Visualizing Higher-Timeframe Candles with RangeSwitch Trend Colors

Summary

This indicator overlays candles from a larger timeframe as filled rectangles and colors them according to the XD-RangeSwitch indicator. Candle bodies use one color for each trend direction, while shadows use separate colors, helping distinguish the higher-timeframe trend within a lower-timeframe chart. The display is a visualization aid; the document does not specify entry or exit rules, parameter choices, or how the underlying RangeSwitch signal is calculated.

The description provides no performance tests or examples beyond identifying the chart display. It also states that the separate XD-RangeSwitch indicator file is required for operation. Traders would need to evaluate the signal logic and test how the overlay behaves across instruments and timeframes before using it to guide decisions.

• Candle body and shadow colors distinguish trend direction.
• The displayed colors depend on the XD-RangeSwitch indicator.
• The document gives no trading rules or evidence of strategy performance.
• The separate XD-RangeSwitch indicator is required for the overlay to work.
