Updated eBacktesting Learning: HTF Candles
eBacktesting - Learning: HTF Candles brings higher-timeframe candles directly onto your current chart, so you can keep your bigger-picture context while executing on the lower timeframe.
Pick up to 4 timeframes (for example 15m / 30m / 1H / 4H) and the indicator will draw their candles neatly to the right of price. For each one you can choose to show the Current HTF candle (still forming) or the previously closed HTF candle, so you can train both “live context” and “closed-candle confirmation” workflows.
You can also enable an optional flip alert per timeframe. A “flip” happens when that HTF candle changes from bullish to bearish (or the other way around). This is great for spotting shifts in bias without staring at multiple charts.
These indicators are built to pair perfectly with the eBacktesting extension, where traders can practice these concepts step-by-step. Backtesting concepts visually like this is one of the fastest ways to learn, build confidence, and improve trading performance.
