Real-time chart analysis needs deterministic updates per bar and explicit handling of warm-up periods. CG addresses this by implementing Calculates Ehlers' Center of Gravity indicator with parameterized inputs and direct state progression.
This implementation favors streaming execution over batch recomputation. The trade-off is more attention to state initialization, but latency stays predictable when charts scale.
Calculates Ehlers' Center of Gravity indicator
| Parameter | Purpose |

default: 10, label: "Length" |
i_source |
input.source |
default: close, label: "Source" |
- Declared optimization: for performance and dirty data
- Streaming model: single-pass update on each new bar.
- Warm-up behavior: outputs can be unstable until enough samples satisfy
length. - Memory model: state is kept in Pine series context rather than external buffers.
Streaming logic keeps incremental cost stable, but initialization and edge-case handling become first-class concerns. That is a deliberate choice: predictable execution beats opaque recalculation spikes in live charts.
- Open the script in TradingView and confirm it compiles under Pine Script v6.
- Validate warm-up behavior on sparse data and short histories.
- Compare output against a trusted reference implementation for the same parameters.
- Confirm parameter bounds reject invalid values without silent fallback.
