This study is based on the Donchain Channel Bar indicator but this adds security as a parameter. This allows several instances of this indicator to be used in the same page to create a heat map to take look at a glance at several securities, just like the example where this was implemented.
The only two parameters it requires are the security symbol and the length of the analysis.
