SOUND ALERT - Optional sound notification when a new bar forms. Never miss a candle close while reviewing another chart or timeframe.

ELAPSED / REMAINING - Below the timer, a compact line shows both the elapsed time and the time left in human-readable format (e.g. "45m12s elapsed - 14m48s left").

Full Theme: Deep space background with steel-palette candles, muted grid, and institutional color scheme. Transforms your chart into a clean, professional workspace.

Opaque Only: Keeps your existing chart colours, only ensures the panel renders cleanly on top.

COLLAPSE / EXPAND - One-click toggle button in the title bar. Collapsed mode shows a compact 30-pixel strip with the brand name, symbol, timeframe, and a live countdown. Expands back to the full panel instantly. Minimizes chart footprint when you need screen space.
