Hello radekj,

Does it happen in backtesting as well?
Please email us the workspace you are using.

in backtesting ?
you saw my snap it is a indicator not a strategy!
how you want to differ between indicator on chart and indicator on backtesting, Sir ?

it happens only if you populate the chart with data via playback

radekj,

I was referring to the "regular" indicator calculation when you apply it to the chart, when you are not using the data playback.

We have now replicated this issue on our end. It will be fixed in the next platform update.
In order to overcome it, you need to disable the "Skip ticks with identical price" option in Data Playback:
