### **How It Works**
**Directional Trend Line** analyzes the **CCI** using either a dynamic or user-defined period.
#### **Trend Logic:**
* When **CCI > 0**, the **TrendUp line** is drawn
➤ Plotted below the current candle's low, with offset
* When **CCI < 0**, the **TrendDown line** is drawn
➤ Plotted above the current candle's high, with offset
* If price **confirms the movement** (e.g., `Close < Open` in an uptrend),
➤ The line **holds the previous value**, reducing noise and avoiding premature flips
This allows you to:
* Visually distinguish between buyer/seller dominance zones
* Receive timely trend shift signals
* Efficiently use the indicator for trade entry, exit, and position tracking
