Diupdate TheStrat: Failed 2 + 2 Confirmation

TheStrat: Failed-2 + 2 Confirmation (2-2 option)
This indicator spots a classic Strat “failed 2 → 2” sequence on consecutive bars, and fires alerts only when both conditions are met:
Failed-2 bar on the prior candle
Failed 2-Down (F2D): Took the prior low but closed green
Failed 2-Up (F2U): Took the prior high but closed red
By default this is strict (excludes outside bars/3’s). You can toggle to allow 3’s if you prefer a looser definition.
Current bar is a clean “2”
2U = broke prior high only; 2D = broke prior low only (excludes 3’s).
Optional: Require flip so the second bar must reverse direction (F2D→2U for longs, F2U→2D for shorts). Turn this off if you want any 2 after a Failed-2.
What gets plotted
Tiny markers on each Failed-2 as they occur (F2U/F2D).
A label when the combo confirms on the next bar:
Bullish: F2D→2U (or F2D→2 if flip is off) below the bar
Bearish: F2U→2D (or F2U→2) above the bar
Alerts (set from the “Add Alert” dialog)
Failed2 + 2 (Bull): Prior bar was F2D; current bar is a 2 (flip optional).
Failed2 + 2 (Bear): Prior bar was F2U; current bar is a 2 (flip optional).
Inputs
Colors for Failed-2 markers and combo labels
Require flip (on by default) → focuses on true 2-2 reversals
Count outside bars (3) as Failed-2? (off by default) → stricter = fewer, cleaner signals
How to trade it (typical Strat style)
Bullish combo (F2D→2U): Entry on break of the combo bar’s high; risk under its low (or under the prior bar).
Bearish combo (F2U→2D): Entry on break of the combo bar’s low; risk above its high.
First target = prior pivot (“magnitude”), then nearby pivots/BF levels. Improve odds by aligning with time-frame continuity (e.g., day/week in your direction).
Notes / Best practices
Uses barstate.isconfirmed → signals/labels are based on closed bars to avoid repaint.
If you see too many Failed-2 tags, keep outside-bar counting OFF (strict mode).
