Bug: 6 Hour Chart - Few Bars Back
04 May 2021, 18:56

Hi.

I've noticed that a 6H chart ( not always? ) doesn't load many bars back. My indicators didn't calculate anything; that's how I discovered it. :)

I have to scroll the chart backwards for the indicators to appear automatically.

If anybody has the same issue, please let me know. :)

Best regards,

Johannes Hillestad Baumann

Hi Jobauma,

This is a normal behavior. If you need more bars for your indicator to be calculated, just use LoadMoreHistory() method.

Hi Jobauma,

Assuming that you need at least 1000 bars for your indicator to be calculated correctly, you can do the below in the Initialize() method

        protected override void Initialize()
        {
            // Initialize and create nested indicators
            if (Bars.Count < 1000)
                Bars.LoadMoreHistory();
        }

Best Regards,
