Updated Super Cycle Low Finder
How the Indicator Works
1. Inputs
Users can adjust the cycle lengths:
Daily Cycle: Default is 40 days (within 36-44 days).
Weekly Cycle: Default is 26 weeks (182 days, within 22-31 weeks).
Yearly Cycle: Default is 4 years (1460 days).
2. Cycle Low Detection
Function: detect_cycle_low finds the lowest low over the specified period and confirms it with a bullish candle (close > open).
Timeframes: Daily lows are calculated directly; weekly and yearly lows use request.security to fetch data from higher timeframes.
3. Half Cycle Lows
Detected over half the cycle length, plotted to show mid-cycle strength or weakness.
4. Cycle Translation
Logic: Compares the position of the highest high to the cycle’s midpoint.
Output: "R" for right translated (bullish), "L" for left translated (bearish), displayed above bars.
5. Cycle Failure
Flags when a new low falls below the previous cycle low, indicating a breakdown.
6. Visualization
Cycle Lows: Diamonds below bars (yellow for daily, green for weekly, blue for yearly).
Half Cycle Lows: Circles below bars (orange, lime, aqua).
Translations: "R" or "L" above bars in distinct colors.
Failures: Downward triangles below bars (red, orange, purple).

How Cycle Translation Works in the IndicatorKey Logic
Cycle Midpoint: For each cycle (e.g., 40 days for daily), the midpoint is calculated as half the cycle length (e.g., 20 days).
Cycle High: The highest high between two consecutive cycle lows is identified.
Translation Determination:
Right Translated (RT): If the cycle high occurs after the midpoint (fewer bars since the high than the midpoint), it’s bullish.
Left Translated (LT): If the cycle high occurs before the midpoint (more bars since the high than the midpoint), it’s bearish.
