Multi-Timeframe Candles HistogramsAt some community members' requests, I have built on the original code to make it a single indicator with the option for users to check off which timeframes they want to be shown. Choices are 1-hour, daily, weekly, and monthly.
I couldn't figure out how to separate each timeframe into its own histogram, so this is the best I can offer at the moment. If any community member wants to take a crack at it, be my guest.
Colors are customizable.
If you have a paid TW account, you can lay it down twice and put the hour and daily on one and the weekly and monthly on the other.
That said, I hope you enjoy this version of this indicator.

MultiTimeframe Candles for Full Time Frame Continuity AnalysisIn honor of Rob Smith (R.I.P), the creator of TheStrat, I decided to try to figure out how to make an indicator that graphically shows you the price levels and movements on higher timeframes.
The goal is to have full timeframe continuity with TheStrat. Ideally when you are analyzing the lower time, you want it to be in continuity with the higher time frames.
How to Use It:
All you have to do is put on the indicator the number of times you desire.
So if you want the hourly, the daily, the weekly, and the monthly, then you have to just put on the indicator 4 times--once for each timeframe.
Then you go into each one you put on the chart and go to the drop down menu where you choose the timeframe you want displayed.
In the future, I'll do a video to show you exactly how that works, but I think you guys can figure it out.
Timeframe Continuity Oscillator [TFO]This indicator is used to visualize timeframe continuity - a core concept of "The Strat" - along with some added logic for potential range limiters.
When discussing timeframe continuity, typically we are evaluating several timeframes to see if price is trading above or below the current open of each respective timeframe. If we are concerned with the 15m, 4h, and 1D for example, and price is trading above the current open of each of those timeframes, we can say that we have full timeframe continuity (FTFC) up. Conversely, if price is trading below the current open of each of those timeframes, we can say that we have FTFC down.
We can visualize this with an oscillator of sorts, where the zero line is anchored to the open price of the highest timeframe that we're concerned with. Using the prior example, this would be the 1D timeframe. As long as price is above the current 1D open, it is impossible to have FTFC down; and as long as price is below the current 1D open, it is impossible to have FTFC up. This is why we base the oscillator's values off of the highest timeframe's open (the values are simply how far price has traded from this open) - any value greater than zero tells us that there is potential to have FTFC up, and any value less than zero tells us that there is potential to have FTFC down.
There are a few ways we chose to visualize this data. First, we can choose the "Binary" option which simply uses one solid bullish color above the zero line, and one solid bearish color below the zero line.
Second, we can choose the "Gradient" option to help describe whether we have FTFC up or down. Values above the zero line will be a mix of the bullish color and mid color, where the mid color indicates no timeframe continuity up and the bullish color indicates FTFC up - sort of like a color spectrum of timeframe continuity to describe how many timeframes are in agreement. Similarly, values below the zero line will be a mix of the bearish color and the mid color, where the mid color again indicates no timeframe continuity down and the bearish color indicates FTFC down.
Lastly, we can choose the "FTFC Only" option which will only color the histogram bars as bullish if there is FTFC up, or bearish if there is FTFC down.
One more feature that we added is these upper and lower bands that aim to help describe the potential upper and lower limits that price may travel, relative to the highest timeframe's open. This is done by taking the standard deviation of some defined lookback period, for example, 2 standard deviations of the previous 10 weeks, assuming 1W is the highest timeframe enabled.
The concept is similar to that of an ADR (average daily range) as it can be used to estimate maximum range extensions for the largest timeframe. The arrows you see are plotted once the value exceeds either band - alerts can be enabled for these events as well through any alert() function call.
FTFC Watchlist (The Strat)This indicator is a five custom ticker watchlist that shows seven pre-defined higher timeframes using '#TheStrat' technique and can be used on any ticker from common stock, forex and crypto.
Explanation of 'TheStrat' trading technique
‘TheStrat’ technique works off the basis of labelling whether the focus candle did or did not break any of the previous candles high or low values. There are three possible label definitions; either a 1 candle, 2 candle or a 3 candle.
1 bar (inside) - If price movement on the new candle remains within the high and low of previous candle.
3 bar (outside) – If price movement went above both the high and the low of the previous candle.
2 bar (directional) – If price movement only broke with the high (called a 2-up) or if price movement only broke the low of the previous candle (called a 2-down).
Once labelled the technique then looks for certain combination of these labelled candles (called actionable setups) such as: 2-1-2, 1-2-2, 3-1-2.
What is Full Time Frame Continuity (FTFC)
Under 'The Strat' full timeframe continuity is limited to the colour (open vs close) of the candle being either green or red. When higher timeframe align with the 'same colour' is suggest that there is stronger support for that direction of the candle.
How does the indicator work?
The indicator will allow you to daily enter up to 5 watchlist tickers and in as close to real time (slight lag) show the developing FTFC of your watchlist tickers and avoids having to switch chart tickers to see the developing timeframe continuity
Example of how to use the indicator
A simple example will be the relationship between SPY and VIX and by having the higher timeframe overview of these two watchlist tickers while trading will give potential insights to how the market is trading overall.
Some people might also find it useful to see 'consolidation' (1 bar) and 'expansion' (3 bar) highlighted in the timeframe. This feature can be enabled in the settings.
Indicator caveats:
= Must run on 5min (or lower) chart timeframe. If not indicator will produce 'runtime error'.
= Weekly computation is not 100% reliable due to bug in TV when a month end occurs mid week.
= Please change the indicator colour if used on a non-dark theme.
= Please note this information is only presented for educational and learning purposes. It is by no means financial advice or provide any form of trading signals.
TO ENABLE , please follow these steps:
1) Add indicator to your chart and open settings
2) Enter which tickers (max 5) you wish to add to your watchlist by enabling the checkbox
3) Decide on the timeframes you wish to view
4) Configure the colouring of the watchlist.
Hope this indicator provides useful and educational information and helps to improve your overall access to information.
MTFT Full Time Frame Continuity Table TheStrat Suite(2of5)Multi Time Frame Tools
Multi Time Frame Tools (MTFT) is a suite of scripts aimed to establish a standard timeframe-based color scheme. This can be utilized to overlay different timeframes calculations/values over a single timeframe. As one example, this would allow to observe the 5-month moving average, 5-week moving average, and 5-day moving average overlaid over each other. This would allow to study a chart, get accustomed to the color scheme and study all these at the same time much easier.
All indicators calculated using the below specific timeframes as input, will always use the color scheme outlined below. This is to get you in habit of recognizing the different timeframes overlaid in top of each other. These can be personalized.
Longer TF analysis.
Yearly - Black
Semi-Annual - Yellow
Quarterly - White
Monthly - Maroon
Weekly - Royal Blue
Daily - Lime
Shorter TF analysis.
4 hour - Fuchsia
1 hour - Orange
30 min - Red
15 min - Brown
10 min - Purple
5 min - Lilac
All color coordination is able to be modified in either the “Inputs” or “Style” section. If you need to make changes, make sure to select “Save as Default” on the bottom right of the settings menu.
Recommended Chart Color Layout
I played around with color coordination a lot. The final product was what worked best for me. I personally use the following chart settings to accent all available TF colors.
-> Click on the settings wheel on your chart. -> Click on “Appearance”.
Background - Solid -> On the top row pick the 6th color from the left.
Vert Grid Lines and Horz Grid Lines -> On the top row pick the 7th color from the left.
You may of course change these and the indicator line colors as you like.
Adding indicator to Chart
-> Open the TradingView “Indicators & Strategies” library, the icon has “ƒx”. -> All premium scripts will be located under “Invite-Only Scripts” -> Click indicator to add to your chart.
MTFT TheStrat Suite (5 Scripts)
Rob Smith is the creator of ‘TheStrat’ trading strategy. For ‘TheStrat’ I have put together a suite of 5 premium scripts that combined will offer people interested in learning ‘TheStrat’ a cleaner learning process. For 2 of the 5 scripts specifically, the MTFT approach of overlaying multiple longer timeframes(TF) over a shorter TF selected as a display cannot be utilized. The other 2 scripts will have full MTFT functionality and they are my personal favorite. I will be providing very basic info to utilize this script; it is up to you to dive deep into learning this strategy. I am not an expert with the tool or a financial advisor. As with all aspects of life, I recommend you research, learn, discern and practice extensively in order to become a master.

MTFT Full Time Frame Continuity Table, TheStrat Suite (2of5)
Full timeframe continuity observes what direction different timeframes are pointed at, red or green. This gives you a bias when evaluating a trade. Image below shows 3 instances of the script to outline the max capacity of the script.
Features includes:
1. Four user selected TFs, with 20 different TF to pick from per script instance. Timeframes(TF) include: Yearly(Y), Semi-annually(S), Quarterly(Q), Monthly(M), 2-Week(2W), Weekly(W), 3-Day(3D), Daily(D), 12 hour, 8 hour, 6 hour, 4 hour, 3 hour, 2 hour, 1 hour, 30 min, 15 min, 10 min, 5 min. The first row on the table cell will show the text for the selected timeframe.
2. Color text Green/Red timeframe based on candlestick status for the selected timeframe. Entire Table Cell text will be colored in this color. These can be customized to user preference.
3. Absolute Truth for most recently closed candlestick, plus the active candlestick. This will be displayed in the second row of the table cell. The value inside the brackets ‘ ’ is used for the previous closed candlestick. The value outside the brackets is for the active candlestick.
4. Label pattern if it’s “in force” or not. This only applies for the active candlestick absolute truth value. Note, ‘i’ means the absolute truth is in force. ‘x’ means the absolute truth is not in force.
5. Actionable Signal indication at bottom. If there is an inside candlestick, a hammer or a shooter, the script will display , , and respectively at the bottom on the third row.
6. Auto-hide Lower Timeframes. When the table cell value is smaller than the selected timeframe this timeframe will be hidden. This is done because their will be errors in calculations.
7. Customizable Table Cell Width for use in the different platforms, desktop/mobile. For desktop I use the setting.
IMPORTANT NOTE for TradingView admin: One of the lessons I would consider most important in attaining clarity regarding trading, is “TheStrat” by Rob Smith. His lesson on “actionable signals” is something that can be applied to any strategy. For this reason, I am including “MTFT TheStrat Patterns Pro” script in all images that will depict confluence for a better trade selection.
Example using TheStrat Pro MTFT with this indicator.
Look for a “TheStrat actionable signal” or a “TheStrat Reversal signal” along with this indicator showing several other larger timeframes Red/Green depending on the direction of the actionable signal.
The Image below shows what this would look like with this indicator. The selected candlestick is the Week, it shows a confirmed closed Shooting Star Actionable signal and below the table shows that the Current Week(W), Month(M), Quarter(Q), and Year(Y) are all Red. This actionable signal would be played for SHORTS. If the low is breached than you would enter a short. For targets you would look at the previous pivots, for this example all targets were hit. This wont always play out so nice and clean, but given that there is so many stocks and so many signals this is just a thought to improve the quality of the signal as it has extra confluence.
[BM] HTF Candle Evolution█ OVERVIEW
This script shows how a higher timeframe candle evolves over time.
It was created as a visual aid to #TheStrat and provides a new way of looking at Timeframe Continuity.

Tweak Strat FTFCThis script allows traders to view timeframe continuity on 7 timeframes at the top of the chart.
The trader selects 7 different timeframes, and the script will reflect whether the current candle for each timeframe is bullish or bearish (current price > the open OR current price < the open).
If a timeframe is currently bearish, the box will be purple.
If a timeframe is currently bullish, the box will be orange.
A circle in the middle of the box indicates that that timeframe is currently an inside bar (1).
An upward arrow indicates that that timeframe is currently a directional up bar (2u).
A downward arrow indicates that that timeframe is currently a directional down bar (2d).
A rectangle indicates that that timeframe is currently an outside bar (3).
NOTE: The color of the boxes is fixed. Traders MUST select a timeframe for EACH OF THE 7 FIELDS.
FTFC Scanner #1Full Time Frame Continuity Scanner
Scans for Monthly, Weekly, Daily and Hourly timeframes. There are multiple combinations available for these timeframes.
10 stocks in one indicator
Long FTFC = full time frame continuity to the long side. Meaning all the timeframes selected are green (going up)
Short FTFC = full time frame continuity to the short side. Meaning all the timeframes selected are red (going down)
The chart needs to be in 1 Hour or lower timeframe for the indicator to display correct results.
A trial is available. Please DM me for access.
Screener Red?Based on the teachings of Rob Smith
Ability to change the timeframe and the symbols this indicator is scanning through in the input tab under settings of this indicator. Maximum symbols 40. All of the symbols need to entered. If any symbol field is left empty, the script might not work properly.
This is a simple screener which checks if the current candle is red/going down.
I add it 4 times and change the timeframes on each one to tell me if any of the symbols scanning through have FTFC(Full time frame continuity). If a symbol appears in all of the timeframes selected, it would have continuity in all of those timeframes. Meaning going down in all of those selected timeframes.
I like to add a textbox on top of the labels manually when I change the timeframe to tell me which timeframe the indicator is scanning through.
Always double check in the settings of the indicator that the correct timeframe is selected.
First label is for all of the symbols the indicator is scanning.
Second label is the result of the scan. Text is bigger in this label than the first label to differentiate from the first label and for ease of use.
Please DM me on how to access this indicator.
