HTF PO3 Indicator For ThinkOrSwim

If you add the study multiple times, you can compare the last 5 hours of NQ vs Bonds while looking at a 2m chart on ES. Maybe it's too much o_O

How do you add multiple codes as shown above? Can the previous week and days also be shown with other lower time frames when selecting from the study? When I add more than one study it overlays on top of each other. I'm also using the code by @netarchitech if that makes a difference.

I've setup an NQ chart with the prior 5 daily candles showing on an hourly chart. Monday's candle looks a bit off b/c it was a holiday but that's just TOS data.

The trick to set it up like this is to add that study multiple times (for as many candles as you would like to display). And you MUST have your expansion area large enough to fit the candles you are adding (minimum 3 per candle you add). I've included this setup as a shared chart so you should just be able to modify the timeframe and get what you are looking for.

So how do you add six candles if candle type only goes four back?

Tried that. Couldn't get it right, if you post the code for two additioal candles be much appreciated.

I have modified to support up to 10 candles. You need to manually select which candle you want (eg. 0 is current, 1 is previous and so on). So if you want 10 candles, you want candleType 0 in Candle 'Tenth' and candleType 1 in Candle 'Ninth' and so on. Hopefully this is enough to get you going.

The trick to set it up like this is to add that study multiple times (for as many candles as you would like to display). And you MUST have your expansion area large enough to fit the candles you are adding (minimum 3 per candle you add). I've included this setup as a shared chart so you should just be able to modify the timeframe and get what you are looking for.

Not to be pain; but instead of timeframe, how difficult would it be to code a bubble below the lists the abbreviated days of the week like M,Tu,Wed,Th,F? for like each respective day? Thank you for this code, very well done!

Unfortunately, I believe this would be a challenge. In the code I can only 'get' the current day of the week (1 through 5) and we can be grabbing candles from 9+ days ago. Would require quite a bit of manual coding to factor in the starting point and the possible outcomes. I will think about it a bit and see if I can find a reasonable solution.

Actually, I figured out a way to get this to work for the last five days. There is a slight problem when you get closer to the end of the day b/c the expansion area is in the 'next day' and the calculations are off by one day. I'm not sure if there is a way around that.

Add this code to the study to get those bubbles:

Ruby: 
input showDailyBubbles = yes;
def currentDay = getDayOfWeek(getYYYYMMDD());
def tempDay = currentDay - candlePos;
def displayDay = if (currentDay == 4 and candlePos == 4) then 5 else if (currentDay == 3 and candlePos == 4) then 4 else if (currentDay == 3 and candlePos == 3) then 5 else if (currentDay == 2 and candlePos == 4) then 3 else if (currentDay == 2 and candlePos == 3) then 4 else if (currentDay == 2 and candlePos == 2) then 5 else tempDay;
AddChartBubble(showDailyBubbles and expMid,xL,(if displayDay == 1 then "M" else if displayDay == 2 then "Tu" else if displayDay == 3 then "W" else if displayDay == 4 then "Th" else if displayDay == 5 then "F" else displayDay + ""),Color.WHITE,no);

Tony - How do you add different tickers with this study for the comparison?

That image was an experimental study that I did not end up releasing here. If I have some time over the next few weeks I will see if I can resurrect it and clean it up for release.
