bar count plot only for far lookback
Purpose:
TradingView limits the number of text/label objects (≈500), which causes traditional bar-count indicators to stop showing numbers when you scroll far back in history.
This plots-only version bypasses that limitation entirely, allowing you to view bar numbers anywhere on the chart, even thousands of bars back.
How It Works:
Displays each bar’s in-day sequence number (1–78 by default) under the candles.
Counts restart automatically at the start of each trading day.
Uses a dual-channel “digit plot” system (tens + ones) instead of labels—extremely light on performance and unlimited in lookback.
The digits are drawn every N bars (default = 3) to keep the view uncluttered.
Key Parameters:
Show every Nth bar: Controls how often numbers appear (1 = every bar, 3 = every 3 bars, etc.).
Notes:
Digits are plotted directly via plotshape()—no labels—so they remain visible even 5 000 + bars back.
Alignment may vary slightly depending on chart zoom; this version is intended mainly for deep historical review rather than precise near-term alignment.
