Post From: CUSTOM SYMBOLS with 2 symbols or more LONG INDICATOR CALCULATIONS

Hi,

Have been using the custom symbols a lot and i like how it works;however,it appears
that sierra chart us using data from both symbols to calculate the math on the indicators which is causing a long
delay sometimes a quarter of a second just to produce the math.

Would it be more efficient for the math on custom symbols to be done on the actual custom symbol numbers versus
doing double the math. should the order of operations be SYMBOL a-SYMBOL B= raw numnber then sierra uses
this raw number to calculate the indicators? right now it appears sierra chart is doing double the work which makes me
wonder how the custom symbol is actually being calcualted in the first place.

IF i do a custom symbols with 3 legs it is even longer.
thank you in advance
