Help with this piece of Code - Please

[coinn]

Hi guys,

I am trying to create a Marketwatch where it will have 7 columns: Symbol, Overall Trend, Daily Ichimoku, Hourly Ichimoku, 10-min Ichimoku, Chikou Placement, Chikou Direction.

Trend: Not sure how I want to handle this yet, thinking about just using price above/below a Hull MA

The Daily, 1 hour, 10-min and Chikou Placement relate to whether the price is above/in/below the cloud (with color-coding green/black/red). Also, I would like to could back the number of periods the price has closed above/in/below. So if the price is above the cloud for the last 12 periods then it would print in green color with black text "Above Cloud - Count: 12"

Chikou Direction: Currently Up or down

I do not have all of the code. I am new to coding and thinkscript so I have been trying to teach myself and patching two pieces of code from the ToS site.

I can't get the period count to correctly display the actual amount, and well, to be honest, none of it is working correctly. I am very frustrated with my inability to get something I think should not be particularly difficult to work.

Any help anyone may be able to give would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Coinn

def newBelowCloud = if isBelowCloud[1] == 0 and isBelowCloud == 1 then 1 else 0;

AddLabel(newAboveCloud, “Above Cloud“, color.white);
AddLabel(isAboveCloud, “Count: “+sumAboveCloud, color.white);
AssignBackgroundColor(if newAboveCloud then color.green else color.black);

AddLabel(newBelowCloud, “Below Cloud“, color.white);
AddLabel(isBelowCloud, “Count: “+sumBelowCloud, color.white);
AssignBackgroundColor(if newBelowCloud then color.red else color.black);

for columns, you need to use only 1 output function, plot or addlabel.
you have 4 addlabels.

and use only 1 AssignBackgroundColor.
you have 2.
