-- IQOW Stochastic PSAR v1.0.1
--
-- Combines the Stochastic oscillator (14, 3, 3) with the Parabolic SAR, as in
-- the related article. The Stochastic cross out of an extreme zone gives the
-- timing; the SAR confirms that its dots are on the matching side of price.
--
-- The Stochastic follows IQ Option's built-in Stochastic Oscillator: the close
-- against the highest high and the lowest low of the %K period. Version 1.0.1
-- (9 October 2026) changed this from the highest and lowest close; the inputs,
-- periods and levels are unchanged.
--
-- HIGHER: %K crosses above %D after %K was at or below 20 on the previous
--         candle, and the Parabolic SAR dot is below the close.
-- LOWER:  %K crosses below %D after %K was at or above 80 on the previous
--         candle, and the Parabolic SAR dot is above the close.
--
-- Markers use the previous completed candle: they appear after the next candle
-- opens and are shifted back one bar onto the candle that qualified.
-- Educational chart tool only. It does not place trades, choose an expiry,
-- predict outcomes, or guarantee results. Test on a Practice balance first.
