accurate indicator, need modify.

this indicator repaint, i edit i=1 but not showing line.

[William Roeder]

it is accurate because it repaints. It repaints because you are counting up. Always count down.

What WHRoeder ment is that the bar iteration should be from past to present, and not the other way around. If not, your accurate indicator "sees the future". Should be like this:

int start()
{
   // Start, limit, etc..
   int start = 0;
   int limit;
   int counted_bars = IndicatorCounted();
   
   // nothing else to do?
   if(counted_bars < 0) 
       return(-1);

   // do not check repeated bars
   limit = Bars - 1 - counted_bars;
   
   // Iteration from past to present
   for(int pos = limit; pos >= start; pos--)
   {  
       // Blabla
   }
}
