XU RSI MA1 indicator is too slow, 2375 ms. rewrite the indicator, please
XU_DailyRangeWithBackground indicator is too slow, 2110 ms. rewrite the indicator, please
I asked Gemini 3 Pro to take a look and it came out with these. At least now it works like a train toilet

1493cTrader -- an alternative to MT5
Just got my login details for cTrader two hours ago and spent an hour figuring out the platform.
I have made three indicators that you can see on the chart.
I reckon it will take about a day or two to complete my latest setup but it appears to be fairly easy to do.
Originally my problem with MT5 was that I was able to back everything up by copying the MQL5 folder and then zipping it up to another ssd drive as well as the cloud -- so if I needed to ever start another instance of MT5 all I had to do was install it then copy over the current backed up MQL5 folder and I was good to go as all my Indicators, experts, scripts and templates would be in the MQL5 folder and this gave me peace of mind.
That peace of mind was broken with the installation of the new Windows 25H2 as about 70% of my existing files would not compile plus other issues with fonts etc making it a headache to create workarounds -- this has led me to looking elsewhere for a stable platform hence cTrader.
I have in the last hour created three indicators as you can see in the enclosed 15 min chart of Gold.
Now with cTrader all my files are on the cloud so all you need to do is login from any computer and you are ready to start trading again -- plus I can cold store all my cTrader files on my ssd drive, usb and other cloud services which gives me that peace of mind once again.
Best,

The top chart is my MT5 chart and the bottom chart is my cTrader chart for comparison -- in a couple of days they should look similar
