This is an indicator to draw a sawtooth wave on the chart.
It can be a useful perspective, as decaying markets tend to oscillate in reverse sawtooth waves, and bullish markets can oscillate in conventional sawtooth waves. With the right inputs, it can be an early warning signal for potential movements.
Something I've noted is that large waves cause a ripple effect and sets the frequency for the market until a change occurs. Sawtooth waves may help in capturing ripple waves.
Useful inputs are: - Average True Range as wave height (amplitude) - Periodicity of market as wave duration (frequency) (Inputs will change the wave from conventional to reverse)
