Can someone please convert this indicator from tradingview to nt8

Hello,

I have a chandelier exit that I love using as part of a strategy for tradingview. It plots slightly different on the tradingview indicator versus any of the nt8 versions I have found so if anyone could direct me where I could go to get the code translated I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank You

study("Chandelier Exit", shorttitle="CE", overlay=true)

length = input(title="ATR Period", type=input.integer, defval=22)

useClose = input(title="Use Close Price for Extremums ?", type=input.bool, defval=true)
highlightState = input(title="Highlight State ?", type=input.bool, defval=true)

atr = mult * atr(length)

longStop = (useClose ? highest(close, length) : highest(length)) - atr
longStopPrev = nz(longStop[1], longStop)
longStop := close[1] > longStopPrev ? max(longStop, longStopPrev) : longStop

shortStop = (useClose ? lowest(close, length) : lowest(length)) + atr
shortStopPrev = nz(shortStop[1], shortStop)
shortStop := close[1] < shortStopPrev ? min(shortStop, shortStopPrev) : shortStop

The Chandelier Stop can be calculated in different ways:

- Donchian anchor (highest high since N bars) versus highest high since in position
- Calculation from highest high / lowest low (standard) versus calculation from highest close / lowest close
- Calculation as trailing stop (no widening of stop allowed when volatility increases) versus stop that may widen
- Design to revert intra-bar when touched (such as a hard stop) or to revert based on the close

Best you post a simple 5-min or 15-min chart of ES 06-22 or NQ 06-22 with the Chandelier Stop applied.

That way it is possible to find out which version you are looking for.
