All-in-One: Symbol, TF, Weekday Labels, Countdown/Clock
All-in-One: Symbol+TF • Weekday Labels • Countdown/Clock
Version 1.0.0
Chart-furniture dashboard that puts four everyday reference pieces on one indicator: a symbol / timeframe / date table, forex-session weekday labels along the bottom, an on-chart candle countdown, and a right-hand Clock and Countdown Panel showing the London clock, the candle countdown and the current candle's open and close time. Each piece toggles on or off independently.
WHAT IT DRAWS
• Symbol and timeframe table: a bottom-right table showing the ticker, the chart timeframe and the current date (weekday plus day-month). Works on every timeframe from seconds up to weekly.
• Weekday labels: forex-session weekday text along the bottom of the chart, drawn on 5m to 4h charts only. Each label is projected forward onto the next session, so the text shows the upcoming day.
• On-chart candle countdown: a floating label to the right of the last bar counting down to the current bar's close, with per-timeframe control over how far right it sits.
• Clock and Countdown Panel: a middle-right table showing any of three rows: the candle countdown, the live London clock, and the current candle's open and close time. The panel sizes itself to the visible rows and stays vertically centred.
HOW IT WORKS
• The countdown reads the time remaining to the current bar's close and updates live. It shows on daily and below (not on weekly or monthly), and a Visibility timeframe input restricts it further if you want it only on the lower timeframes.
• The Clock and Countdown Panel's live clock reads real time, while the candle-time row reads the bar you are on. In Bar Replay the candle time tracks the scrubbed-to bar while the live clock keeps real time. Each of the three rows toggles independently and there is no master toggle: turn all three off to hide the panel.
• The weekday labels draw on 5m to 4h charts only. Below 5m the fixed forward projection (a bar count) throws them far off-screen, and on seconds charts the offset maths mis-places them, so both are gated out. A marker is drawn at each session's open bar but pushed forward so it renders over the next session, which is why Monday's marker reads "Tue", Tuesday's reads "Wed", and so on. Friday reads "Mon", projecting across the closed weekend so Monday's session still gets a label. The Sunday-evening open is not traded, so it is intentionally not labelled.
• Opacity inputs read as true opacity: 0 is invisible and 100 is solid.
EXTENDED TRADING HOURS WHERE THE SYMBOL OFFERS THE CHOICE
The weekday labels need the overnight session-open bar to exist in the data. On any symbol that offers a Regular / Extended hours choice (for example DE40, and some FX feeds), set the chart's Session to "Extended trading hours" (Chart Settings, Symbol, Session, Extended trading hours). On Regular Hours the session-open bar is trimmed out of the series, so the weekday labels simply do not appear. Only the weekday labels depend on this: the countdown, the live clock, the candle time and the symbol/timeframe table read the current bar or real time and work either way. Symbols that trade one continuous session (for example US500, USTEC, XTIUSD) have no such option and are unaffected.
WHAT IT RUNS ON
It runs on any instrument. Only the weekday-label placement is instrument-dependent, so on untested symbols confirm the day labels land where you want them. Tested on ICMarkets data across forex pairs, DE40, XAUUSD, USTEC, US500, XTIUSD and US30.
HOW TO USE
Add it to any chart. Use the symbol/timeframe table and the live clock as an at-a-glance header, and the countdown to see how long the current bar has left. On a 5m to 4h chart, turn on the weekday labels to mark each upcoming session along the bottom (enable Extended Trading Hours first if the symbol offers the choice). Open the Clock and Countdown Panel's candle-time row when working in Bar Replay to read the open and close of the bar you are scrubbed to.
