OPEN-SOURCE SCRIPT
Fork Handles by @treypeng
Candle based indicator that shows swing highs and lows (pivots).
It draws an up or down arrow for simple three candle 'single' swings.
For stronger five candle 'double' swings, it colours the candle. Good for highlighting stronger reversals.
Both of these stylings can be toggled on/off individually.
Default colours
Swing HIGH on an UP candle: bright green
Swing HIGH on an DOWN candle: bright red
Swing LOW on an UP candle: blue
Swing LOW on an DOWN candle: brown
Double swings are grey or white.
Regular candles are just kept to your own default colours as specified in the chart settings.
👏 for anyone who gets the 'fork handles' joke reference.
