  1. wow!! thanks, John--- that was fast! okay, i'm going to play with this a bit and come back here to share--- thank YOU -- this is one of my simplest but most critical indicators EDIT~~~ that was exactly what i meant by "building blocks" to help a newbie understand-- from your example i can see how to build some other stuff too Bump: im still working on code you provided, John, which has much more potential than this from their manual--- somehow between the two i should be able to finally get exactly what i want--- ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ declare lower; plot data = close-close("enter symbol"); ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Bump: im still working on code you provided, John, which has much more potential than this from their manual--- somehow between the two i should be able to finally get exactly what i want--- ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ declare lower; plot data = close-close("enter symbol"); ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Bump: im still working on code you provided, John, which has much more potential than this from their manual--- somehow between the two i should be able to finally get exactly what i want--- ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ declare lower; plot data = close-close("enter symbol"); ++++++++++++++++++++++++++
  2. thanks to everybody here!! suggestion--- the thinkscript manual is really scarce on examples-- it kind of assumes someone is familiar with coding generally. it would really be helpful if someone could explain SIMPLE functions in a concrete way, like building blocks to create a desired result. EXAMPLE: i'm struggling to write this simple code (and i'd appreciate any help- i keep getting errors)--- ======================== 1. to display two stocks upper (any format, candles or whatever, avg price or whatever) 2. single plot in lower study that shows the difference between the two stocks, but using the avg of daily hi+lo+close.=============================== see what i mean? if someone had a building block that showed them how to plot multiple stocks (upper), and another building block that showed them how to plot interactions (+,-, /,sqrt etc) of those stock values (lower), they could build many indicators. anyway, just a suggestion and request from a frustrated newbie coder-- Dennis
