### How to Use:

To maximize the effectiveness of the Reversal and Breakout Signals tool, follow these steps:

1. 🔧 Set Up Your Preferences:
- Adjust the Indicator Period and Volume Strength Period to match the timeframe of your trading strategy. This fine-tuning allows the indicator to better align with your specific market analysis needs.
- Define the Strong Volume Threshold to distinguish between ordinary and significant volume movements. This helps in identifying breakout or reversal signals with higher confidence.

2. 🎨 Customize Visuals:
- Choose colors for Bullish, Bearish, and Breakout Signals to visually differentiate between different types of market activities. This customization facilitates quicker decision-making while scanning charts.

3. 🔍 Reversal Signals:
- Bullish Reversal: Look for a triangle below the bar indicating a potential upward movement. It's identified when the price dips below the lower level but closes above it, suggesting a rejection of lower prices.
- Bearish Reversal: A triangle above the bar signals a potential downward movement. This occurs when the price spikes above the upper level but closes below, indicating a rejection of higher prices.

4. 📈 Trend and Breakout Signals:
- Diamonds represent breakout signals. A bullish breakout is marked below the bar when the price closes above the upper level, suggesting strong buying pressure. Conversely, a bearish breakout above the bar indicates strong selling pressure as the price closes below the lower level.
- The tool also features a Trend Tracker that highlights the current market trend using the Hull Moving Average (HMA). This can help you stay aligned with the overall market direction for your trades.

By integrating these steps into your trading strategy, the Reversal and Breakout Signals tool can provide actionable insights to help identify potential entry and exit points, enhancing your trading decisions with visual cues and alerts for market reversals and breakouts.

### How It Works:

The core logic revolves around calculating weighted moving averages of high and low prices over a user-defined period, identifying the highest and lowest points within this period to establish potential breakout or breakdown levels while reducing the amount of noise, hence the use of moving averages.

1. Weighted Moving Averages Calculation:

sh = ta.wma(high, len)
sl = ta.wma(low, len)
h = ta.highest(sh, len)
l = ta.lowest(sl, len)

2. Breakout and Reversal Detection:
The script then employs logic to detect bullish and bearish breakouts and reversals based on the closing price's position relative to these levels, combined with volume analysis to confirm the strength of the move.

if not (h < h[1] or h > h[1])
    hstore := h[1]
if not (l < l[1] or l > l[1])
    lstore := l[1]

bullishbreakout := (breakout or ((breakout[1] or breakout[2] or breakout[3] or breakout[4]) and candledir == 1)) and strongvol and not (bullishbreakout[1] or bullishbreakout[2] or bullishbreakout[3])
bearishbreakout := (breakdown or ((breakdown[1] or breakdown[2] or breakdown[3] or breakdown[4]) and candledir == -1)) and strongvol and not (bearishbreakout[1] or bearishbreakout[2] or bearishbreakout[3])

3. Visual Indicators and Alerts:
Visual cues such as triangle shapes for reversals and diamonds for breakouts, along with colored bars, make it easy to spot these opportunities. Additionally, alerts can be set up for these events, ensuring traders can react promptly to potential trading setups.
