Candle Countdown Timer

A simple chart-based timer designed to help traders stay aware of upcoming candle closes.
Trading Timer provides a real-time countdown to the next candle close directly on your chart, helping you prepare for timeframe changes, review setups, and maintain a consistent trading routine.
Built for discretionary traders who rely on candle closes as important decision points, the indicator provides a clean visual countdown, optional alerts, and a compact dashboard that stays out of the way of your analysis.
