This is guaranteed to cause a loss of synchronization and that should be obvious why. Jumping ahead by one bar, with bar time frames are different between the charts is going to cause a loss of synchronization. You can only jump forward by time. A Renko bar isn't based on time. Its based on price movement. So to say that "You can only jump forward by time" on a Renko chart, makes no sense. The main chart that the replay is done on (Renko Chart )and the 5 min chart is the linked/following chart. Logic would think that when the Renko chart is jumped one bar, then the 5 min chart should move forward as many minutes(bars) it took to form that new Renko bar and have the same current price as the Renko bar. If the 5 min charts has to move 60(5 min)bars forward to keep the current price in sync with the current price of the Renko bar. Then that is what should happen. Why should current market price be different based on the type of chart used? That's like saying a trader who uses a 5 min chart to trade gets a different current market price from the exchange then a trader who uses a Renko chart to trade. When Im watching a Renko chart in live mode and price hasn't moved enough to create a new renko bar, but 30 mins has past in time. Six (5 minute bar)would have printed on the 5 min chart and the current price would still be the same as the Renko chart.
