The "Swing Catcher" indicator identifies swing points on a daily time frame by combining Simple Moving Averages (SMA) for trend direction, Momentum to gauge price strength, and Average True Range (ATR) to confirm volatility. It marks potential swing highs and lows, validates them using trend and momentum alignment, and filters out noise with ATR-based volatility checks. This makes it an effective tool for spotting and trading significant price movements.
