DrawIndicatorOnTheChartLibrary "DrawIndicatorOnTheChart"
this library is used to show an indicator (such RSI, CCI, MOM etc) on the main chart with indicator's horizontal lines in a window. Location of the window is calculated dynamically by last price movemements
drawIndicator(indicatorName, indicator, indicatorcolor, period, indimax_, indimin_, levels, precision, xlocation) draws the related indicator on the chart
Parameters:
indicatorName : is the indicator name as string such "RSI", "CCI" etc
indicator : is the indicator you want to show, such rsi(close, 14), mom(close, 10) etc
indicatorcolor : is the color of indicator line
period : is the length of the window to show
indimax_ : is the maximum value of the indicator, for example for RSI it's 100.0, if the indicator (such CCI, MOM etc) doesn't have maximum value then use "na"
indimin_ : is the minimum value of the indicator, for example for RSI it's 0.0, if the indicator (such CCI, MOM etc)doesn't have maximum value then use "na"
levels : is the levels of the array for the horizontal lines. for example if you want horizontal lines at 30.0, and 70.0 then use array.from(30.0, 70.0). if no horizontal lines then use array.from(na)
precision : is the precision/number of decimals that is used to show indicator values, for example for RSI set it 2
xlocation : is end location of the indicator window, for example if xlocation = 0 window is created on the index of the last bar/candle
Returns: none

SignificantFiguresLibrary "SignificantFigures"
sigFig(float _float, int _figures)
@description Takes a floating-point number - one that can, but doesn't have to, include a decimal point - and converts it to a floating-point number with only a certain number of digits left. For example, say you want to display a variable from your script to the user and it comes out to something like 45.366666666666666666666667 or whatever. That looks awful when you, for example, print it in a label. Now you could round it up to the nearest integer easily using a built-in function, or even to a certain number of decimal places using a reasonably simple custom function. But that's a bit arbitrary. Suppose you don't know what asset the script will be used on, and so you can't predict what the price is, and what the value will turn out to be. It could be 0.00045366666666666666666666667 instead. Now if you round it up to 3 decimal places it comes out as 0.000, which is useless. My function will round that number to 0.0004536 instead, if told to do it to 4 significant digits.
I think this is more friendly.
@function Converts float with arbitrary number of digits to one with a specified number of significant figures.
@param float _float is the floating-point number to manipulate.
@param int _figures is the number of significant figures you want.
@returns Returns a float with the specified number of significant figures
