Displaying Higher-Timeframe JFatl Candles as Colored Chart Backgrounds

Summary

This indicator overlays JFatl candles from a higher timeframe as filled rectangles on a chart. It uses filling buffers to render each candle’s body and shadows: bullish and bearish bodies receive different colors, as do the shadows. The description is about visualizing higher-timeframe candle information in the chart background, rather than generating trade entries or exits.

Using the indicator requires the compiled JFatl and JFatlCandle indicator files in the platform’s indicators directory. The document gives no parameter settings, examples of signal interpretation, performance tests, or guidance on how the displayed candles might be incorporated into a trading strategy. It therefore explains a chart-display technique but does not establish a trading edge or specify the instrument and timeframe for use.

Key ideas

• The indicator renders JFatl candles from a higher timeframe as filled chart rectangles.
• Candle body colors distinguish direction, while separate colors distinguish the shadows.
• The tool visualizes higher-timeframe price structure and does not describe trade signals.
• The compiled JFatl and JFatlCandle files are required for operation.
• No parameters, trading rules, or performance evidence are provided.
