//+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| EA VERSION
//| RenkoLiveChart_v3.2.mq4
//| Inspired from Renko script by "e4" (renko_live_scr.mq4)
//| Copyleft 2009 LastViking
//|
//| Aug 12 2009 (LV):
//| - Wanted volume in my Renko chart so I wrote my own script
//|
//| Aug 20-21 2009 (LV) (v1.1 - v1.3):
//| - First attempt at live Renko brick formation (bugs O bugs...)
//| - Fixed problem with strange symbol names at some 5 digit
//| brokers (credit to Tigertron)
//|
//| Aug 24 2009 (LV) (v1.4):
//| - Handle High / Low in history in a reasonable way (prev.
//| used Close)
//|
//| Aug 26 2009 (Lou G) (v1.5/v1.6):
//| - Finaly fixing the "late appearance" (live Renko brick
//| formation) bug
//|
//| Aug 31 2009 (LV) (v2.0):
//| - Not a script anylonger, but run as indicator
//| - Naroved down the MT4 bug that used to cause the "late appearance bug"
//| a little closer (has to do with High / Low gaps)
//| - Removed the while ... sleep() loop. Renko chart is now tick
//| driven: -MUSH nicer to system resources this way
//|
//| Sep 03 2009 (LV) (v2.1):
//| - Fixed so that Time[] holds the open time of the renko
//| bricks (prev. used time of close)
//|
//| Sep 16 2009 (Lou G) (v3.0):
//| - Optional wicks added
//| - Conversion back to EA
//| - Auto adjust for 5 and 6 dec brokers added
//| enter RenkoBoxSize as "actual" size e.g. "10" for 10 pips
//| - Compensation for "zero compare" problem added
//|
//| Okt 05 2009 (LV) (v3.1):
//| - Fixed a bug related to BoxOffset
//| - Auto adjust for 3 and 4 dec JPY pairs
//| - Removed init() function
//| - Changed back to old style Renko brick formation
//|
//| Okt 13 2009 (LV) (v3.2):
//| - Added "EmulateOnLineChart" option (credit to Skipperxit/Mimmo)
//|
