Horizontal ATR

[opeyemiajoje]

Hi,

Can someone please assist on a TOS code to draw a horizontal line of 3 ATR (average true range) moves above and below the 21EMA

input emaLength     = 21;
input atrLength     = 14;
input atrMult       = 3;
input atrAvgType    = AverageType.WILDERS;

# 21 EMA of close
plot ema21 = ExpAverage(close, emaLength);
EMA21.SetDefaultColor(Color.CYAN);
EMA21.SetLineWeight(2);

# ATR based on Wilder's average of TrueRange
def tr  = TrueRange(high, close, low);
def atr = MovingAverage(atrAvgType, tr, atrLength);

# Levels: 3 ATR above and below the 21 EMA
plot upperATR = ema21 + atrMult * atr;
plot lowerATR = ema21 - atrMult * atr;

upperATR.SetDefaultColor(Color.GREEN);
lowerATR.SetDefaultColor(Color.RED);

upperATR.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
lowerATR.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);

upperATR.SetLineWeight(2);
lowerATR.SetLineWeight(2);

your code matches most of his words, but not his picture.
he wants horizontal lines

Hi,

Can someone please assist on a TOS code to draw a horizontal line of 3 ATR (average true range) moves above and below the 21EMA

here you go

draw horizontal ATR lines , x bars back, from last bar, based on prices on last bar.
you can pick how many bars back to start the lines.
i modified mc01439 code.

enable these lines to see continuous lines that follow the ema line.
#plot u1 = upperatr;
#plot l1 = loweratr;
