Post From: Flex Renko broken in recent builds

There is no chance we are going to do any comparisons with an older version. We have no confidence in the prior code.

As we said all that matters, is well-defined Flex Renko specifications and the data. This is all. You can count on us, to build the bars according to properly defined specifications and the underlying tick data.

There are still a couple fine details we are working on and we do acknowledge there still could be some possibility of a little problem which is unknown to us at this time. Although nothing you have shown us, has provided any indication of that so far.

For us to analyze this properly we need to know the Tick Size you are using. Let us know.

You are using Flex Renko settings of 25-20-5. Assuming a tick size of .1, this means a box will be 2.5. A price move in the same direction as the prior/current Renko bar of .5 will cause a new completed box. And a reversal of 2.0 will cause a new reversal bar or reversal in place if the current forming bar is not a complete Renko bar.


In one place you label "Down and False Signal". Here is the underlying data for that:

We cannot identify any obvious problem at that point.

At this point you do not have to say anything more than just tell us the tick size because we want to get a couple more details completed.

If you do want to say something more, only focus on one single place and no other. Since if you realize there is not a problem at one location or if there is a problem and we correct it, that should take care of all the others. If not, then we will look at another point.

So you can see, you talk about "crap" and "broken", and we see there is simply no evidence of this whatsoever. So you can understand, why our position is firm and we get annoyed by these claims. There must be a proper basis of explanation which we have not seen.
