Learn Pine Script professionally
Open since 27 August 2026. The goal is narrow and I wrote it down before I started: be able to spec a Pine Script v6 indicator or strategy to an AI, read the result well enough to prove it does not repaint, publish it, and run it live on alerts.
I write code with an AI, so the skill I need is specifying and auditing, not typing syntax. Logic first. I learn v6 only and skip the older tutorials.
Where it stands
- An eight stage roadmap, each stage ending in something I can check on a real chart.
- Stage 1 is the execution model: the script runs once per bar, left to right, and can only see the bars behind it. Everything else is downstream of that.
- A
/pineskill to do the work with: a v6 reference, templates and a static checker. - The reference came from the official v6 manual, the FAQ, the release notes, PineCoders and 139 production scripts on GitHub.
- The checker flagged 14 errors across that corpus. I checked each one by hand and all 14 were real.
- A 31 case regression suite and a failure log, so a mistake it makes once it does not make twice.
Open questions
- Which market and timeframe this is actually for. It changes what is worth building.
- Broker or bot at the automation end, once the alerts are live.
When a script is published and running live, it gets its own line here.
