i'm not sure i cottrecly understand the calling mechanism to study function i understood that ty default the study function is called as Chart Update Interval expires (rather than when new market or order data is available for the symbol) from reading the documentation's text - i understand that this is not the default behavior and for that to take place i need to set sc.UpdateAlways = 1 *** what is the bhaviour when when sc.UpdateAlways = 0 ? study function is called when new market or order data is available for the symbol ? *** p.s. is there an option to cause calling the study function only when the current candle/bar is closed ? |

How you come to the reverse conclusions you have come to, we do not know. We have never had anyone come to this conclusion previously. Refer to this section here: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/ACS_ArraysAndLooping.html#WhenFunctionCalled There is a way to prevent calculations on chart bars which are not closed.

clear now ... tnx wanted to ask whether you can support a mechanism where the study function will set flags on events to call the study function so rather calling it as interval elapses for a set of events (or if UpdateAlwyas is asserted) and then the study function needs to test whether the bar is closed - the function will set the events upon which the platform should call teh study function. that will save the need (and involved performance pnealty) to check whether bar is closed will you consider this attitude ? |
