Kijunsen MTF very slow to calculate

  Hi all,

  I wanted to play around with the instruction timeframe()

  DEFPARAM CALCULATEONLASTBARS = 200 inpS = 9 inpM = 26 inpL = 52 timeframe(default) // Compute KjS = KijunSen[inpS,inpM,inpL] return KjS

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

  DEFPARAM CALCULATEONLASTBARS = 200   inpS =   9   inpM =  26   inpL = 52     timeframe(default) // Compute KjS  = KijunSen[inpS,inpM,inpL]   return KjS

  This is immediately displayed on screen

   

  DEFPARAM CALCULATEONLASTBARS = 200 inpS = 9 inpM = 26 inpL = 52 timeframe(default) KjS = KijunSen[inpS,inpM,inpL] timeframe(30 minutes, updateonclose) htfKjS = KijunSen[inpS,inpM,inpL] return KjS, htfKjS

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

  DEFPARAM CALCULATEONLASTBARS = 200   inpS = 9 inpM = 26 inpL = 52   timeframe(default)   KjS = KijunSen[inpS,inpM,inpL]   timeframe(30 minutes, updateonclose)   htfKjS  = KijunSen[inpS,inpM,inpL]   return KjS, htfKjS

  Still calcultating after  5 minutes

  It calculates every 5 minutes if your default TF is 5 minutes.

  But what’s inside the 30-minute TF should remain unchanged for 30 minutes.

  gfx – Topic moved to ProBuilder forum as it is an indicator question and not a platform issue.

  Have you read this?

  thks. I did read the post. When I say it is still calculating, I mean … (see attached)

  On a 15 minutes Dax chart.

  Indeed, I do not expect an update of values every 15 minutes for the 30 minutes TF calculation.

  But I would expect the indicator to be displayed on chart immediately for previous bars.

  Have you tried it on a live account ?

  You mean calculating time!?

  Since there was no pic attached, I thought you were talking about the different TF’s timing.

  On my PC it works like a charm, even increasing 200 to 2000 did not make any difference, just 20000 caused some slight delay.

  ok. Thanks for testing. I did close PRT and reboot PC. Much better now.

  Certainly memory issue.

  OK – so what you are actually saying is that just a 15 minute Kijunsen calculates quickly on a DAX 15 minute chart but a 30 minute Kijunsen along with a 15 minute Kijunsen calculates extremely slowly on a DAX 15 minute chart.

  I’ll change your topic title as it is a little confusing and hopefully others can test and see if they have the same issue. Until then I’m off to bed as it is a bit late/early here in Greece!

  You and Roberto fixed the issue by testing and then turning off and on again while I was posting! A fix is a fix. Night night.
