Hello everyone, Is it possible to easily convert a tradingview indicator in order to have a study for Sierra Chart without knowing anything about programming? I've never done that and I would like this indicator: https://fr.tradingview.com/script/90gGxKtX-Shannon-Entropy-V2/ Entropy measures the data unpredictability (based on Shannon entropy) of the market and it can be an amazing tool combined with delta and imbalances but unfortunately this indicator does not exist in Sierra Thank you in advance for your help |

Short answer: No. Long answer: The programming differences between the two languages is not the main issue. Like many other platforms, TradingView numbers their bars from newest to oldest, from right to left. Sierra Chart numbers bars from left to right, which means the same bar will keep its number as bars are added. Each bar is a part of a set of arrays. Converting between the two methodologies is very complex. You can probably find someone to do this, for a fee, and the original developer's permission if you intend to keep it closed source. As a derivative work, it would have to be open-source without this permission. If you know nothing about programming, this is not where you want to start. You are better off understanding the underlying mathematics of what the Tradingview code is doing. Then either develop it yourself or pay someone to create it in ACSIL. This would be an original creation, not a derivative, as you cannot copyright ideas. |

Hey bradh, thanks for your honest answer I appreciate it. By any chance, do you know a or multiple studies present in Sierra that comes closest to what I'm looking for? Market entropy |
