About

The trend of three higher intervals from closed bars only (no lookahead): an EMA of each interval is plotted as a step line and summarised in a table with RSI and direction.

How it runs

From source to the live chart, for this script

  1. 1
    Compile

    The QuaScript compiler checks the 42-line script (36 lines of code) and lowers it for the native C++ engine. Compile errors point at the exact line and column.

  2. 2
    Place

    The header sets overlay = true, so everything is drawn on the price chart, on the same scale as the candles.

  3. 3
    Compute

    The script runs once per bar, oldest to newest. 1 persist variable keeps state (objects, counters) across bars.

  4. 4
    Higher intervals

    6 feed.series calls pull bars of other intervals into the same run, aligned to the chart's bars without look-ahead.

  5. 5
    Stay live

    On the terminal the script keeps one live engine session: a tick rolls the forming bar back to its checkpoint and re-executes only that bar, and new bars are appended, so history is never rerun while the market moves. The live result is identical to a full run.

  6. 6
    Render

    The results are handed to the chart: series on Canvas.

  7. 7
    Tune

    4 settings in 1 group appear in the chart's settings dialog. Changing one reruns the engine with the new value.

Rendering

This script draws on Canvas

WebGPUNot used

The browser's modern GPU API. The chart uploads every line, band and mark of the script as GPU buffers and draws them in one pass, so dense heatmaps and dozens of series stay smooth while you pan and zoom. Without WebGPU support the chart's GPU layer falls back to WebGL 2, then Canvas 2D.

WebGLNot used

GPU drawing through WebGL 2, available in every current browser. Used for chart-native profiles and for series that ask for it with backend = "webgl". Fast for large numbers of bars and wide fills.

CanvasSeries renderer

The browser's 2D drawing API. Text-heavy and object-style output (dashboard tables, zones, tags, segments), candle colors and backgrounds are painted by the QuaScript layer, a Canvas 2D surface over the chart. Series use Canvas when the script's header does not ask for a GPU.

In this script
  • • 3 plotted series
  • • 1 dashboard tables (QuaScript layer)
  • • candle colors (QuaScript layer)
