STRUCTURAL HEAT ZONES

Participation Intensity Map

--------------------------------------------------

See where price fights. See where it ignores.

Most support/resistance tools draw lines where price WAS.

Structural Heat Zones answers: Does the market actually CARE about this level?

--------------------------------------------------

HEAT INTENSITY SCORING (0 to 100)

The indicator analyzes swing clustering and assigns a heat score:

- Red zones (80 to 100 heat) = Strongest structural participation

- Orange zones (60 to 80 heat) = Active structural zone

- Yellow zones (40 to 60 heat) = Moderate interest

- Blue zones (below 40 heat) = Weak structure

Higher heat = more swings clustered = more market attention.

--------------------------------------------------

ACCEPTANCE VS REJECTION TRACKING

For each structural heat zone, the indicator tracks price behavior:

- ACCEPTANCE = Price closes inside the zone (support behavior)

- REJECTION = Price leaves long wicks at the zone (resistance behavior)

This tells you whether a zone is likely to HOLD or REVERSE.

--------------------------------------------------

MARKET ENGAGEMENT ANALYSIS

The system measures:

- Candle touches (how often price visits each zone)

- Closes inside (acceptance rate)

- Wick rejections (rejection rate)

- Configurable lookback period

Low engagement = weak zone. High engagement = structural heat zone.

--------------------------------------------------

VISUAL INTENSITY MAPPING

- Color-coded zones by heat score (red = hottest)

- Halo extensions for rejection visualization

- Data labels showing: Heat / Participation / Acceptance / Rejection scores

- Auto-cleaning (zones redraw automatically)

- Optional swing high/low arrows

--------------------------------------------------

KEY PARAMETERS

- Swing Strength: Pivot sensitivity (higher = fewer swings)

- Lookback Bars: How far back to detect swings

- ATR Period: For adaptive radius calculation

- Cluster ATR Radius: How close swings must be to cluster

- Max Cluster Height ATR: Rejects zones wider than this

- Zone Extension ATR: Halo size for rejection detection

- Minimum Swings In Zone: Minimum cluster size

- Minimum Heat Score: Only show zones above this

- Behavior Lookback Bars: Period for engagement tracking

- Max Zones: Maximum zones displayed

- Zone / Halo Opacity: Visual transparency

--------------------------------------------------

USE CASES

- Find genuine structural heat zones (high heat + high engagement)

- Distinguish acceptance zones from rejection zones

- Avoid low-heat, low-participation areas

- Identify structural clusters for entry and exit placement

- Confluence with trend indicators or order flow

--------------------------------------------------

TECHNICAL NOTES

- Overlay indicator (draws on price chart)

- Works on any timeframe and symbol

- Auto-adapts to volatility via ATR

- No repainting (swings are historical)
