ComputeonClose Problem

[angatgg]

I have applied setComputeOnClose(true) to the _BlauDS_Stoch studies (found in the Library Function folder) and am not getting correct data on the chart.
Additionally, the chart does not update after each bar close , and needs constant refreshing to show correct bar data.

The chart on the right is with compute on close applied and the one on the left is without. My charts are set to compute tick by tick.

Does setting the compute on bar close not work with these indicators??

I also tried using getValue(-1) in the return to accomplish the same thing, but am not sure if the correct data is being shown by this method.
As you can see from the Data Box, a RSI indicator shows correct data, when one is set to computeonclose, and the other not. The RSI plots correctly also without having to refresh charts.

Any help on this matter would be appreciated.Thanks.

Need to see script

I'll need to see your script to help you out with this problem.

Are you doing the computation on the basis of the close() value each interval, or something else?

This issue is thinly traded, so I wonder if that's got something to do with the interval data you're receiving?

I can tell more when I see the script.

_BlauDS_Stoch studies

Hi Fred,

Here is the code from the FunctionLibrary files. When setComputeonClose is inserted in premain, I have to refresh charts to get them to display correct data.

Is it because the way the code is written , that it will not compute the values on the closing bar?

Thanks for taking a look!
