Quarterly EPS shown as a Line Graph

[danpadcas]

Hi all.

I've been looking for a nice way of plotting %EPS increasing/decreasing qtr over qtr on ToS but I did not find anything appealing. I've come across this website and I reckon this is the most accurate indicator I found.

https://playthetrade.com/tradingview/technical-indicators/quarterly-eps-shown-as-a-line-graph/

What's on the screenshot is a line of graph that follows the EPS results qtr over qtr. The red and green dots represent whether the results were up or down from the previous report. What I'd like to know is if there is a way to calculate the % difference between EPS so we can see at a glance how much has increase or decrease in %.

I follow CANSLIM criteria so that's why I'm requesting it

For those interested in this indicator here is the link;

And here the Thinkscript Code;

declare lower;

input showEPSBubble = yes;

def e = GetActualEarnings();
def earnings = CompoundValue(1, if IsNaN(e) then earnings[1] else e, e);

# Plot the earnings as a line
plot earningsLine = GetActualEarnings();

# Given earnings are not relevant for each bar, approximate line from bar to bar
earningsLine.EnableApproximation();

# Change as you like
earningsLine.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.POINTS);
earningsLine.SetDefaultColor(CreateColor(90, 122, 176));
earningsLine.hideTitle();

# Plot green/red dot indicating earnings up/down
plot earningsUpDownIndicator = GetActualEarnings();
earningsUpDownIndicator.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.SQUARES);
earningsUpDownIndicator.AssignValueColor(if earnings > earnings[1] then (CreateColor(120, 184, 86)) else CreateColor(164, 36, 22));
earningsUpDownIndicator.SetLineWeight(4);
earningsUpDownIndicator.hideTitle();

# Optional EPS bubble
AddChartBubble(showEPSBubble, earningsUpDownIndicator, earnings, Color.GRAY);

Can anyone give me a hand?

Hi folks!
As a start, this is a good earnings line. I pushed it up to the main chart and it could use your help.
Can this be programed to show % change on the left side and keep it equal between charts so that a 20% increase in earnings will look the same from chart to chart, even though the price scale varies widely?
Thank you. I hope all is well with the team!
