Smoothed Heikin-Ashi for ThinkorSwim

How to code Sound Bell if Bullish or Bearish Change

UPDATE:
I worked it out -

# Alerts
Alert(Bullish, text = "Buy HA Signal", sound = Sound.Bell, "alert type" = Alert.BAR);

Alert(Bearish, text = "HA Momentum_Down", sound = Sound.Bell, "alert type" = Alert.BAR);

# End Code
Thanks for sharing this. Where did you add it in? I tried with the Smooth HA code and separately and got an error code.

Hi, I'm new here.
I really wanted to try out a Smoothed Heiken-Ashi study for TOS, since it is not available in the default program I looked for a script online, which brought me here. I edited the study from page 1.
I don't do much scripting but I thought others might find it useful.

Code:
# Heikin Ashi Smoothed
# HoboTheClown / blt
# 9.15.2016

# HoboTheClown: I recently found a code for smoothed heiken ashi bars,
# however for some reason all the bars are displayed as one color (going up or down).
#
# blt: Modified the code and replaced the addchart code at the bottom,
# you should now see proper coloring. This is how that was coded to plot
# as an overlay to the chart candlesticks. That is two sets of candles,
# with different coloring for each. If you have the heikin ashi candle
# coloring code on your chart, then they will likely appear the same color.

#Update that "fixes" the green candles.
