How do I build my own indicator without code?
Indicator Builder, from Indicators › My Indicators or the command palette
The Indicator Builder is a block editor. Blocks run top to bottom; each names a value the blocks below can use, such as a price source, a moving average, an oscillator, a cross or a plot. The preview runs on real recent candles as you build. Save it and it appears under My Indicators on the chart, and as a condition in the strategy builder.
