Lower Chart Heiken Ashi With Candles

[jjwint]

My deepest apologies if my answer is already somewhere in the vast collection of scripts that have been shared on this site!

But I'm not seeing it.

I would like to display price in the top part of my screen where price usually goes using whatever APPEARANCE setting I select. It might be a Line, or Bar, or Candle, Equivolume of whatever CHART TYPE I select.

But then, in a LOWER box, I'd like to see Heiken-Ashi. Not some representation but actual HA bars. I want it to look exactly like as if I had selected Heiken Ashi under APPEARANCE . . . but it shows up in a Lower part of the chart.

I've tried to show in the attached picture how I envision this. I can do it now by simply stacking one chart on top of the other as show. But then you have the heading and bottom of the chart which eats up a lot of screen.

Again, sorry if this has already been done but I haven't found it.

Thank you

I think this will be close to what you're looking for. It uses a deprecated function (that nonetheless has been somewhat useable for a while but MAY BE REMOVED AT ANY TIME WITHOUT WARNING OR NOTIFICATION FROM SCHWAB).

USE THIS SCRIPT AT YOUR OWN RISK

adjusting parameters may break your installation

declare lower;


def ha_close = (high + low + open + close) / 4;
def ha_open = (open[1] + close[1]) / 2;
def ha_high = max(max(high, open), close);
def ha_low = min(min(low, open), close);
def ha_hlc3 = (ha_high + ha_low + ha_close) / 3;

AddChart(type=chartType.HEIKIN_ASHI, 
high = if ha_open > ha_close then ha_high else double.nan, 
low = if ha_open > ha_close then ha_low else double.nan, 
open = if ha_open > ha_close then ha_open else double.nan, 
close = if ha_open > ha_close then ha_close else double.nan, 
growColor = Color.DOWNTICK, fallColor = Color.DOWNTICK, neutralColor = Color.WHITE);


AddChart(type=chartType.HEIKIN_ASHI, 
high = if ha_open <= ha_close then ha_high else double.nan, 
low = if ha_open <= ha_close then ha_low else double.nan, 
open = if ha_open <= ha_close then ha_open else double.nan, 
close = if ha_open <= ha_close then ha_close else double.nan, 
growColor = Color.UPTICK, fallColor = Color.UPTICK, neutralColor = Color.WHITE);

P.S. Do NOT use any chart types other than HA and candle and maybe candle trend. others may crash your installation of ToS (especially area and equivolume) Just Don't.
