Bands · range rails & Trendline

Bands (Y) frame the range: inner, outer, and wider gold rails, plus gold ● marks. Trendline (N) adds a lime mid line and gold/red guides—on by default on the web chart. Neither replaces the Gate and neither fires alone.

Place in the chain
Structure overview → Swing (bone) → SMC (flow) → Patterns (shape) → Bands + Trendline. Valid read: Swing + SMC aligned; Bands/Trendline answer “where in the range?”
When to open
After StructPick lights a pair, press Y to compare rails (often auto-lit when reversal side is Y). N Trendline stays on unless you hide it.

With breakouts
Bands answer which side of the rails price favors; Trendline gives the lime + gold/red guide trio. Z keeps POC + BT on and toggles Fib/Canvas. Gold boxes follow X and start hidden. How to use: 3.5 Z. Y and Z are separate—see Shortcuts.

Y = rails only. Z = reversal-leg dots + center-mark links. N = Trendline (default on).
