Here's why I care.
I am setting up a new indicator that will handle displaced moving averages. The crucial part is that most platforms leave blank bars for the amount of a negative displacement. My indicator is filling them in algorithmically. The net result is that the indicator value for a given day depends on how far back in the displacement it is. In other words, it is not constant until it is further back than the displacement. As is:
- If you set the chart back a ways and give F5 all is current and correct
- If you then scroll to the right, all gets updated properly. Fun to watch the last <displacement> days wave around as you scroll.
- If you scroll back (to the left) though, NT just displays the previously calculated data -- which for my indicator is the wrong data.
I know that this need is unusual, but please provide a way for my indicator to know when the last bar painted changes, so that it can keep the chart correct.
(By "correct" I mean that the chart should look the same as it looked when the right-most bar was the last bar. A refresh should not change the chart appearance.)
Thanks,
EV
