The MTF Candles [Arslan] indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders who want to visualize higher timeframe (HTF) candles directly on their current chart. Built with flexibility and precision in mind, this Pine Script indicator displays up to six higher timeframe candles, complete with customizable styling, sweeps, midpoints, fair value gaps (FVGs), volume imbalances, and trace lines. It’s perfect for multi-timeframe analysis, helping traders identify key levels, market structure, and potential trading opportunities with ease.
Key Features
- Multi-Timeframe Candles: Display up to six higher timeframe candles (e.g., 5m, 15m, 30m, 4H, 1D, 1W) on your chart, with configurable timeframes and visibility.
- Sweeps Detection: Identify liquidity sweeps (highs/lows) with customizable line styles, widths, and colors, plus optional alerts for confirmed bullish or bearish sweeps.
- Midpoint Lines: Plot the midpoint (average of high and low) of the previous HTF candle, with customizable color, width, and style for enhanced market analysis.
- Fair Value Gaps (FVGs): Highlight gaps between non-adjacent candles, indicating potential areas of interest for price action.
- Volume Imbalances: Detect and display volume imbalances between adjacent candles, aiding in spotting significant price levels.
- Trace Lines: Connect HTF candle open, close, high, and low prices to their respective chart bars, with customizable styles and optional price labels.
- Custom Daily Open Times: Support for custom daily candle open times (Midnight, 8:30, or 9:30) to align with specific market sessions.
- Dynamic Labels: Show timeframe names, remaining time until the next HTF candle, and interval labels (e.g., day of the week for daily candles) with adjustable positions and sizes.
-Highly Customizable: Fine-tune candle appearance, spacing, padding, and visual elements to suit your trading style.
The indicator renders HTF candles as boxes (bodies) and lines (wicks) on the right side of the chart, with each timeframe offset for clarity. It dynamically updates candles in real-time, tracks their highs and lows, and displays sweeps and midpoints when conditions are met. FVGs and volume imbalances are calculated based on candle relationships, and trace lines link HTF candle levels to their originating bars on the chart.
Sweep Logic
- A bearish sweep occurs when the current candle’s high exceeds the previous candle’s high, but the close is below it.
- A bullish sweep occurs when the current candle’s low falls below the previous candle’s low, but the close is above it.
- Sweeps are visualized as horizontal lines and can trigger alerts when confirmed on the next candle.
Midpoint Logic
- A midpoint line is drawn at the average of the previous HTF candle’s high and low, extending until the next HTF candle forms.
- Useful for identifying potential support/resistance or mean reversion levels.
Imbalance Detection
- FVGs: Identified when a candle’s low is above the next-but-one candle’s high (or vice versa), indicating a price gap.
- Volume Imbalances: Detected between adjacent candles where the body of one candle doesn’t overlap with the next, signaling potential liquidity zones.

O indicador é espetacular e funciona perfeitamente. Fica uma dica aqui para a proxima atualização: 1-O contorno InbullBorder do candle não altera para a cor selecionada. 2- Quando vc escolhe apenas um time frame para for na tela, o indicador divide a tela ao meio e mesmo que vc arrastar o espaço da tela para o canto, ao mudar o tempo gráfico ele volta a centralizar, ele não segura a configuração da tela, é tipo um modo automatico, a nao ser que vc deixa fixar escala ativada em preferências, não sei se é proposital quando foi criado ou é algum bug no meu mt5. 3-Adicione a função pra aumentar ou diminuir o espaço entre os candles, nao os grupos de candles nem a largura que essa ja funciona perfeitamente. Obrigado por disponibilizar o indicador ok. Sucesso.
