The moment a candle closes— Are you still glancing at the corner of your screen to check the time? Market Rhythm is a countdown timer built for day traders, delivering candle close timing through sound, color, and vibration. Synced to NTP standard time, it never misses a second. [Sound familiar?] - Entered a trade right before the close, only to get reversed on the next candle - Kept checking the clock instead of analyzing the chart - Couldn't stop wondering "how many seconds left?" [Market Rhythm solves this] An analog clock on the left, a donut countdown timer on the right. Colors shift from teal to yellow to red as time runs out, with a pulsing heartbeat animation in the final 3 seconds. You'll always know "how many seconds left" from your peripheral vision—without looking away from your charts. [Two Sound Modes] - Minimal: Tick-tick-tick...chime (subtle time signal) - Rhythm: Metronome + cymbal (feel the beat) [Key Features] - High-precision countdown synced to NTP - Real-time 1-minute and 5-minute candle close timer - Supports 10 major exchanges worldwide (TSE, NYSE, NASDAQ, LSE, HKEX, SSE, KRX, Xetra, ASX, BSE) - Independent sound and vibration toggles - Demo mode available outside market hours [Pro (Monthly Subscription)] - Switch freely between all market presets - 24/7 mode (for crypto and forex) - 3-min, 10-min, 15-min, and 60-min timeframes - No ads Lock in the rhythm of every candle close.
