™TradeChartist Tracker Lite Plot Types
==================================


™TradeChartist Tracker Lite can be used to plot the following.

1. Indicator plot of Chart Symbol on its own, chosen from the 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗧𝘆𝗽𝗲 dropdown, enabling 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐏𝐥𝐨𝐭 (𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫).

In this example Daily chart of XRP-USDT, 55 period Stochastic is tracked for the chart symbol XRP-USDT.


2. Indicator plot of a Symbol different from the Chart Symbol on its own, chosen from the 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗧𝘆𝗽𝗲 dropdown by enabling Tʀᴀᴄᴋ ᴀɴᴏᴛʜᴇʀ Sʏᴍʙᴏʟ's Iɴᴅɪᴄᴀᴛᴏʀ and entering the symbol name in the Sʏᴍʙᴏʟ ᴛᴏ Tʀᴀᴄᴋ input box, whilst keeping 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐏𝐥𝐨𝐭 (𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫) enabled.

In this example Daily chart of XRP-USDT, 55 period Stochastic is tracked for the chart symbol BTC-USD.


3. Upto 5 Multiple Symbol Trackers for the Indicator chosen from the 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗧𝘆𝗽𝗲 dropdown, by disabling 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐏𝐥𝐨𝐭 (𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫) and by entering the number of trackers required in the 𝐍𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫𝐬 input box under 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗹𝗼𝘁𝘀 section. Upto 5 Symbols can be tracked and can be input by the user in the input boxes from Sʏᴍʙᴏʟ 1,...Sʏᴍʙᴏʟ 5. 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐏𝐥𝐨𝐭 (𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫) must be disabled for this plot type.

In this example Daily chart of Crypto Total Market Cap, Bollinger Bands %B is tracked for the chart symbol + 5 other Crypto symbols using Multi Symbol Trackers


4. Indicator Tracker labels can be plotted on Price chart by overlaying the Tracker on main chart and by switching from Separate Tracker Pane - Default to Tracker Labels only on Price Scale in the Lᴀʙᴇʟs Dɪsᴘʟᴀʏ Tʏᴘᴇ dropdown box.

In this example chart of 1hr XLM-USDT, Tracker labels of 55 EMA are plotted for 5 different symbols along with the 55 EMA plot of XLM-USDT.

𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀 𝗜𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 ™𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿 𝗟𝗶𝘁𝗲
==================================================


1. Stochastic Oscillator

2. RSI

3. CCI

4. MA - (10 types included)

5. MACD

6. Bollinger Bands %B

7. Net Volume

8. Heikin Ashi Trend



All of the above indicators can be plotted as independent plots of the Chart Symbol or of a different symbol by enabling 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐏𝐥𝐨𝐭 (𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫). Some Oscillators have the option of Pʟᴏᴛ Sᴛʏʟᴇ under their relevant sections, and can be plotted as line, area or a histogram.

Oscillators 1-6 require source price, lookback length and smoothing (where available) for the indicator plot. The colour of the tracker blocks is based on the Upper/Lower bands (where available), specified by the user in the respective sections. For example, if the RSI indicator is chosen to be plotted with Upper band at 60 and Lower band at 40 , the tracker blocks and the Indicator plot paint the values between 40 and 60 in neutral colour which can be changed from the settings.


Multi Window US30 example chart below with various indicators from ™TradeChartist Tracker Lite.




Moving Averages (MA) and MACD
------------------------------------------------------

Tracker Lite plots and tracks one of 10 Moving Averages that can be chosen from the MA ᴛʏᴘᴇ and by specifying the MA Lᴇɴɢᴛʜ.

MACD uses EMA as default for calculating the MACD plots and Tracker data using Fᴀsᴛ Lᴇɴɢᴛʜ, Sʟᴏᴡ Lᴇɴɢᴛʜ and Sᴍᴏᴏᴛʜɪɴɢ. To experiment or use a different Moving Average to calculate MACD , disable 𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐄𝐌𝐀 (Uɴᴄʜᴇᴄᴋ ᴛᴏ ᴜsᴇ MA ғʀᴏᴍ ᴀʙᴏᴠᴇ) and select the required Moving Average from MA ᴛʏᴘᴇ drop down of the 𝟰. 𝗠𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 section.



Net Volume and Heikin Ashi Trend
-------------------------------------------------------

Net Volume and Heikin Ashi Trend can be tracked and plotted for up to 5 symbols in addition to the chart symbol, but both Net Volume and Heikin Ashi Trend. Since the colour of the Net Volume depends on candle being bullish or bearish , it can help the user visualize if the current candle close of the symbol tracked is above or below the symbols's candle open.

Note: Bar Replay doesn't update the bar by bar indicator plot for historic bars for symbols other than the chart symbol. However, the Indicator Plot is perfectly usable for the realtime bar as data updates for both the Trackers and the indicator plot in realtime.


===================================================================================================================


𝗠𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶 𝗦𝘆𝗺𝗯𝗼𝗹 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀/𝗟𝗮𝗯𝗲𝗹𝘀
=============================

Multi Symbol Tracker blocks continuously track the real-time indicator data of up to 5 symbols (in addition to the chart symbol) based on the number of Symbol Trackers preferred in the 𝐍𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐲𝐦𝐛𝐨𝐥 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫𝐬 (𝟎-𝟓) input box under the 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗹𝗼𝘁𝘀 section, and plots Bull, Bear and Neutral colour coded blocks based on both the indicator selected and settings preferred by the user under the relevant indicator section.

Multi Symbol Tracker Labels also continuously track the real-time indicator data in addition to the last close price (if 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐞 is enabled under 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗹𝗼𝘁𝘀 section), which helps user see the real-time changes in the indicator values and price changes of the symbols tracked.

The Tracker Label colours are exactly the same as the Tracker Block colours and are filtered based on the user preferred bands on the Oscillator values. For example, if the user prefers RSI upper band of 60 and lower band of 40 , the range between the values of 40 and 60 will be colour coded in neutral colour which can be changed from the 𝗨𝘀𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗘𝘅𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘀 section of the indicator settings.

Note 1: Default settings are based on the Oscillator mid values. Using Upper and Lower bands for oscillators help spot the oversold and overbought zones and also helps spot breakout threshold based on Indicator values specified by the user. Example chart with visual depiction below using RSI .

Frequently Asked Questions
========================

Q: When I load the ™TradeChartist Tracker Lite, why are the values in the labels blurred sometimes?

A:
This happens occasionally as shown in the chart below, when the script is loaded for the first time or when a different setting is used.



To resolve this, just hide and unhide the script using the 👁 next to the Indicator title. If it is not visible, just hover the mouse/crosshair over the Indicator Title and it will be visible.


Q: Why does the indicator plot, tracker blocks and labels of Symbols being tracked, not update when I use Bar Replay?

A:
As explained in the relevant sections above, historic data for bars and indicators other than chart symbol doesn't update on bar replay. But the chart symbol data does update for every bar on bar replay. This doesn't affect the real-time values and block colours for the symbols tracked.


Q: Can I track real-time values of a currently trading symbol when I'm on a symbol chart that is inactive? For example, can I see labels with real-time BTC values on a Sunday when I'm on a SPX chart when its not in session?

A:
Simple answer is no. This is because, the plots are based on bar times of the chart and the symbols are tracked based on the bar time. So if the SPX session ended on Friday, the last known value of the BTC labels will be from Friday and hence it is always recommended to track symbols from a symbol chart that is in session.


Q: Does ™TradeChartist Tracker Lite repaint?

A:
This indicator doesn't repaint but it is not recommended to trade a different symbol from the chart based on the real-time data alone without checking if the current symbol chart is in session as inactive price chart will not have updated data on symbols tracked. Also, bar replay doesn't work on data pulled from external symbol data than the chart symbol, but signals confirmed at candle close and confirmed by Tracker blocks with appropriate colour code will be in agreement with the respective indicator and can be double checked for building trust and confidence on the indicator. Also, the indicator is a good companion tool to track various indicators and prices, especially of symbols other than the chart symbol, but, to trade the symbol other than the chart symbol, user must refer to the respective chart.


Q: Can ™TradeChartist Tracker Lite be connected to other indicators as external source?

A:
Yes. ™TradeChartist Tracker Lite can be connected to another script and there are several use cases in doing so. A couple of examples are shown below.

1. ™TradeChartist Tracker Lite Bollinger Bands %B 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗣𝗹𝗼𝘁 connected to ™TradeChartist Plotter to plot Divergences on the 4hr XAU-USD main price chart.


2. ™TradeChartist Tracker Lite 55 period Stochastic 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗣𝗹𝗼𝘁 connected to ™TradeChartist Plug and Trade as Oscillatory Signal with 0/0 to generate trade signals with Targets and performance information on trades.

Best Practice: Test with different settings first using Paper Trades before trading with real money

The indicator is a good companion tool to track various indicators and prices, especially of symbols other than the chart symbol, but, to trade the symbol other than the chart symbol, user must refer to the respective chart.
