Swing Indicator
This indicator provides some base code for looping over data to identify swings in price action. Full code commentary can be found on the backtest rookies website.
The indicator shall allow users to "analyse" a recent historical candle to detect whether it was a swing point. This will work by inputting a number to select which historical candle you want to check. The indicator will then check all candles after it until the current candle. It shall also check the same amount of candles before it. If the candle analysed has the lowest low or highest high in the complete range, then we know it was a swing point.
