This plot helps you to show estimate earnings, reported earnings, and surprise earnings of a company inside a chart.
Estimate earnings is the projection of earnings of a company by the analysts for a given period of time.
Earnings is a company's reported profits (or sometimes a loss if going negative) in a given quarter or fiscal year.
Surprise earnings is an earning (or sometimes a loss if going negative) which is above (or even below) the estimated or reported earnings.
Estimate earning is plotted by white lines
Reported Earnings is plotted by columns, where positive number is blue and negative number is purple.
Surprise Earnings is plotted by columns, where positive number is green and negative number is red.
You surely will be able to tweak and customize all the colors above with color you find comfortable.
Since earnings are reported every quarter of the year, this plot will gives a good view when you put it inside a 3 Months timeframe.
Hope this helpful.

Update 29 Nov 2021 (v.0.2)
Change Estimated Earnings chart type from line to stepline to make it easier to see.
Adds Standardized Earnings into indicator, because sometimes the company doesn't provide much detailed information. If you browse a stocks that doesn't have earnings information, you need to enable Standardized Earnings first because it's unticked by default.
thanks, great one ! can you add the next estimate earning in the chart?

Can't believe this script has so little views. I have a question though: In what scale is the earnings (estimate, actual and standardized) coming? I can't find it anywhere in the documentation nor reverse engineer it. I wanted to calculate the price earnings using the estimate as a base, but i just can't seem to figure it out.

@lambdabr, Hi, the earnings chart comes from quarterly report that company has released. When you see certain chart of company, on the bottom of the screen it may show the Dividend symbol and sometimes the earnings is also there. This chart is plotting that symbol into the screen so we can see it easily instead of hovering at each symbol 3 months back to back.
