Indicator Calaculation on Point and figure chart

Postby Idangy » 28 Nov 2022

so

im using 2 data serious
data 1- 1 min chart
data2- point an figure.
I calc my entry and exit point with data2 and execute orders with time based chart in data 1 as recommended by multicharts support.

every indicator that involves "close" for example moving avg/ linear regration.
works fine on back testing.
but when Live "close" on PnF chart is calculated on every tick and not only at the close of the bar. so an indicator value that is '"supposed" to change once every bar close is keep changing constantly every tick.

the only solution I found is to use close[1]. but that destroys the back test because in back testing it actually take the close of one bar ago.

any suggestions?
