Supertrend – Pine Script Indicator with Nifty Future charts

This is my first indicator from a series of Pinescript Indicators. And of course, supertrend is one of my favorite indicators. So love to take this opportunity to code it in Pinescript supported by Tradingview charts with a huge community following.

Already Supertrend is enough spoken here. Those who are very new to Supertrend can follow this article here 10 things to know about Supertrend v2.0 AFL code

Tradingview users can use the Supertrend Indicator from the Public Library

  5. Hello Rajandran

    I have just come across your SuperTrend V1.0 script and it’s awesome. What’s the current version and can I have it?

    Thanks

  6. Dear Rajandran

    Can you tell me if the Supertrend V1.0 – Buy or Sell Signal indicator is available for MT4?

    If so I would like to carry it over to my broker platform for ease of execution.

    With regards.

  7. Hello Rajandran,

    I found your script about Supertrend indicator very interesting.

    However, the is something in it I do not understand. Perhaps you could leave me some lines.

    The calculation of variable TrendUp uses TrendUp[1]. But this previous TrendUp seems to me that is never calculated. For example, there is no “once” statement.

    How is TrendUp getting its first value in the script? Once I understand where this first value comes from, I will fully understand.

    Thank you in advance

    1. Initally TrendUp sets with null values automatically. So TrendUp[0] is initialized to null and rest other calculation does in recursive mode.

  8. Dear Rajendran,

    Wonderful work, can you please share latest script v4 for TradingView? I can see only v1 in your page also in Trading view?

  9. Hello Rajendran,
    I am using your Supertend script v1.0 in the free version of Tradingview. I wanted also the default MACD indicator alolng with your Supertrend. I treid to modify your script, but getting some error.
    Can you please help me?
