None that I can see! The form seems to submit, the page redirects, but the field value is null:

if( 'POST' == $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] && !empty( $_POST['action'] ) &&  $_POST['action'] == "new_post" ) { 
  // Do some minor form validation to make sure there is content
  if (isset ($_POST['title'])) {
      $title =  $_POST['title'];
  } else {
      echo 'Please enter a  title';
  }
  if (isset ($_POST['description'])) {
      $description = $_POST['description'];
  } else {
      echo 'Please enter the content';
  }
  
  $trendline_20 = serialize(array($_POST['trendline_20-m5bull'], $_POST['trendline_20-m5bear'], $_POST['trendline_20-m15bull'], $_POST['trendline_20-m15bear'], $_POST['trendline_20-m30bull'], $_POST['trendline_20-m30bear'], $_POST['trendline_20-h1bull'], $_POST['trendline_20-h1bear'], $_POST['trendline_20-h2bull'], $_POST['trendline_20-h2bear'], $_POST['trendline_20-h4bull'], $_POST['trendline_20-h4bear'], $_POST['trendline_20-d1bull'], $_POST['trendline_20-d1bear']));
  $option_liquidity = $_POST['option_liquidity'];
  $option_liquidity_min = $_POST['option_liquidity_min'];
  $option_liquidity_max = $_POST['option_liquidity_max'];
   
  // Add the content of the form to $post as an array
  $new_post = array(
      'post_title'    => $title,
      'post_content'  => $description,
      'post_status'   => 'draft',           // Choose: publish, preview, future, draft, etc.
      'post_type' => 'custom_scan'  //'post',page' or use a custom post type if you want to
  );
  //save the new post
  $post_id = wp_insert_post($new_post);

  global $wpdb;

  $wpdb->query(
    "INSERT INTO wp_postmeta (post_id, meta_key, meta_value) 
      VALUES ($post_id, 'trendline_20', $trendline20),($post_id, '_trendline_20', 'field_634819cc60fd8')"
  );

  //redirect
  wp_redirect(get_permalink($post_id)); exit;
} ?>
