### How It Works

1. **Session Tracking**: The indicator identifies your pre-market session and marks the high and low with labeled lines (PH/PL)

2. **Breakout Signal**: Once the market opens, it monitors for close prices above/below the pre-market levels and alerts you with "BO ↑" or "BO ↓"

3. **Retest Confirmation**: After a breakout, it tracks retests and labels "RF" when the retest fails to reach the opposite extreme, confirming trade direction

4. **Large Move Detection**: Simultaneously monitors for significant point moves that exceed your symbol-specific thresholds

5. **Alert Triggers**: Get real-time alerts for:
- Breakout Up/Down
- Any Breakout
- Large Move events

### Alert Conditions

The indicator includes four alert conditions:
- **Breakout Up Alert**: Price closes above pre-market high
- **Breakout Down Alert**: Price closes below pre-market low
- **Any Breakout Alert**: Either breakout condition triggers
- **Large Move Alert**: Point movement exceeds threshold for current symbol

### Ideal For

- ✅ Day traders (breakout/retest strategies)
- ✅ Futures traders (Gold, Oil, Stock Index Contracts)
- ✅ Intraday scalpers (first 5-minute analysis)
- ✅ Swing traders (session-based levels)
- ✅ Multi-symbol traders (independent thresholds per symbol)
