Moving AveragesEATA repainter to non-repaint

1 by sagacious
Greetings to all 👋

I am forced to seek help from the gurus and guardians of this forum. I hope for your help, as my attempts to solve the problem (with zero programming skills) have been crowned with failure.

:idea: I found an interesting indicator on the Internet, but two functions are terribly lacking.

The first thing I tried to do was add an alert for the crossing of two lines. I would really like to be able to see the alert when a signal occurs.
The second main point is the timeframe selection function. I know that one of the professionals here has already done this and knows how. It would be great to be able to select TF in the indicator settings.

This is perhaps all, this is the most important and the main thing that I need, I hope my prayers will be heard by respected experts.

(I also ran into a bug that a false crossing signal appears, which disappears after updating the TF, is it really possible to correct / optimize?)

Thanks, best wishes! <3

Re: EATA repainter to non-repaint

Greetings,

long time reader, first time poster.

So i've been trying for some time to make the EATA indicator not to repaint, without success. I decided to ask about in the forum if some fellow coder can help identify what needs changing to oder to work. Im not sure i completely understand why the buffers get a different value each time the indicator is refreshed.

Running the EATA in the tester is intriguing, having a EA that enters a position based on EATA isnt *bad*, but as the lines are totaly different from where the EA entered a position, its hard to say.

Ill just post a quarter of the code here if maybe its indentifiable whats causing the repaint. If not, then theres the indicator in the attachment.

Code: Select all

int start() {
   
   int counted_bars = IndicatorCounted();

   if(counted_bars < 0){ 
      return(-1);
   }

   if(counted_bars > 0){
      counted_bars--;
   }
   
   int limit = MathMin(Bars - counted_bars, Bars - 1);
   
   for(int i = limit - 1 ; i >= 0; i--) {
   
      ttMaxBuffer[i] = EMPTY_VALUE;
      ttMinBuffer[i] = EMPTY_VALUE;
      CCIMapBuffer[i] = EMPTY_VALUE;
      RSIMapBuffer[i] = EMPTY_VALUE;
      arrowBuyBuffer[i] = EMPTY_VALUE;
      arrowSellBuffer[i] = EMPTY_VALUE;

      a = (iCCI(NULL, 0, CCI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i) - iRSI(NULL, 0, RSI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i));
      a1 = (iCCI(NULL, 0, CCI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i-1) - iRSI(NULL, 0, RSI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i+1));
      a2 = (iCCI(NULL, 0, CCI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i-2) - iRSI(NULL, 0, RSI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i+2));
      a3 = (iCCI(NULL, 0, CCI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i-3) - iRSI(NULL, 0, RSI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i+3));
      a4 = (iCCI(NULL, 0, CCI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i-4) - iRSI(NULL, 0, RSI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i+4));
      a5 = (iCCI(NULL, 0, CCI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i-5) - iRSI(NULL, 0, RSI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i+5));
      a6 = (iCCI(NULL, 0, CCI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i-6) - iRSI(NULL, 0, RSI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i+6));
      a7 = (iCCI(NULL, 0, CCI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i-7) - iRSI(NULL, 0, RSI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i+7));
      a8 = (iCCI(NULL, 0, CCI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i-8) - iRSI(NULL, 0, RSI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i+8));
      
      b = (iRSI(NULL, 0, RSI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i) - iCCI(NULL, 0, CCI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i));
      b1 = (iRSI(NULL, 0, RSI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i-1) - iCCI(NULL, 0, CCI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i+1));
      b2 = (iRSI(NULL, 0, RSI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i-2) - iCCI(NULL, 0, CCI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i+2));
      b3 = (iRSI(NULL, 0, RSI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i-3) - iCCI(NULL, 0, CCI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i+3));
      b4 = (iRSI(NULL, 0, RSI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i-4) - iCCI(NULL, 0, CCI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i+4));
      b5 = (iRSI(NULL, 0, RSI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i-5) - iCCI(NULL, 0, CCI_per, PRICE_TYPICAL, i+5));
