Pine Script Tips

Writing effective prompts

The quality of AI-generated Pine Script depends heavily on how you describe what you want.

Good prompt examples

Specific and clear:

"Write a Pine Script indicator that shows a 20 EMA and 50 EMA. When the 20 crosses above the 50, plot a green arrow below the bar. When it crosses below, plot a red arrow above."

Includes visual preferences:

"Create a volume-weighted RSI indicator. Display it in a separate pane as a histogram. Color bars green when above 50, red when below."

Common patterns

The AI understands most standard indicator patterns:

• Moving averages (SMA, EMA, WMA)
• Oscillators (RSI, MACD, Stochastic)
• Bands (Bollinger, Keltner)
• Volume indicators
• Custom price patterns
