Hi cTKit,

You can use LastVisibleBarIndex.

I looked at that but documentation suggests this is the index of the last actual candle/bar rather the last visible position.  I will try it out.

That doesn't work, as the documentation suggests this value is the index of the last actual candle that is visible.  I need a position for the edge of the chart window when the bars have been moved left to leave more than the default amount of space.  Ideally something like LastVisibleDateTime.

RE:

Thanks for the workaround, I was hoping for something more flexible i.e. providing a list of brick sizes then parsing that into relevant Renko timeframes.

Just tried the workaround and that approach lets them select any timeframe, so as well as providing a fixed number of time frames, I have to validate they have selected a Renko time frame, which it seems I can only do based on the ToString() result.  A bit on the ugly side.

On the other hand I really like that you have implemented Renko and Range bars as time frames rather than some of the convoluted ways people have implemented it.  However having done so it would be really nice if we can use them with GetBars methods like other time frames.

RE:

I have investigated using the ChartObjectHoverChanged event to write some text on the indicator when the mouse is over an output plot but no success.  The event never fires for lines plotted for outputs.  It seems these lines are not chart objects because they don't show up when I iterate through the list of objects on the chart or indicator area.  Still looking for a work around.

That makes sense, thanks for letting me know.

Hopefully they will update soon.

Not sure we have enough information to help you.

What currency pairs is this happening on, different ones, the same ones?

The code is pretty straight forward and I use something similar a lot without this problem.

I find that happens regularly on Saturday morning.  I suspect they doe some kind of maintenance on Saturday mornings.  It is usually ready to go by the afternoon.

RE: RE: RE:

Agreed, something is causing an error as they process the .algo file uploaded.

I heard back from them again yesterday and it seems they have accepted there might be something wrong their end and have passed the problem along to a developer.

RE:

I have had the same problem for some time.

I used the feedback feature in cAlgo to try to get some help, and they are talking to me, but not getting anywhere.

So far they suggested

1. Clearing browser history
2. Using Icognito Mode

I tried both and got the same result, using a completetly vanilla indicator created in cAlgo, bult and uploaded with no changes.

I am a professional developer and know what I would be looking at to fix it.  I have suggested they check their web logs to see if they can identify the underlying error and let me know what it is.  Awaiting their response.

Hi Cedric

OnBar is called when a new bar opens for the MarketSeries for the chart your bot is attached to.  To get data for other time frames you would need to use one of the MarketData.GetSeries() methods in your OnStart method to create a new MarketSeries for each additional time frame you want to access.  If all you want is the last value then things are relatively simple, but if you need anything else you are going to have to calculate the correct index to reference the additional timeframe data.

The following example should get you started with access the last value.

private MarketSeries m1Series;
private MarketSeries m15Series;

protected override void OnStart()
{
    m1Series = MarketData.GetSeries(TimeFrame.Minute);
    m15Series = MarketData.GetSeries(TimeFrame.Minute15);
}

protected override void OnBar()
{
    var m1Value = m1Series.Close.LastValue;
    var m15Value = m15Series.Close.LastValue;
   
    // do something with values
}

Tried again, even tried uploading an indicator with an empty code file and it failed.  SpotWare are providing no support so we have published our free indicators including the latest Currency Strength Indicator to ctkit.uk

More to come soon and updates to existing ones will be published on our web site only.

Thanks but I am not interested in using a third party tool to do something I can and should be able to do in the app.  I run a software development team and if one of my developers pushed code that did this they would be in serious trouble, like wise the members of the QA team that didn't find and report it.  In my opinion this is a bug, and I find it laughable that after reporting it to SpotWare I am told I have to post a request to fix it here as a "Suggestion" and let people vote on it.

As I mentioned, I am aware of how to move the window with key strokes so it is a minor irritation, but I am certain there will be people less aware of how to do things without a mouse that will find it much more difficult to use.

Can someone at spotware help me understand what is wrong and why it won't upload please

I solved the problem.  It was because I run Windows in Parallels on a Mac.  I run it in "Like a Mac" mode so I get the best of both worlds but by default this causes the user profile to be mapped to Mac user folders via a local network share. cAlgo is unable to detect changes to folders and files under this configuration.  I changed some setting to disable this feature and bingo when I create a new item it appears in the expected place.  This also affects integration with Visual Studio, which is working fine too.

I can confirm the problem is the way Parrallels is running Windows.  I had the same issue and after finding this thread I changed my Parallels settings so my VM had a local Documents folder on the Virtual Hard Drive and all worked fine.

To anyone else who has this issue you don't have to give up Confluence altogether.  It is not necessary to swithc completely to running the VM "Like a PC".  Follow the link in the previous post from Spotware and just change the sharing settings to disable "Share Mac user folders with Windows".  You will be signed out and back in to Windows.  Once you are you may have to make a final change as Documents may still be mapped to the Mac UNC path.  Using Windows Explorer locate the Documents library and right click.  On the Location tab you will find a button that allows you to change the location and move existing files.

Thanks for trying to help, I know where it should be, but it is not there.  I have a very high resolution monitor so there is no scrollbar on my indicator list.

To be clear, nothing new gets added to the list, and no editor window is opened as expected with the new Indicator template.

I have to restart cAlgo before the new template is listed and then I can rename it.  When it first happened I clicked on the button several times because nothing happened, after restarting cAlgo there were several new items in the list.

I am a very experienced C# developer and have a number of tools and .NET versions on my PC so could be some kind of conflict.
