Drawdown Visualizer

The Drawdown Visualizer tracks the percentage decline from all-time highs, providing valuable insights into market corrections and potential buying opportunities.

Key Features:

1) Real-Time Drawdown Tracking: The indicator continuously calculates and displays the current percentage drawdown from the all-time high price, color-coded from green (minimal drawdown) to red (severe drawdown) for instant visual feedback.
2) Maximum Drawdown Detection: Permanently tracks and displays the maximum historical drawdown encountered during the analyzed period, helping traders understand worst-case scenarios.
3) Statistical Analysis: Calculates and displays three important statistical measures:
* Average Drawdown: The mean value of all drawdowns recorded
* Median Drawdown: The middle value in the sorted list of all drawdowns, providing insight
into typical decline patterns
* Normal Drawdown Range: Visualizes the expected range of typical drawdowns based on
statistical standard deviation

Practical Applications:

1) Risk Management: Understand typical and extreme drawdowns to set appropriate stop-loss levels
2) Market Context: Gain perspective on whether current corrections are normal or exceptional
3) Entry Point Analysis: Identify potential buying opportunities when drawdowns reach statistical extremes
