Currently NT offers either the option to update an indicator at every tick or when the bar closes. The first choice is CPU intensive while the second choice can have too much of a lag.
It would be nice to have an option which updates at a smaller period than the main bar. For example, if we have a 5 min chart, the indicator updates every minute.
I am simulating that behavior right now by adding another 1 Min bar-series. However this is neither the most elegant nor the most efficient solution. Alternatively we can use the Percentage Complete property to update the indicator at a faster rate. But this still requires a call to the indicator on every tick.
Native support to a fixed number of updates while the bar is being constructed will be great.
