Repaints Trend Magic Indicator For ThinkOrSwim

Repaints
@horserider In the code on the CCI part, shouldn't the price be h+l+c divided by 3 instead of just h+l+c? It looks a little unusual not to take the average of those in CCI. CCI usually uses the closing price and hlc3 but this code uses h+l+c, is that how it should be?
 
@SparkyFlary ToS CCI

def price = close + low + high;
def linDev = lindev(price, length);
plot CCI = if linDev == 0 then 0 else (price - Average(price, length)) / linDev / 0.015;

That is how ToS has it, what I went by. Is that how it should be? Do not know. I have seen the formula you mention but have not seen it used in any ToS codes even custom ones. If you have evidence of it being incorrect, please present it.
 
Indicator was shared with the chart. So it was there.

Here is the code:

Code:
input agg = AggregationPeriod.FIFTEEN_MIN;
def c = close(period = agg);
def h = high(period = agg);
def l = low(period = agg);
def pricedata = hl2(period = agg);

DefineGlobalColor("TrendUp", CreateColor(0, 254, 30));
DefineGlobalColor("TrendDown", CreateColor(255, 3, 2));


input lengthCCI = 50;
input lengthATR = 5;
input AtrFactor = 0.7;

def ATRcci = Average(TrueRange(h, c, l), lengthATR) * AtrFactor;
def price = c + l + h;
def linDev = LinDev(price, lengthCCI);
def CCI = if linDev == 0
          then 0
          else (price - Average(price, lengthCCI)) / linDev / 0.015;
def MT1 = if CCI > 0
          then Max(MT1[1], pricedata - ATRcci)
          else Min(MT1[1], pricedata + ATRcci);
plot data = MT1;
data.AssignValueColor(if c < MT1 then Color.RED else Color.GREEN);
It seems that this indicator only works in daily chart, not in lower aggregation periods such as 1-hour, 30-min and 10-min.
What is the main differences from one of youtube.com below?
