Alert Before Bar Close ========================== Example Figure
Originality and usefulness This indicator/alert mechanism is unique in two ways. First, it provides alerts before the close of a candlestick, allowing time-based traders to prepare early to determine if the market is about to form a setup. Second, it introduces an observation time mechanism, enabling time-based traders to observe when the market is active, thereby avoiding too many false signals during electronic trading or when trading is light.
Detail Regarding the settings (Arrow 1). The first input is to select the candlestick period you want to observe. The second is to notify a few seconds in advance. The third input sets the observation time. For example, if you set "1,2,3,4,5," the alert mechanism will only be activated during the period from 01:00:00 to 05:59:59, consistent with the time zone you set in TradingView. Additionally, I have set it so that the alert will only trigger once per candlestick, so don't worry about repeated alerts.
The alert setup is very simple, too. Follow the steps (Arrow 2, 3) to complete the setup. I have tested several periods and successfully received alerts on both mobile and computer. If anyone encounters any issues, feel free to let me know.
