HTF Candles

昨天

This Indicator allows you to display up to 10 higher timeframe candles.
One of them will always be the currently last candle (realtime candle if session is active). So if you choose to display only one candle it will be the current HTF candle. If you choose to display more than 1 candle it will be the current HTF candle plus the number of total candles minus one as historic candles (maximum 9 historic candles).

The goal is to simplify HTF analysis without the need to switch timeframes and detect HTF candle patterns while seeing the lower timeframe develop in realtime.
This is especially useful if you trade concepts like liquidity grabs/sweeps or any candle stick patterns and you want to utilize lower timeframe entries to maximize your risk to reward.


Setting Explanation

General Settings
# of Bars: Choose how many HTF candles you want to be displayed (maximum is 10).
Timeframe: Choose the timeframe that you want to be displayed.
Offset: Put in the number of bars you want to shift the HTF candles to the right (minimum is 0 which will result in a shift 3 bars to the right, to separate it from the current LTF candle). This way you can as well see 2 higher timeframes by applying the indicator twice to your chart and just shifting one timeframe so far to the right that it does not overlap the first HTF.

HTF Lines
Mark Start Of HTF Candles: If checked this will display lines according to the start of your HTF candles.

HTF Label
Show HTF Label: If checked you will see a label above the plotted HTF candles that tells you which timeframe it is.
Automatic Label Positioning: If checked your HTF Label will be 1 ATR above the highest HTF bar. This avoids putting in an absolute number which can be useful if you trade assets with vastly different prices (for example a 10 point distance will not sufficiently separate the label from the candles if trading BTC whereas a 100/500 point difference would put the label out of your screen if trading MNQ). By using the ATR the label will automatically be efficiently separated from the candles but not to far away.

Appearance
Body: Choose fill color for your bullish (left) and bearish (right) HTF candles.
Wick: Choose Wick/Border color for your HTF candles.
HTF Line: Choose color and line style for your HTF Lines (marking the start of a new HTF candle)
Label Position: Adjust the vertical distance of the label in regard to the highest high of the displayed HTF candles (This will be full points, not ticks, and is only used whenever "Automatic Label Positioning" is deselected).
Label Size: Adjust the font size of your HTF label.
