Thanks guys. BTW: I use Build 399. That is the point where I have my issues with. Does IndicatorCounted() correctly fulfil it's purpose to report only what 'needs' to be recalculated or does it do as you said so nicely: mt4 doing it's funky monkey ...

MTF Alerter and ChartDisplay thoughts!

in the logfiles I posted above there is nothing to see of any between Uninit or Reinit. Anyway: personally I think it defeats a bit the purpose of IndicatorCounted(). All the best to you.

IndicatorCounted() Twice all Bars?

Thanks CodeMeister. My point was a bit different though. It's not about if the last 1 or 2 or even 5 bars have to be recalculated but that it seems: That at start of an indicator MT4 IndicatorCounted() does calculate all bars twice. Which seems to ...

MTF Alerter and ChartDisplay thoughts!

Thanks — Thanks gspajon. Interesting thought. I guess it's a bit different than what I had in mind with the MTF on one chart. To be honest I did not play enough with the Custom candles and the idea to use them for simulating a higher TF had ...

Last — For MTF Display adjusted Lines Feel just more natural to me especially if one is let's say on the 2nd or 3rd M1 chart Bar (between M5 start/end point. And also if one uses many MTF indis with different Periods together. -

MTF Alerter and ChartDisplay thoughts!
