Friends,

I am kind of new with thinkscript and look for experts to help on sharing few lines of code with what I am looking for.

I need a bubble to show the difference between candle close and the EMA lines on the top left corner (ref to the attached image)

this has 4 averages. if the length is > 1 then they will be evaluated

Code:
# price_diff_emas_00

# https://usethinkscript.com/threads/show-the-difference-between-candle-close-and-the-ema-lines.14254/
# Show the difference between candle close and the EMA lines

def na = double.nan;
def bn = barnumber();

# last bar  ( most recent)
#def lastbar = !isnan(close[0]) and isnan(close[-1]);

Appreciate all your help @halcyonguy Can this be made into a watchlist

yes, just have to reduce the data displayed so it will fit in a column


for a watchlist, i make a lower study , then change it to be a column study

this is a lower for studying data


Code:
# price_diff_emas_00_lower

# https://usethinkscript.com/threads/show-the-difference-between-candle-close-and-the-ema-lines.14254/
# Show the difference between candle close and the EMA lines

declare lower;

def na = double.nan;
def bn = barnumber();

# last bar  ( most recent)
#def lastbar = !isnan(close[0]) and isnan(close[-1]);


def price = close;

input ma1_len = 8;
input ma1_type =  AverageType.EXPONENTIAL;
def ma1 = MovingAverage(ma1_type, price, ma1_len);

input ma2_len = 20;

def ma2 = MovingAverage(ma2_type, price, ma2_len);

input ma3_len = 50;
input ma3_type =  AverageType.EXPONENTIAL;
def ma3 = MovingAverage(ma3_type, price, ma3_len);

input ma4_len = 1;
input ma4_type =  AverageType.EXPONENTIAL;
def ma4 = MovingAverage(ma4_type, price, ma4_len);

def en1 = ma1_len > 1;
def en2 = ma2_len > 1;
def en3 = ma3_len > 1;
def en4 = ma4_len > 1;

#input show_average_lines = no;
#plot z1 = if show_average_lines and en1 then ma1 else na;

watchlist study

this shows up to 4 price difference, separated by |
the biggest difference decides the color# for the background , 1,2,3,4

Awesome bruh !! This is great stuff.

how easy it is to add RSI label so as to show the RSI value (14 days) for this candle?
