Quarterly Theory For ThinkOrSwim

Is there anyone who could has turned the 90m, 6hr, Daily & Weekly into upper labels? Having some issues make it happen for some reason.
This is what I have so far. Though the 90m still won't generate anything for me.


input showLabels = yes;
addlabel(showlabels, "90-" + if isq1 and !isq1[1] then "ACC" else if isQ2 and !isq2[1] then "MAN" else if isQ3 and !isQ3[1] then "DIS" else if isQ4 and isQ4[1] then "REV" else " ", if isq1 then Globalcolor("a") else if isQ2 then Globalcolor("m") else if isq3 then Globalcolor("d") else if isq4 then Globalcolor("x") else color.white);

The following shows labels for Weekly down to 90m cycles as an upper study.

Thanks Tony!

I also was working on identifying the highs and lows of Q2 and Q3, which relative failure. I’m unsure of what I’m coding incorrectly.
My goal was to identify if Q2 breaks either high or low of Q1 to establish a bias for Q3 as bearish or bullish respectively.

Has anyone had any luck with plotting ACC2 high and lows and Q2 High lows? My script won't identify them correctly for some reason and I can't seem to crack it.

def q2high = if (isOneThirty or isSevenThirty2 or isThirteenThirty or isNineteenThirty) then high else q2high[1];
def q2low = if (isOneThirty or isSevenThirty2 or isThirteenThirty or isNineteenThirty) then low else q2low[1];

input showacc2levels = yes;
def acc2High = if (acc2) then high else if acc2 and high > acc2High[1] then high else acc2High[1];
def acc2Low = if acc2 then low else acc2low[1];
#def acc2Low = if (isEighteen and !isMidnight) then low else acc2low[1];
plot acc2highline = if (showacc2levels and man2) or (showacc2levels and dist2) then acc2high else double.nan;
plot acc2lowline = if showacc2levels and (man2 or dist2) then acc2low else double.nan;

Personally, I would be a bit careful in assigning bias the way you have suggested. The break of these levels can either break and fail or break and extend in the same direction. So you might want to allow for that. As far as your code goes, I can see that the definition of acc2High will never evaluate the else if portion of the code so probably will always have the high of the last candle in acc2. I would try something like this:
Ruby:
def Q2High = if Q2 and !Q2[1] then high else if Q2 and high > Q2High[1] then high else Q2High[1];
def Q2Low = if Q2 and !Q2[1] then low else if Q2 and low < Q2Low[1] then low else Q2Low[1];

Hopefully that helps to move you forward.
