DEFPARAM + ONCE issue with Range

  Try this on DAX, 1-hour chart (add this indicator to the price chart, not below it):

  Pips = 60 * pipsize //Show only candles > 60 pips Offset = 10 * pipsize //Offset above high/below low where we want an arrow to be displayed IF Range >= Pips THEN IF close > open THEN DRAWARROWUP(barindex,low - (offset / pipsize)) COLOURED(50,205,50) ELSE DRAWARROWDOWN(barindex,high + (offset / pipsize)) COLOURED(255,0,0) ENDIF ENDIF RETURN

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

  Pips   = 60 * pipsize         //Show only candles > 60 pips Offset = 10 * pipsize         //Offset above high/below low where we want an arrow to be displayed IF Range >= Pips THEN    IF close > open THEN       DRAWARROWUP(barindex,low - (offset / pipsize)) COLOURED(50,205,50)    ELSE       DRAWARROWDOWN(barindex,high + (offset / pipsize)) COLOURED(255,0,0)    ENDIF ENDIF RETURN

  now try this slightly modified version:

  DEFPARAM CalculateOnLastBars = 500 ONCE Pips = 60 * pipsize //Show only candles > 60 pips ONCE Offset = 10 * pipsize //Offset above high/below low where we want an arrow to be displayed IF Range >= Pips THEN IF close > open THEN DRAWARROWUP(barindex,low - (offset / pipsize)) COLOURED(50,205,50) ELSE DRAWARROWDOWN(barindex,high + (offset / pipsize)) COLOURED(255,0,0) ENDIF ENDIF RETURN

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

  DEFPARAM CalculateOnLastBars = 500 ONCE Pips   = 60 * pipsize    //Show only candles > 60 pips ONCE Offset = 10 * pipsize    //Offset above high/below low where we want an arrow to be displayed IF Range >= Pips THEN    IF close > open THEN       DRAWARROWUP(barindex,low - (offset / pipsize)) COLOURED(50,205,50)    ELSE       DRAWARROWDOWN(barindex,high + (offset / pipsize)) COLOURED(255,0,0)    ENDIF ENDIF RETURN

  The latter one will show incorrect arrows due to a known bug with Range + DEFPARAM + ONCE.

  After many months this bug is still there, will the new version address it?

  Thank you.
