RicardoSantos, thanks for this indicator
I'm new to pinescript and can't quite figure it out how to port this to v4
I Kept getting erros like this for bricksize and ropen or rclose: "Value with NA type cannot be assigned to a variable that was defined without type keyword"
So I declared them as Var Float... and from that point stopped getting any errors, nonetheless I can't get the indicator to plot, can you help me?
This is what I've got so far:
mode = input('ATR', options=["ATR", "Traditional"])
modeValue = input(14.000)
var float bricksize = na
if mode == "ATR"
bricksize := atr(round(modeValue))
if mode == "Traditional"
bricksize := modeValue
showOverlay = input(false)
var float ropen = na
var float propen = nz(ropen[1])
ropen := close > propen+bricksize or high > propen+bricksize ? propen+bricksize : close < propen-bricksize or low < propen-bricksize ? propen-bricksize : propen
var float rclose = na
rclose := ropen > propen ? ropen-bricksize : ropen < propen ? ropen+bricksize : nz(rclose[1])
var float direction = na
direction := ropen > propen ? 1 : ropen < propen ? -1 : nz(direction[1])
rc = direction == 1 ? color.green : direction == -1 ? color.maroon : na
Well i guess what I'm asking if you look at your chart example here the candle with the high wick at a price of 11750 the zig zag there looks like it is telling you it hit a new high so i guess my question is there a lag with that zig zag or does it wait till the next 5 minute candle formation? Thank you for taking the time to answer my first question

yes its lagging by atleast 1 candle bar, can vary depending on distance to extreme since the swings are based on the range block swings and then capturing pivots when it changes

On this indicator Does the plot of the new high or new low get placed immediately or is it on the candle of the next time frame. If that makes any sense. ty

Is there a way to backtest Renko scripts published in TradingView? I've been a fan of Renko, but new to TradingView.
Also, would be great to set up alerts on Renko reversal points
It doesn't show the "Traditional" mode? Could you know the reason why?
