I don't have it on my chart. Did you just turn your Empty4 on from it being off?
Hi Bob. My Empty4 platform was on all through. Thanks

Hi Bob. It has been only a few days and I miss you already...

There is a bug in 15.01. Many times (almost always), the arrows in the most recent 20 candles or so are not all painted when you first change pairs. They do appear when you quickly change time frames back and forth. In the case you refer to, I checked to see if the arrow was there on usdchf and it wasn´t, but I changed TF to D1 and back to H4 and it appeared. I am having to do that every time to make sure all the arrows are drawn on the chart, or else you could be missing a crucial arrow.

I really don't like what you are saying alorente :mrgreen:

I'll check coding again, can you confirm this is not hapenning with 14.xx, and, would you say this is hapenning for all signals or only for some of them ?

I have 14.01 feeding the Matrix because it is much, much faster updating than 15.01 and it does not happen. I will change a chart to 14.01 to confirm if that is happening or not. I´ll get back to you after some time.

Sometimes it happens on the last few candles, sometimes and up to 20 candles. I´ll get back to you on the test with 14.02.

Cheers :)

We wouldn´t miss any trades by doing this so it wouldn´t hurt results. I would definitely support this change.
Al, if I followq you reasoning, does that mean that all calculations of HGI should only be with True TMA and that way we won't see appearing other symbols in the past ?

No warnings are showing.

This may be due to the fact that I drag my pairs onto the chart from Market Watch in order to change pairs and keep less charts open. I am not sure of this though.

yes that can be, I think the delay will be the first time caused by the history check the indicator does..

Don't worry about trades you could've, would've, should've but didn't take, look at trades that are there to be taken.
It is true that it is inherent in TMA, but the code can be changed to not allow a new arrow to be painted after the current candle closes. In other words, allow arrows to be painted on the current candle only. This would give us a truer picture when visually analyzing history.

The current bar value is the same whether TMA is true or not, so the arrow painted on the current candle should not be affected by that. Either way, the history arrows already painted in previous candles should not be affected.
