Getting Started

Next Steps

You built your first indicator. Here is where to go next, framed by what you will want to do.

You have a working indicator and you understand the three parts every script shares. From here, pick the path that matches what you want to do next.

Where to go from here

  • Want to build something real? The Cookbook has complete, copy-ready recipes for genuinely useful indicators: aggregated CVD, supply and demand zones, anchored VWAP, and more. Each one is a finished script you can read end to end and adapt.

  • Want to understand how your code actually runs? Core Concepts: Execution Model explains how the engine walks your script bar by bar, oldest candle to newest. Once this clicks, the way series and history indexing ([0], [1]) work will feel obvious.

  • Ready for kScript's superpower? Multi-Source and Aggregation shows how to pull data from more than one symbol or venue in a single script and combine them. This is what makes kScript different: cross-exchange studies, aggregated metrics, and order-flow analysis you can't easily do elsewhere.

  • Looking for the right function? The TA Library is the full catalog of technical-analysis functions (moving averages, oscillators, bands, and more) when you need an indicator beyond sma and ema. The Plotting reference covers every way to draw: lines, bars, candles, shapes, labels, and tables.

  • Something not working? Common Errors lists the messages you are most likely to hit, what causes each, and how to fix it. If your script ran but drew nothing, start there.
