ATR Label For ThinkOrSwim

[qinking127]

I try to add a label to show daily ATR on 1 min chart. but it only shows 1 min ATR. is there a way to change time period?

def atr = atr();

You can only reference a larger aggregation, and well, it doesn't get much smaller than one minute... So even though I don't entirely understand what you're asking, I am going to take a guess and say, no, its not possible. You're going to have to be more clear with your question.

I am using 1 min chart to trade. I want to add a label on the 1 min chart to show the daily ATR. If I use this code to get ATR. it will give me the ATR based on the 1 min candles. but I want to get the ATR based on the daily candle. Is there way to do it? Hopefully this is a little bit more clear.

Try this

#

#declare lower;

input length = 14;
input averageType = AverageType.WILDERS;
input agg = AggregationPeriod.DAY;
def h = high(period = agg);
def c = close(period = agg);
def l = low(period = agg);

def ATR = MovingAverage(averageType, TrueRange(h, c, l), length);
#ATR.SetDefaultColor(GetColor(8));
addlabel(1,"Daily ATR: " + astext(ATR), color.yellow);

Try this

thank you so much. this is what I am looking for.

This should fix that issue.

Whenever that happens, try the fix to the def pcClose close(symbol = "$PCALL") as shown in the code below
1) By having any missing periods in def pcClose, shown as isnan(close(symbol = "$PCALL")) ,
filled by referencing those to the prior value of pcClose, shown as pcClose[1]
2) otherwise pcClose will use the actual value of close(symbol = "$PCALL").

Hey SleepyZ, I was wondering if you could help me out with this one: So I have an ATR label that has the same issue as the last P/C label you helped me out with. It's only being displayed on certain time frames but not all. I was trying out what you had mentioned above with the closing command code but still having issues. The label does not display on higher time frames and I'm trying to figure out how to get it to be displayed across all time frames. Thank you for your time and help greatly appreciated. Here is the code:

input length = 14;
input averageType = AverageType.WILDERS;
input agg1 = AggregationPeriod.DAY;
input agg2 = AggregationPeriod.WEEK;
input agg3 = AggregationPeriod.MONTH;
def h1 = high(period = agg1);
def c1 = close(period = agg1);
def l1 = low(period = agg1);
def h2 = high(period = agg2);
def c2 = close(period = agg2);
def l2 = low(period = agg2);
def h3 = high(period = agg3);
def c3 = close(period = agg3);
def l3 = low(period = agg3);

def ATR1 = MovingAverage(averageType, TrueRange(h1, c1, l1), length);
def ATR2 = MovingAverage(averageType, TrueRange(h2, c2, l2), length);
def ATR3 = MovingAverage(averageType, TrueRange(h3, c3, l3), length);

AddLabel(1, "ATR D: " + AsText(ATR1) + " W: " + AsText(ATR2) + " M: " + AsText(ATR3), CreateColor(255, 255, 255));

Similar process

input agg1 = AggregationPeriod.DAY;
input agg2 = AggregationPeriod.WEEK;
input agg3 = AggregationPeriod.MONTH;
def h1 = high(period = agg1);

def c2 = close(period = agg2);
def l2 = low(period = agg2);
def h3 = high(period = agg3);
def c3 = close(period = agg3);
def l3 = low(period = agg3);

def ATR1 = if IsNaN(MovingAverage(averageType, TrueRange(h1, c1, l1), length))
           then ATR1[1]
           else MovingAverage(averageType, TrueRange(h1, c1, l1), length);
def ATR2 = if IsNaN(MovingAverage(averageType, TrueRange(h2, c2, l2), length))
           then ATR1[1]
           else MovingAverage(averageType, TrueRange(h2, c2, l2), length);
def ATR3 = if IsNaN(MovingAverage(averageType, TrueRange(h3, c3, l3), length))
           then ATR1[1]
           else MovingAverage(averageType, TrueRange(h3, c3, l3), length);

AddLabel(1, "ATR D: " + AsText(ATR1) + " W: " + AsText(ATR2) + " M: " + AsText(ATR3), CreateColor(255, 255, 255));

Yep, I was way off. Thank you again for all your help @SleepyZ!

 

[iacontrol]

Please anybody can provide the ATR for Thinkorwim?

Any of the above or this one:

##### TS ATR
##### Made By Leonard
##### Version 1
##### 4/23/2015

declare upper;

input ATRLength = 14;
input averagetype = AverageType.WILDERS;
input BasePeriod = AggregationPeriod.DAY;
input showlabel = yes;

def ATR = MovingAverage (averagetype, TrueRange(high(period = BasePeriod)[1], close(period = BasePeriod)[1], low(period = BasePeriod)[1]), ATRLength);

def Today_High = Highest(high(period = baseperiod)[0], 1);
def Today_Low = Lowest(low(period =baseperiod)[0], 1);


AddLabel(showlabel,  "ATR:" +round(ATR,2));
