Hello,
I'm having some issue while using in an EA indicators that use ChartSetSymbolPeriod(0,NULL,0) function.
I used this function in some of my indicator because it's the only way to trigger indicator recalculation without waiting a new tick but:
In case of I call multiple of these indicators of different pairs from my EA, I get (rightly) my chart jumping among all symbols and timeframe during initialization.
This occurs because the ChartSetSymbolPeriod(0,NULL,0) command get triggered for each one of my handles.
I think the only way is to avoiding this command to work when indicator is loaded through iCustom command.
Maybe is there a way to recognize that?
Or I need to create a variable like "EA Mode" in my indicator, setting it to TRUE when called with iCustom and then, in my indicator code, do ChartSetSymbolPeriod only if EA Mode=false?
What is best practice in this case?
Thanks
