So, this is my sonar tool. This can be wrong though ….

What I don’t understand: Placing your tool on current CHFJPY H1 provides a picture I did not expect (see attachment). Huge ranges for M1 and M5, considerably smaller for M15 and M30. What’s your opinion here? I expected ranges to decrease with decreasing timeframe. Inside your code: I tried to unleash your tool and make it draw the sonar view on past candles. So I made variable candleToCalc an extern and recompiled. I got absolutely no sonar for candleToCalc > 0. So my question is what’s the intended interaction of variables candleToCalc and baseCandleTime. It doesn’t seem to work for candleToCalc > 0.
if (iTime(NULL,PERIOD_H1,0) != newCandleTime) {
newCandleTime = iTime(NULL,PERIOD_H1,0);
FuncDeleteObjects();
}
else {
baseCandleTime = iTime(NULL,PERIOD_H1,candleToCalc);
if ((TimeCurrent() >= baseCandleTime+(PERIOD_H1-lastMinToCalc)*60)&&(TimeCurrent()<baseCandleTime+PERIOD_H1*60)) { // begin calculation
FuncCalculateH1(baseCandleTime,candleToCalc);
FuncCalculateM30(baseCandleTime,candleToCalc);
FuncCalculateM15(baseCandleTime,candleToCalc);
FuncCalculateM5(baseCandleTime,candleToCalc);
FuncCalculateM1(baseCandleTime,candleToCalc);
}
}
Did I misunderstand your basic idea? s.
