for each level to a scale from 0 to 10. This involves dividing each metric by its maximum observed value in the period and scaling it accordingly, ensuring that both metrics are on a comparable scale.
Scoring and Balancing:
Each level is assigned a score based on a weighted average of its normalized touch and volume scores. The weight_balance parameter allows users to adjust the emphasis between touches and volume. A higher weight on touches will prioritize levels frequently interacted with, while more emphasis on volume will highlight levels with significant trading activity.
Identify Key Level:
Finally, the indicator identifies the level with the highest combined score as the most significant. This key level is plotted on the chart in red, providing traders with a visual indication of potential areas of support or resistance based on historical data.
This comprehensive approach allows traders to pinpoint where crucial market activity has occurred, aiding them in making strategic decisions based on historical price behavior and trading volumes.
Please note that while the "Key Locator" indicator provides valuable insights based on historical data, it does not guarantee future performance or outcomes. Trading involves risks, and it's important to use this tool in conjunction with other analysis methods and risk management strategies. Always consider your financial situation and consult with a financial advisor if necessary before making trading decisions.

Understanding the Features:
Chapter 1: Entries Enhancements
In this chapter, we delve into strategies to refine trading entries, focusing on the multi-timeframe analysis of extreme or decisional order blocks in the High Time Frame timeframe as a key point of interest. We highlight the significance of transitioning to the Low Time Frame chart for observing pivotal shifts in market behavior. By examining these concepts, traders can gain deeper insights into market dynamics and make more informed entries decisions at critical junctures.
Practical Example:
We had an Order Block Extreme on the 1-hour timeframe, and currently, we are on the recommended chart for trade entry, which is the 5-minute timeframe. We are patiently waiting to observe a 5-minute ChoCh in the market to enter a buying position since it's an OB Extreme Demand on the 1-hour timeframe. Here, it's crucial and important to focus on the entry timeframe rather than checking what's happening in the higher timeframe. The indicator facilitates this task as it provides us with real-time perspective and visibility of everything happening in the higher timeframe.
Chapter 2: Inducements HTF
It is important and useful to be aware of the various liquidity points across the different timeframes we use; sometimes, a reliable entry point in the Lower Time Frame (LTF) may be surrounded by inducements. Consequently, this point becomes unreliable, and prior to the arrival of this functionality, such anomalies could not be detected, especially when focusing on the market in the LTF. From now on, there will be no more such issues.
Practical Example:
Suppose we identify an Order Block Extreme on the 5M timeframe, indicating a potential entry level. However, when we switch to the 5M timeframe to look for an entry point, we observe an accumulation of inducements around this Order Block coming from a higher timeframe, whether it's M15 or H1. This suggests a potential weakness in the entry point and significant market liquidity, which will act as a trap zone. Before the introduction of this feature, we might have missed this crucial observation, but now we can detect these anomalies and adjust our strategy accordingly.
The only practical way to see theses confluences is to use this Indicator, see the example below
Chapter 03: High/Low – Bos - ChoCh Markings HTF
The High/Low Markings HTF feature in the MTF External Ranges Analysis - ERA - Orion provides a comprehensive view into the market's heartbeat across different timeframes, right from within the convenience of the Lower Time Frame (LTF). It meticulously highlights pivotal shifts, allowing traders to seamlessly discern market sentiment and anticipate potential price reversals without needing to toggle between multiple charts. This innovation ensures that critical market movements and sentiment across various timeframes are visible and actionable from a single, focused LTF perspective, enhancing decision-making and strategic planning in trading activities.
Understanding High/Low Markings in HTF Analysis
High/Low Markings in High Time Frame (HTF) analysis mark the market's extremities within a given period, pinpointing potential areas for reversals or continuation and delineating crucial support and resistance levels. These markings are not arbitrary but represent significant market responses, serving as essential indicators for traders and analysts to gauge market momentum and sentiment.
The Role of HTF in Market Analysis
HTF analysis extends a comprehensive view over market movements, distinguishing between ephemeral fluctuations and substantial trend shifts. By scrutinizing these high and low points across wider time frames, analysts can unravel the underlying market momentum, enabling more strategic, informed trading decisions.
Identifying High/Low Markings
Identifying these crucial points entails detailed chart analysis over extended durations—daily, weekly, or monthly. The search focuses on the utmost highs and lows within these periods, which are more than mere points on a chart. They are significant market levels that have historically elicited robust market reactions, serving as key indicators for future market behavior.
Real-world Example:

Liquidation Zone [Pt]█ Introduction
The Liquidation Zone indicator is designed to identify key price ranges where significant market activity, such as the liquidation of positions, is likely to occur. These zones are identified based on a specific candlestick pattern, offering insights into potential areas of market sensitivity.
█ Key Features:
► Specific Candlestick Pattern Identification: The indicator identifies liquidation zones by detecting a pattern where a red candle is encased within a series of green candles (in bullish scenarios) or a green candle within red candles (in bearish scenarios). This pattern often suggests a point where the market pauses to liquidate positions before continuing the prevailing trend.
► Market Reaction Points: These liquidation zones represent significant levels where the market previously decided to liquidate or adjust positions, indicating potential areas where price might react upon revisit.
► Integration with Volatility and Volume Data: The script combines these candlestick patterns with volatility (using ATR) and volume data, adding depth to the analysis and increasing the reliability of these zones as potential reaction areas.
► Visual Zone Mapping on Charts: Liquidation Zones are clearly marked on the trading chart for easy identification, aiding traders in visualizing these critical market areas.
█ Possible Use Cases
► Identifying Potential Reaction Areas
Traders can use the Liquidation Zone indicator to pinpoint zones where the market might pause or reverse due to previous liquidation activities. These areas can be key for planning entries, exits, or expecting increased market volatility.
► Enhancing Trading Strategy
Incorporating the analysis of liquidation zones into a trading strategy allows for a more nuanced understanding of market behavior, particularly in recognizing potential areas where price might experience significant support or resistance.
► Complementing Technical Analysis
This indicator is a valuable addition to a technical analyst's toolkit. When used alongside other analysis tools, it provides a more comprehensive view of the market, enhancing decision-making and strategy formulation.
Key Levels | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Key Levels indicator! This indicator allows you to see the key levels on the current chart such as previous day lows / highs, pre-market data, yesterday's close, today's open, pivot points, and much more! It's highly user-friendly with every line being individually customizable and having a wide range of text options.
Features of the new Key Levels indicator :
Today & Yesterday High, Low, Open & Close
Previous 3-10th Day Highs & Lows
Pre-Market Highs & Lows
Previous Month High & Low
High & Low Pivots
Combination Of Same Levels
Wide Customization Options
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Key levels are important areas in a chart where a significant reaction is expected. In this indicator, you can enable up to the previous 10 days highs and lows, yesterday's close / today's open, and the latest pivot points. Key levels generally act like support & resistance. Here are a few examples :
As shown, key levels play an important role determining the current trend and can be useful in identifying potential levels where the market will reverse or breakout.
🚩UNIQUENESS
1. More Key Levels
We believe that past key levels may be as important as current ones. Some of the key-levels indicators do not include them even though strong reactions can happen around them. Thus, our indicator let's you check up to 10 days backwards.
You can select the ones you think that are the most important and just enable them, making the indicator customizable to your liking.
2. Pre-Market Data
With assets that have pre-market data available, it's crucial to analyze it to have a better understanding of the market in regular trading hours. Our indicator will plot pre-market highs and lows, even if your chart is in the regular trading hours only mode. We believe this will be helpful with your analyzing process.
3. Combination
The indicator can dynamically combine same key levels, so you can have a clear look to the chart without lines & text colliding with each other. This would also help you determine stronger key levels as if a key level occured more than a time, it could be a sign that it's a stronger one. An example :
To summarize, using key levels is an essential skill while detecting zones where strong reactions are expected. This indicator provides up to 10 day's high and low levels, and all of them can be individually turned on / off. Traders that believe older key levels can be important and want to look at the whole picture may use this feature. Also for assets that have pre-market data available, the indicator provides pre-market levels as well. Besides all that, High & Low pivots will provide latest key levels so traders can use them in their decisions.

NSDT Custom High and Low LinesFirst, the credit for the original script to plot a High and Low between a certain time goes to developer paaax.
I took that idea, converted it to Pinescript V5, cleaned up the code, and added a few more lines so you can plot different levels based on time of day.
Published open source like the original.
The example shown has:
Blue - plotting from the start of the Futures Asian session to the start of the Futures USA Session. (6:00PM - 9:30AM Eastern)
Yellow - plotting from the start of the Futures Europe session to the start of the Futures USA Session. (3:00AM - 9:30AM Eastern)
Green - plotting from the start of the Futures US Premarket session to the start of the Futures USA Session. (8:00AM - 9:30AM Eastern)
These are great levels to use for breakouts and/or support and resistance.
Combine these levels with the 5 min Open Range levels, as you have some good trades.
Each of the three sessions have individual start and end times that can be modified by the trader, so you can easily mark off important areas for your style of trading.

Sonarlab - Psych/Whole Number Levels Have you ever noticed that prices seem to stick to certain “round numbers” like $1250, $1300, or $1350? It’s not just your imagination — these round numbers can actually act as psychological levels in the market, influencing trader behavior and shaping price action.
But why do traders care so much about these round numbers? It all comes down to our psychological wiring. Humans are naturally drawn to symmetry and simplicity, and round numbers offer a nice, neat way to measure price levels. Plus, these levels often coincide with important milestones or historical levels of support and resistance, giving them even more psychological weight.
To help you take advantage of these psychological levels in your trading, we’ve created a free TradingView indicator that automatically plots round numbers on your chart. Whether you’re a seasoned trader or just starting out, this indicator can give you a valuable edge in the market.
Here’s how the Indicator works:
1. Install the indicator on your TradingView chart. You can find it in the public library by searching for “Round Numbers Indicator”.
2. Select your preferred round numbers and customize the appearance of the indicator to fit your chart. The default settings are already set good.
3. Watch as the round numbers dynamically adjust to the current price action, providing you with a clear view of the market’s psychological levels.
