Boa ZigZag Arrows: Fractal Labels and Repainting Pivots

Summary

The document describes a ZigZag indicator variant that displays turning points as fractal labels. It notes that these labels repaint in a way similar to the peaks identified by the standard ZigZag indicator, so displayed turning points can change as subsequent price data arrives.

This repainting behavior limits how the indicator can be interpreted: historical labels may look more definitive than they would have appeared in real time. The document offers no rules for entering or exiting trades, no parameter details, and no performance or backtest evidence. It is therefore useful mainly as a brief explanation of the indicator’s presentation and a caution about relying on its labels as contemporaneous signals.

Key ideas

• The indicator presents ZigZag turning points using fractal labels.
• Its labels repaint similarly to peaks in the standard ZigZag.
• Repainting means historical turning points may not represent signals available in real time.
• The document provides no trading rules or performance evidence.
