ICT Hydra Macros

This indicator allows you to set a colored box at each time frame specified as Macro.
The purpose of this customizable color box is to be able to identify the start and end of the desired time frame, as well as the highest and lowest price during that time frame.

It also allows to place the schedule in numbers inside the box in order to quickly identify the painted time frame.

The indicator has up to 26 customizable boxes both in time frame and color. This allows to have different time frames that each Trader considers convenient for his strategy.

Settings:

General Settings:
  • Limit Days to Draw: Indicates the number of past days in which boxes will be drawn. Default value is 5 past days.
  • Timeframe Limit: Indicates the maximum time frame in which the boxes will be displayed. Default value is 5 minutes.
  • Timezone: Indicates the desired Timezone to calculate the schedules that will be configured later.

Macros Settings:
  • Show Macros Boxes: Enables or disables all boxes. It is enabled by default.
  • Display Text: Enables or disables all labels inside the boxes containing the time frame corresponding to the box. It is enabled by default.
  • Macros Transparency: Indicates the transparency percentage of the selected color for all boxes. By default it contains a value of 80% transparency.


  • Macro 1-26: Indicates the start time and end time, as well as the color of the individual box. Each Macro can be enabled or disabled individually. Note that the boxes of each Macro will be visible only if the "Show Macros Boxes" property is enabled. By default, there are specified certain Macros or time frames with a duration of 20 minutes, which are Manipulation or Expansion Macros that mentor Hydra has taught us based on the knowledge that ICT has provided for everyone.

The objective of this indicator is to provide a visual tool on the Macros or Time Frames in which the Trader can easily observe the desired schedule and which will automatically adjust according to the time and price on all 4 sides of the box.
