OHLC📕 LIBRARY OHLC
🔷 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.
🔷 How to Use
◼ 1. Import the OHLC library into your TradingView script:
import cryptolinx/OHLC/1
- or -
Instead of the library namespace, you can define a custom namespace as alias.
import cryptolinx/OHLC/1 as src
◼ 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 ``
- or -
If you has set up an alias before.
varip mySrc = src.new()
===
In that case, your `` needs to be `na`, define your object like that
varip mySrc = na
◼ 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)
◼ 4. The data is accessible under their corresponding names.
mySrc.open
mySrc.high
mySrc.low
mySrc.close
🔷 Note: This library only works with real-time bars and will not work with historical bars.
Source
srcCalcLibrary "srcCalc"
Provides functions for converting input strings 'open','high','low','close','hl2','hlc3','ohlc4','hlcc4' to corresponding source values.
get_src(src)
Converts string to source float value
Parameters:
src : String to use (`close` is used if no argument is supplied).
Returns: Returns the float value of the string
