Hi,

On my spreadsheet trading system i seted up option "Signal Only On Bar Close" to " YES " on both sides. So when i using 30m chart i should recieved signal only every 17:00,17:30,18:00 etc. I dont know why last day i start recieving signals on random time like 17:22, 18:12 etc. I dont know where is problem. I nothing changed. When i run backtest of my strategy from last 40 days. Every 68 orders is fine, max 1 minute different. But from yeasterday 18.06.2018 i recieved 3 signals with wrong time. Where can be problem ?

My time is OK. It makes no sense to me. Why results from last 2 month are okey and just from last days are wrong ? That cant be because i have clock issues.

We are going to be doing some testing and determine what the issue is.

We have been unable to reproduce this, but the particular order fill date-time that you see should be near the beginning of the very next bar. Being these are 30 minute bars, you should see a date-time at least 30 minutes into the future as compared to the starting date-time of the bar being evaluated. We are seeing earlier than that and we are not sure why.

The only thing we can think of at this time to suggest is to use the very latest prerelease which we are currently testing on. Or it could be some sort of data time stamping issue. So the problem could be with the underlying data.

Okay now we understand the problem. We are declining support for this. Do not use the Renko study. We provide no support for that whatsoever and we are going to need to remove it.

Use the Renko bars as documented here:

The Renko bar size is specified in ticks and it uses all of the data. So the high and low values will be used.


You just need to follow through the instructions here:

Only in the latest pre-release and that is explained here:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/Whats_New.php#SCVer1778

Not in the version you are running.

We need more information about the issue you are having in order to understand it. What exactly do you mean by "stopped works".

Well there certainly is going to be a difference in the results with using the true Renko bars in the Chart Settings. That does not mean you are doing anything wrong.
