Need to hit F5 to draw arrows when chart tab is not selected

[WalterSkinner]

They show up in real time if the tab is active but if I go to another chart tab that has the indicator running I need to refresh ninjascript in order for the arrows to plot.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Here's the code:

 protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
if(CrossBelow(RSI(5,1), 80, 1))
{
Draw.ArrowDown(this, "tag2"+CurrentBar, true, 0, High[0] + TickSize, Brushes.Red);
}
if(CrossAbove(RSI(5,1), 20, 1))
{
Draw.ArrowUp(this, "tag1"+CurrentBar, true, 0, Low[0] - TickSize, Brushes.Green);
}
}

Hi Walter, thanks for posting. Does the indicator run OnEachTick or OnBarClose? I would need you to post a test script that re-creates this because the code you posted looks like it will work in Historical mode.

Best regards,

Hi Chris.

It's set to OnBarClose.

Could it be due to the fact that IsSuspendedWhileInactive was set to true?

It's set to false in the attached script, I'm currently waiting to see if this does the trick.

Edit:
It looks like it was due to that setting after all.
