What does this script do?

snapshot

This indicator is a Time-Based Open Range Breakout (ORB) tool. It monitors price action during a specific user-defined time window, identifies the high and low of that period, and then projects those levels forward as actionable breakout zones.

Key Features:

Calculation Modes: You can choose to calculate the range based on Wicks (high/low) or Candle Bodies (open/close) depending on your strategy's sensitivity.

Extension Limit:

To prevent chart clutter, the script includes an "Extension End Time." Once this time is reached, the levels and signals are disabled for the day.

Signal Logic:

Breakout Alerts: It triggers "Buy" or "Sell" labels when a candle closes outside the established range.

Reversal (Second Entry): It has a built-in feature to catch a second breakout if the first move was a "fakeout" and the price reverses to the opposite side.

Timezone Management:

Includes a UTC offset input to ensure the range aligns perfectly with local market opening hours.

How to trade it:

Bullish Breakout: Look for long entries when price closes above the Top Line.

Bearish Breakout: Look for short entries when price closes below the Bottom Line.

Equilibrium: The center line acts as a "fair value" or a target/neutral zone.
