Multi Time Frame loss of DataSeries data…Jagged Line

[JulieC]

Greetings;
Trading on NT8, I have moments when data is lost in my DataSeries
when used with a MultiTimeFrame indicator.
Without the MTF the line is perfect (please see 2 pics attached).
Even after reading for hours (Forum and Help), I am not sure what
term to apply to this problem.
Suggestions? My code below:

}
else if (State == State.Configure)
{
AddDataSeries(BarsPeriodType.Tick, 100);
AddDataSeries(BarsPeriodType.Minute, 5);
yTurboBase3 = new Series<double>(this);
yTurboBase2 = new Series<double>(this);
yTurboBase1 = new Series<double>(this);
}
protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
if(BarsInProgress==1) {
if(IsFirstTickOfBar) {
yTurboBase3[0]= (EMA(Closes[1],60)[0]);
yTurboBase2[0]= (EMA(yTurboBase3,20)[0]);
yTurboBase1[0]= (EMA(yTurboBase2,5)[0]);
}
}
if(BarsInProgress==0) {
if(IsFirstTickOfBar) {
TurboLine[0]= yTurboBase1[0];
}
}

Hello.

Thanks for the note.

A jagged plot would be expected because tick and minute data do not line up with each other and there could be multiple tick bars within a minute. Also, if you plot between 1 and 5-minute intervals the plot will be jagged because there is no change for 4 minutes.

Please let us know if you have any questions.
