FXCodeBase.COM: Forex Chart Indicators and Development

Indicator draws candles each of which consists of constant number of ticks.
Under last candle can show number of ticks as label.



Speed of the indicator drawing depends on amount of data.
For timeframes bigger than m30, this requires big time.
I think what solve this problem.

Thank you.

Alexander,

Any idea why the larger timeframes require so much loading time? I am interested in tick based candlesticks instead of time-based candlesticks. I understand they give you a better view of the market and I'm considering something in the range of 89-233 ticks per bar, maybe more as I currently like to trade 4HR/1HR charts. Can this be done under the current platform?

Thank you.

This problem is solved.
Indicators may use for calculation not only tick data.
At choice timeframe is recommended take into account average volumes for different timeframes.

Thank you very much for this indicator Alexander. I was not aware of the possibility to have tick charts in Marketscope.

I'm not sure whether I understand your question.

This looks great, can it be made like this that candles are heikin ashi ?

Unfortunately, I do not understand your request.

I get this error when I try to use CRB.lua on a m1 chart:
An error occurred during the calculation of the indicator 'Custom Candles Indicator'. The error details: [string "CRB.lua"]:255: [string "CRB.lua"]:132: attempt to index field 'open' (a nil value).

Is there a way to get this indicator to behave like the tick charts in Strategy Trader? Basically, I want each bar to represent X ticks but is also time independent.

For example:


This chart from Strategy trader does not create a new bar for each m1, m5, m30, etc, but only after 70 ticks of data.
