Plotting 2 Symbols on Same Chart in ThinkOrSwim

[Steven723]

Hi,

Any idea how to create an indicator that will show the total volume for 2 or more composite symbols.

Currently ToS only shows the minimum volume of the symbols you add together instead of there sum.

For example, I want to show the total volume for XLK+XLF.

You didn't provide a script. So no one can say where you went astray.
The syntax to add the volume of 2 or more composite symbols together is:

(volume("XLk", period = "Day") + volume("XLf", period = "Day")

AddLabel(yes,
"Volume XLk: " +volume("XLk", period = "Day") +" | "+
"Volume XLf: " +volume("XLf", period = "Day") +" | "+
"Combined Volume: " +(volume("XLk", period = "Day") + volume("XLf", period = "Day")), color.blue);

plot XLKvol = volume("XLk", period = "Day");
plot XLfvol = volume("XLf", period = "Day");

Looking to make an indicator that plots 3 lines that track the movement of $ADD $TICK and $VOLD on the 15min chart. I will repay by posting strategies and my own indicators regardless if I get help on this or not. Gotta pull weight, im the new guy

Do you mean something like this? This gives you the logic to plot lines for 2 internal tickers. You should have no problem adding the 3rd.

## NormalizedSymbols by linus
# modified for Lounge request fibfibsomethingorother to compare internal tickers
#Originally version for US Sector SPDR ETFs
#hint: Normalize plots for various symbols to each other and start ploting the symbols at 0.

declare lower;

input firstSymbol  = "$ADD";
input secondSymbol = "$TICK";

def first  = close(firstSymbol);
def second = close(secondSymbol);
def na     = Double.NaN;

script normalize {
    input data = close;
    input Min = -10000;
    input Max = 10000;
    def h = HighestAll(data);
    def l = LowestAll(data);
   
    plot
    normalize = (((Max - Min) * (data - l)) / (h - l)) + Min;
}

def one = CompoundValue(1, if   !IsNaN(first)
                           then normalize(first)
                           else one[1], na);
def two = CompoundValue(1, if   !IsNaN(second)
                           then normalize(second)
                           else one[1], na);

# States: 0 = Not initialized, 1 = Initialized.
def st = {default "0", "1"};
# Offsets:
def ofst1;
def ofst2;

if st[1] == st."0" {
if !IsNaN(one) && !IsNaN(two)
{
# All recs must have a valid value before offsets are initialized to starting value, for respective symbols.
ofst1 = one;
ofst2 = two;
st = st."1";

} else {

# Not initialized.
ofst1 = na;
ofst2 = na;
st = st[1];
}
   
} else {

    ofst1 = ofst1[1];
    ofst2 = ofst2[1];
    st = st[1];
}

def ok = !IsNaN(close) and st == st."1";
plot firstSym  = if ok then one - ofst1 else na;
plot secondSym = if ok then two - ofst2 else na;
firstSym.SetDefaultColor(Color.plum);
secondSym.SetDefaultColor(Color.dark_orange);

Is it possible to Plot VIX and SPX on the same chart? Or even any 2 market symbols? THX
