2/ Indicator Setting - Trend Focus

Cup Shape Coefficient: Adjusts the sensitivity for recognizing the curvature of the cup pattern. A higher value requires a more perfect "U" shape, while a lower value allows for more variation in the cup's shape.

Maximum Ratio of Handle to Cup Depth: Sets the maximum allowed ratio between the depth of the handle and the depth of the cup. This helps in filtering out patterns where the handle is disproportionately deep compared to the cup.

Maximum Difference Between Cup Extremes: Specifies the maximum allowable difference in the highs (for a bullish pattern) or lows (for a bearish pattern) of the cup's rim. This ensures the cup's rim is relatively flat.

ZigZag Depth: Determines how far back (in bars) the ZigZag algorithm looks to find significant highs and lows. Increasing this value makes the ZigZag lines smoother and less responsive to minor price changes.

ZigZag Deviation: Sets the minimum price movement required to form a new ZigZag line. A higher deviation filters out smaller price fluctuations, making the ZigZag lines represent only significant price movements.

ZigZag Backstep: The number of bars the algorithm looks back to check if the current ZigZag line remains valid or if it needs adjustment based on new price movements.

SL & TP (Stop Loss & Take Profit) Settings:

ATR Period for SL Shift: Defines the period over which the Average True Range (ATR) is calculated, used for determining the stop loss distance.
SL Shift Coefficient (from ATR): Multiplies the ATR to set the stop loss distance from the entry point, allowing for volatility-based stop loss placement.
TP Coefficient (from SL): Determines the take profit distance as a multiple of the stop loss distance, helping to maintain a consistent risk-reward ratio.
