Overview

LTF History requests volume times mid price from the chart timeframe and from a three-minute lower timeframe, then places debug labels at the first bar that has lower timeframe data and at fixed bar counts such as 4000 and 5000. It has no inputs, no signals and is meant for inspecting data limits.
