Candle #40 Sentinel – A Simple Visual Marker for Chart Context

What it is:
Candle #40 Sentinel is a minimalistic visual aid that marks the candle from exactly 40 bars ago on your chart. It creates a clear reference point to help you assess whether your trendline is based on enough price history to be considered reliable.

What it does:
Draws a frame marker on the candle 40 bars before the current one.

Gives you an instant sense of how much historical data your trendline or setup is working with.

Helps prevent decisions based on short-term patterns with little statistical weight.

Why use it:
Context is key: Many trendlines look strong but are based on too few candles to be meaningful. This tool helps you visually gauge that.

Stay disciplined: Only act on setups with enough data behind them.

Save time: No need to count candles manually – the chart tells you instantly.

Who it's for:
Traders who use trendlines and want a quick way to assess data depth.

Anyone looking to bring more structure and discipline to visual chart analysis.

Note:
This tool does not generate signals, does not calculate trends, and uses no classic indicators. It simply draws a reference at the 40th candle back – giving you a visual anchor point to work with.

Candle #40 Sentinel – Let your setups breathe before you trust them.
Because trendlines drawn over 10 candles aren’t trendlines – they’re guesses.
