Blackflag FTS

ATR SuperTrend trail with extreme tracking + Fibonacci pullback levels.

What it is

ATR SuperTrend trail with extreme tracking + Fibonacci pullback levels.

Blackflag FTS (Fast Trail System) is a published Pine variant of SuperTrend. It swaps standard true range for a 'modified' true range that adjusts for gaps and recent-bar extremes, then runs the usual ATR-band trailing-stop logic on top of it for slightly earlier flips than vanilla SuperTrend.

On top of the trend line, Blackflag tracks `ex` — the highest high since the last bull flip or the lowest low since the last bear flip — and projects Fibonacci retracement levels from `ex` back toward the trend stop (61.8%, 78.6%, 88.6%). Those Fib lines are intended as pullback entry zones inside the active trend.

Use it the same way as SuperTrend, but treat the Fib levels as 'where to re-enter after a pullback' rather than as standalone reversal signals.
