OPEN-SOURCE SCRIPT

Hide Active Bar

We are not supposed to make trading decisions based on active bars (bars that have not closed), right? Well sometimes my trigger finger gets a little twitchy when I'm awaiting an entry and an active candle starts to pull away or I'm in a trade and an active candle pushes against me.

Therefore, I made a VERY simple indicator that ghosts the active bar. You can see the outline but the body is transparent to emphasize that you should await its close before deciding what to do...

Very simple script but hopefully it will help me (and others) to remain a little calmer in the moment.

In case the bar recolour does not show in the main image - here it is below.
