Can anyone have idea why this is happened to me? I am new to MQL and created an indicator to show arrow at specific combination of the candles. It appears correct for the past history but for the upcoming candles it requires refresh window. What could be the reason?
- Arrow appears after refreshing window everytime
- Indicator not updating arrows
- What is going on??
Show us the code then. Please use SRC when posting the codes.

jrbhatt: It appears correct for the past history but for the upcoming candles it requires refresh window.
You remember ArrowUp/Down from previous bars but you aren't remembering the other values because they are not global or static.double PriceLow1, RSILow1; // PriceLow1 is a random value here : while(i>=0){ : if (Low[i+2]<Low[i+3] && Low[i+2]<Low[i+1] && RSIBuffer[i+2]<30){ // If this isn't true this bar. PriceLow1=Low[i+2]; RSILow1=RSIBuffer[i+2]; TimeLow1=Time[i+2]; ArrowUp=true; } if (Low[i+2]<Low[i+3] && Low[i+2]<Low[i+1] && Time[i+2]>TimeLow1 && Low[i+2]<PriceLow1 && RSIBuffer[i+2]>RSILow1) // then this is bogus.First time and after refresh you do all bars, so the local variables will have valid values (from previous bars.) After that i == 0 mostly, there is only one pass and local variables have random values.
