This indicator by its very nature backpaints by default, meaning that the displayed components are offset in the past.

The notations HH, HL, LH, and LL you can see on the labels are defined as follows:
🔶 SETTING
Length: Sensitivity of the swing high/low detection, with lower values returning the maximum/minimum of shorter-term price variations.
