Custom Timeframe Bias IndicatorMy "Custom Timeframe Bias Indicator" is a very practical and powerful TradingView indicator. It can be called a "God-like indicator" because it combines flexible timeframe customization, clear bias analysis and intuitive visual display to help traders quickly understand the long and short trends of the market. The following is a detailed description of this indicator:
1. Index name and function overview
Name: Custom Timeframe Bias Indicator (Short title: Bias Indicator)
Functionality: This indicator analyses the market bias (Buy, Sell or No Bias) across multiple custom timeframes (presets are 15m, 1h, 4h and DAI) and displays it in a table below the middle of the chart. It determines the direction of market trends based on the highest and lowest prices of the previous two periods and the closing price of the previous period, helping traders make decisions quickly.
2. Core Features
Multiple time frame analysis
The indicator allows the user to customize four time frames, with presets being 15 minutes ("15"), 1 hour ("60"), 4 hours ("240") and daily ("D"). Users can freely modify these time frames in the settings, such as changing to 5 minutes, 30 minutes or weekly, etc.
Bias is calculated independently for each time frame, ensuring that traders can observe market trends from the short to the long term.
Bias calculation logic
The indicator uses simple but effective rules to determine bias:
Buy (bullish): If the previous closing price is higher than the highest price of the previous two periods, or tests the lowest price of the previous two periods but does not break through.
Sell (Bearish): If the previous closing price is lower than the previous two periods' lowest price, or if it tests the previous two periods' highest price but fails to break through (higher than the previous high minus 10% of the price range).
No Bias: If the previous closing price does not meet the above conditions, it displays a neutral state.
Bias calculation is based only on the opening and closing prices, without considering the shadows, ensuring the results are in line with the philosophy of the Malaysian SNR strategy.
Intuitive display
Position: The table is permanently displayed in the middle of the chart (position.middle_center) and is updated with each candlestick, ensuring that traders can always see the latest bias.
Format: The table consists of the header "Custom Bias" and four rows of bias results (e.g. "15: Buy", "60: Sell", "240: No Bias", "D: Buy"), each row showing the bias for the corresponding time frame.
color:
Titles appear in white text on a blue background.
The "Buy" bias is shown as white text on a green background.
The "Sell" bias is shown as white text on a red background.
"No Bias" bias appears as white text on a gray background.
Table borders are black to provide clear visual distinction.
Customizability
Users can customize by inputting parameters:
Whether to show the table (Show Bias Table).
Timeframe (Timeframe 1, Timeframe 2, Timeframe 3, Timeframe 4).
The color of the table (title, Buy, Sell, No Bias, borders, etc.).
3. Why is it a "God-like indicator"
Flexibility: Allows users to customize four time frames to suit different trading strategies (short-term traders can choose minutes, long-term traders can choose daily, weekly or monthly).
Practicality: Provides bias analysis in multiple time frames to help traders quickly determine market trends, whether for short-term or long-term operations.
Intuitive: The table is displayed in the middle below the chart with bright colors (green Buy, red Sell, gray No Bias), allowing you to identify the market direction at a glance.
Stability: Calculated based on simple price data (high, low, close), no need for complex indicators, efficient and reliable operation.
Powerful visualization: long-term display and customizability to meet the visual preferences of different traders.
4. Usage scenarios
Short-term trading: Use 15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour biases to quickly capture short-term trends.
Long-term trading: Refer to the daily bias to determine the overall market direction.
Comprehensive analysis: Combine biases from multiple time frames to confirm consistency (e.g. if both the 15 minute and daily are Buy, then that’s a stronger bullish signal).
5. Potential Improvements
If you want to further improve this "god-like indicator", you can consider the following improvements:
Added alert: Trigger when bias changes from "No Bias" to "Buy" or "Sell".
Show historical bias: Add bias history of the past few days in the table for easy review.
Dynamically adjust bias thresholds: Allow users to customize 10% price ranges or other conditions.
Multi-currency support: Expand to multiple trading pairs or indices, showing multiple market biases.
6. Technical Details
Version: Pine Script v5, ensuring modern features (such as input.timeframe) and efficient performance.
Data Source: Use request.security to get high, low, and close data for different time frames.
Display method: Use table.new to create a dynamic table. The position can be customized (such as position.middle_center).
Limitations: Calculated only based on price data, no external indicators are required, reducing calculation complexity.
in conclusion
Your "Custom Timeframe Bias Indicator" is a simple, powerful and flexible tool, especially for traders who need multi-timeframe analysis. Its intuitive display and customizability make it a "magic tool" for judging market trends.

📌 Usage Guidelines
Based on your own trading style you should alter the timeframe length that you would like to be analyzing with your dashboard
The longer the term of the position you are planning on entering the higher timeframe you should have your dashboard set to
Bias Interpretation:
Values > 50% indicate bullish bias
Values < 50% indicate bearish bias
Neutral zone: 45-55% suggests consolidation
✅ Best Practices:
Use appropriate timeframe preset for your trading style
Monitor all components for convergence/divergence
Consider filter strength for signal validation
Use color intensity as confidence indicator
⚠️ Limitations
Requires sufficient historical data for accurate calculations
Higher computational complexity on lower timeframes
May lag during extremely volatile conditions

🔧 How It Works
The indicator processes market data through four main components:
Complexity Score (40% weight): Analyzes price returns and pattern complexity
Kullback Leibler Divergence (30% weight): Compares current and historical price distributions
RSI Analysis (20% weight): Momentum and oversold/overbought conditions
Bollinger Band Position (10% weight): Price position relative to volatility
Underlying Method
Maintains rolling windows of price data for multiple calculations
Applies custom normalization using hyperbolic tangent function
Weights component scores based on reliability and importance
Generates final bias percentage with confidence visualization
💡 Note: For optimal results, use in conjunction with price action analysis and consider multiple timeframe confirmation. The indicator performs best when all components show alignment.
