❗️WARNING

There is currently a problem on the platform where script updates sometimes cause the publication to become an idea, rendering the publication useless.

Until TradingView resolves the problem, it will be safest to avoid updating your script publications for the time being. We will keep you updated on the issue. Apologies for the inconvenience.
