Cumulative Pivot HighLow

This indicator counts number of higher highs/lows and number of lower highs/lows and calculates trend based on that.

Indicator line shows (sum of higher highs/lows - sum of lower highs/lows) derived from last loopback periods. Indicator is green if last two consecutive highs/lows formed are on higher side. Red if on lower side. (Consecutive numbers can be controlled by parameter direction_threshold)

combineHighsAndLows if unselected shows not cumulative version but last consecutive highs and lows marked in red or green according to the trend.
