S_Sigma HTF Candles (UTC Draw / NY Labels)

🕯️ S_Sigma HTF Candles (UTC Draw / NY Labels)
Multi-Timeframe Overlay with Session Labels & Imbalances
S_Sigma HTF Candles is a powerful, non-repainting overlay indicator that allows you to visualize up to 6 different Higher Timeframes (HTF) directly on your current chart.
Designed specifically for traders who need context without switching tabs, this tool draws accurate HTF candles using UTC time (standard for Crypto) while labeling them with New York Timezone data (standard for Stocks/Forex). It also detects Fair Value Gaps (FVG) and Volume Imbalances automatically.
🌟 Key Features
📊 6 Independent HTF Slots
Configure up to 6 different timeframes simultaneously (e.g., 15m, 1H, 4H, 1D, 1W). Each slot is customizable and can be toggled on/off independently.
🌍 UTC Drawing + NY Labels (The "Sigma" Edge)
Drawing: Candles are calculated strictly using UTC time to ensure wicks and bodies match exchange data (perfect for BTC/ETH).
Labels: Day of the Week (Mon/Tue/Wed) and Time labels are converted to America/New_York time. Never get confused by candle closes again.
#HTF Countdown Timer**
See exactly how much time is left until the Higher Timeframe candle closes. Essential for timing entries at the "Candle Close."
📈 Smart Imbalance Detection
FVG (Fair Value Gaps): Automatically highlights 3-candle reversal gaps.
VI (Volume Imbalance): Highlights wicks that pierce previous bodies.
🏗️ Custom Session Starts
Don't like the standard Daily candle? Force the Daily candle to open at 08:30 NY or 09:30 NY (Market Open) instead of Midnight UTC.
⚙️ Customization Options
Visuals: Full control over Bull/Bear colors, borders, wicks, and opacity.
Layout: Adjust padding, width, and spacing between timeframes to prevent overlap.
Trace Lines: Optional lines tracing the Open, High, Low, and Close of the forming HTF candle.
Labels: Toggle HTF names, Timers, and Day-of-Week labels on/off.
💡 How to Use
Add to Chart: The indicator draws candles to the right of the current price (offset) to keep your chart clean.
Check Alignment: Ensure the "Daily Name" matches your expected market session (NY Time).
Spot Entries: Look for price entering an FVG (Gray box) or hitting a HTF Support/Resistance level (Wick of the HTF candle).
Time Entries: Wait for the Timer to hit 00:00 for a confirmed candle close.
Perfect for: Smart Money Concepts (SMC), ICT, Wyckoff, and Multi-Timeframe Analysis.
