Dollar Ladder Ruler

An automatic horizontal price ladder overlay that draws clean, evenly spaced dollar levels around the current price to highlight psychological support/resistance zones and common reaction areas.
Built specifically for intraday traders, scalpers, and options traders (SPY / QQQ / large caps) who rely on whole/half dollar magnets and key dollar increments.
No manual drawing required — levels update automatically as price moves.
Level hierarchy
• $0.50 → thin white dashed
• $1.00 → thin white solid
• $2.50 → yellow dashed
• $5.00 → thick yellow
• $10.00 → thicker yellow
• $50.00 → thickest possible (major macro level)
Higher increments visually stand out more so you instantly see:
major reaction zones
bounce/rejection areas
breakout magnets
key scalping targets
Why this helps
• Highlights psychological whole/half dollar behavior
• Cleaner than manually drawing lines
• Great for 1m–5m charts
• Perfect for 0DTE / day trading
• Automatically centers around current price
• Lightweight and fast
