Linear Regression (Standard, Forecast, Intercept) For ThinkOrSwim

Here is a little something I came up with the other day.

I could not find either a Linear Regression Forecast or Lin.Reg Intercept studies in ThinkOrSwim, so I decided to make a simple study that incorporates all 3 methods of Linear Regression plots (Standard, Forecast, and Intercept), and allow users to choose which mode they want.

Quite a clear representation of momentum crossover can be seen with 2 separate plots, one a Forecast and the other an Intercept. (Giving them both the same length however.) The two lines will approach each other as momentum slows and the lines cross when momentum reverses.

I hope you find this useful, and look forward to your comments and suggestions.

Good luck with your trading!

def lsma = Inertia(price[-displace], length);
def slope = (lsma - lsma[length - 1]) / length;

should the 'standard' and 'Forecast' plot the same lines? Thank you!!
