pine script latest version

As of July 2026, the latest version of Pine Script is v6. TradingView released v6 in November 2024, and every update since applies exclusively to it. There is no v7. The most recent additions shipped in April 2026 (multiline strings, UDT sorting, and a word-wrap editor default), building on a run of monthly updates like footprint data requests in January 2026. If you are still writing //@version5 at the top of your scripts, you are locked out of every new feature TradingView has released for over 18 months. I am Jayadev Rana, a TradingView-certified Pine Script developer. In my 8 years coding Pine Script, I have migrated hundreds of client indicators and strategies across every version bump, and the jump from v5 to v6 is the biggest one since v4. Below I break down what version you should be on, what v6 actually gives you, and the exact behavior changes that will break old code if you copy-paste it. What is the current Pine Script version in 2026? The current version is Pine Script v6. When TradingView graduated Pine to v6 in November 2024, they stated plainly that "future Pine updates will apply exclusively to this version." That is the key point most outdated blog posts miss: v5 scripts still run, but they will never receive a single new function, variable, or fix again. Everything new is v6-only. You set the version with the compiler annotation on the first line of any script: //@version6 indicator("My v6 script", overlay true) plot(ta.sma(close, 20), "SMA 20", color.orange) If you open an old script in the Pine Editor and it starts with //@version5, TradingView will still compile it, but the "Convert to v6" button in the editor is there for a reason. Pine Script v6: the core new features Here is what shipped with the v6 release itself, straight from TradingView's release notes: Dynamic requests. You can now pass a "series string" to request.*() functions, and call them inside loops, if blocks, and library functions. In v5, a single request.security() call could only ever point at one symbol. In v6, one call can switch its data feed on every bar. Booleans are strictly true or false. A bool value can never be na in v6. The and/or operators also got short-circuit ("lazy") evaluation, which speeds up conditional-heavy scripts. Negative array indexing. array.get(myArray, -1) now returns the last element, -2 the second-to-last, and so on. The 9,000-trade backtest limit is gone. Strategies no longer stop and throw an error at 9,000 trades outside Deep Backtesting. Instead they trim the oldest orders and keep simulating. Enums, text formatting, and point-based text sizes. Labels, boxes, and tables now accept int point sizes and a text_formatting parameter for bold/italic. If you want these built into a production strategy without doing the migration yourself, that is exactly the kind of work I handle through my Pine Script development service. What changed from v5 to v6 (the code-breaking parts) Two changes will silently break old logic if you just bump the version number. I have debugged both on real client scripts, so pay attention here. 1. Integer division now keeps the remainder In v5, dividing two const int values discarded the fraction: 5 / 2 gave 2. In v6, 5 / 2 equals 2.5 regardless of the values' type or qualifier. If your old indexing or lookback math relied on integer truncation, it will now drift. The fix is explicit: //@version6 indicator("Integer division in v6") // v5 behaviour gave 2 here; v6 gives 2.5 float raw 5 / 2 // Force integer truncation when you actually need it: int fixed int(5 / 2) // 2 plot(fixed) 2. No more implicit int/float to bool casting In v5 you could write if close or if myLength and Pine would treat 0/na as false and anything else as true. v6 removes that implicit cast. You must test explicitly: //@version6 indicator("Explicit bool test") float value ta.change(close) // v5: if value -> v6 requires an explicit comparison bool isUp value > 0 // Test for na directly with the na() function: bool missing na(value) plot(isUp ? 1 : 0) These are the two migration traps I see most often.

What TradingView added to v6 through 2025 and 2026 Because all updates now land on v6, the feature list has grown almost every month. Here are the confirmed additions from the official release notes, most recent first: UpdateWhat it added April 2026Multiline strings (triple-quote """..."""), sorting arrays/matrices of user-defined types via a sort_field parameter, and a "use word wrap by default" editor setting. January 2026request.footprint() plus new footprint and volume_row types for volume footprint analysis (Premium/Ultimate plans). December 2025Relaxed line-wrapping indentation rules for expressions inside parentheses. November 2025syminfo.isin variable exposing a security's 12-character ISIN. October 2025timeframe_bars_back parameter on time() and time_close(). September 2025linestyle parameter on plot() for dashed and dotted lines. August 2025Maximum string length raised from 4,096 to 40,960 characters; Pine Editor moved to a side panel. July 2025active parameter on all input*() functions to grey out dependent inputs. February 2025Scope count limit (previously 550) removed; new bid and ask variables (only on the "1T" timeframe). The April 2026 multiline string syntax is a genuine quality-of-life win. You can now write readable label text without a wall of \n escapes: //@version6 indicator("Multiline string demo") string msg """Signal: LONG Entry confirmed on close. Risk sized to 1% of equity.""" if barstate.islast label.new(bar_index, high, msg, textalign text.align_left) Should you migrate your v5 scripts to v6? Short answer: yes, if the script is still in active use. The upside is access to 18+ months of features and better runtime performance from short-circuit evaluation. The risk is the two silent behavior changes above. My practical rule from years of doing this: never bump //@version and assume it works. Test the migrated script side-by-side against the original on the same chart, especially anything using integer math, numeric-as-bool shortcuts, or request.security(). If you are automating execution to a broker afterward, the same care applies to your webhook and bridge layer, which I cover on my MT4/MT5 automation page. Frequently asked questions Is Pine Script v6 available now? Yes. Pine Script v6 has been available to all TradingView users since November 2024 and is the default version for new scripts. You do not need a paid plan to use core v6 features, though a few additions like footprint requests require Premium or Ultimate. When was Pine Script v6 released? TradingView released Pine Script v6 in November 2024. From that release onward, all new Pine features apply only to v6. What is the latest Pine Script version? The latest version is v6. As of July 2026, the most recent feature update was shipped in April 2026, adding multiline strings and UDT collection sorting. There is no v7 as of this writing. What are the main new features in Pine Script v6? The headline v6 features are dynamic requests (series-string arguments in request.*()), strictly-boolean bool values with short-circuit and/or, negative array indexing, removal of the 9,000-trade backtest limit, and enums. Later 2025-2026 updates added footprint data, bid/ask variables, and multiline strings. Will my old v5 scripts still work? Yes, v5 scripts still compile and run. They just will not receive any new features, and if you convert them to v6 you need to watch for the integer-division and implicit-bool-cast changes.
