Kasper Posted November 4, 2021 Report Share Posted November 4, 2021 Hi, Can there be an offset on chart for Smoothed Heiken-Ashi indicator indicator or display this indicator as line on chart? How can I set an alert when a new arrow is formed? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Medved Posted November 4, 2021 Report Share Posted November 4, 2021 I am sorry what do you mean as "offset"? How about displaying it on a chart below or above the main chart? Alert - make a paintbar that does it. The parameter in Smoothed HA indicator would be "Arrow" and it would be either 0, 1, or -1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasper Posted November 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 Since this indicator is displayed as candles shape only, it overlaps chart primary candles if set with lower EMA. The offset would allow display indicator slightly above or below existing candles. Yes, placing indicator above/below mitigates the overlapping but value is not as precise on Y axis. Perhaps, if possible, add a info balloon when a new arrow is formed indicating values of that candle. I'll change indicator opacity to reduce distraction on main chart. Thanks for advising on arrow values, it works. Just to be clear, 0 is for when no arrow on a candle, meaning continuation of trend, correct?

Mike Medved Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 Yes, no arrow is 0. I see what you mean about the overlap.. But how would you specify it. Absolute value is not a good idea since it is very symbol-specific. Neither is the % value for the same reason. What works for AMZN would not work for KNDI. Offset in pixels?

Kasper Posted November 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 Mike, you are right. Using offset to move indicator placement will not be consistently reliable. I will use lower opacity to reduce distraction. Perhaps Smoothed HA candle OHLC values can pop up for candle aligned to vertical trace.
