90% of the members attempting chatGPT scripting; do not provide good detailed specifications.

Members know what end result that they want but lack the ability to tell chatGPT, the step-by-step logic required to code a script to achieve that end result.
This results in chatGPT providing poor code.

Here is a video on how to successfully have chatGPT create functional scripts.

The above video, explains the basics of providing good specifications to AI which results in better scripts.

Need help. Made an attempt to convert TV pine script for Volume Composition.
https://www.tradingview.com/script/d4TDeuRU-Volume-composition-Buy-sell-active-passive/

No syntax errors returned but having problems making it a lower study. The converted script also does not produce any visible output on the chart.
#Begin Script
# Fetch volume data
def volume = volume;
def closePrice = close;

# Calculate buy and sell volume
def buyVol;
def sellVol;

if closePrice > closePrice[1] {
buyVol = volume;
sellVol = 0;
} else if closePrice < closePrice[1] {
buyVol = 0;
sellVol = volume;
} else {
buyVol = 0;
sellVol = 0;
}

# Calculate total buy and sell volume
def length = 20; # You can adjust this as needed
def totalBuyVol = Sum(buyVol, length);
def totalSellVol = Sum(sellVol, length);

# Calculate buy and sell volume percentages
def totalVol = totalBuyVol + totalSellVol;
def buyVolPerc = (totalBuyVol / totalVol) * 100;
def sellVolPerc = (totalSellVol / totalVol) * 100;

# Define conditions for high volume
input volThreshold = 70;
def highBuyVolCondition = buyVolPerc >= volThreshold;
def highSellVolCondition = sellVolPerc >= volThreshold;

# Define conditions for high active volume
input volAThreshold = 70;
def highBuyVolACondition = buyVolPerc >= volAThreshold;
def highSellVolACondition = sellVolPerc >= volAThreshold;

# Plot high volume conditions as bubbles
plot highBuyVolBubble = highBuyVolCondition;
plot highSellVolBubble = highSellVolCondition;

highBuyVolBubble.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_UP);
highBuyVolBubble.SetDefaultColor(Color.GREEN);
highBuyVolBubble.SetLineWeight(1);

highSellVolBubble.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_DOWN);
highSellVolBubble.SetDefaultColor(Color.RED);
highSellVolBubble.SetLineWeight(1);

# Plot high active volume conditions as bubbles

plot highSellVolABubble = highSellVolACondition;

highBuyVolABubble.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_UP);
highBuyVolABubble.SetDefaultColor(Color.BLUE);
highBuyVolABubble.SetLineWeight(1);

highSellVolABubble.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_DOWN);
highSellVolABubble.SetDefaultColor(Color.ORANGE);
highSellVolABubble.SetLineWeight(1);

I am tyring to fix this particular line that is highlighted in red in the TOS script as an error
plot bbUpper = bb.upperband;

Here is the script:

# Define length for calculations
input length = 14; # RSI length

# Calculate Bollinger Bands
def bb = BollingerBands(price = close, length = length, numDevDn = -2, numDevUp = 2);

# Plot Bollinger Bands Upper
plot bbUpper = bb.upperband;

# Calculate RSI
def rsi = RSI(length = length);

# Calculate lower highs and lower lows
def lowerHighs = high < high[1];
def lowerLows = low < low[1];

# Bearish condition 1: RSI above 70 in the last 7 days but now below 70
def condition1 = Highest(rsi, 7) > 70;
def condition2 = rsi < 70;

# Bearish condition 2: Price candles showing lower highs and lower lows
def condition3 = lowerHighs and lowerLows;

# Bearish condition 3: Price at or near the upper Bollinger Band
def condition4 = close >= bbUpper * 0.98; # Adjust the threshold as needed

# Combine conditions for bearish setup
def bearishSetup = condition1 and condition2 and condition3 and condition4;

# Plot scan results
plot bearishScan = bearishSetup;
bearishScan.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_DOWN);
bearishScan.SetLineWeight(1);
bearishScan.SetDefaultColor(Color.RED);

And I get the following errors in the addendum:
No such constant: bb.upperband at 9:16
No such constant: bb.upperband at 9:16
Expected double at 9:6
No such constant: bb.upperband at 9:16
No such constant: bb.upperband at 9:16
Expected double at 9:6

Any help would be appreciated

reply to post167

should have had the .upperband on the end of the bb formula , not the variable
def bb = BollingerBands(price = close, length = length, numDevDn = -2, numDevUp = 2);

def bb = BollingerBands(price = close, length = length, numDevDn = -2, numDevUp = 2).upperband;


bb is just a variable, not a function, so can't use .upperband
plot bbUpper = bb.upperband;
if it was a function, would need ()

reply to post166

there is an error
there is a ! in the top left of chart

trying to self assign volume
def volume = volume;

why would you do this ?
delete that line and it will plot arrows

why do people use variable names of commonly used constants , functions......

ps , to make a stacked volume bar chart, look for example codes that use addchart()

i started to look at it. i get interupted a lot.. sorry. i I think it has 2 lines that are above 0 . do you want each line centered around 0? or did you want one of them flipped to be an inverse and on the negative side??

this finds the highest and lowest value of each line. then shifts them down, to be centered around the zero line

I don't understand thinkScript yet, I just trade... but I was trying to have ChatGPT make a script for me that would allow me to get in and out of trades quicker because I often have to react right as a trendline is created with my strategy.

My strategy is pretty simple, I just combined the 9/20 cross with an ABC trendline retracement strategy that I saw online from SMB Capital;

When the 9 SMA is above the 20, I look for a very recent trendline of 3+ consecutive candles trending down, to be broken to the upside by 5-10 cents depending on my judgement about the steepness of the trendline. When the 9 is below the 20, I look for the break of an uptrend to the downside. Sometimes there's a retracement right there, sometimes I have to wait for the retracement to occur. I just wanted a thinkScript that would draw the up or downtrend lines depending on where the 9 is in relation to the 20, and be looking to update it at every candle close. So that I can focus on executing trades, and making sure any of my other rules are met (I don't enter when I perceive there to be a "bubble" e.g. prolonged trend without any recent crosses and the 9/20 are quite far from each other - unless price retraces back into the fishtail between or behind the SMAs and then breaks that retracement line).

There's also a quirk that if the first and third candle are connected (this is a must), but the second candle is "contained" e.g. it's floating and doesn't touch the TL, then it's valid. However, if the second candle breaks below an uptrend line (or above a downtrend line) - THEN I keep the angle of the trendline from candles 1 and 3, but simply "float" it up or down (slide it after drawing it) until it makes contact with the second candle's low or high point (high for 9/20 up with down retracement line, low for 9/20 down with up retracement line).

Here's the script Chat GPT wrote me, and syntax errors from TOS at the bottom:

# Trendline Drawing Study for Thinkorswim
# Automatically draws trendlines based on specified criteria

declare lower;

input smaLength1 = 9;
input smaLength2 = 20;
input trendlineOffset = 1; # Offset for drawing the trendlines

# Calculate SMAs
def sma1 = SimpleMovingAvg(close, smaLength1);
def sma2 = SimpleMovingAvg(close, smaLength2);

# Check if we have enough data for the SMAs
def validData = !IsNaN(sma1) and !IsNaN(sma2);

# Define uptrend and downtrend conditions
def uptrend = sma1 < sma2 and close > close[1] and close[1] > close[2];
def downtrend = sma1 > sma2 and close < close[1] and close[1] < close[2];

# Initialize trendline points
plot startTrendLine = Double.NaN;
plot endTrendLine = Double.NaN;

# Check for uptrend and downtrend conditions
if (uptrend and validData) {
startTrendLine = Min(low, low[2]);
endTrendLine = Min(low[1], low[2]);
if close < startTrendLine {
startTrendLine = startTrendLine - trendlineOffset;
endTrendLine = endTrendLine - trendlineOffset;
}
} else if (downtrend and validData) {
startTrendLine = Max(high, high[2]);
endTrendLine = Max(high[1], high[2]);
if close > startTrendLine {
startTrendLine = startTrendLine + trendlineOffset;
endTrendLine = endTrendLine + trendlineOffset;
}
}

# Plot the trendlines
plot uptrendLine = if !IsNaN(startTrendLine) then startTrendLine else Double.NaN;
uptrendLine.SetDefaultColor(Color.GREEN);
uptrendLine.SetStyle(Curve.FIRM);
uptrendLine.SetLineWeight(1);

plot downtrendLine = if !IsNaN(startTrendLine) then startTrendLine else Double.NaN;
downtrendLine.SetDefaultColor(Color.RED);
downtrendLine.SetStyle(Curve.FIRM);
downtrendLine.SetLineWeight(1);

SYNTAX ERRORS:
Syntax error: An 'else' block expected at 29:5
Syntax error: Semicolon expected at 26:1
Syntax error: An 'else' block expected at 36:5
Syntax error: Semicolon expected at 36:5

I asked ChatGPT to try and fix the errors but ended up just going back and forth having it create new errors and not know how to fix them. If you can get this working I'll be your BFF. Happy to exchange it for my full trade plan too there might be a few other helpful rules in there.

Thanks.

Hello -

I have another script that I could use some help with. The indicator below is a volume histogram with an aggregation period of 3min. The bars on the histogram move 3 bars at a time. Is it possible to keep the aggregation period at 3min or more but have the bars move one bar at a time/1min etc. if on 1min chart? See image below. Thanks.

declare lower;

input useTickData = no;
input displayLabels = no;
input dataSmoothingType = {default Exponential, Simple};
input smoothingLength = 3;
input dataTimeframe = AggregationPeriod.THREE_MIN; # 3 minutes for data aggregation
input volumeTimeframe = AggregationPeriod.MIN; # 1 minute for volume

# Data processing for price
def price;
if (useTickData) {
price = close;
} else {
price = close(period = dataTimeframe);
}

# Data processing for volume (updated every 1 minute)
def volumeData;
if (useTickData) {
volumeData = volume;
} else {
volumeData = volume(period = volumeTimeframe);
}

# Applying smoothing to the data line
plot Data;
switch (dataSmoothingType) {
case Simple:
Data = Average(price, smoothingLength) - Average(Average(price, smoothingLength), smoothingLength);
case Exponential:
Data = ExpAverage(price, smoothingLength) - ExpAverage(ExpAverage(price, smoothingLength), smoothingLength);
}
Data.SetDefaultColor(Color.WHITE);
Data.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HISTOGRAM);

# Defining buy and sell volume
def buyVolume = if close > close[1] then volumeData else 0;
def sellVolume = if close < close[1] then volumeData else 0;

# Resetting the volume calculation each day
def isNewDay = GetDay() != GetDay()[1];
def intradayBuyVolume = if isNewDay then buyVolume else intradayBuyVolume[1] + buyVolume;
def intradaySellVolume = if isNewDay then sellVolume else intradaySellVolume[1] + sellVolume;

# Adding a label to display the intraday volumes
AddLabel(displayLabels, "Buy Vol: " + intradayBuyVolume + " | Sell Vol: " + intradaySellVolume,
if intradayBuyVolume > intradaySellVolume then Color.GREEN else Color.RED);

its only been a day. be patient. no need to repost. when someone has the time and knowledge , they will look at it. there are some very talented people here.

no, i don't think it can be changed to how you asked. when using 2nd aggregation data, the data has the same value for several bars, there's no getting around that..
Maybe instead of using second aggregation. You could use an average of close, with a length of 3, and use that as your data source. Then it will be smoother...??

Maybe instead of using second aggregation. You could use an average of close, with a length of 3, and use that as your data source. Then it will be smoother...??

Thank you, may bad. I would like to maintain the stepped appearance, rather than transitioning to a smoothed representation. Additionally, I'd like to adjust how the bars move in the histogram visualization. Currently, when set to a 3-minute aggregate, three bars move together. Instead, I would prefer if each bar could move independently, updating at 1-minute intervals while maintaining the higher aggregate period.

can't do it. if using 2nd aggregation, formulas will have stepped outputs. the same data exists on several bars.

I tried making the following modifications, not the stepped pattern I was hoping for. Would it be possible to infill the missing bars by extrapolating the rate of change so that they infill at 1min or chart setting?

declare lower;

input smoothingLength = 15;
input aggregationPeriod = 2; # User-defined aggregation period

input momentumLength = 2; # Adjustable momentum length
input momentumMultiplier = 1; # Adjustable momentum multiplier

# Calculate bar index for aggregation
def barNumber = BarNumber();
def isAggregationBar = barNumber % aggregationPeriod == 0;

# Obtain current price
def price = close;

# Calculate simple or exponential smoothing for 1-minute data
def dataOneMin = ExpAverage(price, smoothingLength);

# Aggregate or summarize data based on user-defined period
def aggregatedData = if isAggregationBar then dataOneMin else aggregatedData[1];

# Calculate the momentum
def momentum = (aggregatedData - aggregatedData[momentumLength]) / aggregationPeriod;

# Initialize a variable to hold the infilled data
def infilledData;
if isAggregationBar {
infilledData = aggregatedData;
} else {
# Calculate the value for non-aggregated bars
infilledData = infilledData[1] + momentum * momentumMultiplier;
}

# Centering the plot around a zero plane
plot Data = infilledData - infilledData[1];
Data.SetDefaultColor(Color.WHITE);
Data.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HISTOGRAM);

Hello,

I wrote the following stock screener code but found that it gives me a few results that break just about every condition in my script. I am new to ThinkScript so believe I may be doing something wrong.

Code: 
#Variables
def minPrice = 1.00;     # Define minimum stock price.
def minAboveLow = 0.30;  # Define minimum % above 52 week low.
def maxBelowHigh = 0.25; # Define maximum % below 52 week high.
def ma50CloseDays = 10;  # Define number of days for stock to close above the 50 day moving average.
def minVol = 500000;     # Define the minimum 50 day average volume.

#Define stock price for screening.
def price = close;

#Define moving averages
def ma50 = SimpleMovingAvg(price, 50);   #50 day price SMA.
def ma150 = SimpleMovingAvg(price, 150); #150 day price SMA.
def ma200 = SimpleMovingAvg(price, 200); #200 day price SMA.

#Define moving average trends
def ma50Trend = SimpleMovingAvg(price, 50) [21];   #50 day price SMA from 21 bars ago.
def ma150Trend = SimpleMovingAvg(price, 150) [21]; #150 day price SMA from 21 bars ago.
def ma200Trend = SimpleMovingAvg(price, 200)[63];  #200 day price SMA from 63 bars ago.

#Define average volume
def avgVol = SimpleMovingAvg(volume, 50); #50 day volume SMA.

#Define days closing above SMA (50)
def ma50Close = Sum("data" = price > SimpleMovingAvg(close, 50), "length" = ma50CloseDays);

#Define 52 week high and low
def low52 = Lowest(price,252);   #Lowest close from teh past 252 bars.
def high52 = Highest(price,252); #Highest close from the past 252 bars.

def condition1 = price > ma50 and price > ma150 and price > ma200;
def condition2 = ma50 > ma150;                                   
def condition3 = ma150 > ma200;
def condition4 = ma200 > ma200Trend;
def condition5 = price >= (1 + minAboveLow) * low52;
def condition6 = price >= (1 - maxBelowHigh) * high52;

#Require price to be greater than $1.00 to avoid penny stocks.
def condition7 = price >= minPrice;

#Require volume SMA (50) to be greater than X to avoid thinly traded stocks.
def condition8 = avgVol >= minVol;

#Require the price to be greater than SMA (50) for the past X days to avoid volative stocks.
def condition9 = ma50Close >= ma50CloseDays;

#Require the 50 and 150 day SMAs to be trending positive for the past 21 bars.
def condition10 = ma50 > ma50Trend;
def condition11 = ma150 > ma150Trend;

#Plot results
plot scan = condition1 and condition2 and condition3 and condition4 and condition5 and condition6 and condition7 and condition8 and condition9 and condition10 and condition11;

The scan provides the following results:

1699311387495.png


The top 5 results are way below my threshold of within 25% of a 52 week high and when looking at the charts the 200 day SMA is greater than the 150 day SMA and the 150 day SMA is greater than the 50 day SMA - basically the exact opposite of what I'm looking for.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

I don't understand thinkScript yet, I just trade... but I was trying to have ChatGPT make a script for me that would allow me to get in and out of trades quicker because I often have to react right as a trendline is created with my strategy.

My strategy is pretty simple, I just combined the 9/20 cross with an ABC trendline retracement strategy that I saw online from SMB Capital;

When the 9 SMA is above the 20, I look for a very recent trendline of 3+ consecutive candles trending down, to be broken to the upside by 5-10 cents depending on my judgement about the steepness of the trendline. When the 9 is below the 20, I look for the break of an uptrend to the downside. Sometimes there's a retracement right there, sometimes I have to wait for the retracement to occur. I just wanted a thinkScript that would draw the up or downtrend lines depending on where the 9 is in relation to the 20, and be looking to update it at every candle close. So that I can focus on executing trades, and making sure any of my other rules are met (I don't enter when I perceive there to be a "bubble" e.g. prolonged trend without any recent crosses and the 9/20 are quite far from each other - unless price retraces back into the fishtail between or behind the SMAs and then breaks that retracement line).

There's also a quirk that if the first and third candle are connected (this is a must), but the second candle is "contained" e.g. it's floating and doesn't touch the TL, then it's valid. However, if the second candle breaks below an uptrend line (or above a downtrend line) - THEN I keep the angle of the trendline from candles 1 and 3, but simply "float" it up or down (slide it after drawing it) until it makes contact with the second candle's low or high point (high for 9/20 up with down retracement line, low for 9/20 down with up retracement line).

Here's the script Chat GPT wrote me, and syntax errors from TOS at the bottom:

# Trendline Drawing Study for Thinkorswim

}
}

plot downtrendLine = if !IsNaN(startTrendLine) then startTrendLine else Double.NaN;
downtrendLine.SetDefaultColor(Color.RED);
downtrendLine.SetStyle(Curve.FIRM);
downtrendLine.SetLineWeight(1);

SYNTAX ERRORS:
Syntax error: An 'else' block expected at 29:5
Syntax error: Semicolon expected at 26:1
Syntax error: An 'else' block expected at 36:5
Syntax error: Semicolon expected at 36:5

I asked ChatGPT to try and fix the errors but ended up just going back and forth having it create new errors and not know how to fix them. If you can get this working I'll be your BFF. Happy to exchange it for my full trade plan too there might be a few other helpful rules in there.

Thanks.

i haven't analized all your words. i just made the study plot something.
will study your rules later.

can't do this, and use formulas within if thens
plot startTrendLine = Double.NaN;
plot endTrendLine = Double.NaN;

you just put semi colon after the variable....
plot startTrendLine;
plot endTrendLine;

but, you can't use plot with formulas with recursive variables ( read previous values of same variable)
have to change plot to def, then plot later.


i changed the structure of the if then , and added [1] to some variables on the right side of =.
can't have the same variable of both sides of =.

i don't have a good answer for you.
maybe the combined lengths are too long, trying to access data that isn't available. i forget how far back a scan can read data.
https://usethinkscript.com/threads/fib-scan-watchlist.9857/#post-126493

change the average lengths to 10,20,30 and compare the results, and see if the results are good.


here is a lower study for testing.
it plots rows of dots of the 11 true/false conditions.

there are several things wrong with your question.

there is no draw function.
there is no study function.

learn some of the basic functions in thinkscript, then you will have an idea of what is possible.
https://tlc.thinkorswim.com/center/reference/thinkScript/tutorials



thinkscript can't read data points from objects manually drawn on a chart. i assume that is what you want to have happen, since you didn't provide any rules or conditions, to define the start and stop times of the rectangle.


if you define your buy conditions, they might be able to be added to one of these studies.

Hi,

Could someone help me with the code to show the distance in % terms between a chosen SMA/EMA and the daily ATR and/or Weekly/Session/Monthly VWAP ?

ChatGPT gave me start, but I don't want it to plot, I'd like for it to show as seperate labels. First label would be % away from ATR and second label would be % away from selected VWAP. And the EMA/SMA is adjustable (both the period and the type)

Code: 
# Input for Moving Average Type
input maType = {default "SMA", "EMA"};

# Input for Moving Average Period
input maPeriod = 20;

# Input for VWAP Timeframe
input vwapTimeframe = {default "Daily", "Weekly", "Monthly"};

# Calculate Moving Average
def ma;
switch (maType) {
    case "SMA":
        ma = SimpleMovingAvg(close, maPeriod);
    case "EMA":
        ma = ExpAverage(close, maPeriod);
}

# Calculate VWAP based on selected timeframe
def vwap;
switch (vwapTimeframe) {
    case "Daily":
