S/D Boring-Explosive (Non-Repaint)

S/D Boring-Explosive Zone Detector (Non-Repaint)
📊 Overview
This indicator automatically identifies high-probability Supply and Demand zones using the "Boring-Explosive" pattern - a proven price action concept where consolidation (boring candles) precedes explosive moves. The script provides clean, non-repainting zones with intelligent retest alerts for optimal entry timing.
🎯 Core Concept: The Boring-Explosive Pattern
What is a Boring Candle?

A candle with wicks larger than its body
Represents consolidation, indecision, or accumulation/distribution
Often marks institutional order flow areas

What is an Explosive Candle?

A candle significantly larger than the preceding boring candle (default: 50% bigger)
Represents a breakout with strong momentum
Confirms the zone as a valid supply/demand area

The Pattern:

Price creates a boring candle (consolidation)
Within 3 bars, an explosive move occurs
The boring candle's range becomes a supply/demand zone
Future retests of this zone offer high-probability entries

✨ Key Features
🎨 Automatic Zone Detection

Demand Zones (Green): Form after bullish explosive moves - act as support
Supply Zones (Red): Form after bearish explosive moves - act as resistance
Non-Repainting: All zones confirmed on closed candles only
Customizable Size: Adjust explosive multiplier to filter zone quality

🔔 Smart Retest Alerts

Multiple Entry Signals: Get alerts each time price retests a valid zone
Time-Based Filtering: Configurable minimum time between retests (default: 60 min) prevents alert spam
Visual Labels: Clear "RETEST ▲" and "RETEST ▼" labels at retest points
Respect-Based Logic: Labels only appear when price enters zone and closes outside (showing respect)

📖 How to Use
For Day Traders:

Set "Min Minutes Between Retests" to 15-30 minutes
Use on 5min or 15min charts
Enable HTF zones (60min) for additional confluence
Take entries on retest labels aligned with HTF zones

For Swing Traders:

Set "Min Minutes Between Retests" to 60-240 minutes
Use on 1H or 4H charts
Enable HTF zones (Daily or Weekly)
Look for zones that hold multiple retests

Entry Strategy:

Wait for zone to form (boring + explosive pattern)
Wait for price to return to the zone
Enter when retest label appears (price entered zone and closed outside)
Place stop loss beyond the zone
Zone remains valid until price closes through it

🎓 Trading Logic
Demand Zone Retest (Long Entry):

Price drops into green zone (low touches zone)
Candle closes ABOVE the zone top
Shows buyers defended support → Entry signal

Supply Zone Retest (Short Entry):

Price rises into red zone (high touches zone)
Candle closes BELOW the zone bottom
Shows sellers defended resistance → Entry signal
