Candle Countdown for Nonstandard Chart Timeframes
Summary
This brief description presents a utility for showing the time remaining before the current candlestick closes. It is aimed at chart intervals that may be less intuitive to track, including intraday and multi-hour periods. The practical purpose is to let a trader see candle timing at a glance.
The document contains no indicator implementation details, trading rules, or evidence that a countdown improves decisions or results. It describes a display aid rather than a forecasting method: knowing when a bar will close may help with timing observations, but it does not establish a price signal. No risks, platform limitations, or behavior across instruments are discussed.
