Think or Swim Code/indicators

[olie1018 10]

Do you have a picture of what the indicator is suppose to look like? Thanks, Jim

[elovemer 10]

it does not work because when you paste it in

 

it puts spaces in that were not originally there

 

you need to go line by line and wherever it is highlighted.... take out the spaces that should not be there

 

such as "histo gram" should be "histogram"

 

easy to fix it manually

 

Hello,

 

I copied your 15 min scalp and pasted into thinkscript and i'm getting a message that the code is incorrect... Any advice?

[elovemer 10]

yes ... here you go

elovemer,

 

You may want to start using the 'wrap code tag' which is the '#' character in the tool bar. Should clear up issues when coping and pasting.

....this is meant for large range days....

... especially at the open

 

some stuff i coded....

scalps for 15 min chart

olor(8));

[elovemer 10]

this is meant to signal reversal bars

 

reversal signal

 

------------------------------------

;

[elovemer 10]

this is meant to show body by volume for down bars only

 

demand

-------------------------------);

[elovemer 10]

this is good to show the best place to enter on the hourly chart

 

decrease in pivot range

--------------------------------------

;

[elovemer 10]

....this is good for drip down days .... to pinpoint where the buyers come in on the one minute chart

....or for spike down at the open type of days

 

volume by body by range

--------------------------------

));

[elovemer 10]

.... on hourly, this shows the pivots for the last 3 hours

... this is good for showing how strong the trend is

 

...entry should be made when pivot range is low

... low pivot range will also show possible reversal points

3 bar pivots

I'm working on an pattern recognition code and I'm stuck, because the online TOS code manual has its limitations. Can someone in this forum help me? I'm having getting errors on lines 13

def Condition = if(Pattern then 0 else 1);

and 16

alert(Condition, "Piercing Pattern", Alert.BAR, sound.Chime);

.

def H = high();
def O = open();
def C = close();
def L = low();
def BodyOpen = Max(open, close);
def BodyClose = Min(open, close);
def Body = BodyOpen - BodyClose;
def Pattern = H[1] > H[0]
&& L[1] > L[0] 
&& O[1] > O[0] 
&& C[1] > C[0] 
&& C[1] > (O[0] - C[0] / 2);
def Condition = if(Pattern then 0 else 1);
AddChartLabel(yes, L[0], if  Condition then "Bullish Piercing Pattern" else "", color.green);
alert(Condition, "Piercing Pattern", Alert.BAR, sound.Chime);
plot null = double.nan;

Thanks,

range decrease

... this is better.

 

the idea is to try to pinpoint where the the range has decreased the most....

... in order to identify where the next thrust in price will most likely appear

 

.... a trader wanting to get in on the next move, wants to enter during low range

.... and at a pivot point

 

----------------------------

declare lower;

input ATRLength = 14;

 

def HA = high[1];

def HB = high[2];

def HC = high[3];

def LA = low[1];

def calc_PH = Calc_PP + calc_PR;

def calc_PL = Calc_PP - calc_PR;

 

plot ATR = 1/

(absvalue(calc_PH-calc_PL))

;

#plot ATR =1/(AbsValue(calc_PH - calc_PL)) ;

#def hum = (AbsValue(calc_PH - calc_PL)) ;

 

ATR.SetDefaultColor(GetColor(8));

I don't see a relative strength index (RSI) as an indicator in the TOS platform. Does anyone have code for this?

 

Thanks,

StockJock

[RandomTask 10]

It comes with TOS...RSIWilder.

[elovemer 10]

for identifying trend

 

==========================================

declare lower;

input ATRLength = 14;

plot ATR = (AbsValue(close - open));

 

ATR.SetDefaultColor(GetColor(8));

ATR.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HISTOGRAM);

ATR.DefineColor("Positive", Color.green);

ATR.DefineColor("Negative", Color.gray);

ATR.DefineColor("other", Color.red);

 

ATR.AssignValueColor

( if ( (high > high[2])

and

( (absvalue(close-open)) > absvalue(close[1]-open[1]) ) )

and (close > open)

then ATR.color("Positive")

 

else if ( (low < low[2])

and

( (absvalue(close-open)) > absvalue(close[1]-open[1]) ) )

and (close<open)

then ATR.color("other") else ATR.color("negative"));

 

 

# if ( (low < low[1]) then ... else

Hi, I use volumen profile indicator. The code is:

 

input pricePerRowMode = {default AUTOMATIC, TICKSIZE, CUSTOM};

input customRowHeight = 1.0;

input timePerProfile = {default CHART, HOUR, DAY, "2 DAYS", "3 DAYS", "4 DAYS", WEEK, MONTH, "OPT EXP"};

input profiles = 1000;

input onExpansion = yes;

 

def period;

switch (timePerProfile){

case CHART:

period = AggregationPeriod.CHART;

case HOUR:

period = aggregationPeriod.HOUR;

case DAY:

period = AggregationPeriod.DAY;

case "2 DAYS":

period = AggregationPeriod.TWO_DAY S;

case "3 DAYS":

period = AggregationPeriod.THREE_D AYS;

case "4 DAYS":

period = AggregationPeriod.FOUR_DA YS;

case WEEK:

period = AggregationPeriod.WEEK;

case MONTH:

period = AggregationPeriod.MONTH;

case "OPT EXP":

period = AggregationPeriod.OPT_EXP ;

}

 

def heigth;

switch (pricePerRowMode){

case AUTOMATIC:

heigth = PricePerRow.AUTOMATIC;

case TIckSize:

heigth = PricePerRow.TICKSIZE;

case CUSTOM:

heigth = customRowHeight;

}

 

DefineGlobalColor("Profil e", GetColor(1));

addProfile(Profile.VOLUME , "timePerProfile" = period, "onExpansion" = onExpansion, "numberOfProfiles" = profiles, "pricePerRow" = heigth, "color"=globalColor("Prof ile"));

 

 

The question is: How I see as histogram ?

 

Thanks.

[Stock.Jock 10]

To have your indicator show a histogram, you need to have two formulae in your code and then calculate the difference. For example, I made a stochastics divergence histogram and the two lines of code that made the histogram are:

plot Diff = FullK - FullD;
Diff.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HISTOGRAM);

StockJock

[elovemer 10]

that is freaking cool. :0)

thanks for that.

 

Hi, I w I see as histogram ?

 

Thanks.

[RandomTask 10]

FYI - The VolumeProfile and TPOProfile were included in last weekend's release of TOS. You don't need the code above as you can just add VolumeProfile or TPOProfile from the default studies list.

[wowzers 10]

It comes with TOS...RSIWilder.

 

Is there any way to make the RSIWILDER multi-time-frame? Any place or person you can direct me to that would be able to code it???

 

Thanks in advance
