I am testing a strategy based on Renko bars, by setting
where Renko1 is from SpecialBars.c. First I ran it with
and
and everything went as expected. For example, in the log I have:
[1: Sun 17-12-17 23:02] (19000.00)
[2: Mon 17-12-18 00:33] (18500.00)
[3: Mon 17-12-18 01:00] (18000.00)
...
and I can see in ZHistoryEditor that at the end of bar 2, the close price dips below 18500 for the first time at 00:33.
Then I wanted daily granularity rather than 1-min. The manual says BarPeriod only affects the start time and the number of allocated bars, but I tried
anyhow. The results made no sense to me. From the log:
[1: Tue 17-12-19 09:00] (18500.00)
[2: Wed 17-12-20 02:45] (18000.00)
[3: Wed 17-12-20 18:26] (17500.00)
[4: Thu 17-12-21 10:06] (17000.00)
However, at 17-12-20 02:45 the price is nowhere near 18000 (same for all of the entries). Is this some bug, or else why is the log showing these close times for the Renko bars?
