Non-Multiple Tick Charts & Custom Indicator Compatibility

  I want to display 20-tick and 28-tick  candlestic charts of an instrument in a single chart(not in two diff.  windows). Since the TIMEFRAME keyword only supports multiples of the current timeframe, I need a way to manually aggregate non-multiple tick data. Additionally, I should be able to write a custom indicator that can traverse back and forth through these aggregated candles like normal ones.

  If there are any existing codes related to aggregated tick candle series formation, I would appreciate it. The 20-tick and 28-tick values are just examples; I need a general approach to handle any custom tick settings.

  Does ProRealTime support this, and if so, how can it be implemented?

  Thank you!

  A possible approach could be to count the ticks on a tick chart…
  TickCount20=TickCount20+1
  TickCount28=TickCount28+1
  And keep track of the different values for Open, High, Low and Close…
  High20=max(High20,High)
  Low20=min(Low20,Low)
  …
  Store this information in arrays or special variables and use this information to draw synthetic candles…
  DrawCandle(Open20, High20, Low20, Close20)
