How to handle forward-looking Signals?

Hi,

Is there a simple way to handle forward-looking Signals - something like the :100 appended to the "Compute/Display Last" field for forward-looking Custom Indicators?

If not, what's the recommended approach? I'm happy with them either being recalculated once the next pivot is complete, or only drawing the Signal once the pivot is complete. Are there any examples out there?

Would wrapping forward-looking indicator in a MPD (and using the "Compute/Display Last" field in the MPD) work?

Thanks,

-Chris

Handling Look Ahead Indicators

Yes, for custom indicators or signals which involve look ahead indicators (most commonly Zig Zag and Zig Zag Oscillator), you can append a color and a number to the "Evaluate/Display" (or Compujte/Display) field....as seen above.

ALL:100

or you may even enter ...

ALL:ALL

Ah, thanks Chad. I've moved

Ah, thanks Chad. I've moved over to using PaintIndictor for Signal markers and that doesn't have the Evaluate/Display field. I can go back to SignalMarker for this one.

Thanks,
