Indicators Optimized for Offline Charts - page 7

New comment
 
thefxpros:
Hi,

please, i beg some good hearted programmer...it is possible to have these two indicators optimized for offline charts? I can't work anymore with metatrader in this way...it freezes all the time, the price moves and metatrader not...

bbands_stop_v3_mtf.mq4

custom_candles.mq4

thanks in advance to pious soul that will help me...:)

thfxpros

did you check this version of bb stops : https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/173574/page538

Yes, but is it different from the mine, my bbands stop has one more option. However, i guess and hope that i don't need the offline chart optimization anymore for this indicator since i saw that with restoring the default indicators position, now the platform with indicators attached is much much more speedy...

thank you anyway for the advice

The second one is the one written by metaquotes?

No wonder that new metatrader are not working as it should. That is one clumsy peace of code coded by someone that is confusing metatrader 4 and metatrader 5. They are continuing with their long term practice of having anything but clean and efficient code

That heiken ashi is a poor example, but I really hope that somebody there is going to decide to start working as a company like that should work

I don't know

What they are doing lately does not help in rebuilding confidence in metatader at all
