📘 FTBBT (Filtered Two Bar Break Through)
Overview
FTBBT is a filtered breakout indicator based on the Two Bar Break Through concept.
It generates Buy and Sell signals when the current bar breaks above or below the previous bar’s high/low, but filters out duplicate signals in the same direction.
This ensures that only the **first breakout** in each sequence is shown, keeping the chart clean and focused.

3. Alerts
