Watchlist Heatmap Plus
Updated
Introducing 'Watchlist Heatmap Plus,' an advanced indicator designed to supercharge your trading experience. With this tool, you can easily track up to 40 symbols in your watchlist and gain valuable insights into their performance. Here's what it does:
1. Data Visualization: Watchlist Heatmap Plus displays essential data for each symbol, including open, high, low, close, close percent, volume, and volume percent.
2. Dynamic Color Coding: The indicator leverages a dynamic color-coding system to make data interpretation a breeze. By default, red indicates a decrease or a lower value compared to the immediate previous candle, while green represents an increase or a higher value. This color scheme is consistently applied to open, high, low, close, and volume data, making it easy to spot trends at a glance. Close percent and volume percent are color-coded according to their actual values.
3. Customization Options: Users have the power to customize the displayed data to align with their trading strategy. They can choose from several data display options:
- Regular: Display the original data as is.
- Change: Show the difference between the current value and the previous candle.
- Change Percent: Display the percentage change between the current and previous values.
- Equal To, Less Than, Less Than or Equal To, Greater Than, Greater Than or Equal To: Perform comparison operations between the current and previous value, producing a boolean output.
4. Consistent Color Coding: Regardless of the data display option chosen, the color-coding functionality remains the same, based on the percentage change, allowing traders to quickly assess the health of each symbol.
Performance Considerations:
Please be aware that due to the complexity of this indicator and the substantial volume of data requests it handles, users may experience occasional data lag and performance slowdown, particularly when applied to certain timeframes. In some cases, there may be a risk of memory exhaustion, especially on smaller timeframes.
To optimize your experience and ensure smooth functionality, I recommend using this indicator on higher timeframes where data processing is less resource-intensive. Additionally, when using the indicator with the chart's replay feature, be cautious as it may encounter memory limits, affecting its performance.
