Indicator not drawing to current bar

[cre8able]

I have an indicator that I'm using to identify swing highs. But it doesn't draw to the last bar. I'm drawing to Time[0] which I thought would draw the line all the way to the current bar that is forming. What did I miss?

            if (Count - 2 == CurrentBar)
            {
            for (int x = 0; x < swingHighs.Count; x++)
                {
                    Draw.Line(this, "swingHigh" + swingHighs[x].swingHLStartTime, false,
                        swingHighs[x].swingHLStartTime,
                        swingHighs[x].swingHLValue,
                        Time[0],
                        swingHighs[x].swingHLValue,
                        swingHighs[x].EQH == 1 ?  Brushes.Green : Brushes.Lime,
                        swingHighs[x].EQH == 1  ? DashStyleHelper.Dash : DashStyleHelper.Solid,
                        swingHighs[x].EQH, true);
                }
&#8203;

Oops. I realized I'm using OnBarClose so it wont draw until the bar closes. I don't want to change that so how do I draw the end of the line 1 bar over when using DateTime for the 2 ends of the line?

When I'm using bar indexing, I would just make it -1.

How do I shift the end 1 bar to the right?

Hello cre8able,

Thanks for your post.

When using Calculate.OnBarClose the OnBarUpdate() logic in your script will only process at the close of each bar. This means all calculations and actions will occur when the bar closes.

For an indicator to calculate logic intrabar and draw objects on the currently building bar instead of the bar that closed the script should be set to Calculate.OnPriceChange or Calculate.OnEachTick.

Passing in a negative value for the barsAgo is not supported and would have to be used at your own discretion.

If you want only some of your logic to occur OnBarClose and other logic to occur OnPriceChange/OnEachTick then you could use IsFirstTickOfBar in the script to separate that logic.

Please see the reference sample below which demonstrates a technique used for those who need to separate their logic to calculate some values on each tick and others only on the close of a bar. You will set your host script to Calculate.OnEachTick and use if(IsFirstTickOfBar) and place all code that needs to calculate once every bar within that condition check. Then place all code that you want to calculate OnEachTick outside of the IsFirstTickOfBar condition check.
