Plot Real Open and Close - SamX — Indicator by SamAccountX

supportandresistance candlestick heikenashi open close bar chart hollowcandles plotshape

I built this indicator as a personal request from a friend. He often trades using Heiken Ashi charts, but wanted a way to easily cross-reference real-price open and close values for the same timeframe on the same chart (as HA candles are by design lagging, they can take a few periods to catch up to a large move). This can also be used to help guide support and resistance zones using real-price data points should you so choose.

There are 2 major ways to configure this indicator to display real-price open and close:

As a Bar or Hollow Candle style chart overlay
As on-chart shapes (allowing individual control over which data to show - open, close, or both)

Release Notes:

Added the ability to plot an updating line tracking current real price.

Release Notes:

Added option to extend the live-price line indefinitely to the left as well.
