Trapper Magnifying Glass - Bar Decomposer — Last Visible Bar
Headline
Decompose any higher-timeframe bar into lower-timeframe candles directly on the chart. Zoom/pan reactive, session-accurate, auto-fit inset, and compliant with TradingView placement limits.
Quick Start
Add the indicator and choose a Child TF (minutes) (e.g., 1, 5, 10, 15).
The inset follows the last visible bar on your screen. Adjust Right separation / Mini width / Gap / Vertical exaggeration as needed.
Leave Show HUD label OFF by default. Turn it on only if you want a compact readout.
Overview
This tool draws a miniature, on-chart inset of lower-timeframe candles that make up the currently viewed higher-timeframe bar. It stays on the main price chart (not in a separate pane), respects zoom/pan, compresses itself to fit available space, and adheres to TradingView’s 500-bar object placement limit.
The design goal is micro-structure inspection without changing the chart timeframe.
What Makes It Different
On-chart inset (not a separate indicator panel) for true visual context.
Zoom/Pan reactive to the last visible bar — works naturally as you navigate.
Auto-fit logic keeps the inset readable while staying inside TradingView’s future-bars limit.
Session-accurate decomposition: uses TradingView’s own lower-timeframe OHLC, exactly within the parent bar’s time window.
Strictly compliant: no synthetic bars, no repaint tricks, no lookahead.
How It Works
Child data is fetched with request.security_lower_tf(syminfo.tickerid, <childTf>, open/high/low/close).
Only closed lower-TF bars inside the parent bar’s time window are returned by TradingView.
The script maps each child bar to an inset candle (body + wick) scaled to the parent bar’s price range and placed to the right of the parent’s position.
The inset tracks the last visible bar so it always stays relevant to what you’re inspecting.

Session Behavior (Important)
TradingView constructs bars strictly by exchange sessions. For US equities (regular session 09:30–16:00, 390 minutes):
On a 1h chart you will see 7 bars per day:
09:30–10:00 (30 minutes)
10:00–11:00, 11:00–12:00, 12:00–13:00, 13:00–14:00, 14:00–15:00 (five full hours)
15:00–16:00 (full hour)
Decomposing the 09:30–10:00 bar into 1m returns 30 minis (not 60).
Decomposing 10:00–11:00 returns 60 minis, as expected.
The last hour (15:00–16:00) decomposes to 60 minis once they exist (i.e., immediately after each child bar closes). If you are mid-session, you will see only the minis that have closed so far.
This is by design and ensures the inset reflects the true lower-timeframe structure TradingView has for that exact bar window. Nothing is synthesized.
Live vs Confirmed Bars
Confirmed bars (historical) always decompose to a full, correct count of child minis for that parent window.
Live bars (currently forming) only return child minis that have already closed. Mid-hour on a 1h chart with 10m children, you might see 3, 4, or 5 minis depending on elapsed time.
This script’s default experience focuses on the last visible bar and displays whatever the platform provides at that moment. The HUD (when enabled) includes the parent bar duration in minutes to make short session bars explicit.
Auto-Fit and Placement Limits
TradingView prevents drawing objects beyond 500 bars into the future. The inset’s right edge is automatically clamped to stay within that boundary. If the requested number of minis would overflow the allowed space, the script proportionally compresses mini width/gap (down to your configured minimums). If necessary, it draws only as many minis as safely fit — favoring stability over clutter.
Styling Tips
For dense decompositions (e.g., 1m inside 1h), set:
Mini width = 1, Gap = 0, Auto-fit = ON, Right separation = 7–12.
Increase Vertical exaggeration to highlight wick-to-body differences when the parent bar is narrow.
Keep HUD OFF for publishing and screenshots unless you’re highlighting counts or session duration.
Notes & Limitations
Child arrays show closed bars only. No forming mini is displayed to avoid misleading totals.
If you reload a chart or switch symbols/timeframes, the most recent confirmed bar’s arrays may be empty on the very first calculation frame; the script guards against this and will draw on the next update.
The tool is an overlay visualization, not a signal generator; there are no alerts or trading advice.
Performance: heavy decompositions on very fast symbols/timeframes can add many objects. Auto-fit and minimal widths help.
Compliance
Uses only native TradingView data (request.security_lower_tf).
No repainting and no lookahead.
No external feeds, synthetic candles, or hidden calculations that would misrepresent the underlying data.
Fully respects TradingView’s object placement constraints.
Recommended Defaults (for broad usability)
Child TF: 5 or 15 (depending on your HTF).
Right separation: 7–12
Mini width / Gap: 2 / 0 for clarity, 1 / 0 for dense fits.
Auto-fit: ON
HUD: OFF
Troubleshooting
“Why aren’t there 60 one-minute minis in this 1h bar?”
Either the parent bar is a session-short bar (09:30–10:00 = 30 minutes) or you are viewing a live bar mid-hour; only closed minis appear.
Inset clipped or not visible to the right:
Increase Max bars ahead to use (Auto-Fit group), reduce Mini width/Gap, or reduce Right separation.
Nothing draws on first load:
Wait for the next bar update, or navigate the chart so the last visible bar changes; arrays refresh as data becomes available.
Change Log
v1.0 – Initial public release.
On-chart inset, zoom/pan reactive, auto-fit width.
Session-accurate lower-TF decomposition.
HUD label toggle (off by default) with child TF, bar count, and parent duration.
Hardened array handling for confirmed snapshots.
