Multi-Timeframe Candles HistogramsAt some community members' requests, I have built on the original code to make it a single indicator with the option for users to check off which timeframes they want to be shown. Choices are 1-hour, daily, weekly, and monthly.
I couldn't figure out how to separate each timeframe into its own histogram, so this is the best I can offer at the moment. If any community member wants to take a crack at it, be my guest.
Colors are customizable.
If you have a paid TW account, you can lay it down twice and put the hour and daily on one and the weekly and monthly on the other.
That said, I hope you enjoy this version of this indicator.

BUY/SELL Timeframe ContinuityTime frame continuity refers to the alignment of price trends across multiple time frames. This means that the price movement is showing a consistent trend (either up or down) on various timeframes, like the 5-minute, 30-minute, hourly, and daily charts.
Why is it important?
Confirms Trend Strength: When multiple timeframes align, it indicates a strong and sustained trend.
Risk Management: Trading in the direction of the aligned trend can reduce risk.
This indicator checks if the current price of a selected timeframe is above or below its opening price. A buy/sell signal appears the second all bullish timeframes align (buy) or all bearish timeframes align. You can choose to paint the candles when the buy/sell conditions happen. You can select up to 10 different timeframes.
NOTE: With this indicator I prefer timeframes 15m, 30m, 1H, 4H, D, 5D, W - Together these timeframes are great for short-term trends on any stock.

MultiTimeframe Candles for Full Time Frame Continuity AnalysisIn honor of Rob Smith (R.I.P), the creator of TheStrat, I decided to try to figure out how to make an indicator that graphically shows you the price levels and movements on higher timeframes.
The goal is to have full timeframe continuity with TheStrat. Ideally when you are analyzing the lower time, you want it to be in continuity with the higher time frames.
How to Use It:
All you have to do is put on the indicator the number of times you desire.
So if you want the hourly, the daily, the weekly, and the monthly, then you have to just put on the indicator 4 times--once for each timeframe.
Then you go into each one you put on the chart and go to the drop down menu where you choose the timeframe you want displayed.
In the future, I'll do a video to show you exactly how that works, but I think you guys can figure it out.
The Strat with TFC & Combo DashIntroduction:
This indicator is designed to implement "The Strat" trading strategy combined with a Timeframe Continuity Dashboard and Combo Dashboard. The Strat is a robust trading methodology that relies on price action and candlestick formations to make trading decisions. This script helps traders to identify specific bar types such as Inside Bars (1), Continuation Up Bars (2u), Continuation Down Bars (2d), and Outside Bars (3) across multiple timeframes. It visually highlights these bar types on the chart and provides a comprehensive dashboard displaying the current state of the selected timeframes.
Key Features:
Timeframe Continuity Dashboard: Displays arrows and bar types for up to four selected timeframes.
Strat Combos Dashboard: Shows the previous and current bar types to easily spot trading setups.
Customizable Colors and Labels: Options to personalize the colors and labels for Inside and Outside bars.

Timeframe Continuity Oscillator [TFO]This indicator is used to visualize timeframe continuity - a core concept of "The Strat" - along with some added logic for potential range limiters.
When discussing timeframe continuity, typically we are evaluating several timeframes to see if price is trading above or below the current open of each respective timeframe. If we are concerned with the 15m, 4h, and 1D for example, and price is trading above the current open of each of those timeframes, we can say that we have full timeframe continuity (FTFC) up. Conversely, if price is trading below the current open of each of those timeframes, we can say that we have FTFC down.
We can visualize this with an oscillator of sorts, where the zero line is anchored to the open price of the highest timeframe that we're concerned with. Using the prior example, this would be the 1D timeframe. As long as price is above the current 1D open, it is impossible to have FTFC down; and as long as price is below the current 1D open, it is impossible to have FTFC up. This is why we base the oscillator's values off of the highest timeframe's open (the values are simply how far price has traded from this open) - any value greater than zero tells us that there is potential to have FTFC up, and any value less than zero tells us that there is potential to have FTFC down.
There are a few ways we chose to visualize this data. First, we can choose the "Binary" option which simply uses one solid bullish color above the zero line, and one solid bearish color below the zero line.
Second, we can choose the "Gradient" option to help describe whether we have FTFC up or down. Values above the zero line will be a mix of the bullish color and mid color, where the mid color indicates no timeframe continuity up and the bullish color indicates FTFC up - sort of like a color spectrum of timeframe continuity to describe how many timeframes are in agreement. Similarly, values below the zero line will be a mix of the bearish color and the mid color, where the mid color again indicates no timeframe continuity down and the bearish color indicates FTFC down.
Lastly, we can choose the "FTFC Only" option which will only color the histogram bars as bullish if there is FTFC up, or bearish if there is FTFC down.
One more feature that we added is these upper and lower bands that aim to help describe the potential upper and lower limits that price may travel, relative to the highest timeframe's open. This is done by taking the standard deviation of some defined lookback period, for example, 2 standard deviations of the previous 10 weeks, assuming 1W is the highest timeframe enabled.
The concept is similar to that of an ADR (average daily range) as it can be used to estimate maximum range extensions for the largest timeframe. The arrows you see are plotted once the value exceeds either band - alerts can be enabled for these events as well through any alert() function call.
The Strat with Continuity [starlord_xrp]This indicator shows entry and exit points for The Strat as well as potential setups. It also has full time frame continuity detection.
The Strat [LuxAlgo]The Strat indicator is a full toolkit regarding most of the concepts within "The Strat" methodology with features such as candle numbering, pivot machine gun (PMG) highlighting, custom combo highlighting, and various statistics included.
Alerts are also included for the detection of specific candle numbers, custom combos, and PMGs.

🔶 USAGE
This script allows users with an understanding of The Strat to quickly highlight elements such as candle numbers, pivot machine guns, and custom combos. The usage for these concepts is given in the sub-sections below.
🔹 Candle Numbers
The Strat assigns a number to individual candles, this number is determined by the current candle position relative to the precedent candle, these include:
Number 1 - Inside bar, occurs when the previous candle range engulfs the current one.
Number 2 Up - Upside Directional Bar, occurs when the current price high breaks the previous high while the current low is lower than the previous high.
Number 2 Down - Downside Directional Bar, occurs when the current price low breaks the previous low while the current high is higher than the previous low.
Number 3 - Outside bar, occurs when the current candle range engulfs the previous one.
The script can highlight the number of a candle by using labels but can also style candles by depending on the candle number. Inside bars (1) only have their candle wick highlighted, directional bars (2) (-2) only have their candle body highlighted. Outside bars have their candle range highlighted.
Note that downside directional bars are highlighted with the number -2.
Users can see the total amount of times a specific candle number is detected on the historical data on the dashboard available within the settings, as well as the number of times a candle number is detected relative to the total amount of detected candle numbers expressed as a percentage.
It is also possible to see the current candle numbers returned by multiple timeframes on the dashboard.
🔹 Searching For Custom Combos
Combos are made of a sequence of two or more candle numbers. These combos can highlight multiple reversals/continuation scenarios. Various common combos are documented by The Strat community.
This script allows users to search for custom combos by entering them on the Combo user setting field.
When a user combo is found, it is highlighted on the chart as a box highlighting the combo range.
🔹 Pivot Combos
It can be of interest to a user to display the combo associated with a pivot high/low. This script will highlight the location of pivot points on the chart and display its associated combo by default. These are based on the Pivot Combo lookback and not displayed in real-time.
Users can see on the dashboard the combos associated with a pivot high/low, these are ranked by frequency.
🔹 Pivot Machine Gun (PMG)
Pivot Machine Guns (PMG)s describe the scenario where a single price variation breaks the value of multiple past successive higher lows/lower highs. This can highlight a self-exciting behavior, where even more past successive higher lows/lower highs get broken.
Users can select the minimum sequence length of successive higher lows/lower highs required for a PMG to be detected, as well the amount of these successive higher lows/lower highs that must be broken.
2U2DFlipHappy to contribute to the community request for indicators that TheStrat community find useful, I have published the requested 2U/2D flip indicator with built in 'alert' feature.
Adding this indicator to your chart will allow you to use the awesome Tradingview 'alert' functionality to register an alerts when either of these two conditions are true:
- When the candle colour of TheStrat 2U green candle turns RED
- When the candle colour of TheStrat 2D red candle turns GREEN
The significance of this event is an indication that price might have reversed and is more applicable on higher timeframes .
Explanation of 'TheStrat' trading technique
‘TheStrat’ technique works off the basis of labelling whether the focus candle did or did not break any of the previous candles high or low values. There are three possible label definitions; either a 1 candle, 2 candle or a 3 candle.
1 bar (inside) - If price movement on the new candle remains within the high and low of previous candle.
3 bar (outside) – If price movement went above both the high and the low of the previous candle.
2 bar (directional) – If price movement only broke with the high (called a 2-up) or if price movement only broke the low of the previous candle (called a 2-down).
How does the indicator work?
This indicator will allow the user to be alerted when this colour change happens on any ticker and timeframe you have added the indicator to and then register an alert. The key decisions are which TICKER and which TIMEFRAME to register the alert. It will alert for both these conditions within the single alert.
When a registered alert is running it will continually monitor for these conditions and once per bar it will immediately generate the alert notification using the existing built-in TradingView alert feature. This indicator is not market or timeframe specific, in fact this alerting indicator can be used to register alerts on multiple tickers and timeframes simultaneously.
Example of how to use the indicator
Assume you are interested in being alerted for any colour changing candle on AAPL on the 30min timeframe. You would simply go to that chart (APPL on 30 min), add '2U2DFlip' indicator to the chart, then using the built-in TradingView - 'Create Alert' feature to register the alert that will listening to '2U2DFlip' indicator monitored events. In this example the alert will specifically trigger if it finds a 2U candle turning red or a 2D candle turning green and sends the alert allowing you to jump to the chart to review.
Description of the script
The script defines two conditions that incorporate the specific definition of TheStrat 2U and 2D candles, meaning, that in relation to the previous candle it only 'broke' one side of the previous candle and then adds another condition that monitors if the colour changes (close > open) of the current candle.
How is this useful to a trader?
The 2U and 2D candles are known as 'directional' candles in TheStrat community so the fact that a directional candle has 'changed' direction is a significant indication of a reversal. When this event happens a trader would be notified and is in a position to determine if a reversal play might be in order.
Note to moderators
This code is my own code, based on my other popular indicators. It encompasses the definitions of TheStrat community and trading style and was requested by the community users that trade using TheStrat technique. The reason for the source being protected is that it contains my own method of defining TheStrat and source code of my paid indicator.
Good Luck with trading and I hope this indicator helps to increase the profitability of your portfolio. Happy Trading.
Strat Dashboard [TFO]The Strat Dashboard tracks up to 10 signals while highlighting common strat reversal patterns, the SSS 50% rule, timeframe continuity, and some additional criteria with VWAP and moving averages.
With the strat, all price action bars/candles are simplified into 3 total possibilities: 1 (inside bar), 2 (a bar that takes the previous bar's high OR low), and 3 (outside bar). The first table column for Last X Candles shows the most recent candles according to this notation, for example, 1 - 2D - 2U. This would mean we had an inside bar, followed by a bar that took the previous bar's low, followed then by a bar that took the previous bar's high. Note that the colors in this column are set according to whether the current bar's close exceeds the previous bar's high/low. By default, these colors are green if above the previous bar's highs, or red if below the previous bar's lows. If the current close is in between the previous candle's high and low (even after already taking the prior high or low), no color will be applied.
The SSS 50% column shows a yes or no value for whether the current bar aligns with the SSS 50% rule, where a bar has taken either the previous high or low, and has since reversed to at least the midway point of the previous bar's height - essentially anticipating a 2 that may become a 3 (outside bar).
Timeframe continuity (TFC) shows a yes or no value for when the current candle on multiple timeframes are all green or red (above the open price or below the open price, respectively). For example, if you were looking at the current 15m, 1h, and 1D bars, and they were all above the open price, you could say there's TFC between all three timeframes. As of the initial release, you can select up to 3 different timeframes. The table values will only be true when all selected timeframes are in alignment. When setting alerts, first deselect the timeframes if you don't want TFC logic to impact alerts.
The "Last" column shows the last strat reversal pattern that was confirmed (after the last bar closes). Waiting for a candle close is the safer option since a 2 can turn into a 3; however for higher timeframes, it may be beneficial to make an update to this indicator in which you can have live alerts as well (not waiting for a candle close). You can select which strat reversals you want to be shown from the settings. Various strat reversals may be selected for alerts of type "Any"; for example, if setting up an alert for "Any" strat reversal on Symbol 1, then this alert will go off when any of the *selected* strat reversals occur for that specific symbol. Deselect any strat reversals that you don't want to be included in these alerts.
Lastly, the EMA and VWAP columns simply show whether price is above or below said value. This tracks the current candle close, and may repaint/change several times if the current bar is oscillating above and below these values.
Broadening Formations [TFO]This indicator highlights deviations from broadening formations (or megaphone patterns). Deviations from broadening ranges can often foreshadow reversals, especially in consolidation phases. These deviations are highlighted via trendlines that change color when tested, and also have the option to be alerted.
These broadening formations are heavily used with "The Strat" and can add confluence when looking for reversals within higher timeframe points of interest.
GRIDBOT Scalper by nnamWhat is this Indicator used for?
Made specifically for GRID Bots
note: before continuing... this indicator works on any timeframe, but it WORKS BEST ON THE 15 MINUTE TIMEFRAME
Straters and Forex Master Pattern Value Line Traders use this to help determine when the price could reverse.
This indicator is a scalping indicator that produces signals when a "potential" reversal in price is indicated. When the price moves UP and a Potential Bearish Reversal Signal occurs, traders can use this signal as a potential SHORT entry signal for their Short Grid Bot. The process is the same in reverse. After a sustained move down, a Potential Bullish Signal can be used by the trader as a potential LONG entry signal for their GridBot.
As shown in the screenshot below, lines develop on the chart (either RED or GREEN) indicating that a sustained move in one direction is currently occurring; however, there is no potential reversal signal plotted (this means that price action is currently moving in one direction only).
As shown in the screenshot below, lines can be used as a stop-loss after entering the GRIDbot. (usually, by this time, the Grid Bot is in Profit as it usually moves in the opposite direction first)
What this Indicator Does
The GRIDBOT Scalper provides information regarding potential reversals in the market after a sustained movement in one direction (either Bullish or Bearish).
The indicator is based on PRICE-ACTION ONLY and does not take into account the current state of the market (Bullish or Bearish).
Once the price moves in a particular direction for at least 14 bars , a line appears as shown in a previous screenshot. Once the price stops moving in that direction and begins moving in the opposite direction - and after a sustained run - a "signal" appears alerting the trader that a "potential" reversal could be on the horizon soon.
If price moves in one direction and plots both a line and a signal and then begins moving back in the other direction in a sustained manner, the original signal will remain even when a NEW line begins forming (the original line will disappear). (see below) This line will continue to move as the price continues to move. Not until a signal plots on the chart is the potential reversal forming. THE LINE DOES NOT SIGNAL A REVERSAL . Some traders, however, use this information to "ride the wave UP or DOWN" and exit their positions once the signal prints.
As shown below, optional input settings allow the trader to set the line at CLOSE or HIGH/LOW of the candle preceding the potential reversal.
It is suggested to use Close instead of High or Low but the setting allows one to use either.
As shown in the screenshot below, it is typical on LOWER TIME FRAMES to see the price pass the signal line. The Indicator works best on the 15 minute timeframe, as it gives the trader time to make the decisions required as the volatility is less on the 15 minute chart vs the 1 minute or 5 minute charts.

FTFC Watchlist (The Strat)This indicator is a five custom ticker watchlist that shows seven pre-defined higher timeframes using '#TheStrat' technique and can be used on any ticker from common stock, forex and crypto.
Explanation of 'TheStrat' trading technique
‘TheStrat’ technique works off the basis of labelling whether the focus candle did or did not break any of the previous candles high or low values. There are three possible label definitions; either a 1 candle, 2 candle or a 3 candle.
1 bar (inside) - If price movement on the new candle remains within the high and low of previous candle.
3 bar (outside) – If price movement went above both the high and the low of the previous candle.
2 bar (directional) – If price movement only broke with the high (called a 2-up) or if price movement only broke the low of the previous candle (called a 2-down).
Once labelled the technique then looks for certain combination of these labelled candles (called actionable setups) such as: 2-1-2, 1-2-2, 3-1-2.
What is Full Time Frame Continuity (FTFC)
Under 'The Strat' full timeframe continuity is limited to the colour (open vs close) of the candle being either green or red. When higher timeframe align with the 'same colour' is suggest that there is stronger support for that direction of the candle.
How does the indicator work?
The indicator will allow you to daily enter up to 5 watchlist tickers and in as close to real time (slight lag) show the developing FTFC of your watchlist tickers and avoids having to switch chart tickers to see the developing timeframe continuity
Example of how to use the indicator
A simple example will be the relationship between SPY and VIX and by having the higher timeframe overview of these two watchlist tickers while trading will give potential insights to how the market is trading overall.
Some people might also find it useful to see 'consolidation' (1 bar) and 'expansion' (3 bar) highlighted in the timeframe. This feature can be enabled in the settings.
Indicator caveats:
= Must run on 5min (or lower) chart timeframe. If not indicator will produce 'runtime error'.
= Weekly computation is not 100% reliable due to bug in TV when a month end occurs mid week.
= Please change the indicator colour if used on a non-dark theme.
= Please note this information is only presented for educational and learning purposes. It is by no means financial advice or provide any form of trading signals.
TO ENABLE , please follow these steps:
1) Add indicator to your chart and open settings
2) Enter which tickers (max 5) you wish to add to your watchlist by enabling the checkbox
3) Decide on the timeframes you wish to view
4) Configure the colouring of the watchlist.
Hope this indicator provides useful and educational information and helps to improve your overall access to information.
Timeframe Continuity [TFO]Simple timeframe continuity indicator - see whether the selected timeframes are currently above or below their opening prices. Allows up to 10 different timeframes to be used.
MTFT VWAPs Auto AnchoredMulti Time Frame Tools
Multi Time Frame Tools (MTFT) is a suite of scripts aimed to establish a standard timeframe-based color scheme. This can be utilized to overlay different timeframes calculations/values over a single timeframe. As one example, this would allow to observe the 5-month moving average, 5-week moving average, and 5-day moving average overlaid over each other. This would allow to study a chart, get accustomed to the color scheme and study all these at the same time much easier.
All indicators calculated using the below specific timeframes as input, will always use the color scheme outlined below. This is to get you in habit of recognizing the different timeframes overlaid in top of each other. These can be personalized.

MTFT VWAPs Auto Anchored
The Anchored Volume-Weighted Average Price, Anchored VWAP, is a commonly discussed FinTwit tool. I personally found it through Brian Shannon on Twitter. I have seen big FinTwit accounts solely focus on this strategy alone and have seen other big FinTwit accounts mix with their other indicators. I will be providing very basic info to utilize this script; it is up to you to dive deep into learning this strategy. I am not an expert with the tool or a financial advisor. As with all aspects of life, I recommend you research, learn, discern and practice extensively in order to become a master.
The script has the following features.
1. Three user selected time frames auto anchored VWAPS. It will auto anchor to the start of the timeframe. Timeframes(TF) include: Yearly(Y), Semi-annually(S), Quarterly(Q), Monthly(M), Weekly(W), Daily(D), and 4 hour. Image below shows the D candlestick as the active timeframe, the anchored VWAPs for the Year, Quarter, and Month.
2. Auto hide lower timeframe calculations. Auto Hide feature will hide smaller TF calculations when a larger timeframe is selected as the display TF. Example, when the Daily timeframe candlestick selected the Weekly and Daily Anchored VWAPs are hidden because they produce very noisy results. If a lower TF is selected such as the 30 min candlestick, the previously hidden Daily and Weekly Open Anchored VWAPs are now displayed. Notice that this specific indicator calculates different with every different timeframe that is selected. The lower TF calculations are more accurate as they include additional information. Image below shows the 30 min timeframe selected with the Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Open Anchored VWAPs displayed.
3. Auto Anchor using Pivot High/Low locations. Script finds the pivot highs/lows with a user selected look back/forward period. Additionally, as new pivot highs/lows appear you can choose to keep up to 4 each previous pivot high/low anchored VWAPs displayed. Image below has a 40 look back/forward period selected, and 2 past AVWAPs enabled.
You may notice in the above image that there is a gap between the AVWAP plot and the marked pivot point. This is not something that can be avoided as the script has to look forward in order to verify the pivot. The calculation is still correct, this can be verified by manually adding an “Anchored VWAP” drawing and seeing the values align. Image below shows that they match. White lines are the manually added “Anchored VWAP” drawings. If you verify this for yourself, make sure to select the correct input source in the settings of the drawing.
4. Auto Anchored on IPO High/Low. Looks for the first available candlestick in a chart and anchors to the high and low. This is useful with newer companies with recent IPOs.
IMPORTANT NOTE to TradingView admin: One of the lessons I would consider most important in attaining clarity regarding trading, is “TheStrat” by Rob Smith. His lesson on “actionable signals” is something that can be applied to any strategy. For this reason, I am including “MTFT TheStrat Patterns Pro” script in all images that will depict confluence for a better trade selection.
Example using TheStrat Pro MTFT with this indicator.
Look for a “TheStrat actionable signal” or a “TheStrat Reversal signal” on a smaller timeframe that has an instance of this indicator on a larger timeframe calculation that is in range of the candlestick that formed your actionable signal. This means that the indicators plot you are observing must be above the low and below the high of the candlestick that is the actionable signal/reversal signal.
The Image below shows what this would look like with this indicator. The selected candlestick is the 2-day, it shows a 1-3-1 pattern and the Quarter Anchored VWAP in range. This actionable signal could be played in both directions. If the high is breached, you would enter a long position from the high of the inside candlestick. If the low is breached than you would enter a short. For targets you would look at the previous pivots, for this example all targets were hit. Note that the “Entry” and “Targets” line were added manually and are not part of the script. Setups won’t always play out so nice and clean, but given that there is so many stocks and so many signals this is just a thought to improve the quality of the signal as it has extra confluence. If you are interested in learning further, research ‘TheStrat’ by Rob Smith.

MTFT TheStrat Suite (5 Scripts)
Rob Smith is the creator of ‘TheStrat’ trading strategy. For ‘TheStrat’ I have put together a suite of 5 premium scripts that combined will offer people interested in learning ‘TheStrat’ a cleaner learning process. For 2 of the 5 scripts specifically, the MTFT approach of overlaying multiple longer timeframes(TF) over a shorter TF selected as a display cannot be utilized. The other 2 scripts will have full MTFT functionality and they are my personal favorite. I will be providing very basic info to utilize this script; it is up to you to dive deep into learning this strategy. I am not an expert with the tool or a financial advisor. As with all aspects of life, I recommend you research, learn, discern and practice extensively in order to become a master.

MTFT Reversal Lines, TheStrat Suite (5of5)
This script will plot the line at the point that the reversal was formed for multiple timeframes. Often times price retraces to these points before making more explosive moves in continuation of the reversal direction.
The script has the following features.
Six user selected time frames per script instance can be enabled/disabled. Timeframes include: Yearly(Y), Semi-annually(S), Quarterly(Q), Monthly(M), Weekly(W), Daily(D), 4 hour, 1 hour, 30 min, 15 min, 10 min, and 5 min. Image below shows the Weekly TF selected, and only the W, Q, M, and W are enabled. I’ve included some comments on basic observations.
2. Auto hide lower timeframe calculations. Auto Hide feature will hide smaller TF calculations when a larger timeframe is selected as the display TF. Example, when the Daily timeframe candlestick selected the 4 hour and smaller calculations are hidden because they produce irrelevant results relative to the selected timeframe. If a lower TF is selected such as the 30 min candlestick, the previously hidden timeframes are now displayed. This allows easier study as you change between displayed timeframes.
This script works best in conjunction with ‘MTFT Last HML Band wOpen’. In the image below I have the W candlestick selected, along with the Q HML Lines, and the Q Reversal Line shown. It shows you a clearer picture of how price moves on a TheStrat continuation CS and after a TheStrat reversal point is made. This lets you break into the fine details of what happened inside Quarter 1, 2022 and after the reversal point was formed.

MTFT Actionable Signal Targets, TheStrat Suite (4of5)
Plots the previous highs/lows for the selected timeframe. Will not plot the high/low for a candlestick that is still active/open. You will have to manually Enable/Disable the high/low depending on the type of actionable signal that you are observing. Previous high/low lines will start from the near exact time that it opened so you can see exactly from what previous candlestick you are tracking each target.
Features includes:
1. Six Different Timeframes per script instance. Example below shows a weekly timeframe selected with a Shooting Star as the actionable signal that is being considered along with the past 3 lows for the Week timeframe being enabled. These would be your targets if you were to enter this SHORT trade. Keep in mind that every new week that opens the script will update to the newest 3 lows so if you are still inside a trade you might have to increase the number of past lines in order to keep an eye on the original targets. Which is why I selected 3 in this example, even if there is only 2 targets in mind.
The script will allow you to observe how price moves after an actionable signal is triggered and as it approaches the targets on smaller timeframes. Here is the setup from above on a daily timeframe selected showing how priced moved to the targets. This is all based on Robs teachings, but broken down to better grasp how price moves between pivots.
2. 20 different TF to pick from per slot. Timeframes(TF) include: Yearly(Y), Semi-annually(S), Quarterly(Q), Monthly(M), 2-Week(2W), Weekly(W), 3-Day(3D), Daily(D), 12 hour, 8 hour, 6 hour, 4 hour, 3 hour, 2 hour, 1 hour, 30 min, 15 min, 10 min, 5 min. NOTICE: 2W, 3D, 2D, 12h, 8h, 6h, 3h, and 2h don’t have a supported color scheme as I do not personally use them. They are available to pick from in the timeframe selection and you can set a color for these timeframes under the “Unsupported Color Scheme” section in the settings menu for the script if you would like to use them.
3. Show exact price at the pivots. Since drawing lines vs plots doesn’t show the value in the price bar on the right side this setting will show the value of the targets. Image below shows an example of how this looks.
4. Auto-hide timeframes based on specific timeframes selected. For this script, I look for timeframes smaller than the selected timeframe and auto hide these. This applies to all timeframes. For example, in the above Weekly Shooting Star example. If I were to select the monthly timeframe it would hide this timeframe selected so would not show the weekly targets. In the higher timeframes these targets are irrelevant.

The Image below shows what this would look like with this indicator.

This wont always play out so nice and clean, but given that there is so many stocks and so many signals this is just a thought to improve the quality of the signal as it has extra confluence.

MTFT Last HML wOpen, TheStrat Suite (3of5)
Plots previous High, Mean(50% line), and Low of the previous candlestick and the open for the active TF. This allows you to see how TheStrat Absolute Truths move within the different timeframes. In the image below you see the monthly TF selected. Price on the monthly candlestick has created several reversals up and down.
Now Utilizing this tool, you get to see how priced moved on the daily TF with the previous monthly HML lines plotted(Maroon lines) over the active month so you can see exactly how the absolute truths occur inside each month. Notice the previous High/Low are a thicker width then the Mean, this outlines more clearly which of the lines you are looking at. I’ve included some comments on basic observations.
Now for contrast, below I show you the daily TF selected with the previous quarter HML lines plotted(White lines) over the active quarter.
Script Features includes:
1. Three Timeframes per script instance. Example below shows 3 timeframes in use, Yearly(Black Lines), Quarterly( White Lines), and Monthly (Maroon Lines) on the weekly timeframe candlestick. This is where using a timeframe-based color scheme per individual timeframe will come in very handy. The open of the active timeframe is displayed using the small circles that make a line. The displayed open feature is another way to track full time frame continuity if you are tracking the open of several timeframes. The open of the active timeframe is displayed using the small circles that make a line.
2. 20 different TF to pick from per slot. Timeframes(TF) include: Yearly(Y), Semi-annually(S), Quarterly(Q), Monthly(M), 2-Week(2W), Weekly(W), 3-Day(3D), Daily(D), 12 hour, 8 hour, 6 hour, 4 hour, 3 hour, 2 hour, 1 hour, 30 min, 15 min, 10 min, 5 min. Notice: 2W, 3D, 2D, 12h, 8h, 6h, 3h, and 2h don’t have a supported color scheme as I do not personally use them. They are available to pick from in the timeframe selection and you can set a color for these timeframes under the “Unsupported Color Scheme” section in the settings menu for the script if you would like to use them.
3. Enable/Disable High, Mean, Low or Open on any of the timeframe slots. Custom selection of plots will create clarity in observing timeframe-based analysis. Example below shows the Yearly Open enabled on a Monthly timeframe candlestick selected, along with the 6-month HML lines(This is similar to the quarter, the semi-annual)it shows how the start of the year gave a clear direction several times in the past few years for BTC/USD. A similar analysis can be done across multiple settings. TheStrat Actionable Signals paired with ideas like these can be great setups.
4. Auto-hide timeframes based on specific timeframes selected. For this script, I look for HML lines to have at least 4 total candlesticks within the selected TF. I disable any setting that has 3 or less candlesticks. This applies to all timeframes. This will allow for you to leave several instances of the script in your chart and zoom in and out to see macro/micro levels of a chart. The example below has 2 different instances of the script enabled, first instance (Y, Q, M), and second instance (W, D, 4h). with the Month candlestick selected. Notice how only the Year HML plots are displayed. All other lower timeframes are hidden, this will allow for an easy transition into a lower timeframe analysis.
Same example as above, but now with the Weekly timeframe candlestick selected. Notice that without changing any settings on the scripts the Quarterly (White) and Monthly (Maroon) are now visible.
One more time, this time with the 30m candlestick timeframe selected. Notice that without changing any settings on the scripts the Day(Green) and the 4 hour(Pink) plots appear.
5. Custom Width Selection in script settings per plot type, High, Mean, Low and Open.

The Image below shows what this would look like with this indicator.

MTFT Full Time Frame Continuity Table, TheStrat Suite (2of5)
Full timeframe continuity observes what direction different timeframes are pointed at, red or green. This gives you a bias when evaluating a trade. Image below shows 3 instances of the script to outline the max capacity of the script.
Features includes:
1. Four user selected TFs, with 20 different TF to pick from per script instance. Timeframes(TF) include: Yearly(Y), Semi-annually(S), Quarterly(Q), Monthly(M), 2-Week(2W), Weekly(W), 3-Day(3D), Daily(D), 12 hour, 8 hour, 6 hour, 4 hour, 3 hour, 2 hour, 1 hour, 30 min, 15 min, 10 min, 5 min. The first row on the table cell will show the text for the selected timeframe.
2. Color text Green/Red timeframe based on candlestick status for the selected timeframe. Entire Table Cell text will be colored in this color. These can be customized to user preference.
3. Absolute Truth for most recently closed candlestick, plus the active candlestick. This will be displayed in the second row of the table cell. The value inside the brackets ‘ ’ is used for the previous closed candlestick. The value outside the brackets is for the active candlestick.
4. Label pattern if it’s “in force” or not. This only applies for the active candlestick absolute truth value. Note, ‘i’ means the absolute truth is in force. ‘x’ means the absolute truth is not in force.
5. Actionable Signal indication at bottom. If there is an inside candlestick, a hammer or a shooter, the script will display , , and respectively at the bottom on the third row.
6. Auto-hide Lower Timeframes. When the table cell value is smaller than the selected timeframe this timeframe will be hidden. This is done because their will be errors in calculations.
7. Customizable Table Cell Width for use in the different platforms, desktop/mobile. For desktop I use the setting.
IMPORTANT NOTE for TradingView admin: One of the lessons I would consider most important in attaining clarity regarding trading, is “TheStrat” by Rob Smith. His lesson on “actionable signals” is something that can be applied to any strategy. For this reason, I am including “MTFT TheStrat Patterns Pro” script in all images that will depict confluence for a better trade selection.
Example using TheStrat Pro MTFT with this indicator.
Look for a “TheStrat actionable signal” or a “TheStrat Reversal signal” along with this indicator showing several other larger timeframes Red/Green depending on the direction of the actionable signal.
The Image below shows what this would look like with this indicator. The selected candlestick is the Week, it shows a confirmed closed Shooting Star Actionable signal and below the table shows that the Current Week(W), Month(M), Quarter(Q), and Year(Y) are all Red. This actionable signal would be played for SHORTS. If the low is breached than you would enter a short. For targets you would look at the previous pivots, for this example all targets were hit. This wont always play out so nice and clean, but given that there is so many stocks and so many signals this is just a thought to improve the quality of the signal as it has extra confluence.
MTFT Patterns Noob, TheStrat Suite (1of5)Multi Time Frame Tools
Multi Time Frame Tools (MTFT) is a suite of scripts aimed to establish a standard timeframe-based color scheme. This can be utilized to overlay different timeframes calculations/values over a single timeframe. As one example, this would allow to observe the 5-month moving average, 5-week moving average, and 5-day moving average overlaid over each other. This would allow to study a chart, get accustomed to the color scheme and study all these at the same time much easier.
All indicators calculated using the below specific timeframes as input, will always use the color scheme outlined below. This is to get you in habit of recognizing the different timeframes overlaid in top of each other. These can be personalized.
Longer TF analysis.
Yearly - Black
Semi-Annual - Yellow
Quarterly - White
Monthly - Maroon
Weekly - Royal Blue
Daily - Lime
Shorter TF analysis.
4 hour - Fuchsia
1 hour - Orange
30 min - Red
15 min - Brown
10 min - Purple
5 min - Lilac
All color coordination is able to be modified in either the “Inputs” or “Style” section. If you need to make changes, make sure to select “Save as Default” on the bottom right of the settings menu.
Recommended Chart Color Layout
I played around with color coordination a lot. The final product was what worked best for me. I personally use the following chart settings to accent all available TF colors.
-> Click on the settings wheel on your chart. -> Click on “Appearance”.
Background - Solid -> On the top row pick the 6th color from the left.
Vert Grid Lines and Horz Grid Lines -> On the top row pick the 7th color from the left.
You may of course change these and the indicator line colors as you like.
Adding indicator to Chart
-> Open the TradingView “Indicators & Strategies” library, the icon has “ƒx”. -> All premium scripts will be located under “Invite-Only Scripts” -> Click indicator to add to your chart.
MTFT TheStrat Suite (5 Scripts)
Rob Smith is the creator of ‘TheStrat’ trading strategy. For ‘TheStrat’ I have put together a suite of 5 premium scripts that combined will offer people interested in learning ‘TheStrat’ a cleaner learning process. For 2 of the 5 scripts specifically, the MTFT approach of overlaying multiple longer timeframes(TF) over a shorter TF selected as a display cannot be utilized. The other 2 scripts will have full MTFT functionality and they are my personal favorite. I will be providing very basic info to utilize this script; it is up to you to dive deep into learning this strategy. I am not an expert with the tool or a financial advisor. As with all aspects of life, I recommend you research, learn, discern and practice extensively in order to become a master.

MTFT Patterns Pro/Noob, TheStrat Suite (1of5)
Features includes:
1.) Absolute Truth #. This setting will provide the candlesticks absolute truth # below the CS.
2.) Color bars based on Absolute Truth. This setting will color all inside candlesticks yellow, all Green Outside Candlesticks White and all Red Outside Candlesticks Fuchsia. Scenario 2 candlesticks are left as is and will color based on the color of the original candlestick. This setting is default enabled and needs to be disabled in the “Style” tab under the indicator settings wheel. I found this more practical in getting used to the 3 absolute truth scenarios.
3.) Reversals. This setting will mark when reversal patterns as discussed by Rob are posted. Noob version will also include the description of the reversal pattern, while the Pro version will only plot an ‘R’ without the text description. Note: There should never be back-to-back green Rs or red Rs. I found this issue a lot on many of the other ‘TheStrat’ scripts out there. TradingView development team note: The plotchar function does not allow dynamic text so this is the only reason on why there needs to be two separate versions of the script. ‘Pro’ is important for experienced users that already identify the patterns without the text and ‘Noob’ is important for beginner users that still need the text description of the pattern.
4. Continuations. This setting will mark when continuation patterns as discussed by Rob are posted. Noob version will also include the description of the continuation pattern, while the Pro version will only plot a ‘C’ without the text description.

5. Actionable Signals and Complex Actionable Signals (CAS). This has several objective parameters as defined by Rob’s course. ‘Complex Actionable Signals’ is a name I used when speaking of actionable signals that require a combination of 2 or more candlesticks.
Actionable Signals.
• All inside candlesticks(Absolute Truth #1)
• Hammers
• Shooting Stars
Complex Actionable Signals.
• (Absolute Truth Combo 1-3-1 )Inside Outside Inside
• Outside -> Hammer
• Outside -> Shooting Star
• Inside -> Hammer
• Inside -> Shooting Star
• Momentum Inside
• Momentum Hammer
• Momentum Shooting Star
• Hammer -> Shooting Star
• Shooting Star -> Hammer
5a. Example CAS 1-3G-1. I am including only one example of several of the CAS that are included in this script. The star is utilized for all CAS, the color and location designate the direction that the CAS would have you act on. Note the “Entry” and “Target” line were added manually and are not part of the script. This is one successful setup; don’t get excited thinking this is how it always works. I will let you discover and learn for yourself that there is many failed setups and many setups that never trigger the actionable signal. This is where setting alerts is very handy.
6. Alerts. Press on the “Create Alert” Icon for TradingView. When the prompt opens select the preferred script either “TheStrat Pro” or “TheStrat Noob” under “Condition” and then under the sub-menu select any of the following scenarios.
• C ▲/ ▼ = If the active CS shows a continuation up/down pattern, remember this CS is active and can still change direction and trigger a reversal in the other direction.
• R ▲/▼ = If the active CS shows a reversal up/down pattern, remember this CS is active and can still change direction and trigger a continuation in the previous trend direction.
• HM Trigger(Last High Cross) = Alert when the active CS breaks the high of the previous CS. As a new CS opens, it re-adjusts its values and is just constantly waiting for the active CS break through the previous CS high.
• SS Trigger(Last Low Cross) = Alert when the active CS breaks the low of the previous CS. As a new CS opens, it re-adjusts its values and is just constantly waiting for the active CS break through the previous CS low.
• Inside Trigger (Last High/Low Cross) = Alert when the active CS breaks the low or the high of the previous CS. As a new CS opens, it re-adjusts its values and is just constantly waiting for the active CS break through either the previous CS low or the high.
• Last CS Inside
• Last CS H
• Last CS S
• Last CS Actionable Signal (inside, H or S)
• Last CS Complex Actionable Signal
• Last CS Any Actionable Signal
