Road Map Pro takes the free Road Map further. Every bar gets a type: inside (1), directional up (2U), directional down (2D) or outside (3). A label shows the last three bars as a sequence, like "Road Map: 2U-1-3". Optional alerts tell you when an inside or outside bar prints, and a scan plus a watchlist column find those bars across your list. By default it looks just like the free version.
Pick your own colors: inside, outside, and optional up/down colors are all customizable. It pairs well with hollow-up, filled-down candles: the color shows the bar type, and the hollow or filled candle still shows whether the bar closed up or down.
What's included:
- Road Map Pro study (on/off switches, custom colors, sequence label, optional alerts)
- Two ready-made scans: last bar inside, last bar outside
- A watchlist column showing each symbol's bar type
- Step-by-step install guide (PDF)
