Support and Resistance MTF

Overview
Support & Resistance (MTF) is a MetaTrader 5 indicator that automatically identifies swing highs (resistance) and swing lows (support) across up to three timeframes. It merges nearby levels to reduce clutter, adapts zone width to market volatility using ATR, and offers optional alerts when price breaks or retests those levels.

Features

• Multi-timeframe pivot detection
  Identify pivots on the current chart plus two higher timeframes using a configurable pivot length.

• Merge-distance grouping
  Automatically combine levels closer than a specified number of points to highlight the most significant zones.

• ATR-based zone width
  Dynamically size support/resistance bands by multiplying ATR by a user-defined factor.

• Style options
  Choose between precision lines or colored boxes; customize colors, line style, width, and label placement.

• Break & retest alerts
  Detect price breaks or retests (by wick or by close) and mark them with on-chart arrows plus optional popup, sound, or email notifications.

• Dynamic labels
  Each level shows its source timeframe and exact price.

• Performance-optimized
  Efficient looping and array handling keep CPU load minimal.
