IsFirstTickOfBar and drawing issues

[ballboy11]

I create a script that uses if (IsFirstTickOfBar)

It has a fibanacci drawing

after it goes through the IsFirstTickOfBar

I check volume for my algorithm

What I found out is if I try Calculate.OnBarClose it will draw my fibanacci
but it won't be able to calculate my volume and if I use Calculate.OnEachTick;

It will not draw my fibinacci but calculate my volume

Calculate.OnEachTick;



if (IsFirstTickOfBar)
{
Draw fibanacci
}
else
{
calculate volume
}


why will it not draw my fib?
Would try and catch slow the process in order for the fib to draw?

Hello ballboy11,

Thanks for your post.

The Fibonnacci would draw in any mode (OnEachTick or OnBarUpdate or OnEachTick with IsFirstTickOfBar).

Do you see any errors posted in the "log" tab of the control center when you apply the script?

Can you post your code section that shows the complete Draw.F.. statement?

my Fibonnacci has been working all the time but for some reason if I change the parameters to Calculate.OnEachTick and use an if else statement it won't work.
the Print statements show it is going through the algo


There are no errors on log trace files


I did find out if you are coding from each tick from close you have to close n8 totally and reload. it has some residual memory issues
