The Ultimate TradingView Pine v6 Footprint Guide: Build an Order Flow X-Ray in 10 Lines

💡 TL;DR / Summary - Key Takeaways Pine Script v6 Revolution: Replaces high-latency legacy v5 client-side arrays with the server-side native request.footprint() API, ensuring zero-lag and exact tick-level precision. Premium Plan Requirement: This API is resource-intensive and restricted to Premium and Ultimate plans. Lower-tier plans return na and render a blank chart silently.
