3m Cycles
3m Cycles is a TradingView indicator that draws vertical lines on your chart at fixed clock-based time intervals — every 20 seconds, every 1 minute, and every 3 minutes — to help you visually track recurring market cycles.
Each cycle is fully independent and configurable: you can set the line color, width, and style (solid, dashed, or dotted), control how far back and ahead the lines project, and choose which chart timeframes each cycle appears on. The 3-minute cycle acts as the master clock — all three cycles' visible windows shift forward together every time a new 3-minute boundary is crossed, keeping everything in sync. Lines are pre-drawn into the future so they're already on the chart before the candle forms, and they automatically disappear once they fall outside your configured lookback window.
