Realtime All-Time High and All-Time Low Tracker [WIP]This is a study intended to port the work of /u/QuantNomad's "Kozlod - All-time high/low alerts" to pine version 4 without giving any alerts. It is intended to capture the most extreme points on any given price chart in real time, the absolute high and absolute low points. Ideally, the plotted lines would strictly diverge from one another in opposite directions and widen with new highs or lows on a hypothetical "all-time" resolution.
Most of the original code was replaced and I'm trying to resolve a bug where the script fails to register new highs or lows while at the same time making sure that earlier data is plotted correctly. If applied to an asset that has not yet recovered , is just too new, or has not achieved a lower low than its opening price, this indicator ceases to function correctly. This would not be an issue if pine script was more general purpose and had something similar to Python's max(list) function.
Any and all suggestions are welcome. This is simply to serve as a springboard for any programmers trying to design algorithms or strategies that use these variables on any price chart.
Happy Hunting!
