ZigZag Volume Calculation

Hey Sierra. I am looking at ZigZag's volume calculation on a volume per bar chart.

I am using zigzag in leu of a reversal tick chart.

Unfortunately, the zigzag volume calculation / volume array, is continuously stopped (BEFORE the reversal tick is reached). This stopping of the summation of the volume array happens when the price moves down, and then is continued again when the price returns to the trend.

Right now, I am using a moving average to track the cumulative volume array.
Because the summation of the array stops early, the moving average becomes staggered, and does not fix itself until I refresh / recalculate the chart.

I really don't want to recalculate ever time I look at the chart, is there a way to auto recalculate (maybe auto-recalculate the ma?), or to stop the Zigag from ending the summation array before the reversal tick is reached?

It's a bit forceful, but there is a study called "Chart Recalculation - Periodic" that will force the studies to update. Refer to the following:
