fractal_high_low is an indicator designed for price action traders to automatically identify and plot fractal high and low lines on trading charts. It uses classic Williams fractal logic to detect pivot points where price has reversed or broken structure, confirming fractal highs when a bar’s high is strictly greater than its neighbors, and fractal lows when a bar’s low is strictly lower. Upon confirmation, horizontal lines are drawn from these pivot points and extended forward, providing clear visual references for significant support and resistance levels.

The indicator updates in real time as new bars form and scans all bars on load. It offers configurable fractal periods to capture minor or major swings, controls to limit the number of displayed lines for clarity, and an option to automatically remove lines when price closes through them. Users can customize line color, thickness, and style independently for highs and lows. The indicator is lightweight, drawing each line once to maintain smooth performance even on low timeframes like M1 or M5.

fractal_high_low works on any symbol and timeframe within the cTrader platform and supports markets including Forex, stocks, commodities, indices, and cryptocurrencies. It aids traders in identifying market structure, planning entries, setting stops, and spotting reversal or breakout zones.
