2. Identify Squeeze:

3. Set Targets and Stop Loss:
- Based on the trend and squeeze conditions, it calculates entry points, target levels, and stop loss levels for trades.
4. Visual Indicators:
- Plots the Supertrend line, Bollinger Bands, Keltner Channels, and shapes to indicate market conditions (e.g., squeeze on/off, trend changes).
5. Trigger Alerts:
