The Swing Traces indicator identifies significant swing points in the market and extends them forward as fading traces.

🔵 CONCEPTS
- Swing Detection – Detects recent upper and lower swing points using sensitivity-based highs and lows.
- Trace Longevity – Each swing projects a “trace” forward in time, gradually fading with age until it expires.
- Trace Size – Each trace is drawn with both a main level and a size extension (half of the bar range) to highlight swing influence.
- Longevity Counters – Swings remain active for a customizable number of bars before fading out or being crossed by price.
- Swing Retest – Labels appear when price retest above/below an active trace extension levels, confirming potential reversal.
🔵 FEATURES
- Adjustable sensitivity length for swing detection.
- Separate longevity controls for upper and lower swing traces.
- Fading gradient coloring for visualizing how long a trace has been active.
- Double-trace plotting: one at the swing level and one offset by trace size.
- Clear BUY/SELL signals when price crosses a swing trace after it has matured.
🔵 HOW TO USE
- Use blue (upper) traces as resistance zones; lime (lower) traces as support zones.
- Watch for fading traces: the longer they persist, the weaker their influence becomes.
- Retest dots (●) confirm when price retest a trace, signaling a potential reversal.
- Shorter sensitivity values detect faster, smaller swings; longer values capture major swing structures.
- Combine with trend indicators or volume to filter false breakout signals.
