OnBar and OnBarClosed issues when using Renko chart
17 Jun 2024, 05:12

It appears that these methods are not executing consistently. Screenshot and code below.

 

 protected override void OnBar()
 {

     var txt = Chart.DrawText(Bars.Count().ToString(), Bars.Count().ToString(), Bars.Last(1).OpenTime, Bars.Last(1).Low - Symbol.PipValue, Color.Black);
     txt.HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Center;
     txt.VerticalAlignment = VerticalAlignment.Center;
     Print($"{Bars.Last(1).OpenTime} ===== {Bars.Count}");

  
 }

Hi there,

This is by design. If the price jumps more that one bar, then the method is only executed once for the last bar.

Best regards,

Any suggestions on how to keep the drawing behavior consistent would be greatly appreciated.

On each bar you should keep track how many bars have been added using Bars.Count. If more than one bars have been added then you would need to add the numbers using a loop for all the new bars added
