Weird gapping/jumping of moving averages

Post by boycoffee »

Hi,

Issue with MAs where they just jump and become inaccurate. Switching timeframes when switching back usually fixes it back to normal. Really affects the accuracy of the MAs which can then in turn influence my decision making.

Thanks

Recreated the issue in another back-test file but the issue disappears when you close the back test and and reload it so I dont know how useful it will be. You can try recreate it using the "Go to - Next day open time" or by skipping through a large amount of data while watching a lower time frame (eg skipping forward by 1 day at a time but watch the 5min)

Thanks a lot for your backtest file, it allowed to us to identify and fix this issue very quickly.
The next release will contain the fix for this bug.
For information, this bug was occuring when the user jumps in time (with GoTo function or big steps use for example) and the period of time landed in a new section of screen display (NM organizes screen display in sections to optimize data display). That's why refreshing the timeframe (recalculates the data + indicators) fixed the issue.
