⚙️ How It Works
Core Trend Logic
The script calculates the median price of Heiken Ashi highs and lows.
SuperTrend bands (up and dn) are adjusted using ATR.

A bullish or bearish state is determined based on price closing above or below these bands.
Signal Generation
Buy Signal: Trend flips from bearish (-1) to bullish (+1).
Sell Signal: Trend flips from bullish (+1) to bearish (-1).
Signals can be plotted as circles, labels, or both depending on configuration.

MTF SuperTrend
Parallel SuperTrend calculation on a higher timeframe (user-selected).
Detects bullish flip (HTF ↑) or bearish flip (HTF ↓).
Highlights the chart background with higher timeframe color filters when enabled.

Debug Mode
Turns on background shading to indicate whether Heiken Ashi or regular candles are in use.
Helps verify internal logic for advanced users.

🎨 Visualization Example
Green Highlight / Fill → Active bullish trend
Red Highlight / Fill → Active bearish trend
Light Blue / Gray Highlights → Higher timeframe bullish / bearish alignment
