Suggest your chart style ideas and discuss the existing chart styles from the Community.ChartStyles library.

Thanks to RA81 for his submission of the Thick Bars OHLC chart style that paved the way for the new library.

Updated ThickBars Style. Now have a settings window.

@Eugene
I have a added a DottedChartStyle, that plots dots on the price. The user can choose the weight of the dot and the price[O,H,L,C] on which to plot the dot. How shall we proceed to add this to the Community.ChartStyles?

Create a support ticket, please. We'll make the rest. Thank you.

Thank you for the contribution. The "Dotted" chart style has been integrated with the Community.ChartStyles project. The project's source code can be downloaded from its updated Wealth-Lab Wiki page, while the Extension downloads on our web site will have to wait for a required fix.

Thank u guys for sharing ur knowledge, end of lastyear i switched from WL4 to WLP5, being new to c# and .net in general, i was and still is on a steep learning curve. I have learned and shamelessly borrowed( really! u can have it back once i am done with it :) ) a lot of techniques/code etc. Hopefully i might be able to contribute in future.

Attention: new version of Community.ChartStyles is out. Added "Dotted ChartStyle" by dansmo (thanks).

Note to users of previous versions: you must uninstall the extension and reinstall it from the site.

Constant Volume Bar Chart
Is the system capable to plot contract base chart rather than time base chart?

Sure, see the Trending ChartStyles (Point & Figure, Renko, Kagi, and Line Break) for examples.

Library updated to 2010.09.

Now includes "Flexible Renko" chart style. Thanks dansmo!

Wealth-Lab 6 users may re-install the library from the Extensions section.

Thanks to our user dansmo, Community ChartStyles has just been updated to version 2010.12.

Summary of changes:

* Changed: Flexible Renko: ChartStyle now uses Daily ATR(14) to calculate the brick size of intraday charts.

hi Eugene hanks for adding heikin ashi to chart styles. i had a question. the heikin ashi chart looks like the ohlc chart but in the code that you had givenme before it was like candlestick which was easier to interpret. how can i change the look of it. thanks.

The HA chart style is programmed to display as bars, it's not possible to change its look w/o a coding effort.

oh I had asked as whereever i read about heikin ashi it was interpreted based on the type of candle that had formed. Is there any minor change i can do as i dont think i can tell the strength of the red bars based on this chart or if the trend is changing.

Thanks for bringing my attention to it. Heiken Ashi colors will be fixed and they will be rendered as candles in the upcoming update.

Community ChartStyles has been updated to version 2011.09.

Summary of changes:

* Changed: Heiken Ashi rendered as candles
* Fixed: Heiken Ashi incorrect coloring of up/down bars

Hi Eugene thanks for updating the Heikin ashi. Have a question when i try to see a chart and stream it the heikin ashi candle is not forming but the candle stick option creates a candle on daily chart. Is that posssible in Heikin ashi and how do I do it? Thanks.

Let's say Streaming is not supported by Heikin Ashi chart style and we don't have any plans to investigate it.

Damir, mastering your search skill may eventually make a good programmer ;)

Eugene thanks,

i will keep that in mind. :-)

Hello,

I am an idiot. How do you install/use the Community ChartStyles Add-In?
Please explain or make into an Extension like the Community Indicators.

No Jake, it's simply that you aren't a MS123 customer and are no longer allowed to download Extensions as our webmaster has made important changes enabling WLP customers to transition to WLD.

Being a Fidelity WLP user, you should have received an email from Fidelity with the transition instructions. Please request it if you haven't gotten it or check your spam/junk mail. Then follow instructions to enroll in the WLD maintenance plan and you should be able to download Extensions again.
