A few months ago, I decided to move beyond using TradingView indicators and try writing my own. Not just tweaking colors or adding an extra MA — but coding something that reflects how I actually think about price action.

Enter: Pine Script.

💡 Why Pine Script?
It’s fast.
It’s simple.
And it’s made for people who want their code to live on the chart, not buried in logs.

My first project? A multi-timeframe breakout scanner that visualizes confluence zones across 4H and daily candles. Pretty basic — but surprisingly powerful.

🔧 Lessons from Building My First Indicator
Here’s what I learned:

Pine syntax is friendlier than most scripting languages

You will get addicted to tweaking conditions endlessly

Plotting clean, readable signals takes more effort than you'd expect

Backtesting in Pine is underrated — especially with alert logic baked in

What surprised me the most though?
How many people wanted to use it once it was public.

🌍 Publishing on TradingView — and Getting Feedback
Once I felt my script was stable, I published it to TradingView’s public script library.
Within a few days, traders started using it — and not just to copy-paste. They were improving on it, adapting it, and even backtesting new versions.

“There’s something very cool about seeing your logic live on someone else’s chart.”

Around that time, I noticed a review campaign from WhiteBIT — they were inviting users who trade via TradingView to share feedback on the integration. Naturally, I joined. If you're already using your TradingView-connected WhiteBIT account to publish or test strategies, you can leave a review and potentially get rewarded. Just another reminder that communities evolve not just by building, but by sharing.

🚀 What’s Next?
I’m now working on version 2:

Cleaner visual layout

Optional sensitivity toggles

Integrated alert templates

Pine Script has made me rethink how I look at every chart. It’s not just about patterns anymore — it’s about expressing strategy in logic.

And if you're even remotely thinking of trying it, do.
From code to candles — the feedback loop is real.
