Post From: Study/Price Overlay Programming Help

The Study/Price Overlay, in this case it is a 'color background based on condition' study, on the 'destination' chart during back testing is applied/constructed on each consecutive 'destination' chart candle, bit by bit, during back testing, which is correct. See attached images and linked short videos.

The identical studies during forward testing do not behave the same, this is a huge coding error, study constructs the colored background all at once, in one step, after the 5th candle is complete, instantly appearing. See attached image and linked short videos.

This huge difference in behavior results in the order(s) being placed at the 1st of 5 candles on the 'destination' chart, vs the last of 5 candles, resulting in huge losses.

Please fix this as soon as possible.

Files:
"Raw Screenshot" shows where the orders are placed, both back testing (left) and forward testing (right) 'error' related to the color background based on condition
"Study/Price Overlay Settings" shows just that
"Trading System Based On Alert Condition" shows settings as well

Thank you
