Daily High/Low Close Breakout - GOLD

### **Daily High/Low Close Breakout Indicator**

This indicator is a powerful tool for identifying potential breakout opportunities based on the previous day's price action. It's built on a unique time-based logic that defines key support and resistance levels for the trading day.

### **How the Indicator Works**

The indicator operates in two main phases:

1. **Calculation Period (00:00 to 16:30 Tehran Time):** The indicator first observes the price action from the start of the day until 16:30. During this time, it records the highest and lowest **closing prices** of all candles. The chart background is shaded gray to visually mark this period.

2. **Trading Period (16:30 to 16:30 the next day):** At 16:30, the highest and lowest close levels are finalized and drawn as horizontal lines. These levels then become the primary breakout zones for the next 24 hours. The indicator will generate signals whenever the price crosses these lines.

### **Trading Signals**

The indicator uses a simple and effective crossover logic for its signals:

* **BUY Signal:** A signal is generated when a candle's closing price **crosses above** the high close line.
* **SELL Signal:** A signal is generated when a candle's closing price **crosses below** the low close line.
