Core logic

The Aroon indicator consists of two lines, Aroon Up and Aroon Down, which quantify the time since the last highest high and lowest low within a user-defined lookback period.

Key principles:

* Aroon Up measures how recently a new high has been formed
* Aroon Down measures how recently a new low has been formed
* values range between 0 and 100
* high Aroon Up values indicate strong bullish trend pressure
* high Aroon Down values indicate strong bearish trend pressure

When Aroon Up stays above Aroon Down, bullish trends dominate. When Aroon Down remains above Aroon Up, bearish trends dominate. Readings around the mid-zone suggest weak or non-directional markets.

Visualization

The script plots:

* the Aroon Up line in a separate indicator pane
* the Aroon Down line in a separate indicator pane
* reference levels at 70 (strong trend), 50 (neutral), and 30 (weak trend)

Color-coded lines and dashed threshold levels provide a clear visual structure for trend evaluation.

Use case

This indicator is intended for:

* identifying trend direction and trend strength
* detecting early trend formation phases
* distinguishing trending from ranging market conditions
* filtering trades based on dominant market direction
* supporting trend-following and breakout strategies

It is especially effective when combined with momentum oscillators, price structure, or AI-assisted chart analysis.
