A hand-drawn line could never produce an alert, for two independent reasons:
- cluster_levels dropped any single-member group scoring under 8, and a manual
line weighs 1 on 5m rising to 4 on 1h. A lone drawn line was discarded before
it ever reached the alert engine.
- Even had it survived, the engine gates on confluence score, and the threshold
is 28.
Both are wrong for a drawn line specifically. Weight exists to rank levels
nobody asked for; a line you drew by hand is an explicit statement that this
price matters, so it survives clustering on its own and bypasses the score
threshold. Everything else still has to earn its place.
Alerts naming a drawn line say so — "BEARISH LINE" with the line's label rather
than "BEARISH ZONE ... confluence 1", since knowing which drawing to go look at
is the actionable part. A line that happens to coincide with other levels still
reports as a zone, with the line named alongside.
Verified against the running app: a line placed at the current price now forms a
cluster, where before it was discarded outright.
