help with maverick script

[glay]

You mentioned you could not use compute on close with efsExternal? I have a problem and think this issue may be linked. I have a script that calls another using efsExternal. Everything was working great. I turned setComputerOnClose off with a // infront of it and now the script goes haywire and jumps to places its not supposed to. Is this to be expected or do I just have something coded wrong? The script im calling has compute on close commented out as well. I decided to use the barstate newbar to calculate the MA's on each bar close instead.


-------------
>Having said this I would not recommend using setComputeOnClose() for various reasons amongst which is the fact that it is not compatible with the efsInternal() and efsExternal() functions and/or when calling external intervals.

Without seeing the code it is not possible to determine whether the behavior you describe is to be expected or is the result of some coding error.

K.. I posted it in my 'Renegade Scipt' thread. Appriecate it..! Theres a lot of messy stuff in there and some from your trail stop examples file. But overall it has worked great until I started messing with it last night.

I noticed that the profit target would tag in real time (tick replay) then not fill until the start of the next bar. I want to take that initial target gain when it touches the target not wait for the next bar to open. So I took out computeonclose and enclosedthe efsExternal in barstatenewbar becuase it has to run every bar not every tick. Then I ran it and my P&L porition comes up in a loop for the first part of the day then if I hit reload on the script it works. Puzzling.
