Dear Engineering team,

I have a little issue with Renko Chart. The bars look fine for the first couple days. But if I go back further, the historical bars do not load properly. They are out of place and there are many gaps among them. I try deleting and reloading function. It doesn't resolve the issue. I have attached a few examples for your review. Please help.

Thank you,

You need to set the chart to be a continuous futures contract chart:

Thank you so much. I also would like to know if SC has a study which displays the numbers of up points on top of the last Renko high or the numbers of down points below of the last Renko low. I could count the Renko and know the number, but this feature would come really handy because I could see the number by just glancing at my chart. I have attached a photo from thinkorswim chart for your visualization. Again, thank you for your help.

Refer to this page to see if you can put together a calculation for this:
Using the Basic Arithmetic Studies

At the bottom of the page it explains how to display the result as a value on the chart.

Also have a look at the Zig Zag study on the Renko bars which has the ability to display the number of bars that compose a particular line segment. Refer to the information here:
