### 📌 Notes

* Use the signal alerts (`goLong`, `goShort`, `longExit`, etc.) to automate trade execution.
* Combine with SmartMoney zones, Premium/Discount levels, or other indicators for confirmation.
* Filter band color is useful to avoid signals in ranging or choppy markets.

Would you like an additional section that describes how to trade using this indicator in conjunction with Premium and Discount Zones?
