Key Levels: Volume Profile POC

Professional Intraday Key Levels (CST)
This is a comprehensive, institutional-grade Pine Script indicator designed for intraday traders (Futures, Stocks, Options) operating in the Central Time Zone. It automatically plots the most significant support and resistance levels used by algorithms and professional desks.

1. Core Levels Monitored
Daily Levels: Previous Day High (PDH), Low (PDL), Open, Close, and the 50% Midpoint (Equilibrium).

Volume Profile POC: Unlike standard indicators that use a simple average, this calculates the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) of the previous day to determine the true "Fair Value" or Point of Control. Plotted with a thicker, distinct purple line.

Weekly Magnets: Previous Week High (PWH) and Low (PWL), which often act as major targets for breakouts or reversals.

Pre-Market Data: Tracks the High and Low established between 03:00 AM – 08:30 AM CST.

Opening Range (OR): Automatically captures the High and Low of the first 60 minutes of the regular session (08:30 AM – 09:30 AM CST).

2. Smart Visualization Features
Anti-Overlap Labels: If two levels (e.g., Pre-Market High and Previous Day High) are within 0.02% of each other, the script automatically merges them into a single label (e.g., "PDH & Pre-Market High") to prevent chart clutter.

Source Tracing: Trace lines extend backward from the current price level to the exact candle where that High or Low was formed (for Pre-Market and Opening Range levels), giving you instant context on when the level was created.

Clean Readability: Labels are displayed in bold, solid text without price numbers, ensuring a clean chart that focuses on level identification rather than data overload.

3. Technical Precision
Time Zone Locked: Hardcoded to America/Chicago to ensure Pre-Market and Opening Range calculations remain accurate regardless of your local computer settings.

Non-Repainting: Daily and Weekly levels are locked using closed-candle data (lookahead_on), ensuring lines do not shift during the trading day.

Buffer Safe: Optimized drawing logic prevents historical buffer errors, even on lower timeframes (1m/5m).

4. Customization
Toggle Everything: Every single level has an individual "Show/Hide" checkbox in the settings.

Label Sizing: Adjustable text size (Tiny to Huge) and offset positioning.

Compact Mode: Option to switch between full names ("Previous Day High") and abbreviations ("PDH").
