Renko Bars 3in1

The Renko_Bars_3in1 is designed for plotting 3 types of Offline Renko charts.

1. Standard Renko Bar (the reversal bar is twice the size of the bar).
2. Renko Range Bar (the size of all bars is the same).
3. Renko Bars with the ability to adjust the size of the reversal bar.

A chart built using Renko_Bars_3in1 does not redraw the value of Open on the current bar and value of Close on the previous bar, which is important for fully functional operation of indicators and Expert Advisors. The indicator also implements the ability to test indicators and experts in the tester.

In the comments, in post # 8, there is a sound signal indicator for Renko charts.

To run your experts on an offline chart, create a copy of your expert, then insert or replace the OnInit() function with the one below. You can also use the refreshchart_and_tiks (https://www.mql5.com/en/code/19673) script to run experts on offline charts (preferred, does not require the replacement of functions in experts).

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
void OnInit()
 {
     double prev_bid;
     prev_bid=Bid;
     while(!IsStopped())
    {
     RefreshRates();
     if(prev_bid!=Bid) 
     {
      prev_bid=Bid;
      OnTick();
     }
      Sleep(200);
    }
  }
