Filter charts: see why a bot is waiting, entering, or exiting

When a strategy has several filters, the main question is not only “what did I configure?” It is “what is the market doing right now, and why is the bot waiting, entering, adding, or exiting?”

This update makes that answer visible on the chart. Filters can now be displayed directly next to candles, levels, and backtest markers, so you can compare the rule settings with the actual market state without switching between the form and the chart.

What changed on the chart

The chart now has an Indicators menu for strategy filters. You can keep only the filters you need visible and hide the rest when they are not part of the current analysis.

This is useful when a bot has several rules at once: RSI can explain why entry is allowed, VWAP can show whether price is still below the average, and an exit filter can stay hidden until you start reviewing exits.

Cleaner scales for filters with different values

Some indicators should not share one scale. RSI may be around 35, while Bollinger %B may be around 0.36. When those values are forced into the same lower area, one line becomes hard to read.

Now indicators with different ranges are separated into compact panes. Price-based filters such as VWAP stay on the main candle chart, while oscillators and other non-price values get their own space. The result is easier to scan and closer to how traders expect an analytical chart to behave.

Candle-by-candle filter details

When you move across the chart, the hint for the selected candle shows the important information for every visible filter: value, condition, timeframe, threshold, whether the rule passed, and the key parameters used for the calculation.

This helps answer practical questions quickly: “Was RSI already below 35 here?”, “Did Bollinger %B pass at the same time?”, “Was VWAP still blocking the entry?”

Entry, exit, grid, and funding filters are separated

Filters are now grouped by what they control: entry, exit, grid adds, and funding logic. That makes a strategy easier to read, especially after a backtest where many rules can appear on the same chart.

Start with entry filters to understand why a trade opened. Then enable exit or grid filters only when you review those parts of the trade. The chart stays clean, but the full strategy context remains available.

Higher timeframe filters no longer look broken

A higher timeframe filter can be used on a lower timeframe chart. For example, a 15-minute RSI can be shown while you inspect 5-minute candles.

The line now remains visible on every candle and updates only when its own 15-minute calculation bar changes. This avoids confusing gaps while still reflecting how the rule is actually calculated.

Better backtest review

Backtest charts now use the same filter controls as bot creation. You can turn filters on and off, switch the chart timeframe, and inspect trades with the same visual language.

Zooming and resizing should also feel steadier. If you change a parameter on a visible filter, the chart recalculates the series and keeps it visible instead of making it disappear.

The TradingView signal filter still behaves as a current-signal or event indicator. It is not replayed as historical market data in backtests, because webhook events are not part of stored candle history.

The goal is simple: less guessing, faster strategy review, and a chart that shows not only where price moved, but also what your rules were seeing at that moment.
