When a FED announcement comes out, a bunch of volume tick candles can come in all at once. If I have a custom study running, candles can come in faster then the program can calculate on them. What happens during this time? Does the study go into a 'recalculation' type of mode? Is ACSIL already equipped to deal with these situations, or do I need special code? |

Not sure what is meant by this: volume tick candles
However it may not be relevant. To answer your question, refer to this page: Working with ACSIL Arrays and Understanding Looping It is a good idea to read through the entire page. Basically your study starts its calculations at the last calculated bar index and goes all the way to the end of the array which would include any new bars.

I have read that page multiple times. What I am asking happens only during very volatile moments while using a volume per bar candles. In the attached image, each of the candles in the stair step section going up has the same closing time. How can a study compute these candles in time? What happens internally? Are candles skipped? What about trading decisions? Thanks |

We have no further information other than what is documented on that page. Some of these questions you just have to answer yourself: What about trading decisions? And you can also answer all of your questions just simply by doing step-by-step debugging or adding log messages and observing what the study function is doing. No so long as you have implemented the study function properly: Are candles skipped?
