I need help with a study for plotting where extreme ticks are on the chart. I know I can overly the tick below my chart but what I want is just to plot extreme moves on my chart such as +800, +1,000 ... etc. I have this coded in thinkorswim but now am looking to code it into Sierra. See attached screenshot from thinkorswim for what I am hoping this to look like. A dot gets plotted when the Tick goes to an extreme level. The more extreme the level the larger the dot. Any help would be appreciated. input dotOffset = 1.0; input HighThreshold = 1000; input LowThreshold = -1000; def tickDataLow = low("$TICK"); def tickDataHigh = high("$TICK"); def tickClose = close("$TICK"); def isLow = If((tickDataLow < LowThreshold), 1, 0); def isHigh = If((tickDataHigh > HighThreshold), 1, 0); def plotcolor = If(isLow, 6, 5); plot TickDot = If(isLow and !isHigh, low - dotOffset, If(isHigh and !isLow , high + dotOffset, Double.NaN)); TickDot.SetStyle(Curve.POINTS); TickDot.AssignValueColor(GetColor(plotcolor)); TickDot.SetLineWeight(3); AddLabel(isHigh, Concat("High Tick = ", If(isHigh > 0, tickDataHigh, 0)), Color.GREEN); AddLabel(isLow, Concat("Low Tick = ", If(isLow > 0, tickDataLow, 0)), Color.DOWNTICK); |

Anyone have anything similar to this in terms of plotting another indicator over a price chart? What I need is for when the tick is > 1,000 or 800 it would plot a dot on my chart offset from the bar. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks |

Create a chart with TICK-NYSE Make a note of the Chart Number (Press F5, # in the title bar) e.g. #10 Add Study: Color Bar Based on Alert Condition Settings and Inputs Tab: Short Name = TickGT1000 (this is just a label for you) Subgraphs Tab: Choose a Color; Draw Style=Point on High; Width/Size=11 (so you can see it quickly) Alerts Tab: Alert Condition= '=c>1000' (without the ' ) Make a note of the ID e.g. ID:1 On your symbol chart (ES, YM, NQ) Add Study: Study/Price Overlay Settings and Inputs: Study to Overlay; #10; TickGT1000 (ID:1) Done. In my images, the setting was used to print a green dot if the TICK-NYSE close was greater than 600. If you want the high of the bar instead of the close use '=h>1000' Date Time Of Last Edit: 2015-06-23 06:40:32

Did this stop working? I tried putting it in today into a few different locations and can't seem to get it going.
