//| SMC Market Structure — Swing H/L + BOS + CHoCH |
//| Author : Yeoh Joo Yam | Display: Lonely Wolf |
//| 2026-07-02 v1.00 |
//| |
//| - Swing High/Low via N-bar fractal (InpSwingN each side). |
//| - BOS (Break of Structure) = close breaks last swing in the |
//| direction of the current trend -> continuation (green). |
//| - CHoCH (Change of Character) = close breaks last swing against |
//| the current trend -> possible reversal (red). |
//| - QML (Quasimodo) = on a CHoCH, dotted level at the left-shoulder |
//| swing (sell=prev high / buy=prev low) = retrace entry level. |
