Path of the Planets

🪐 Path of the Planets

Path of the Planets is an open-source Pine Script™ v6 indicator. It is inspired by W.D. Gann’s Path of Planets chart, specifically the Chart 5-9 artistic replica by Patrick Mikula "shown below". The script visualizes planetary positions so you can explore possible correlations with price. It overlays geocentric and heliocentric longitudes and declinations using the AstroLib library and includes an optional positions table that shows, at a glance, each body’s geocentric longitude, heliocentric longitude, and declination. This is an educational tool only and not trading advice.

Key Features
Start point: Choose a date and time to begin plotting so studies can align with market events.

Adjustments: Mirror longitudes and shift by 360° multiples to re-frame cycles.

Planets: Toggle geocentric and heliocentric longitudes and declinations for Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. Moon declination is available.

Positions table: Optional color-coded table (bottom-right) with three columns labeled Geo, Helio, and Dec. Values show degrees with the zodiac sign for the longitudes and degrees for declinations.

Visualization: Solid lines for geocentric longitudes, circles for heliocentric longitudes, and columns for declinations. Includes a zero-declination reference line.

How It Works

Converts bar timestamps to Julian days via AstroLib.

Fetches positions with AstroLib types: geocentric (0), heliocentric (1), and declination (3).

Normalizes longitudes to the −180° to +180° range, applies optional mirroring and 360° shifts, and converts longitudes to zodiac sign labels for the table.

Plots and the table update only on and after the selected start time.

Usage Tips

Apply on daily or higher timeframes when studying broader cycles. For degrees, use the left scale.

Limitations at the moment: default latitude, longitude, and timezone are set to 0; aspects and retrogrades are not included; the focus is on raw paths.

Path of the Planets v2.0

What's New

Library Migration
Switched from Barefoot Joey's AstroLib to BlueprintResearch/lib_ephemeris - our open-source VSOP87/ELP2000 implementation.

Future Projections
Project planetary longitudes and declinations up to 500 bars ahead with configurable settings.

Visual Refresh
Cleaner declination styling with solid outlines and transparent fills. Removed external color library dependency.

Better Defaults
Helio longitudes and outer planet declinations are now off by default for a cleaner initial view.

Bug Fixes
Fixed polyline artifacts that appeared when new bars formed.

Notas de Lançamento

Path of the Planets — v2.1

Migrated to Blueprint Ephemeris Library
- Switched from the old 11-library import chain (lib_ephemeris) to the new single consolidated library (blueprint_ephemeris_lib)
- Faster loading — one import instead of cascading dependencies

Improved Accuracy
- All planetary longitudes now accurate to < 0.1° (was ~0.75°)
- Fixed precession coefficients for all 8 VSOP87 planets

No other changes — same features, same UI, same colors.
