Overall Market Sentiment Indicator for ThinkorSwim

@mashume, please accept my apologies for the sudden onslaught of dyslexia. I meant SRSI. Here is the code.

Code:
declare lower;

input len = 6; #changed from the setting of 20 per the instructions of the original author

def srsin;
def value1 = close - open;
def value2 = high - low;
def value3 = if value2 == 0 then 0
else value1 / value2;

srsin = Sum(value3, len);

plot srsi = srsin / len;
srsi.assignValueColor(if srsi > 0.05 then Color.GREEN
else if srsi<-0.05 then color.red
else color.yellow);

plot l1 = 0.38 ;
l1.SetDefaultColor(Color.DARK_RED);

plot l2 = -0.38;
l2.SetDefaultColor(Color.DARK_GREEN);

plot zline = 0;
zline.SetDefaultColor(Color.ORANGE);

Alert(SRSI crosses below 0, "", Alert.BAR, Sound.Bell);
Alert(SRSI crosses above 0, "", Alert.BAR, Sound.Bell);

#AddLabel(yes, "SRSI: " + SRSI, if SRSI > .05 then (Color.GREEN) else if SRSI < -.05 then (Color.RED) else Color.Yellow);

@mashume, please accept my apologies for the sudden onslaught of dyslexia. I meant SRSI. Here is the code.
No Problems,

Here's some code. It only seems to work on a daily chart for whatever reason... perhaps some one here can tell me why.

Code:
# AVERAGE of SRSIs FOR GROUP OF STOCKS
#
# useThinkScript
# 2020-07-24
# @mashume

script SRSI {
    input ticker = "SPY";
    input len = 6;
    def srsin;

    def value1 = close(ticker) - open(ticker);
    def value2 = high(ticker) - low(ticker);
    def value3 = if value2 == 0 then 0
                 else value1 / value2;

    srsin = Sum(value3, len);
    plot SRSI = srsin / len;
}


declare lower;

input OS = -0.2;
input OB = 0.2;

input ticker_1 = "SBUX";
input ticker_2 = "MSFT";
input ticker_3 = "AMZN";
input ticker_4 = "COST";
input ticker_5 = "FFIV";
input ticker_6 = "DAIO";
input ticker_7 = "MRNA";


def SRSI_1 = SRSI(ticker = ticker_1);
def SRSI_2 = SRSI(ticker = ticker_2);
def SRSI_3 = SRSI(ticker = ticker_3);
def SRSI_4 = SRSI(ticker = ticker_4);
def SRSI_5 = SRSI(ticker = ticker_5);
def SRSI_6 = SRSI(ticker = ticker_6);
def SRSI_7 = SRSI(ticker = ticker_7);


plot data = (SRSI_1 + SRSI_2 + SRSI_3 + SRSI_4 + SRSI_5 + SRSI_6 + SRSI_7) / 7;

plot zero = 0;
zero.setDefaultColor(Color.GRAY);

# plot rsi = rsi(price = data);
data.SetDefaultColor(Color.CYAN);
data.SetLineWeight(2);

plot oversold = OS;
oversold.SetDefaultColor(Color.RED);

plot overbought = OB;
overbought.SetDefaultColor(Color.GREEN);

I made up the OS and OB levels. I'm not sure whether they're appropriate or not.

Trade 'em like you see 'em.

@mashume Thank you again for your time and efforts. This is going to work my longer trades. Maybe someone here can work this for shorter time frames.
 
I personally use a very rudimentary indicator to estimate overall market sentiment or you can say current trend. I only trade SPX and have found the indicator originally presented here very useful by @Chemmy. I avoid trading against these sentiments at any point in time.

Here is my indicator to develop an understanding of the overall market. This is not very scientific perhaps.

Here is the code for Market Sentiment Record.
Code:
# fsk_market_sentiment  - Show over all market sentiments 
# 02-01-2023 - fskhan - Created
#   Show 4 Key ETFs/Indexes  and an aggregate of 24 key stocks, sectors and indexes to determine 
# overall market  sentiment.
# this to help determine  "SellPut" or "Sellput" signals from fsk_HighLowRangeToday should be considered.
# When label MSR (Market SentimentZoneOscillator Record) is RED and less than 50% 
# then general trend is Down, so consider "Sell Call"
# When label MSR (Market SentimentZoneOscillator Record) is GREEN and MORE than 50% 
# then General Trend is UP, so consider "Sell PUT"

@Chemmy @samer800 @fskhan Is it possible to get histogram view of MSR by which we can see MSR values throughout the day?
