Converting Indicators to TradingView

Select Convert Indicator when you have complete indicator source from another platform and want to recreate it in Pine Script v6. The result should preserve calculations, configurable inputs and visual output as closely as TradingView allows. Upload the original .txt, .cs, .mq4 or .mq5 source file and identify its platform.

Do not use conversion for an existing .pine file. Choose Existing Indicator for Pine source that needs modification or repair. A screenshot can support visual requirements, but it cannot reveal private formulas or replace the original source.

How indicator conversion works

Indicator platforms use different calculation models, buffers, series and chart APIs. NinjaScript plots, MetaTrader buffers and drawing objects must be mapped to Pine series, plots, shapes, labels or lines. Xen preserves the original intent where Pine has a suitable equivalent and explains behaviour that cannot be reproduced exactly.

Multi-timeframe calculations deserve particular attention because TradingView's request.security() behaviour, bar merging and confirmation rules can differ from the original platform. Review any lookahead or repainting implications before relying on converted signals.

Source code and visual references

Provide the complete source, including inputs and calculation logic. Include custom dependencies or describe their required output. A PNG, JPEG or WebP screenshot can show colours, line styles, markers and pane placement when the selected model supports images, but source remains authoritative for calculations.

Test the converted indicator

Compile the script in Pine Editor and compare values, signals and plots with the original using equivalent symbols, sessions, settings and timeframes. Check early bars, missing data, historical results and real-time updates. Resolve conversion differences before adding unrelated features.
