Source Code
The code stays on GitHub. The author has not published this script under an open licence, so ForexR does not show its code. Copy script reads the file straight from GitHub into your clipboard, so you can still try it on your own chart. Ask the author before reusing the code anywhere else.
Overview
3-Candle Time Pattern - Enhanced converts user-specified SAST starting hours into UTC to identify initial 4-hour range candles, plotting their high, low, and median levels across the chart. The script tracks market state progression, detects bullish or bearish rejections around these boundaries, and manages historical line and label drawings across a configurable lookback window.
- SAST to UTC session time conversion
- Multi-timeframe range high, low, and median line tracking
- Pattern state tracking for range expansion and rejections
- Configurable historical lookback window in days
- Optimized resource management with single-bar redrawing

Third-party code. ForexR did not write, test or endorse this script, and the summary above was generated automatically from its code and README. Indicators describe the past, and a strategy's backtest can look better than live trading, especially when a script repaints. Check it in the Strategy Tester and on a demo account before you rely on it.
