BarClock tells you exactly when the current candle closes, and shouts before it does. It never touches a price feed. Candle boundaries are pure clock maths, so when you ask for a warning ten seconds out, you get it ten seconds out - on the M1 scalp and on the daily close alike. WHAT IT DOES - Live countdowns for M1, M5, M15, M30, H1, H4 and D1, with multiple timeframes visible together. - One or two alerts per candle, at offsets you choose before the close. - A full-screen chronometer ring when one alert is running, and a three-up stack when several are. - H4 and D1 anchored to your broker's GMT offset, not to UTC, so the daily close lands where your charts put it. - Ten built-in alert sounds, plus support for importing your own audio file. - Custom vibration patterns, a haptic tick through the final ten seconds, and a screen flash. - A spoken countdown through the final ten seconds. - London, New York, Tokyo and Sydney session open and close alerts. - Session and weekday filters to silence alerts outside the periods you trade. - Four themes: Trading Desk, Daylight, OLED Black and Terminal. BUILT FOR THE WAY TRADERS ACTUALLY WATCH Alerts arrive as Time Sensitive notifications, so they cut through a Focus mode. Nothing is uploaded and no account is needed. There is no login or price data, and the countdown itself works offline. BarClock is a timing tool. It gives no trading advice, holds no positions and sees no market data.
