No. There's a magic function that will shuffle all the attempts:
This mechanism is built into the language\terminal itself. Although the idea is interesting...
Sadly... We'll keep thinking.
What do you mean it's over? :-)
It means that the indicator started returning zeros instead of digits.
Dennis Kirichenko, Karputov Vladimir - thanks for the information about the functions!
Only I don't understand, what is the difference between TERMINAL_MEMORY_TOTAL and TERMINAL_MEMORY_AVAILABLE?
TERMINAL_MEMORY_TOTAL is the maximum available memory, and TERMINAL_MEMORY_AVAILABLE is the remaining memory, right?
Just don't understand the difference between TERMINAL_MEMORY_TOTAL and TERMINAL_MEMORY_AVAILABLE?
TERMINAL_MEMORY_TOTAL is the maximum available memory, and TERMINAL_MEMORY_AVAILABLE is the remaining memory, right?
I tried it manually, changing the template with a lot of indicators to almost empty - the effect is there (but the cache remains - I think it's not critical). But how to make opening and closing through a template script - I do not know. I understood that the doubt is that as long as the script is running, the memory will not be cleared... Andrei, please help with the experiment.
What's not working out? What's to help? Where's the try? Where is the code?
ChartOpen to open chart. Then on it ChartApplyTemplate with the name of a pre-designed template (it will be the same all the time, there is no need to write it down). Then ChartClose.
Measure memory through the proposed function. Or you can download my free iMemory indicator, it was specially created for this purpose.
In four we will add a more aggressive automatic deletion of such indicator copies.
Hooray! How nice when those in power hear you!
And "such indicator copies" are those caused by the former when there is a shortage of memory for the latter, or something else?

What kind of programmer am I? Here I started writing the script - the first command to open the chart gives no result. What's wrong?

So you meant "do it for me", not "help me"? That's what you say.
Not so - almost everything: ChartOpen function must be called from the body of the OnStart function. The first parameter - string, must be in quotes. You do not need to specify the data type (string and ENUM_TIMEFRAMES) when calling.)
Start by searching examples of function usage or documentation (there are examples there too).

That's the thing, there is no proper example in the help.
According to your comments, I have redid it:

It takes too long to explain what's wrong :)
That's the thing: there's no proper example in the helpdesk.
In addition to the helpline, there is a codobase and a forum. Search works.
ps: ugh, the link insertion in the message broke =(
