Hey guys.
There has to be a simple explanation for this but for the life of me I can't find it.
Is there a way for the SMA to include the current daily bar?
Same issue with bollinger bands.
Mine cuts off at the prior day.
Thanks.

Is this what you are looking for? In the indicators menu, you can setup your SMA to calculate on each tick. This will display your moving average during the current bar.

Change indicator settings from "Calculate" = "On bar close" to "Calculate" = "On price change".

Use "On price change" for price based indicators like the SMA or Bollinger Bands. Use "On each tick" for all indicators which are derived from volume data.
