[Programming Help] - Open and close Study Settings often needed

Hello

My chart studies often display incorrect data until I manually open Study Settings and click "OK," typically twice after reloading/recalculating charts or adding studies.

For example a study in Chart Region 3 should have bars matching the color of bars in Chart Region 4. Initially, the bars are misaligned. After opening the Study Settings for any study on chart and clicking "OK," the top left shows "Calculating Studies..." and then it loads correctly for a few bars then it starts getting misaligned shortly after a few bars. I have video if needed.

I have various studies on various charts. I upgraded hardware and optimized software, however this did not fix the issue.

Can you advise:


1. Are there settings to fix this that come to mind?
2. Can I automate the "OK" action via ACSIL, most of my studies are my custom studies? (resulting in a calculating studies action I presume)

You can use a study to recalculate the chart automatically: Chart Recalculation - Periodic

But that is a bit of patch/hack, you'd be better off actually fixing your custom studies so that they behave correctly.
It sounds like a logic error or a precedence error (if you custom studies are dependant on other studies).

My custom studies do depend on other studies. So this would be a precedence error? Meaning that the order in which they are in the Studies window matters?
