Guys are there any of you that can convert this Tradingview indicator option into TOS script (or make an indictor like it)? It's basically a three candle formation for high and low pivot points which form a line at that pivot point. I have made a pattern in TOS but that only gives me a point indicator on the last 3rd candle of the formation which is no where close to this. I have copied the pivot source out of the TV script code and posted it below if that helps, and if needed I can post the full indicator code if needed. Any help with this would greatly be appreciated.

I only want the pivot point lines which is part of this Tradingview code:

Thank you Samer800, works very well. Here's the one I have been using lately that I found somewhere. It's okay but not as good as yours.

def swingHigh = high > high[1] and high > high[2] and high > high[-1] and high > high[-2];
rec trackSwingHigh = if swingHigh[2] then high[2] else trackSwingHigh[1];
plot swingHighLevels = trackSwingHigh[-2];
swingHighLevels.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
def swinglow = low < low[1] and low < low[2] and low < low[-1] and low < low[-2];
rec trackSwinglow = if swinglow[2] then low[2] else trackSwinglow[1];
plot swinglowLevels = trackSwinglow[-2];
swinglowLevels.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);

Hi Samer800,

Can you please help to improvise it by adding an arrow head pointer (or a caret similar to fractal pattern) to the candle that framed structure break, like shown below?

Hi Samer800,

Never mind my request.
I see you have done something similar and more in this post: https://usethinkscript.com/threads/order-block-finder-for-thinkorswim.12162/

There is a bit of complexity and excess functionality there in the code. I turned off some of the plots and was able to get what I needed. I was just after the candle marker :)

Thank you!

@Sree Do you mind sharing what you came up with..Thanks

TY...Actually I was looking for what you took out of the code to create that.. So in essence it is the new code that was created.

Apologies if my comment was misleading. Like I had mentioned earlier, I just turned off a few plots in the settings menu - thats all. no code changes were applied.

You weren't misleading I think I was. I wanted to know what you turned off and somehow went off the rails with asking about the code. LOL
 
@Sree In working with this concept I found that using +5 works best with what I'm doing. I'm not good with coding so I'm hoping you would be able to help me with adding those lines to be extended to the right side of the chart. TIA

Honestly, I think the line is just the right size to show the fractal nature of the bars. If extended to right, since it cant be erased once its drawn, as the chart grows to the right the lines will be present. Over a period of time, the chart will look loaded with horizontal lines and cluttered. just my 2 cents :)

Thanks and I see the point and it will become too cluttered which is exactly what I don't want so I spent the weekend going over some things and correlating to working with stocks as opposed to futures...Appreciate the feedback..
