The SymbolTFOverlay is a custom indicator for the cTrader platform, designed to display the current symbol (e.g., EURUSD) and timeframe (e.g., H1) as a semi-transparent text overlay on the chart. This indicator enhances chart readability by providing a clear, centralized visual reference for key market information.Key Features:
- Dynamic Text Display: Shows the symbol and timeframe (e.g., "EURUSD | H1") in the center of the visible chart area.
- Automatic Updates: Refreshes the text whenever a new bar is formed, ensuring it remains centered.
- Customizable Appearance: Font size, color and transparency of the text can be freely customized.
- Efficient Monitoring: Utilizes a timer (checking every 2 seconds) to detect changes in the chart's visible area, such as zooming or scrolling, for seamless text repositioning.
- Robust Validation: Includes checks to prevent errors from invalid indices or price levels, ensuring reliable performance across different market conditions.
- Overlay Design: Renders the text directly on the chart without cluttering it, maintaining a clean visual experience.
The indicator is ideal for traders who need quick access to the symbol and timeframe information while analyzing charts, with automatic adjustments to maintain optimal visibility during dynamic chart interactions.
