Settings
All the settings live in the indicator's properties: right-click the chart > Indicators List > Stancel Tempo > Properties, Inputs tab.
None of them is needed to start. Everything ships with a value that works.
Colours
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
InpPaleta | Picks one of the four combinations below |
InpColTokio | The Tokyo session colour |
InpColLondres | The London session colour |
InpColNuevaYork | The New York session colour |
InpColMuerta | The dead zone colour |
InpColRollover | The rollover colour |
All five colours ship empty (None in MetaTrader's colour picker), and that means "use the palette's". The moment you set one, it beats the palette and the other four keep coming from it. You can change just the one you dislike without having to pick all five.
The four palettes
Stancel — the house one: amber, blue and slate. The amber is not spent on any session, because it is the "look at this" colour, reserved for high-impact releases.
Oscuro Pro — the restrained one, for whoever wants the data and not the decoration. It is the only one that respects the terminal's high-contrast theme, so it is the one to use if you do not tell colours apart easily.
Bloomberg — black and amber, the skin of the terminal the whole trade recognises.
Tokio Night — neon over indigo. It is the one that shows up in a screenshot, and for that very reason it is not the default: eye-catching is something you choose, not something we impose.
New York is blue in all four. The shade changes, the colour does not: switching palette never costs you the reference you had already learnt.
What is shown
| Setting | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|
InpVerSombreado | Yes | Shades the sessions over the candles |
InpVerKillzones | Yes | Draws the killzone strip |
InpVerDatos | Yes | Marks economic releases and their countdown |
InpVerLeyenda | Yes | The colour legend box at the bottom |
InpSombraPct | 22 | Shading strength, 5 to 60 % |
InpSombraPct accepts 5 to 60. Below 5 it would not be visible, and above 60 it covers the candles — which is the opposite of what shading is for. If you type a number outside that range it clamps to the nearest limit instead of drawing something unreadable.
Settings belong to each chart
If you run Tempo on three charts, each keeps its own. Changing the palette on one does not touch the others.
To reuse a set of settings: set the indicator up the way you want it and, in the properties window, press Save to write a .set file. On the next chart you load it with Load.
