Line Break Heikin AshiThis script takes two candle styles and combines then into one. By only using the closing price to inform the heikin ashi candles you get a lovely line break style heiken ashi candle. The advantage to this if you are into this kind of thing is that it makes for a smoother experience. You still get wicks just because of the nature of heikin ashi but they are dramatically reduced. This is defiantly an experimental indicator as its just a different way to look at the chart. I hope some one can find use in this outside of a work around pine script limitations. I had to create this for my sentiment tracker section of my qqe bb screener because it uses so many symbols that I cant get the open, high, or low for each. If you find any bugs please report them, or if you have any feedback please leave it. Enjoy!
Workaround
FUNCTION: Limited Historical Data WorkaroundFUNCTION: Limited Historical Data Workaround
If you are working with bitcoin weekly charts, or any other ticker with a low amount of price history this function may help you out. For example you want to apply indicators to some shitcoin that just launched? This can help you.
It can be frustrating to use certain built-ins since they will only give an output once the full lookback length is available. This function allows you to avoid that situation and start plotting things with almost no history whatsoever!
In this example code we do it by utilizing a replacement for the built in pine SMA function. This function allows us to pass a series instead of just a simple int to the length variable of the SMA. This can be achieved with all the pine built ins and I believe @pinecoders has a publication already detailing many of them with full coded examples.
Then we replace the length of the SMA with the custom history function. It checks to see if the current bar index is less than the length of the function. Then if it is, it changes the length to the bar index allowing us to get plots and series earlier than otherwise possible.
