Renko One ReversBar Demo

The Renko_One_ReversBar_Demo is a Demo version of the Renko_One_ReversBar indicator. The main feature is that only one Reversal Bar is drawn. As in the indicator Renko_Bars_3in1, you can independently adjust the size of the reversal bar.  Works only on Demo accounts.

A chart created using Renko_One_ReversBar_Demo does not redraw the Open value of the current bar and the Close value of the previous one, which is important for a proper operation of indicators and Expert Advisors. Also the indicator enables testing of indicators and Expert Advisors in the Strategy Tester.

To run your Expert Advisor on an offline chart, you need to create a copy of your Expert Advisor and insert or replace its OnInit() function with the one below. You may also use my refreshchart_and_tiks script, which allows running Expert Advisors on offline charts (this method is preferable, because you do not need to replace functions in your Expert Advisor).

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