Repaints Sethide() for ZigZag Line

[british43]

I've been trying to use sethiding() to hide ZigZag plot that does not fall within a date range I specify but for some reason the plot will not hide in the specific date range set in the script. I duplicated the TOS zigzag script and added a date range to it. Is there a better way to do this?

@british43
Could you post your code for defining your date range, I find sometimes I lose track of the logic with SetHiding() and what I think should hide a plot does not.

@british43
The function getyyyyMMDD() returns the date of the current bar, so Sethiding() is being calculated with todays date.
You want to use DayFromDate() and DaysTillDate() to define your date range.

More importantly, SetHiding(), stops the entire plot from displaying. (not what you want).
What you want to do is not calculate a plot if outside the defined date range.
Also, not every bar has a value in the plot of your line so if there are not a minimum of two points to draw a line between during that defined range then there will be no plot to display.

It would probably be possible to plot what would appear to be line segments by defining a plot using the bar numbers and high/low where 'zz' is not Double.NaN and drawing a line based on a slope calculated from the rise and run. then there would be a value at every bar for the plotted line and then could use SetHiding() and see what would appear to be a line running from or to a point outside the defined date range.

@Svanoy Works like a champ. Thanks! I'm trying to use Support and Resistance to plot Wyckoff trading range but the lines are dynamic so even if I label each line with a chartbubble it changes as the chart goes on. I'm looking at DIS date range 20211028 to present. I think DIS is in an accumulation phase.

 

[Svanoy]

@british43
As with your chart bubbles, any line plotted to automaticaly at a reversal point defined in the study would change.
There would have to be a defined plot variable for each reversal point, the number of which would be unknown beforehand.
The only way would be to pick a date range and manually plot each reversal with a static plot.

 

[british43]

@Svanoy Do you think if I use the code in this thread https://usethinkscript.com/threads/difference-between-two-zigzag-high-pivot-points.8460/ I would be able to plot static line based on HH, HL, LH, LL?

 

[Svanoy]

@british43
Just glancing over the code in the link, it seems to be the same scenario.
Any study with a core based on a repainting indicator will change as new data becomes available.

here is one way to draw horizontal lines , from the 3 most recent peaks and valleys.
actually, it draws 5. it is determining the last bar as one of them.

this is based on the original ZigZagHighLow study, not a modified one.

this counts the peaks and valleys, then uses reverse counters to determine the 3 most recent.

as svanoy said, you have to have a plot command for every line. and we don't know how many will be needed.
there is a test label that can be turned on to display the quantity of peaks and valleys.

@halcyonguy and @Svanoy This helps a lot. How would I go about extending the lines?

@halcyonguy and @Svanoy This helps a lot. How would I go about extending the lines?

replace these 6 code lines with the ones below


to extend the lines, add this
if isnan(zz) then r1_line[1] else

# horz lines

def r1_line = if isnan(zz) then r1_line[1] else if bn == 1 then na else if revrcnt == 1 and zz2 == high then high else r1_line[1];
def r2_line = if isnan(zz) then r2_line[1] else if bn == 1 then na else if revrcnt == 2 and zz2 == high then high else r2_line[1];
def r3_line = if isnan(zz) then r3_line[1] else if bn == 1 then na else if revrcnt == 3 and zz2 == high then high else r3_line[1];

def s1_line = if isnan(zz) then s1_line[1] else if bn == 1 then na else if revscnt == 1 and zz2 == low then low else s1_line[1];
def s2_line = if isnan(zz) then s2_line[1] else if bn == 1 then na else if revscnt == 2 and zz2 == low then low else s2_line[1];
def s3_line = if isnan(zz) then s3_line[1] else if bn == 1 then na else if revscnt == 3 and zz2 == low then low else s3_line[1];

Are you looking for something like this?
It's not the cleanest look in the world but I believe it's what you are looking for.

#ZigZag
#TomSK

def PercentAmount = .01;
def RevAmount = .05;
def ATRreversal = 3.0;
def ATRlength = 5;

def zz = ZigZagHighLow("price h" = high, "price l" = low, "percentage reversal" = PercentAmount,
"absolute reversal" = RevAmount, "atr length" = ATRlength, "atr reversal" = ATRreversal);

def zzSave = if !IsNaN(zz) then zz else GetValue(zzSave, 1);
def chg = (if zzSave == high then high else low) - GetValue(zzSave, 1);
def isUp = chg >= 0;

# Zig Zag Plot

plot zzp = if isUp <= 1 then zz else Double.NaN;
zzp.AssignValueColor(if isUp then Color.Green else if !isUp then Color.Red else Color.Dark_Orange);
zzp.SetStyle(Curve.FIRM);
zzp.EnableApproximation();
zzp.HideBubble();

# Horizontal Lines

plot CrossZZBull = !isUP[1] and isup;
CrossZZBull.setPaintingStrategy(paintingStrategy.booLEAN_ARROW_UP);
CrossZZBull.setdefaultColor(color.cyan);
plot CrossZZBear = isUP[1] and !isup;
CrossZZBear.setPaintingStrategy(paintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_DOWN);
CrossZZBear.setdefaultColor(color.magenta);

#FFT/NFT
def SupportZZ = if CrossZZBull then low else SupportZZ[1];
def ResistZZ = if CrossZZBear then high else ResistZZ[1];

plot SZZ = SupportZZ;
plot RZZ = ResistZZ;

#Baseline
Def BaseSwitch = if CrossZZBull then low else if CrossZZBear then high else baseSwitch[1];
def BaselineSZZ = BaseSwitch;
#BaselineSZZ.setdefaultcolor (color.cyan);

Thanks for share this script. @Svanoy and @halcyonguy I'm trying to see the trend for specific bars between a date range and hide all other bars. I tried using the ActivePeriod but didn't work. Do I need to mess with the trend defs an how would like all the other bars?

#VSA

input startdate = 20210719;
input enddate = 20210620;

def ActivePeriod = if DaysFromDate(startdate)>=0 and DaysTillDate(enddate) >=0 then yes else Double.NaN;

def vbegin = getyyyyMMDD() == startdate;
def vend = getyyyyMMDD() == enddate;

AddVerticalLine(vbegin,"Range Starts",Color.GREEN,Curve.firm);
AddVerticalLine(vend,"Range Ends",Color.GREEN,Curve.firm);

input trendText = {false, default true};

def LongTermTrendSlope = LinearRegressionSlope(price = fiveDaysSma, length = 40)[0];
def MiddleTermTrendSlope = LinearRegressionSlope(price = fiveDaysSma, length = 15)[0];
def ShortTermTrendSlope = LinearRegressionSlope(price = fiveDaysSma, length = 5)[0];

#LABELS

AddLabel(trendText, Concat("",Concat("Short Term Trend is ", if (ShortTermTrendSlope > 0) then "Up" else "Down")), Color.dark_orange);

Here are 2 options for not displaying price bars outside the activeperiod.

The first is #assignpricecolor() where the bars outsiide the activeperiod are colored the same as the chart background.

The second one only displays the activperiod bars and hides the others through hiding all the price bars and using addchart() to display the activeperiod bars

The from and to dates are changed below to create the active period
