Original open-source Pine Script v6 utility
Pine v6 MTF Confirmation Timing Inspector
A TradingView diagnostic that separates the last confirmed higher-timeframe close from the still-developing value and makes the timing state visible on a lower-timeframe chart.
The engineering problem
Why this tool exists
Multi-timeframe specifications often say “use the higher-timeframe close” without defining whether that means the final closed value or a value that can still change intrabar. The inspector exposes both states so alerts, screenshots and acceptance tests can agree on timing.
Published capabilities
- Confirmed higher-timeframe close displayed as a stable step series
- Developing higher-timeframe close labelled as diagnostic-only
- State table showing the selected higher timeframe and timing status
- New higher-timeframe interval alert condition
- Reproducible 15-minute chart and 4-hour confirmation test
Engineering evidence
- Original Pine Script v6 source published under MPL-2.0
- Explicit separation of confirmed and still-changing higher-timeframe data
- Public repository with usage, limitations and reproducible checks
What this case study does not claim
- The utility diagnoses timing; it does not produce trade entries or predict price.
- The developing value is expected to change before the higher-timeframe candle closes.
