π LIBRARY OHLC
π· Introduction
This library is a custom library designed to work with real-time bars. It allows to easily calculate OHLC values for any source.
Personally, I use this library to accurately display the highest and lowest values on visual indicators such as my progress bars.
π· How to Use
βΌ 1. Import the OHLC library into your TradingView script:
- or -
Instead of the library namespace, you can define a custom namespace as alias.
import cryptolinx/OHLC/1 as src
βΌ 2. Create a new OHLC source using the `new()` function.
varip mySrc = OHLC.new() // It is required to use the `varip` keyword to init your `<OHLC.src>`
- or -
If you has set up an alias before.
===
In that case, your `<OHLC.src>` needs to be `na`, define your object like that
varip <OHLC.src> mySrc = na
βΌ 3. Call the `hydrateOHLC()` method on your OHLC source to update its values:
Basic
float rsi = ta.rsi(close, 14)
mySrc.hydrateOHLC(rsi)
- or -
Inline
rsi = ta.rsi(close, 14).hydrateOHLC(mySrc)
βΌ 4. The data is accessible under their corresponding names.
mySrc.open
mySrc.high
mySrc.low
mySrc.close
π· Note: This library only works with real-time bars and will not work with historical bars.
I've never seen anything like that before. Interesting.
