Can someone help code this script so it can plot as ShowonExpansion with labels that show price and also changes colors to green when price is above the SMA50 and red when price is below SMA50?

plot SMAD50 = SimpleMovingAvg (close (period = AggregationPeriod.Day), 50) ;
plot SMA4H50 = SimpleMovingAvg (close (period = AggregationPeriod.Four_Hours), 50) ;
plot SMA1H50 = SimpleMovingAvg (close (period = AggregationPeriod.Hour), 50) ;

Thanks for the support as usual SleepyZ. Can you also make the labels that can show price and also changes colors to green when price is above the SMA50 or red when price is below SMA50 for each perspective timeframe?

SMA50_D $3956 (COLOR GREEN IF PRICE IS ABOVE SMA50), SMA50_4HR $4164.78 (COLOR GREEN IF PRICE IS ABOVE SMA50) AND SMA50_1HR $42227.12 (COLOR GREEN IF PRICE IS ABOVE SMA50)

Please refer to the attached for your reference.

Hi SleepyZ,

I have added a couple of more periods to the script so I can use them as reference but this particular script works only on the 5mns time frame. The chart keeps notifying a message saying that the secondary period cannot be less than the primary, and I need this to also work on different time frames but specifically on the daily time frame. Could you take a look and see what needs to be fixed?


def SMA50_5MN = SimpleMovingAvg (close (period = AggregationPeriod.FIVE_MIN), 50) ;
def SMA50_15MN = SimpleMovingAvg (close (period = AggregationPeriod.FIFTEEN_MIN), 50) ;
def SMA50_30MN = SimpleMovingAvg (close (period = AggregationPeriod.THIRTY_MIN), 50) ;
def SMA50_1HR = SimpleMovingAvg (close (period = AggregationPeriod.HOUR), 50) ;
def SMA50_4HR = SimpleMovingAvg (close (period = AggregationPeriod.FOUR_HOURS), 50) ;
def SMA50_D = SimpleMovingAvg (close (period = AggregationPeriod.DAY), 50) ;

input showlabels = yes;

AddLabel(showlabels, "SMA50_D " + AsDollars(SMA50_D), if close > SMA50_D then Color.GREEN else Color.RED);
AddLabel(showlabels, "SMA50_4HR " + AsDollars(SMA50_4HR), if close > SMA50_4HR then Color.GREEN else Color.RED);
AddLabel(showlabels, "SMA50_1HR " + AsDollars(SMA50_1HR), if close > SMA50_1HR then Color.GREEN else Color.RED);
AddLabel(showlabels, "SMA50_30MN " + AsDollars(SMA50_30MN), if close > SMA50_30MN then Color.GREEN else Color.RED);
AddLabel(showlabels, "SMA50_15MN " + AsDollars(SMA50_15MN), if close > SMA50_15MN then Color.GREEN else Color.RED);
AddLabel(showlabels, "SMA50_5MN " + AsDollars(SMA50_5MN), if close > SMA50_5MN then Color.GREEN else Color.RED);

AddLabel(showlabels, "|", Color.YELLOW);

TOS will not display aggregations lower than the chart timeframe. The only one of these that will display on a Daily chart is the SMA50_D.

One alternative would be is to use a grid of 2 charts, 5m and Daily (or higher than 5m chart). The 5m chart has the label code in the lower pane of the upper chart in the image with the price subgraph not showing. Here is a link to the grid. http://tos.mx/ZvYuypC

 
I see. This means I should be able create a separate label for each respective time frame. Thanks again!

Yes. I had some time and put it all in one script that will display labels for all timeframes daily and below charts with the bubbles that can be displayed based upon the chart's aggregation

Is there a way to plot each of these in the Price chart?

Yes, this plots whatever aggregations are greater than or equal to the chart aggregation. There are movable bubbles added.
