Im using a RENKO chart through CHART--->Chart Settings etc... For example using Mode 2 with a 1 bar reversal and hi/lo (in settings) both set to RENKO CLOSE When "Calculate new values on bar close" is set to YES, Zig Zag displays CORRECTLY (this doesnt show activity at current price and have to wait for bar to close) When "Calculate new values on bar close" is set to NO (i.e. realtime @ price) the Zig Zag will always close on the High of the next bar reversal, NOT the RENKO Close of the last Renko up bar . HOWEVER, when I RECALCULATE the chart it corrects this error but this is very annoying especially if market is moving fast or you forget hence the information is then meaningless. Also, couldnt upload charts via SC as this wasnt possible when capturing the error in 2 images so apologies for that. Cheers |

Why doesnt enabling Calulate new values on bar close keep the current live price updating, it remains one bar behind? However if I leave this option disabled hence getting "live" updating at price, when bar completes (and plots incorrectly) when you recalculate chart all is ok. Surely this is what the Calc new values option is supposed to do? - Keep updating realtime and on bar completion, recalculate chart? Or maybe not? Cheers |
