'Tether depeg duration
Context
On May 12th, Tether ($USDT) significantly departed from it's peg of $1.
Indicator
I'd like to have an indicator which shows the number of continuous hours that Tether has been depegged.
We'll define depegged a candle where the high is less than 1.
Script
Here's a version of the script that appears to work:
indicator("Tether depeg hours", overlay = true)
n = ta.barssince(high[1] >= 1)
hours = math.round(timeframe.in_seconds() * n / 60 / 60)
if hours > 4 and (high >= 1 or barstate.islast)
label.new(bar_index, na, str.tostring(hours) + "\nhours", yloc = yloc.abovebar, textcolor = color.white)
Here's what it looks like:
Question
Is this the recommended approach for a script like this?
Or is there a more idiomatic approach?
Also, if there's already scripts out there that do something similar to this, references to those are welcome.
