Historical and Realtime

[Edward Kunafi]

Hello Support,

My indicator has historical and realtime plot. It is working ok except when I load the chart not at the rightmost (ie. last bar is not in the viewed chart page), the historical are plotted as expected, but when I scoll to the right, historical are all zero. After that the realtime portion is plotting.

What is the cause ? and how can I fix it?

Thanks.

Regards.

Hello EdwardK,

Can you share more about how this is structured?
Which version are you using?

Something like:

if (Historical)
Plot0.Set(10);

else
Plot0.Set(20);

Hello RyanM,

Yes, something like what you wrote.
Actually when I scroll to the right, the zeros are already actually the realtime portion. I have an MA plot that uses two plots, one for Historical and one for Realtime, the zero is showing the color of Realtime MA.

I am using NT6.5.

Thanks.

I'm not sure why you're getting those results. If you can share the indicator or a code snippet I will take a look here.

Hello RyanM,

It is a weird effects. But it is fixed, but probably there are still issues, please read on.
I just use a big else portion, rather than having multiple !Historical
Probably previously some realtime code gets executed when scrolling right. I have no idea why it is so.

When I reload the indicator, I saw it can exhibit two cases:
Say now it is 3PM. last bar on the viewed page 1PM.
1. Prints showing till the last bar on the viewed page. Then first print of my RT bar comes in but showing just past 1PM.

2. Prints showing till the actual last bar of 3PM, then prints RT bars as it is formed.

I believe the correct behaviour should be like case1 but when RT bar is formed it should print correct time.

What could be the cause ? How to fix this ?

Thanks.

I'm not sure how to setup what you're seeing. Using a brief test snippet everything works as expected. Do you have something to share here that I can try out?
