Pine Script v6 migration checklist

These lines don't compile in v6, or behave differently. Check each one (TradingView's guide).

Line 1: Script targets Pine Script v5 (current is v6)Caution
Line 1 declares //@version=5. Changing the header alone does not convert the script: v6 changed how bools, division, conditions and some strategy settings behave.
Fix: Convert it with the Pine Editor's built-in converter (TradingView's migration guide shows where), then work through the items listed here.

What causes it

The label.new() under the if is not indented, so the compiler reads the if as having no body. This is Pine v5's wording.

The fix, compiled

Indent label.new() four spaces under the if.

Prints the error at line 4

//@version=5
indicator("My script", overlay = true)
if close > open
label.new(bar_index, high, "Up")
plot(close)

Compiles with no error

//@version=6
indicator("My script", overlay = true)
if close > open
    label.new(bar_index, high, "Up")
plot(close)

Compiled on TradingView 23 October 2026. The checker above reads repaint and v6 migration patterns; TradingView's compiler is the final word on whether a script compiles.

Method and privacy

Method: The script loaded in the checker was compiled on TradingView's Pine compiler on 23 October 2026 as //@version=5, and printed this error at line 4; the fix below compiled with no error or warning. Names such as variables come from the example and will differ in your script.
