Countdown Timer Does Not Renew on New Bar in 90 Minute Chart

Postby escamillo » 16 Mar 2012

MultiCharts Version 7.4 Release (Build 4906)

The bar Countdown Timer [time to end of bar] does not renew on a 90 minute bar chart with @ES or ESM2, Zen-Fire data feed. The bar Countdown Timer is visible the first time in a day a workspace is opened and from then to bar end, but once a new bar is created, and from then on and if the workspace is closed and reopened, the bar countdown timer is not visible, but price is visible. It sometimes will show up after having been invisible for some many minutes. This does not happen on shorter time frame charts, such as 5 minute, only on longer time frame charts.

Hello Escamillo,

We will check that behaviour in our environment.

Hello escamilo

I had a similar problem as yours. My problem was resolved after I changed the color of my bars.

I was seeing the countdown only when price was going higher than the preceding bar. Now I use A white back color and my up bar are green and down bars are black

Countdown does not appear because i'm replying during the weekend

Good luck

Martin

The bar Countdown Timer appears if there are 60 minutes or less until the bar close.
That is expected behavior.
