Translating a simple script from Tradingview into Tradovate
CompletedHey all! I'm trying to translate a basic indicator from Tradingview into Tradovate that simply plots different standard deviation levels.
Is there someone who can help me go from "pine" to java?
//Tradingview Script
study(title="Std Dev", shorttitle="StdDev", precision=6, overlay=true)
//Inputs
iv = input(0.15, "IV")
dte = input(1, "DTE")
//Variables
price = security(tickerid, "D", open[0])
srt = sqrt(dte/252)
dev = iv * price * srt
//Neutral Line
plot(price + (dev*0), color=yellow)
//Positive Devs
plot(price + (dev*0.25), color=green)
plot(price + (dev*0.5), color=green)
plot(price + (dev*0.75), color=green)
plot(price + (dev*1.0), color=green)
plot(price + (dev*1.5), color=green)
//Negative Devs
plot(price - (dev*0.25), color=red)
plot(price - (dev*0.5), color=red)
plot(price - (dev*0.75), color=red)
plot(price - (dev*1.0), color=red)
plot(price - (dev*1.5), color=red)
//End script

Aloha! I've always loved this concept so happy to provide! Configuration options are detailed below.
Can you recommend an easy (free online?) way to find the Implied Volatility value for a given contract?

Look for Tiki IV Levels in the Community Indicators.

Configuration options:
IV: The Implied Volatility as percentage (i.e. 15%). This will vary by product, and you will need to use another platform like Thinkorswim to get this.
Days: The range in days of the expected move.
Step: The width of the levels, default is 1/4 of the standard deviation, so the 4th band is 1 Standard Deviation. Change this to 0.5 to have the 2nd band out be 1 standard deviation, for example.
Type: Chart is the default and will reset the levels when the market opens. Switching to session lets you reset the levels at a given time every day, perhaps at the market settle time.
Session Hours/Minutes: When the Type is set to Session, use this to configure the time to reset the levels and start a new day.

I just saw this fantastic indicator and I wanted to let you know that the free version of CME Group's Quikstrike has daily implied volatility listed for all the contracts they offer. Their Vol2Vol tool within Quikstrike is where I go for daily implied volatility.
