What this script says

Fractal Pitchfork is an indicator drawn over the price chart.

It remembers `points` from one bar to the next.

It calculates `f` as the fractals (periods 2) and `points` as `points.keep_last(3)`.

On each bar, it checks whether `f.up` and, if so, adds `(bar.index - 2, high[2])` to `points`.

On each bar, it checks whether `f.down` and, if so, adds `(bar.index - 2, low[2])` to `points`.

On each bar, it checks whether the number of `points` is 3 and, if so, draws a pitchfork, draws a polygon and draws an arrow.
