Overlay previous 2 days of data

[lance]

Hello - is there someone who can create an indicator that overlays price action from yesterday's and 2 days ago?

 

[BenTen]

What kind of information? Do you mean the entire chart from the previous day on top of today's chart?

 

[lance]

yes - something like this for gold:

It could probably be done, though it might get kinda funky. I've got a script around here somewhere that gives average volume by time for the previous day. You could start with that and modify the series to be CLOSE rather than VOLUME. In an ideal world, you could get it to separate days using some convoluted combination of today's date and previous days (getDate maybe?).

You can also build yourself a lower indicator for your markets open/closed using secondsTill() and secondsFrom() if you need.

Happy Trading,
Mashume

FIRST: You will have to set the aggregation period in the study to match your chart.
SECOND: use the DISPLACE feature in the study to shift it over (you pretty much count how many bars are in each day and set it at that number)
takes a little bit of work but it works. Not sure what its worth to you, but in about 5 mins you should be able to adjust to your liking.

input aggregationPeriod = AggregationPeriod.DAY;
input length = 1;
input displace = -1;
input showOnlyLastPeriod = no;
plot PrevDayClose;
if showOnlyLastPeriod and !IsNaN(close(period = aggregationPeriod)[-1]) { PrevDayClose = Double.NaN;
} else { PrevDayClose = Highest(close(period = aggregationPeriod)[-displace], length);
}

i was pretty bored.. 2hrs later here you go what you requested:
Its Price Comparison From Previous Day at the same bar (or same time )and can be adjusted to compare XZY days ago by adjusting the "DaysAgo"

remember to hit the like button if you liked my post!

#Price Comparison From Previous Day at the same bar

input DaysAgo = 1;
def c = close;
def x = BarNumber();
def nan = double.nan;
def RTHbar1 = if getday()<>getday()[Daysago]

              then x
              else RTHbar1[1];

def PrevRTHbar1 = if RTHbar1 != RTHbar1[1]
                  then RTHbar1[1]
                  else PrevRTHbar1[1];
def indexBar = RTHbar1 - PrevRTHbar1;
plot PrevDay = if IsNaN(c)
               then nan
               else GetValue(c, indexBar);
PrevDay.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.LINE);
PrevDay.SetDefaultColor(CreateColor(0, 255, 255));
PrevDay.SetLineWeight(1);
plot Current_Price = c;
Current_Price.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.LINE);
Current_Price.SetDefaultColor(CreateColor(0, 191, 0));
Current_Price.SetLineWeight(1);


AddLabel(1, "Same Bar Comparison from " + DaysAgo + " Days ago " + PrevDay , PrevDay.TakeValueColor());
AddLabel(1, "Current Price = " + Current_Price , Current_Price.TakeValueColor());
#END Price Comparison From Previous Day at the same bar

Awesome - u guys re the best

Following this, is there a way to overlap multiple security price action?

@btran1993 Did you try the built-in Comparison indicator in ThinkorSwim?

@btran1993 Did you try the built-in Comparison indicator in ThinkorSwim?

It's almost what I'm looking for. I ended up being able to stack percentage changes of multiple securities from the market open. Unfortunately they bleed over into another. Don't know yet if that's a desired effect. Thx Ben.

Hi - is there a way to overlay a price chart with price action for the previous 2 days similar to this?

Hi - is there a way to plot this without having to plot the current days price action? It seems that the previous day's price action for a given time does not plot until the current bar is being formed
