display as dollars with decimals

[lance]

Is there an indicator (built by the community or otherwise) that shows the price range of a candle in dollars? I'm thinking ATR set to 1 but that shows in ticks(points) and I need it in dollars.

Thanks

I have an ATR indicator in thinkscript that displays values in dollars e.g. if /ES ATR = 1 point or 4 ticks, the indicator shows 50 (12.50 per tick time 4 ticks)..please help me to format the output to dollars with 2 decimal places ($50.00)

declare lower;

input length = 1; input averageType = AverageType.SIMPLE;

def ATR = MovingAverage(averageType, TrueRange(high, close, low), length);

def TIX = ATR / TickSize();

plot ATRD = TIX * TickValue();

ATRD.SetDefaultColor(GetColor(8));

AsDollars ( double value);

so you might do something like :

plot ATRD = AsDollars( TIX * TickValue() );

perhaps. perhaps not what you are looking for.

I get an error "Expected double" for ATRD - thoughts?

I think AsDollars only works for AddLabel() functions. I'm not sure you can plot is, since it's not a number any longer but a formatted string.

OK - does anyone here know how to convert the script to pine?
