Last Historical Bar?

[ninZa]

Can you clarify the meaning of "scroll point"? A screenshot with your notes on it will easily explain.

HI Guys,

I would like to do exactly what Freen has requested here.

Bertrand, I tried your solution.... am I missing something here because your suggested code still only allows the indicator to load if it is the last bar on the chart. "Bars.Count" returns the same value as "Count" for me. So therfore your code will skip every bar until we are at Count - 2 which is when all historical bars are already loaded. What if we want the indicators code to only initiate once the CurrrentBar has arrived at the current scroll point of the chart?

Hi Frederik, try doing your calcs then in a condition like this :

if (Bars.Count - 2 == CurrentBar && Historical)
{
do calcs on last historical bar
}

Any suggestion on how to trigger OnBarUpdate on last historical bar only?

Bars.LastHistorical or Bars.Loaded properties would be handy properties for this purpose.

The indicator I´m working with uses Infinite lookback and performs all historical calculations (0 -> CurrentBar looping) on each bar - hence last historical/current bar update only would make loading faster.

Kindly, Fredrik
