Criteria Used in the Indicator:
TRENDING (Bullish or Bearish):
Bullish:
The 4H close is above the most recent 4H swing high (pivot high)
The 1H close is above the most recent 1H swing high (pivot high)
→ Both conditions must be true at the same time
Bearish:
The 4H close is below the most recent 4H swing low (pivot low)
The 1H close is below the most recent 1H swing low (pivot low)
→ Both conditions must be true at the same time
CHOPPY (Ranging):
Any other case!
If the close is not above both the last swing highs (not trending up)
AND not below both the last swing lows (not trending down)
Example:
4H is above its last swing high but 1H is not
1H is below its last swing low but 4H is not
Both are in between their swings
→ In these scenarios, the code sets the trend as "CHOPPY" (ranging/sideways).
