Tick Gap Indicator

The purpose of this simple indicator is to paint bear bars with a bull tick gap, and bull bars with a bear tick gap. The tick gap often offers some support/resistance, yet not always, because those trapped BTC bulls/ STC bears want to get out BE after they were trapped. I also set the wick < 1 pt, which means they were not even getting a solid 1 point scalp. Always context first! Don't scalp this blindly. It's more like a "good to know" info. ‎
