And if not for the abs function, to turn a negative value into a positive it's x = x - (x*2)

x = -1 - (-1 * 2)
x = -1 - (-2)
x = -1 + 2
x = 1

So, though you didn't need to do this for this example as we have the function, remember, there's *always* a workaround

Hey Fellow Traders and Scripters! I'd like to invite you to a livestream I'm doing tomorrow: Market Manipulation 101 - The Commentary It'll be at 2PM EST tomorrow (Sunday). If you miss it you can catch the recording. I had a lot of fun putting it together with my friend, Patrick. Hope you all like i...

I feel you... I wouldn't worry too much though, as (1) very frequently traders know any other active traders so they shouldn't share. (2) if you restrict your access to only people with paid accounts, people will be more reluctant to give an ID/PASSWORD to someone if they are paying for it, (3) if t...

I don't believe you can limit use to one device but one ID. If your concern is about someone sharing their account, they certainly wouldn't do it with a live trading account because whoever they shared it with would have access to that person's trading capital :worried3: Is there another reason you ...

Sounds Awesome, Francesco! What does your indicator do?

I feel your pain! :-)

i don't think you can do it via Pinescript but that is a TradingView setting on the chart... I have the same issue with one of my indicators printing out all the variables and I'd rather they not show... it's under Chart settings... Status Line... Indicator Values. Maybe Matt or another PineScripter...

Welcome aboard, Fxxtrader!

Welcome Pradeep! I think we all have a common theme here... I too came to create a custom indicator to help me in my own personal trading, automating much of the "grunt work" so I can focus on the important stuff. I still have a long way to go but I'm a long way from where I was :-) Happy trading (a...

I haven't set an alert but I do have an indicator that shows me when RSI is divergent from the Trend... You can look at my code here: https://www.tradingview.com/script/i3APb1io-Zig-Zag-High-Low-RSI/ and it would be easy enough to basically track the last 4 pivots with 4 variables to see if you are ...
