Hello I like the zigzag with volume tool but it seems to have a limitation. I am trying to do a very small scale chart for day trading with zigzag reversals of 1 pip and less with a small time frame like 15 seconds. When I try to do this basically the program stalls. I have the tick size to .000025. I don't understand why this is so hard to do for this program. I have tried multiple times and basically get ...calculating studies but never works. This smallest zigzag I have achieved is 3 pips. I am using
the number 2 reversal which is straight pip size not percentage.

Tell us the exact symbol of the chart.

Tell us the first 9 Input settings for the Zig Zag study you are using. No need for the names. Just the actual Input values themselves.

We do not see any problems with these settings. Even with 60 days loaded for EURUSD using all of the settings that you gave, the calculation time for the Zig Zag study is under 500 milliseconds.



We are testing on version 1558. Update to that version.
