Pine Script v6 2025 Publishing Requirements

CRITICAL: Use Latest Syntax

Published scripts should use 2025 features for best user experience:

1. Input active Parameter (July 2025)

// ✅ Professional: Conditional input visibility
showAdvanced = input.bool(false, "Advanced Mode", group="Settings")
advSetting = input.int(10, "Advanced Setting",
    group="Settings",
    active=showAdvanced,  // Grayed out when disabled
    tooltip="Only available in Advanced Mode")

2. Plot Line Styles (September 2025)

// ✅ Professional: Visual hierarchy with line styles
plot(mainMA, "Main MA", color.blue, linestyle=plot.linestyle_solid)
plot(signalLine, "Signal", color.yellow, linestyle=plot.linestyle_dashed)
plot(target, "Target", color.green, linestyle=plot.linestyle_dotted)

3. Use for...in for Collections (March 2025)

// ✅ BEST: Use for...in (safe, clean, prevents freezing)
for element in myArray
    // Process element directly

// ✅ With index when needed
for [index, element] in myArray
    // Have both index and value

// ⚠️ FALLBACK: If traditional for needed, cache boundary
arrSize = array.size(myArray)
for i = 0 to arrSize - 1
    // Process...

2025 Feature Checklist for Publication

• Uses active parameter for conditional inputs
• Uses linestyle for visual differentiation
• Loops use for...in (preferred) or cached boundaries
• Ternary operators on single lines (no syntax errors)
• String lengths within 40,960 char limit
