{quote} is this really a non repainting version?
As you can see it's not.
I didn't name it.
Playing devil's advocate I'd say that it's a greatly reduced repaint. Trying to get a repainting indicator to not repaint, makes it very different to what it orignally was supposed to be for, in use and looks.

Hi Tankk,

Regarding my 'CustomCandles - any tmf v3 BT', what you called "your code" was not really mine at all, since all I did was take what had been written (with inefficient button code added) and I made only the button code better. I would never have created "init2()" function because it was only called by "init()" and nowhere else. I saw no benefit to it, but I wasn't diving into this or other non-button-code details at all.

In your OnChartEvent(), you added:
if (id!=CHARTEVENT_OBJECT_CLICK || sparam!=PrefBT) return;

That's perfect to eliminate further processing of all other irrelevant event id's. It's obvious, but I don't know why I didn't think of it. I will incorporate that into my code.

In your start() routine, it starts with:
if (!buttON[0]) { InitZero(0); return(0); }

This is inefficient in that when the button is "off", it runs "InitZero(0)" for every single tick. Given that it does a few "ArrayInitialize" commands of the zigzag buffers, that wastes CPU. (I ran MetaEditor -> Debug -> Start Profiling, and with the indicator "off", InitZero(0) is dominant).

(FYI, I also profiled the original 'Zigzag with Value bars-BT.mq4' that had been said to be slow, and the wasted CPU in OnChartEvent() was very large vs. the start() routine itself).

The biggest drawback that I see with your code is that when turning on the button, it needs a new tick to refresh the chart. This makes using it on weekends, or during slow market times a little bit of a hassle. One must "Refresh" to get it to update.

Better to run a single tick by OnChartEvent, *but* also force counted_bars=0 at the same time, because otherwise it won't update anything.

I helped another coder who had taken my example but tried to implement it into a VIX indicator that uses buffers, much like Zigzag does.
I also eliminated the unnecessary use of "init2()", and changed "start()", "init()", etc. to "OnCalculate()", "OnInit", etc.

It eliminates the use of "IndicatorCounted", since OnCalculate uses "prev_calculated" as the equivalent (AFAIK). However, when I was still using "start()", I used a variable "recalc" (set inside of OnChartEvent when button turned "on") to force a complete chart update.

Mine also has an entry to start the indy with the button "off" if desired, yet it retains the status when changing TF's.
This indicator doesn't create any objects, but if it did, see where I put "deleteCreatedObjects" for how I would implement it.

VIX indy attached. You, jeanlouis, or anyone else is welcome to critique and tell me how it could be better.

Can you try this out and let me know if any change is needed.
This was used to breakout strategy - that you open Pending Grid in layers.
FYI, this is script.

TD Sequential | Trading Strategy (Setup & Countdown)
I. Trading Strategy
Long Trades: Enter on the close if Close[i] > Close[i − 4]; Short Trades: Enter on the close if Close[i] < Close[i − 4]. =====
STRATEGY
SPECIFICATION PARAMETERS
TD Sequential: Setup
Long Trades: At least 9 consecutive closes are lower than the corresponding closes 4 trading days earlier (Close[i] < Close[i − 4]; Index: i ~ Current Bar). In the case where today’s close is equal or greater than the close 4 trading days before, the setup must begin again.
Short Trades: At least 9 consecutive closes are higher than the corresponding closes 4 trading days earlier (Close[i] > Close[i − 4]; Index: i ~ Current Bar). In the case where today’s close is equal or smaller than the close 4 trading days before, the setup must begin again.
Note: Each day in a look back period is a trading day.
TD Sequential: Intersection
Long Trades: The high of any day on or after the 8th day of the setup is greater than or equal to the low of any day 3 or more days earlier. This rule assures that prices are declining in an orderly fashion.
Short Trades: The low of any day on or after the 8th day of the setup is lower than or equal to the high of any day 3 or more days earlier. This rule assures that prices are advancing in an orderly fashion.
TD Sequential: Countdown
Long Trades: Once the setup and intersection are satisfied, we count the number of days in which the close is lower than the low 2 days earlier (Close[i] < Low[i − 2]; Index: i ~ Current Bar). The days that satisfy this requirement do not need to be in a row. When the countdown reaches 13, the countdown is completed and we get a buy signal unless one of the following conditions occurs: (a) A new setup is formed simultaneously as the countdown process is taking place; (b) There is a close that exceeds the highest intraday high that occurred during the setup stage.
Short Trades: Once the setup and intersection are satisfied, we count the number of days in which the close is higher than the high 2 days earlier (Close[i] > High[i − 2]; Index: i ~ Current Bar). The days that satisfy this requirement do not need to be in a row. When the countdown reaches 13, the countdown is completed and we get a sell signal unless one of the following conditions occurs: (a) A new setup is formed simultaneously as the countdown process is taking place; (b) There is a close that exceeds the lowest intraday low that occurred during the setup stage.
Sequential
Default Values:
Setup_Length = 9;
Setup_LookBack = 4;
Intersection_LookBack = 3;
Countdown_Length = 13;
Countdown_LookBack = 2;
Sensitivity Test:
Setup_Length = [5, 25], Step = 1;
Countdown_Length = [5, 25], Step = 1;
Filter: N/A

Entry: There are three methods of entry: (a) Enter on the close of the day on which the countdown is completed; (b) Long Trades: Enter on the close if Close[i] > Close[i − 4]; Short Trades: Enter on the close if Close[i] < Close[i − 4]; (c) Long Trades: Enter on the close if Close[i] > High[i − 2]; Short Trades: Enter on the close if Close[i] < Low[i − 2]. Index: i ~ Current Bar. In this test we apply the 2nd method.

THose cases are corner cases.. I think candles do not touch the curve in reality, it just looks that way.

yes no, your idea is still raw.. after some testing.. with different settings.. here is universal code for buttons
because here can make two or more buttons and ChartRedraw(0); can be generally deleted from code: it's raw/useless function..

Hi pips4life.. and then.. why didn't you remove buggy bit/blocks of code?

Quoting pips4life

if (id != CHARTEVENT_OBJECT_CLICK || sparam != buttonId) return;
yes, it's defense of fool. but i saw, that it doesn't work in some induks either, so i removed that line from latest version of Zigzag.

Quoting pips4life
In your start() routine, it starts with: if (!buttON[0]) { InitZero(0); return(0); }
This is inefficient in that when the button is "off", it runs "InitZero(0)" for every single tick.
yes, here you are right.. this is duplication: left it just in case...
because, i saw that standard function ObjectsDeleteAll(0,PREF,-1,-1); didn't work in some induks.
as result, i abandoned its use in favor for ALL_OBJ_DELETE();..
and if (!buttON[0]) { InitZero(0); return(0); } so it remained at beginning of start().
and in last ZigZag, i removed this line, replacing it with if (objSTATE(PrefBT)=="OFF") return(0);

i think, OnCalculate() is bad/raw/inconvenient function: it's not suitable for MT4.. therefore, i try don't use it in my indicators.
like positive cycle/loop for(i=0; i<limit; i++) there are also a lot of problems with it.. in future: when expanding functionality of induk..

instead of if(recalc) function, i usually use:
int limit=fmin(Bars-CountedBars-1+TFK,Bars-3-MAX); //+MAX*10*TFK
if (History>MAX) limit=fmin(History+MAX,Bars-3-MAX); //ALL_OBJ_DELETE(); } //limit+=MAX; comment(limit);
if (History<=MAX && NewTime!=iTime(NULL,1,0)) { limit=Bars-1; NewTime=iTime(NULL,1,0); } //Time[0]
this is universal bars counter: it is suitable for all types of indicators, except some graphical induks.
but this ZigZag has different bars counter: for example:
if (counted_bars==0)
{ limit=Bars-3-ExtDepth;
downloadhistory=true; }

VIX indy attached. You, jeanlouis, or anyone else is welcome to critique and tell me how it could be better.
what about #Soho_Williams_VIX_Fix_Price_v1.3 button WORKS..
1, in little things: it was possible to make everything more clean and beautiful. and use less lowest slash _ it's hard to read such code.
2, a lot of extra/useless settings for one button.. nevertheless, button is only application for induk.
3, is block adjustWindowHeight() useless function?
4, button is on main chart btn_Subwindow=0, and not in corresponding subwindow.. not every trader knows, how to calculate windows on chart.
5, when you install induk on chart, it is turned off.
6, when initializing induk, it turns off again.
7, when mass initializing or compiling files, will on/off button be reset? because you only have if(reason != REASON_CHARTCHANGE) ObjectDelete(buttonId);
8, you also have if (show_data) duplicated in lines 199 and 246.. why? or you could write if (!show_data) return; ?

when i talk about universality of code, it means, that code should be broken down on blocks in such way, that it can be easily copy/past into other induks..
that is, we construct new induk according principle of Lego constructor.
of course, universal code should work stably in all types of indicators: averages, oscillators, graphical...
here is example of simple/stable VIX without button - https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...8#post13804638

considering all above, i have question/suggestion for you:
if you have time, write universal code for 2 buttons.
for example, 2 oscillators in same subwindow: Stochastic and RSI.. or CCI and MACD.. let's see....
