You need to disable New Bar at Session Start in Chart >> Chart Settings. We are sure there is not a problem with Flex Renko bars in 1625.


We are not here to make Renko bars work exactly like they did in the prior version. Do not count on that. We are here to properly implement Renko bars according to specifications and according to how Sierra Chart normally creates chart bars. Please understand that. They are properly implemented at this time. That we are certain of.

If there is an issue, the charts you provided do not provide any evidence of that because we cannot use a comparison to what existed previously as a basis. The basis must be an explanation of the underlying tick by tick data, in relation to the documentation and what you then see with the current version for Flex Renko bars.

The previous implementation of Renko bars had at least one issue, and was not a proper implementation. It was done by one of our other programmers who is no longer with us and who did not implement these consistent with other chart bars in Sierra Chart, and the code was not of the best quality to put it kindly. It had to be rewritten.
