Percent change histogram

[stt31]

I was wondering if someone ever made one. I am looking for percent change bar open-close, which can be used in any timeframe, plus a date counter, how many days it closed below 5%, 7% something like that in let see 1 year, 3 year, 5 year etc. Thanks!

@stt31 This will work on daily charts. Smaller aggregations don't allow for multiple years worth of historical data to appear on charts, so that part of your request is no doable. I am also not sure if you are even active on this forum anymore. If you reply we can improve it.

declare lower;
declare hide_on_intraday;
input Change = 2;
plot PC = ((close - open) / open) * 100;
PC.setpaintingStrategy(paintingStrategy.HISTOGRAM);
#PC.setdefaultColor(color.blue);
AddLabel(
    Yes,
    "Down more than " + Change +
    " percent for " + TotalSum(PC <= -Change) +
    " out of " + BarNumber() + " days."
#   ,color.blue
);

Thanks, Joshua! I have not been active since my post. I found something on Tradingview made by HPotter https://www.tradingview.com/u/HPotter/ (https://www.tradingview.com/script/lLL1n6Br-Percent-change-bar-chart-v-2-0/) that I really like, but that does not have the counter how often it's closed below/above some %. and I would have love to have this code in Thinkorswim chart. Trying to see if this works on weeklies too and if I can get red days/weeks in red, now it's green only. Weird as default color in script says blue.
