As said a few weeks ago in the dev log as a reply to your other post I won’t replace tradingview.com (=TV) which already is the perfect tool for manually drawing trendlines into your charts.

Assumably there are some good algorithms/calculations out there for determining trendlines, though. Maybe they’re even easy to implement. In that case adding them into my tool should be possible. Why not? 🤔

But…!

Not sure if that makes sense in the first place because I think trendlines are a thing of personal interpretation of the charts since you sometimes got to ignore several highs and lows and instead you have to concentrate on the more relevant highs and lows of a chart that actually form a trendline.

The more I think about them the more I come to the conclusion that they should be drawn manually and not automatically by the tool. Which then leads me to the decision to leave them out of the tool completely because as I told you earlier, the Trading Helper is not meant to be a replacement of other tools that are way better at custom drawings into the charts – like TV.

I mean, I could at least add “trendlines” as an idea to my backlog. So maybe I will have a deeper thought on that later on. For now I still have my plans which will unfortunately take their time. I am quite busy due to IRL responsibilities (daughter and wife, job, house, cats, rest of family, and whatnot).
But I added it to my list now, so I won’t forget about it in the long run.

Thanks for your input! 😘

Long story short, you have to be very patient for any trendline support being ever added to the tool. Can’t promise anything right now. But I keep it in mind.
