Probable issue with DLow(1) ?

• 03/31/2020 at 3:45 AM #124013

  Seems to have inconsistent value return with DHigh(1).

  My test code as below…

  lastBarLow=DLow(1) thisBarLow=Dlow(0) return lastBarLow as "lastBarLow", thisBarLow as "thisBarLow"

  1 2 3 4

  lastBarLow=DLow(1) thisBarLow=Dlow(0)   return lastBarLow as "lastBarLow", thisBarLow as "thisBarLow"

  Details:

  Instrument in question: ZNXXXX

  Date of daily bar in question: 19-Feb-2020. DLow(1) returned value 130.766 (please see fig 1).

  Bar low shown by cursor details for bar dated 18-Feb-2020 is 130.875 (please see fig 2).

  Outcomes I am expecting is that both scenario should show value of 130.875.

  This behaviour can be replicated across multiple Futures tickers.

  Suggestion to over come this issue will be much appreciated.

  Thanks in advance.

  Best regards,

  GC

  DLow is a constant that return the Nth daily Low of the market with the official market hours. Have you changed the market hours (with the custom market hours menu?) or hide the weekend data?

  Fig 3 shows  the current settings.

  I did not fiddle with any of the market hours.

  Is there anything that I should adjust?

  Thank you!

  You should change the UTC to use the time zone of that market (UTC-5).

  Do you mean like fig 4?

  I tried with this setting, applied the change, close the application and saved the template on the way out, restarted the app.

  Outcome is the same as fig 1 and fig 2 described in my original post.

  I did a further analysis, outcome as per fig 5.

  Seems like there is a disjoint from bar 27-Feb-2020 onwards, travel back through the history.

  I did not see this disjoint moving forward from bar 28-Feb-2020 to bar 31-Mar-2020.

  Thank you!

  Please try to use the local market time by choosing these options:

  Use different time zones for different markets as specified below:

  Use the local market time zone (UTC+/- x)

  and see what happen!

  Hi,

  Please see fig 6 for time zone settings as per my understanding of your instruction.

  Please see fig 7 for the outcome – disjoint still happened between DLow(1) and Cursor Detail Bar Low, starting from 27-Feb-2020 moving back into the history.

  Thanks!

  Hi,

  Is there going to be any more update on this, or it will be left as it is?

  This behaviour is only replicated on Futures tickers and not any of the FOREX SPOT tickers.

  Thank you.

  The next platform update should resolve the issue. It is already fixed in pre-production version.
