Strategy prints 0 values intermittenly

[tkaboris]

HI, Strategy plots 0 values intermittenly from indicator. How to fix it?
-1. For example on 10th minute it prints values but on minute 11th it prints 0 even though values are there
-2. On minute 10th newly level formed but it still prints old one from below
Please see screenshot

Hello tkaboris,

A 0 likely indicates there are bars that do not have a value set.

Note, that plots are synchronized with the primary series only during BarsInProgress 0.

If you want to plot information from a higher time frame, set the plot series current bar value to the previous bars value if there is no value for this bar.

Below is a link to an example.

ok thank you.
i also have another question
in my strategy that uses multi time frame indicator that plots values. So in strategy i set indicator as MTF and it plots values from higher time frame which is fine but it also plots values on current timeframe. So i have both plots fro HTF and current time frame and strategy opens orders on both of them. Is there a way to disable strategy from opening on current time frame plots and only open trades from HTF?
thank you

Hello tkaboris,

You can return if the BarsInProgress is not the index you want to perform on.

However, as shown in my example, plot series values should be assigned to the previous bars value from the primary series.
