I am working on the indicator (attached) based on some existing ones (eg. TRO_PMSM_Trend). The values are some abstract SMA conditions that are unimportant to the problem with display.
Unfortunately the way it behaves at the moment doesn't make much sense to me. The strange behavior is visible the most when refreshing the chart from the leftmost end. After refresh when you scroll the chart to the right the dots are not anchored to the data (float over chart and remain the same). When scrolling to the left it finally generates new dots (although not anchored to the right bars). Scrolling to the right again it remembers all generated dots until reaching the rightmost point we visited before when it floats again. At no point it anchors the dots correctly
One my our CSR's sent me this for you to try, if this does not work please follow up in our support forum.
I believe he simply needs to call IsValidPlot like we do in ZigZag to ensure the indicator plot is in sync with the last bar processed. This at least fixed his error scenario on my end…
That's interesting because I used it only as a shell for development of other indicators and the conditions used were not really designed to do anything specific in terms of trading. But since you've found use for this here is what it does:
It takes SMAs with increasing periods (at dyadic intervals, ie. powers of 2) and if SMA is > Close adds 1 to score if smaller subtracts 1 from score. So the extremes show that most of the SMAs are above or below price. That's it
