An indicator of levels. The indicator allows setting:

• the hour and minute of the beginning of the "period" zone

• "Period" Hour begin - the hour of the beginning of the period zone
• "Period" Minutes begin - the minute of the beginning of the period zone
• "Period" Hour end - the hour of the end of the period zone
• "Period" Minutes end - the minute of the end of the period zone

Great indicator. There is room for improvement. Alert/push notification could be added in case the price touches the support/resistance line
