Multi Pane Analysis

Multi-Pane Cross-Asset Analysis

You are using TradingView's pane layouts to reason across several correlated instruments at once.

Power-toolkit shortcuts: snapshot the current layout with state_snapshot before mutating it (so the user can state_restore afterwards). Use chart_vision_read per active pane to grab everything (image + indicators + Pine graphics) in one call.

Step 1: Choose the Layout

1. pane_set_layout — typical choices:
   • "2x2" for four symbols (e.g., the index complex)
   • "1x2" / "2x1" for two
   • "1x3" / "3x1" for three

Example — index complex: pane_set_layout({ layout: "2x2" }).

Step 2: Assign Symbols

Use pane_set_symbol once per pane. Common correlated baskets:

• US Index complex: ES1! (SP500), NQ1! (Nasdaq), YM1! (Dow), RTY1! (Russell)
• Energy: CL1! (WTI), BZ1! (Brent), NG1! (Nat Gas), XLE
• Metals: GC1! (Gold), SI1! (Silver), HG1! (Copper), PL1! (Platinum)
• Crypto majors: BTCUSD, ETHUSD, SOLUSD, TOTAL
• Risk-on/off: SPY, TLT, DXY, VIX

pane_set_symbol({ pane: 0, symbol: "ES1!" })
pane_set_symbol({ pane: 1, symbol: "NQ1!" })
pane_set_symbol({ pane: 2, symbol: "YM1!" })
pane_set_symbol({ pane: 3, symbol: "RTY1!" })

If a pane errors with CHART_LOADING, wait ~2s before querying that pane.

Step 3: Align Timeframes

Either set each pane's timeframe via pane_set_symbol (if it accepts tf) or loop through panes calling chart_set_timeframe after pane_focus. All panes should match (e.g., all 15m) for valid comparison.

Step 4: Stream or Poll

Two modes:

• Stream — tv stream all (or whatever live-stream entrypoint is wired) for push updates across all panes
• Poll — pane_list to enumerate panes, then per-pane quote_get + data_get_ohlcv with summary: true

For a point-in-time analysis, polling is simpler. For live monitoring over 30+ min, stream.

Step 5: Compute Relative Moves

For each pane, pull:

• quote_get — current price + change%
• data_get_ohlcv with summary: true, count: 20 — recent range

Compute normalized % moves since session open (or since any anchor bar). The leader is the one with the largest % change in the dominant direction; the laggard is the smallest; divergence is when one pane goes opposite the rest.

Example output:

ES1!  +0.42%  (laggard)
NQ1!  +0.91%  (LEADER — tech leading risk-on)
YM1!  +0.18%
RTY1! -0.35%  (DIVERGENCE — small caps down while indices up)

Step 6: Annotate Divergences

If you spot a divergence:

1. pane_focus on the divergent pane
2. draw_shape with text marking the divergence bar
3. capture_screenshot with region: "full" so all four panes are in frame

Step 7: Report

Provide the cross-asset read:

• Leader / laggard / divergent with % moves
• Correlation check — are the normally-correlated pairs still in sync? (e.g., ES/NQ typically correlated; if they split, note it)
• Actionable interpretation — e.g., "RTY1! weakness while ES1!/NQ1! rally = narrow breadth, fade long setups on indices"

Cleanup

If the user wanted a single-pane view back:

• pane_set_layout with "1x1"
• Or state_restore if a prior snapshot exists
